It's extremely rare that Americans actually get to SEE the victims of the US government's foreign policy. Both the US government and their prostitutes in the media take great care to present a sanitized, glorified version of war that the average American is capable of stomaching and financing with their taxes. So, my fellow Americans, please take a good look at her face before you go on with the rest of your day. See what this "collateral damage" actually looks like in reality and ask yourself if that is how a moral and courageous country would conduct itself.
So bombing innocent children is okay because they have the misfortune of living near ISIS operatives?
Granny says, "Dat's right - is all ISIS' fault - dey tricked us into it... Airstrike chain reaction led to over 100 civilian deaths in Mosul May 25, 2017 -- U.S. Central Command on Thursday said more than 100 Iraqi civilians in Mosul died in March after a U.S.-led coalition airstrike targeting two Islamic State snipers detonated other explosives.

That's because the US government covers up their murderous terrorism, lies about it when people find out then blame ISIS. The US government is the worst terrorist group on this planet.
I don't know if your comments are sarcasm or not, but high lighting the lie "The GBU-38 is designed to take out enemy combatants on roof tops, not collapse entire structures." and the lie that secondary explosives cause the collapse. Here are videos of the damage that the GBU-38 does: If you want to take out snipers on rooftops you use small standard missiles, not 500lb bombs
Regretful, not unexpected. As any other country - USA uses media as, among other uses, an instrument of propaganda.
"War is a racket"-Smidley Butler. We've armed these foreign antagonists, those antagonists in turn bomb innocent populations here which are understandably unacceptable from our POV, but ends up having us engage in 'military missions' that lead to tragedies like these, and the whole thing is a vicious cycle. I'll tell the entire ME the same thing: If we got a verifiable treaty that they would stop terrorizing Western countries, to disarm and disband their violent extremist groups, I'd pull out of the entire ME.
That in bold is the key to me but I differ in that I don't need a treaty it's futile for the governments of Muslim nations to try and disband violent Islamists. Yes have governments help.. But I.. have been studying history and its the moderate Muslims themselves who keep the radical violent ones in check and under control for hundreds of years. It is the Wests meddling and regime change for pick any reasons you want that disrupted normal Muslims lives so much that they too are victims of these same Islamist scum. The picture of the child is sad but it pales in comparison by videos I've seen.. Videos of Islamists killing every man woman and child in villages.. Leaving them laying in the streets together in pools of blood. Right now. Now we have to help those people drive the Islamist devils back into the desert or kill them. Kill them and bury each and everyone with a pig and tweet the pictures to them. Let em Allah Ahkbar that. We need to break their will. Our fault and we need to help them.
Only a war on the territory of the United States can turn moral freaks into normal people. Without it, US barbarians will continue to destroy countries, kill millions and loud fart about freedom and democracy.
With all due respect. I have always treated your opinions with respect but this... You have lost any and all credibility. Sheer and utter lunacy. At least wait until we have migrated to another planet before you bring about the end of the world please? I'll be chief engineer on our starship, you can be anything but navigator... Since we'd surely be lost in space. Captain maybe?
Yeah, it's a shame that people get hurt in assaults. The assault is also necessary, unless you want ISIS to hold Mosul indefinitely. Glad he was able to save her.
And this from RT because you're not going to find it on the fake news sites: Syria urges UN to immediately halt US coalition strikes, which ‘spreads chaos & benefits terrorists’ after another 35 civilians were killed. These strikes help terrorist launch attacks against government troops. One has to wonder if the killing of civilians is not intentional, and not to excuse the US, but exactly what countries are in the coalition?
