> These ROE are almost certainly a war crime, but the US is special so it gets away with it.

Yes. What is and what is not a war crime is determined by the ICC in the Hague. The US does not recognize the authority of the ICC.

Per definition, no US soldier can literally ever commit a war crime.

So in that respect, they are not a whole lot different from US police. They can commit atrocities and get away with it.

It's like as if Germany decided to just not show up at Nuremberg.
