What war crimes do the good guys in media commit against the so-called bad guys?

0:06.9

In Stargate Atlantis, the goodies capture a wraith and perform medical experiments on him.

0:13.2

A recent example I can think of is in Without Remorse,

0:16.4

where you're supposed to believe that Michael B. Jordan is making a heroic one-man stand

0:20.4

during a Black

0:21.3

Ops mission in Russia, until you realize the Russian police and soldiers are responding to what

0:25.8

appears to be a terror incident rather than the movie's villain blowing himself up, and have no

0:30.9

clue who's shooting at them. Is it really Tom Clancy IP without a few war crimes sprinkled

0:36.2

in under the guise of heroism.

0:38.1

Oddly enough, in Red Storm Rising, he has an American airman get captured,

No, I'm literally relaxing. I don't want to do evil stuff with you right now, Bubbles. But she keeps

1:16.5

insisting, so he's like, fine, okay, whatever. And then Blossom and Buttercup come and mess up Mojo

1:21.9

Jojo and Bubbles switches back to their side. Then they blame the situation on Mojo Jojo and call

1:27.2

him ugly. It was so screwed.

1:30.6

Star Wars The Clone Wars. Everything. When I remembered that General Grevis staged an attack on a

1:36.0

medical facility, I began to wonder if the writers had a checklist of all the Geneva Convention

1:39.8

rulings they could fit into the show. The Republic commits war atrocities all the time, and so do the rebels.

1:46.3

Star Wars is full of war crimes on all sides. In the Star Trek Discovery pilot, they booby-trap
