> ACTUAL war crime was the immediate refusal to render any aid to the sunken sailors. How many times do I have to repeat that line?

Where possible. That restriction doesn't seem to have applied to submarines since WWII.

Repetition doesn't make right.

> ALONE and UNARMED

Doesn't change that it's a warship. Like, should warships from now on just say they aren't armed, then go off an engage in military operations and complain about war crimes afterwards?

I'll add this: the way you've argued this has taken me from being sceptical about this being a war crime to feeling confident it is not.
