Looks like the war with Iran is cooking off

[David64]

First off, an X post is not an order - it's just more bluster and bullshit meant for public consumption, not in the chain of command. I've seen no confirmation that any "no quarters" orders have actually been given. The military does not take it's orders from X posts.

With that said, I personally would not give any quarter, with or without an order. An enemy enters my sight picture, BANG! that enemy is no more. Pretty simple. I don't need orders to figure out the goal of war is to kill off the enemy until he stops whatever it is he's doing that I find objectionable.

Also, there has been a post from Trump that actually gives quarter, although it too is not a bona fide order. The post gives quarter by allowing the enemy to flee the battlefield to Masshad, where they will not, and have not been, struck. So, the CiC has countermanded Hegseth regarding quarter, at least as far as X bluster goes.

Now, in a strange twist, Masshad is actually in the Khorasan area, and Khorasan is nominally under ISIS control... and ISIS don't much care for the "takfir" Islamic regime in Tehran, so it remains to be seen just how that will play out.
 I suspect that it will eventually result in a race between ISIS and the Iranian People to finish off the regime once they are concentrated in Masshad.

So, yeah, this is just more smoke and mirrors being fed out into the propagandasphere. Like Hegseths alleged "war on Catholics", it's just a lot of obscuring smoke where there is no actual fire.

Disclaimer: I am not a JAG officer. I would not BE a JAG officer even if ever given the chance. I would avoid JAG officers like the plague. A JAG officer is a lawyer, and like most lawyers and all prosecuting attorneys, their entire reason for existence is to put a person behind bars regardless of guilt or innocence. Lawyers do not deal in "Truth", they deal in whatever argument is most likely to succeed in their chosen goal.

The source is video from pentagon ,  the X post are just referring to the original source , it`s verified statement from secretary of war .

It is very stupid statement , as the enemy know knows it is no rules game then, so any American prisoners if there will be is most likely equally treated , executed or worse , tortured and then killed , imagine women soldiers getting raped....

It`s not what professional army do .  The red army for example raped women all the way in Germany , because the upper staff expressed it`s all fine . Things go out of hand too easely then.

It's BEEN a no rules game...or did you miss all those beheadings ? Did you think Iran's military were playing by some Marquess of Queensberry rules ?
