    Someone better let the President know he's threatening war crimes. - 52 sites for purely symbolic reasons would be a war crime. - Striking cultural sites without military necessity would be a war crime - Striking in revenge is a war crime - Targeting civilians is a war crime

        Generak Mattis had his chance but decided that selling a book was far more important to his bank account than saving our Republic.
