The revelations surrounding the U.S. “double-tap” boat strike are nothing short of horrifying. When lawmakers call it “one of the most troubling things” they have ever seen, we must confront the truth: this was not a mistake, but a deliberate act that violated every moral and legal boundary. Hitting a vessel once is tragic; hitting it again—after survivors surfaced, pleading for life—is indefensible.
Equally disturbing is the question no one can dodge: who gave the cold-blooded order to fire on migrants with no proof whatsoever that they were drug smugglers? Those responsible must be identified, fired, and held accountable. A government that kills first and invents justification later is drifting toward lawlessness.
America’s credibility is on the line. A nation that claims to champion human rights cannot allow its military to operate in the shadows, striking at the desperate and defenseless. Congress must demand a full, transparent investigation—not a sanitized internal review.
If we fail to act, we send a chilling message to the world and to ourselves: that the United States is abandoning its moral compass and becoming a government unrestrained by law.
