The United States military has committed yet another war crime by striking a civilian vessel allegedly trafficking drugs toward the U.S. So far, Washington has not provided any evidence showing the boats attacked were actually carrying any drugs.
Unlike all other strikes, this latest one reportedly resulted in at least some crew members surviving, according to an unnamed U.S. official cited by Reuters, and reported by Natural News. The Department of War has yet to confirm the incident officially, while critics question the legality and motives behind the escalating campaign, which has already killed at least 27 people.

The current administration is getting increasingly violent and adding troops and military equipment to the Caribbean. U.S. ruler Donald Trump has also confirmed that the Central Intelligene Agency is also operating in Venezuela. This has fueled speculation that the U.S. is pursuing broader geopolitical objectives, similar to past interventions in Latin America justified under certain pretenses.
It could be possible that the U.S. ruling class is attempting to overthrow Nicolas Maduro.

“The U.S. is acting as judge, jury and executioner without transparency,” said one human rights advocate, speaking anonymously due to fear of retaliation. “If these were truly drug interdiction operations, why is there no effort to detain suspects or present evidence?”
Could the presence of surviors introduce a problem for the U.S. military? Or will they conviently claim what the ruling class wants the official narrative to be in order to escape the war crimes.
“If survivors come forward, we may finally get answers about who was really on these boats and whether the U.S. is violating international law,” said a legal analyst familiar with maritime conflict.
As pressure mounts for accountability, the U.S. continues to ramp up its military presence pushing closer to yet another war.
