The article and the title don't really match to me. They haven't confirmed he specifically authorized the second strike. They have left the door open for that to fall on Admiral Bradley.
to me the question falls to - was the vessel still floating, not destroyed with some cargo intact? From the NYT articles it seems so as the reporter highlights that the survivors contacted some of their colleagues, and that might intimate that a second strike was warranted. Again from the Times article, it does not appear as if Hegseth ordered a second strike with directions to kill everyone.

But as with media today, likely neither article is 100% right. The true answer likely falls somewhere in the middle, and you can never discount the "fog" normally attached to armed conflict

I think they were trying to split the difference by saying Hegseth authorized it (Karoline Leavitt confirmed) but Bradley ordered it.

Right, still feels misleading to me. Not like some articles, etc, but had opened it expecting something I hadn't heard. Not the worst article to title i've seen thats for sure lol, was just expecting more information based on the title.

LOL.. you are talking about dating your daughter if she wasn't your daughter.

That's a STUPID question that doesn't deserve the dignity of an answer.

Just more TDS nonsense from the unhinged.

I know what it is from and only an idiot would attribute it to LUSTING after his daughter.....

That said, I know you thrive on literally anything to confirm your bias. I find it amusing. Please continue. Three more years will go fast.

Maybe someone needs to wake up to what he has said over the years but hey I’m sure carrying water for a despot gets heavy, but you do you.
