The amount of times Republicans said “we killed terrorists” during the congressional hearing, without even once considering that the 53 fatalities from an indiscriminate air strike likely included innocent civilians, is revolting.
You’ve also just cemented the idea that the West is evil in the families and friends of those 52 innocent people, thereby ensuring a steady supply of fresh new “terrorists”.
yeah that’s because that’s not what happened, there were multiple targets, not just one. that signal chat directly mentions “mutliple targets”, it could be 5 it could be 15. if goldberg stayed in this chat maybe we’d know how many exactly
In the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the US labeled any “military aged male” casualty as an “enemy combatant” even if there was absolutely zero evidence they were.

With US track record a majority if not all of those 53 people were civilians
This is why the US and Israel get along so famously 👍
If you kill 1 terrorist and 52 civilians, um no you didn’t, they were all terrorists. Problem solved.

And the global war on terror continues forever, and “defense” budgets increase forever. All as planned.
Killing 52 civilians to get one terrorist seems like a bit of a fuck up though.

As proven by the fact that the young men related to those 52 people all joined terrorist organizations after the fact.
