Are you really gonna criticize a drone strike. EVERY president who has ever used drone strikes, missiles or any any type of explosives against the enemy is gonna have civilian casualties. Unless we hit a caravan of terrorists out in the middle of the barren desert, your gonna have innocent people caught in the cross-fire. That is just the nature of the beast. No matter how much recon you do, someone innocent will probably be in the wrong place at the wrong time. You guys realize these are weapons that are designed to take out anything in the vicinity, right? Casualties almost always happen, they just doesn't get reported that much, because it makes us look bad as a country. Due to the fact that we are in such a divided nation though, each party is looking to make the other look bad at every opportunity, even if that means making the entire nation look incompetent. That's why this stuff is in the news now. It's nothing new, it's just something that people didn't think about, because it normally isn't publicized although it's gonna be much more commonplace as the divide grows between the extreme left and extreme right. Ever hear of the Mỹ Lai massacre? It was reported very widely. It cost a lot of civilian lives and ruined the careers of several military personnel. You can read about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%E1%BB%B9_Lai_massacre I know you can't always avoid civilian casualties but, we're supposed to have the best intel in the world and have the most accurate weapons int the world that can literally ring your doorbell and take you out. Clinton blew up a factory that produced medicine just so he could look tough. Now Bush, he may have started retaliation against the terrorist but at least he defined clear objectives. Obama, well, he didn't do crap except release terrorist from Gitmo that went right back to the battle field to kill American. Trump, well, at least he de-escalated things but showed the world that, if you mess with the best, you'll die like the rest. Now we have Biden. In a short 8 months he has totally screwed up everything. Lets Face it... Democrats may know how to start a war, but they sure as hell don't know what's needed to be done to win a war. They just do things irrationally and without thinking surrounded by Yes Men Generals that they appointed so.... There will be MAJOR screw ups with them calling the shot. </rant> ![]() |
