Would we go for that? Why should others? Why are we in Iraq after 16 years still?
Or if the Boston Bomber hid out in an elementary school and the place was leveled. Wouldn't happen here though. In the Middle East no problem. Because sand ni&&ers don't count as people. If they were, we'd have to respect their rights as individuals.

Why of course the poster is. Anyone who is against murdering innocent people has no business discussing that issue.

Educate yourself, look up blowback.

The military reports 101 civilians in the building were killed, and another four died in a nearby building. Thirty-six civilians remain unaccounted for. "

No wonder the War on Terror isn't working. We usual kill 100 civilians to kill 10 bad guys. I'd guess we just created 200 new Osama Bin Laden's with one misplaced bomb.
As a typical media liar, you left out the most important part of the story, ISIS deliberately put those civilian in the building to be sacrificed....liars are going to continue their lying for political negarious purposes.

I think people need to realize that although tragedy happens, American's targeting civilians is a ridiculous attempt at spin created by widespread media sensationalism and anti-american propaganda

The USA regularly exposes it's own troops to more danger (very restrictive rules of engagement) and spends SIGNIFICANTLY more money (smart bombs) in order to avoid civilian casualties. The only people actually targeting civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan are radical Muslim terrorists.

Exactly!

They also rigged explosives to the building. When the snipers were taken out, the explosives made sure the building where the civilians were would collapse.

ISIS at it finest...

Two points. First, it was the explosives stored there by the terrorist that killed the civilians. Second, just because the civilians weren't fighters doesn't make them innocent civilians. They may well have been supporters of ISIS in other ways. These are groups that don't wear uniforms. Not every Marine or Army soldier serves in a combat role. Take away their uniforms and only give them the tools of their military job then most of our military look civilian with only few actual fighters.

It is a fact. Are you going to deny it?
It kills the most heretical Muslims, from their viewpoint.


ISIS is made up of extremist Salafi Sunnis, some of whom are veterans of the Soviet Afghan invasion, the rebellion in Chechnya, and the US invasion of Iraq. Those veterans are men who have been fighters all their lives--they were never farmers or shopkeepers or husbands or fathers. They know nothing but fighting and don't know how to be peaceful, nor do they have a desire to be peaceful.


The Muslims they kill are, in their minds, heretics--Shiites, Alawites, Sufis--worse than infidels.


And that is what the ideology financed by Saudi Arabia teaches.

Thats IS propaganda. They deliberately use civilians as shields to create maximum civilian casualties for propaganda effects. Muslims who support the IS narrative already have sympathy for IS. How do you know these civilians were in fact not Yazidis who have been used as sex slaves by IS and now were ready to be sacrificed by IS? Another IS tactic is to kidnap Shia muslims who they despise and then use them as shields. Then they can claim that their "fellow muslims" got killed by evil infidels.
