A heated exchange erupted in Congress after Representative Jason Crow sharply criticized Admiral Brad Cooper over his refusal to directly condemn “no quarter” warfare orders during a hearing. “No quarter” declarations — meaning no prisoners will be taken — are banned under the Geneva Conventions and considered war crimes under international law.
Rep. Crow repeatedly pressed Admiral Cooper to acknowledge that such orders are illegal, warning that silence from senior military officials on basic laws of war raises serious concerns. The tense hearing has sparked debate over military accountability, international humanitarian law, and U.S. wartime conduct amid rising global tensions.
