Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré rips Hegseth’s rhetoric: could lead to ‘torture or dying’ for U.S. troops
Amid a U.S. search and rescue mission in Iran following the shoot-down of an F-15E fighter jet, Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré displays on feedback from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth about giving “no quarter” to U.S. enemies. Honoré warns Hegseth’s rule could have a “direct impact” on how Iranians deal with American service members, including that this sort of rhetoric is “a violation of our rules of war.”
