I just find "legal avenues that wash military forces hands of breaking Geneva Convention rules of warfare" very improbably and just as improbable for many (if any) in the current military to need them because I doubt they would go along with orders that say "Hey don't worry, you can commit these actual war crimes we tell you to commit. We've got your back legally. Trust us."

I asked you personally because I wonder what someone who repeats this ludicrous idea thinks it actually refers to. I mean are we talking on-the-spot executions with no due process? Torture? Inhumane treatment of prisoners? Mutilation and experimentation? Attacking unarmed civilians? Rape? Pillaging?

These are the types of war crimes that the Geneva Conventions prohibit.

Not emotional. Slightly amused and definitely curious how anyone could take that statement seriously.
