The Military is going to start violating the laws of war, and start shooting unarmed civilians? Mothers with babies?

Explain these "laws of war" or is that merely a catch phrase out of a 'rat playbook to emphasize that our military is a bunch of "baby killers".

“Explain these “laws of war””

The Geneva and Hague Conventions, and the US Uniform Code of Military Conduct, mainly.

“Explain these “laws of war””

A simple google search reveals the wikipedia article as its first result - which explains distinction and proportionality.

In the USA, the Military is specifically restricted from Law Enforcement functions by the Posse Comitatus Act.
