As I've often noted we killed thousands of innocent people and we call others the terrorists. We killed thousands of innocent people and no one can even provide and sort of justification. It's funny that while a very large percentage of people will defend this it's those who crow the loudest about how the government is untrustworthy that will just buy their lies here.
The trove of documents—the military’s own confidential assessments of more than 1,300 reports of civilian casualties, obtained by The New York Times—lays bare how the air war has been marked by deeply flawed intelligence, rushed and often imprecise targeting, and the deaths of thousands of civilians, many of them children, a sharp contrast to the American government’s image of war waged by all-seeing drones and precision bombs.
The documents show, too, that despite the Pentagon’s highly codified system for examining civilian casualties, pledges of transparency and accountability have given way to opacity and impunity.
Pro-life my ass.
U.S. Drone Strikes Are Even Worse Than We Knew
