https://www.counterpunch.org/2015/08/18/jimmy-carters-blood-drenched-legacy/ Noam Chomsky said Jimmy "Carter was the least violent of American presidents but he did things that I think would certainly fall under Nuremberg provisions".
I couldn't find anything in the article to suggest Carter actively ordered anything that would be a war crime but there were what might be called "sins of omission" and indirect actions that lead to many deaths in Latin America, Africa and elsewhere.

What about using drones to murder people at will without a trial or anything? Isn't that a war crime?
What about using the drone to circle back and murder first responders? Isn't that a war crime?
Obama should have his peace prize rescinded.

Depends on your definition of war crimes.
If we’re going by the Geneva Conventions definition, then every president in US history.

Humor has it that the general's tweets scored higher than Trumps.

That’s why I said it depends on the definition.
That’s like saying “how did Cain murder Abel before murder was a thing?” If we’re forgiving the first 150 years of US presidents doing war crimes, then only the ones after the Geneva conventions count. So from Truman to Trump. But is anyone gonna suggest FDR didn’t commit war crimes? Japanese internment? Dresden? Etc

It provides that the president can send the U.S. Armed Forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by
Congress, "statutory authorization," or in case of "a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces."

Seems like it could be twisted pretty easily to get pesky Congress out of the way.

You don't need congressional approval to counter-attack terrorists. Iran's various military groups were labeled terrorists organizations last year. All of this clown posturing on twitter is just that.. disinformation/lies/posturing.
Nothing Trump did was Illegal. Obama did it even more and in fact changed the laws that the POTUS not only has authorization to kill foreign terrorists/organization at will without approval but also US citizens if they fall into that grouping :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdulrahman_al-Awlaki https://theintercept.com/2017/01/30/obama-killed-a-16-year-old-american-in-yemen-trump-just-killed-his-8-year-old-sister/
Other countries do the same and even worse. So, no there is no moral high ground. Moving right along.

Believe whatever you want essentially, I think the world is past personal belief. There's the people who have actionable influence and then there's the people that don't. I'm not sure, given the quality of info being consistently given to people outside actionable influence, anyone cares anymore about what people personally think or believe and whether its right or wrong. I guess talk about for pages while the agenda/order of things keeps going along uninterrupted.
