Love how you guys just spout “disobey illegal orders” like it means anything It’s not up to the individual enlisted member to determine that. Bro isn’t going to risk a court martial bc some online leftist would think it’s cool

Cool, following illegal rules because you were “just doing your job” is still a war crime

Did we learn nothing from Nuremberg? The whole “i was just following orders” shit isn’t a justification

Little known fact apparently but it actually is up to the individual soldier to disobey any order they believe is illegal!

Well ig it’ll depend on each service members willingness to murder civilians. We’ll have to see what happens.

The 34 people found in trouble for the entire Holocaust? Pretty sure there were more Nazis than that.

You probably can’t even coherently defend a war crime outside of “an armed operation I personally disagree with”

My brother in christ, why would I “defend a war crime” when I’m quite literally arguing against them by saying that jus following someone else’s order doesn’t absolve you from them? Maybe you gotta learn to be coherent 💀

They don't have to because war crimes are explicitly spelled out and every service member is educated on them.
