American warplanes hit an ISIS camp in Libya where foreign fighters had been engaged in advanced training. Apparently 49 ISIS members were killed.

After going through the rubble, it appears that there was two Serbian embassy workers being held there. They were being being negotiated for release by Ransom.

Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic told reporters Saturday that an embassy communications officer, Sladjana Stankovic, and a driver, Jovica Stepic, are believed to have died in the attack, according to media reports.. He said they had been held since November when their diplomatic convoy came under attack near Sabratha, the city where the Islamic State training base was located.

The only thing Obama seems to be any good at. Killing people.

Sadly other civilians will die in these attacks, that doesn't mean there shouldn't be attacks against ISIS.

You support the absurd idea that in combat only the combatents EVER die?

WW2 had about 1 civilian death for every military death as a example.

True, but if they cut off the ability for ISIS to finance themselves, there wouldn't be an ISIS. Just saying ... more ways than one to skin a cat and the cat isn't going to like any of 'em.

I thought only Russia killed civilians. At least that's what Kerry keeps saying with every Russian bombing over there.
