- GenerocUsername 11mo ago"...for their home countries to prosecute" Does not imply a belief of innocence.
- pempem 11mo agoIs vague enough to mean either thing which in and of itself is a red flag. "To face justice" is both a phrase this administration would use and is more concrete.

Do you really buy the line that they're being 'sent home to be prosecuted' by the same countries that are condemning these strikes? It seems far more likely that they're being sent home because they don't want to put them in front of a judge.
- wqaatwt 11mo agoThat’s a meaningless claim and statement unless they somehow compel their home countries to prosecute them
- pksebben 11mo ago> worthy of execution without due process Quite the fascist take you got there, buddy. edit: My bad. On closer reading I believe you might have said that tongue-in-cheek. Reading intent in text is hard.
