Now I'm grateful for the strikes but come on. I really cannot believe the ROE that makes the air force drop leaflets and lets supposed civilians run away.
Unreal. Now of course they are claiming that none of the drivers were ISIS. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!
Just as in that earlier case, US jets on Saturday first conducted a low-flying 'show of force' over the trucks, then dropped leaflets telling drivers to flee.
The Pentagon says that while the trucks were being used to support ISIS, the drivers themselves were not thought to be jihadists.
