DEATH IN INTERNATIONAL WATERS: A Spiritual and Moral Investigation into U.S. Maritime Killings

ree

**DEATH IN INTERNATIONAL WATERS:


A Spiritual and Moral Investigation into U.S. Maritime Killings**


By Rev. Paula Josephine Sadler


A hybrid investigative report, interview, remote viewing transcript, and prophetic moral analysis



---


I. INTRODUCTION — THE VIOLENCE NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT


In recent months, the United States has carried out a series of extrajudicial maritime attacks in international waters, sinking vessels and killing the people aboard them under the label of “narco-terrorism.” These operations have unfolded near Colombia, Venezuela, and across the Caribbean, far from public scrutiny and with almost no transparency.


The U.S. government has released no names, no identities, no evidence, and no acknowledgment of whether those killed were armed, dangerous, or even engaged in criminal activity. No due process. No maritime law tribunal. No international cooperation.


What has been provided is rhetoric: dehumanizing language, celebratory commentary, and political performance.


This investigation brings together:


public data about the U.S. drug crisis


environmental analysis


military and legal context


a full interview with Rev. Paula Sadler


her remote viewing session describing the spiritual and psychic impact of the killings


a prophetic moral analysis of what this violence truly represents


and prayers for the souls lost, their families, the waters, U.S. servicemembers, and the spiritually sick leadership responsible



The picture that emerges is not a drug-interdiction strategy.


It is a moral crisis, a political theater of violence, and a spiritual sickness spreading through a nation.

II. THE REALITY OF EXTRAJUDICIAL KILLINGS AT SEA

ree

No Legal Precedent


The United States has never killed domestic drug suspects without trial.


Not marijuana growers.

Not heroin dealers.

Not meth manufacturers.

Not fentanyl distributors.

Not cartel members arrested inside U.S. borders.


Inside the United States:


suspects are arrested


tried


processed under judicial oversight


and, in rare cases, sentenced through constitutional channels



But in international waters, where constitutional protections do not apply, the U.S. is now using explosive force instead of law.


No Due Process


These maritime killings:


involve no identification of victims


no warning


no reporting


no recovery of bodies


no trial


no accountability



International maritime law under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) requires:


verification of identity


boarding and inspection


lawful seizure


transfer of suspects to authorities



None of these steps were taken.


Why label them “terrorists”?


Because under U.S. military doctrine:


“terrorists” can be killed without a trial


“criminal suspects” cannot



Thus, fishermen, low-level smugglers, civilians, and possibly innocent boat operators have been rhetorically reclassified as:


“narco-terrorists.”


This language reduces human beings to target categories and removes moral and legal barriers to killing them.



---


III. THE DRUG PROBLEM: WHAT THE DATA ACTUALLY SHOWS


According to CDC and NIH data:


Over 80% of U.S. overdose deaths involve synthetic opioids, primarily fentanyl.


Most fentanyl enters through legal ports of entry, hidden in vehicles — not small fishing boats in Caribbean waters.


A significant portion of U.S. drugs are manufactured domestically, including methamphetamine.


The U.S. opioid crisis was created internally through pharmaceutical over-prescription.



Meanwhile:


Legal Drug Markets Generate Huge Revenue


Marijuana is legal in 24 states + Washington, D.C.


Alcohol is legal nationwide


Tobacco and vaping products are widely sold


Pharmaceuticals generate hundreds of billions annually



These industries cause:


cancer


heart disease


addiction


obesity


diabetes


and millions of deaths



Yet no CEOs are targeted by drones, no breweries are bombed, and no tobacco ships are sunk.


Environmental and Food Chemical Impacts


American illness statistics connected to diet, pollution, and chemicals dwarf drug fatalities:


Nearly 40% of Americans are obese


Over 37 million have diabetes


Childhood obesity has tripled since the 1970s


Microplastics are now in human blood


Processed food consumption is tied to cancer, heart disease, and autoimmune disorders



No missiles are launched at the corporations responsible.


The real sources of American sickness are domestic, industrial, and legal.



---


IV. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT — DEATH ON THE WATER, DEATH IN THE WATER


ree

When the U.S. military destroys a boat:


its fuel spills into the ocean


missile fragments scatter across the seabed


chemical debris sinks


toxic cargo enters marine ecosystems


unrecovered human remains become part of a trauma field



Environmental scientists warn that even small maritime explosions can:


kill coral


poison fish


disrupt marine migration


contaminate coastal communities



Yet no environmental impact statements have been issued.


This is pollution by militarism, not protection.



---


V. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS — A MANUFACTURED CONFLICT


Colombia, Venezuela, and Caribbean nations have long histories of:


fishing


small-vessel trade


coastal navigation



Maritime killings strain regional relationships.

Without evidence, these nations perceive U.S. violence as:


intimidation


aggression


political provocation



This aligns with Paula Sadler’s insight:


> “This is part of a bigger plan… psychological warfare… creating more tension between these countries and the United States.”

VI. INTERVIEW WITH REV. PAULA JOSEPHINE SADLER


(Edited only for clarity and flow)


Q: Paula, what do you see as the deeper problem here?

A:

“What I see is a vigilante style of governing. The message they want to send is: We will kill you. We don’t care who you are. We don’t have to justify what we’re doing. They don’t share details with the public, they don’t release names, and they deny due process. This is a sickness — a spiritual sickness.”



---


Q: You’ve compared this behavior to past atrocities. Why?

A:

“There is a dehumanization here. This is how people justify putting human beings into ovens, or lynching them, or enslaving them — by saying they are less than human. That is exactly what is happening with the term ‘narco-terrorist.’ It strips away identity and makes killing acceptable.”



---


Q: What contradictions do you see in U.S. drug policy?

A:

“How can a government claim to protect public health while legalizing alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, prescription narcotics, GMO foods, synthetic chemicals — all while killing people in international waters who may not even have drugs on board?


It’s insane. They profit from addiction here at home while murdering poor fishermen abroad.”



---


Q: What about the moral concerns for U.S. servicemembers?

A:

“There is a moral crisis among the military personnel involved. They know this is wrong. The spiritual injury is real. Their hearts are troubled. They are being ordered to violate conscience.”



---


Q: And what of the leadership?

A:

“Trump and Hegseth are laughing. They find pleasure in this. It is a sickness—a soul sickness. They are celebrating the destruction of human life. It is chilling.”

**VII. REMOTE VIEWING TRANSCRIPT

ree

“Voices from the Unnamed Dead”**


Presented in Paula’s first-person voice


> “Remote viewing Colombia, international waters, Venezuela, the Caribbean…

Some boats did not have drugs. Innocence has been killed.


I felt crying. So many tears. So many people have died.

The environment has been impacted.


I sensed tension between these countries and the United States.

This is part of a bigger plan. A subterfuge.


Trump and Hegseth are laughing.

They take pleasure in the death of others. It is a sickness.


Some boats were remotely driven and bombed for show.


I felt: ‘Please help us. We are innocent.’


There is drowning. Can’t breathe.

Sadness. Terror. Bewilderment.


This is creating a spiritual vortex in the water — a field of grief.

The spirits of the dead are not at rest.


This is a genocide of anonymity.


A message came: Openuenda.

Something must be opened, revealed.


The killings are trying to fix a problem that is not even the real problem.

This is a sickness of the soul.”





---


VIII. MORAL & SPIRITUAL ANALYSIS


Dehumanization is the mechanism by which atrocities are justified.


Trump and Hegseth’s rhetoric — laughing about human beings being eaten by alligators, drowned, blown apart, or treated as pests — is not politics. It is a psychological undoing of moral restraint.


This is the language used before:


genocides


pogroms


lynchings


ethnic cleansing


religious purges



The killings at sea function as a test:


Will the public tolerate the normalization of extrajudicial violence?


If so, the boundary shifts, and so does the ethical fabric of the nation.



---


IX. NAMING THE RESPONSIBLE PARTIES


In the interest of moral truth and spiritual accountability, this investigation names:


DONALD J. TRUMP


– as the political and rhetorical architect of the violence

– whose language encourages cruelty, death, and dehumanization


PETE HEGSETH


– whose celebratory commentary normalizes killing

– whose influence amplifies indifference to human suffering


THE WAR DEPARTMENT / DoD OPERATIVES INVOLVED


– for sanctioning lethal maritime strikes without due process

– for violating moral law, maritime law, and spiritual conscience


ALL WHO PARTICIPATE IN OR CONDONE THESE KILLINGS


– for becoming agents of a spiritual sickness that must be healed


This naming is not vengeance.

It is truth-telling, a step required for any repentance or healing.

X. PRAYERS FOR HEALING


ree

By Rev. Paula Josephine Sadler


1. Prayer for the Souls Lost at Sea


Holy One,

Receive the souls who died unnamed and unprotected.

Lift them out of terror, out of the cold deep,

Into Your warm and eternal Light.

Let every breath they lost return as peace.

Let every cry be heard.

Let no spirit remain wandering or alone.

We witness them.

We honor them.

We name their humanity.

Amen.



---


2. Prayer for the Families


Divine Comforter,

Hold the mothers, fathers, siblings, lovers, and children

who do not yet know where their loved ones have gone.

Surround them with mercy,

Guide them toward truth,

And fill the empty seat at their table with Your presence.

May justice one day speak their names.

Amen.



---


3. Prayer for the Waters and Marine Life


Spirit of Creation,

Heal the wounded sea.

Cleanse the waters poisoned by violence.

Protect the fish, coral, and all creatures who suffer

from the pollution of human cruelty.

Restore balance to the ocean

and peace to its depths.

Amen.



---


4. Prayer for Morally Injured U.S. Personnel


Source of Conscience,

Be with those who were ordered to do what their hearts knew was wrong.

Heal their spiritual injuries.

Release them from guilt, confusion, and grief.

Restore their inner compass

and return them to themselves.

Amen.



---


5. Prayer for the Healing of Trump, Hegseth, and the Sickened Leadership


Holy Light,

We pray for the healing of Donald Trump,

whose heart has hardened to the suffering of others.

We pray for Pete Hegseth,

whose joy in destruction reveals a wound of the soul.

We pray for every leader consumed by cruelty,

by bloodlust, by the appetite for domination.

Heal the sickness that delights in death.

Break the spell of dehumanization.

Return them to compassion,

if they will choose it.

Amen.



---


6. Prayer for the Healing of America’s Soul


ree

Divine Mother-Father God,

America is wounded.

Violence whispered into the water

echoes into our collective spirit.

We ask for healing.

We ask for awakening.

We ask for courage.

Let love rise where cruelty has taken root.

Let justice rise where secrecy has prevailed.

Let truth rise where lies have been planted.

Let peace rise where violence has been normalized.

May this nation remember its soul.

Amen.



---


XI. CLOSING REFLECTION — A CALL TO COLLECTIVE AWAKENING


The killings in international waters are not a drug policy.

They are a warning.


A warning that a government, if unchallenged, will normalize cruelty.

A warning that dehumanization is the seed of atrocity.

A warning that indifference is complicity.

A warning that leadership can become spiritually diseased.

A warning that a nation can lose its soul without realizing it.


But warnings are also invitations.


An invitation to awaken.

To reclaim morality.

To honor the sanctity of every human life.

To refuse the narrative of hate.

To speak for the voiceless.

To witness the dead.

To heal a grieving sea.

To heal a grieving people.


May this article be a beginning.


May truth rise.

May justice be restored.

May compassion return.

May healing flow like water across the earth.


Amen.


It is not easy to share these remote viewings, the truth can be unsettling. I wish it were not true. But we must look at the truth of the world. In my 30 plus years of spiritual work I have seen many truths that were so difficult to know and to share.


It may not seem possible to see what I have seen, but God comes to those who seek God. We can be witness to these atrocities, then affirm only God and only good and deny us that the sickness we are in those taking pleasure in killing and murderer for the healing that is needed now.


Thank you all for sharing, praying, and believing in my spiritual work. I love you and bless you all and this planet.
