So about that drone strike against "ISIS-K"...

Yeah, not so much after all.

Tl;Dr: They killed an aide worker and pretty much his entire family. The secondary damage came from a propane tank near the vehicle. They targeted a "white Toyota Corolla". Also, this was done with no intel on the ground, but this "mistake" was simply "not a success" and shouldn't be called a "massive failure", nor should it have any bearing on their "over the horizon" capability going forward.

Still no resignations from the General Officer ranks. Not Austin. Not Milley. Not Mckenzie...

What I don’t get, how is this not getting any sort of significant National or international news coverage. You’d think we would have other countries blasting us on the news for this. And that attention would force the media to talk about it.

Currently they're too busy focusing on the international crisis the Biden Administration has precipitated in the South China Sea. Did you hear that the French Ambassador to the U.S. has just been recalled?

“America is back" indeed!

Is there some alternate universe where this is NOT a war crime?
