    Yes, American soldiers would never do such things. They are distributing bananas and chocolate during war times to POW, have a lot of occasions to do so during the last decades.

      Side note: The American army unofficially encourages their combat arms branch soldiers to shoot wounded combatants during combat and to double-tap the wounded and the dead while assaulting through killzones so they don’t have to worry about ‘bullshit rules’ relating to capturing POWs including ‘bullshit’ things such as delivering life-saving first aid or the “hassle” of transporting them to a location to properly process them as POWs under the international rules of war.

      What do American soldiers have to do with this? That is not even a good whataboutism.
