Human Rights Groups: US airstrikes have killed more than 100 innocent Syrians.

[stomination]

Thanks Obama!... for actually having so little number of innocent deaths in the middle of a war-zone.

Yea obama thanks a lot for being the lucky president with Drone warfare.

I seem to recall asking you to be specific about the years you're arbitrarily defining the war in Iraq as "over".

I made a very specific point that you are just trying to detract from with all this fake sort of whatever it is.

The point was, Iraq was more capable militarily when we left than when we arrived. Nobody denies that. Like, literally nobody has ever even said that out loud, that I have ever heard.

Now you got me bogged down on this off shoot of the topic, and because your recollection is so far off the mark, here I am defending your rebuttals that aren't even part of my point. Thanks for wasting more of my time I could have spent having an actual discussion.

Here is what you want, guy. Read up on the facts and then get back to us. The war was not over the day we took the palace, and not a single human alive, other than you, thinks that it was.

Are you seriously trying to compare Germany post war to Iraq post war? There are ethnic issues at play in Iraq. Please just stop.

There were no ethnic issues in Germany in WW2? Might want to tell that to Elie Wiesel.

While i dislike that some soldiers did this...and wasn't punished well enough i just have to say this......



I wonder how many got raped after the americans left by the terrorist.

A race to the bottom isn't really the nicest thing ever.

Listen to this guy trying to be smart.
US invasion led to exactly what the analysis predicted. Chaos and civil war. You're arguing that did not happen. You're arguing that the invasion of Iraq brought order and peace till you left. That is FACTUALLY false. As in, numbers of sectarian attacks and deaths increased drastically after the invasion. As the analysis from countries like Israel and Saudi Arabia predicted.
So please. Continue to engage in your disgusting apologetic behavior but not with me.

[Aeula]

Acceptable.

If we backed off every time we saw a civilian near a military target we'd never get anything done.

[Adam Jensen]

It will get a lot higher if Donald "we'll bomb the shit out if them, I don't care what is in our way" Dump gets in office.

On top of "killing their families."

[Santti]

Exactly.

President Obama has relied too heavily on drone strikes that seemingly are inaccurate and have caused more death to civilians.

When is the blood shed from umanned drone strikes going to stop?

I hope President Obama rethinks his strategy after the death of 85 innocent women and children in Syria.

Blood is on his hands.

I'm curious, is it actually Obama who does all these moves? I know he is Commander-In-Chief, but surely he is doing what his generals and other such officials suggest him to do? I'm just imagining someone like, say, Bernie Sanders who's knowledge of warfare comes from movies or when he was in the army, which was probably during ww2 or something. And that is assuming he was in the army in the first place.

[zenkai]

No, I'm suggesting people are more likely to join an extremist group if they see it as a way to strike back against a target that has caused them some sort of personal loss or pain.

If those people don't blame ISIS for their problems, then they would have joined regardless

Dajil is our Middle East expert.

Tell us about how Putin got with Russia's long term ally Assad the Shiite to terrorize the Sunni Syrians and send them flooding into Europe as refugees. This was done in retaliation for the sanctions on Ukraine and Crimea. Europe was destabilized and Britain left the union.

I don't think I have anything else to add. Just quoting this so we can all see.

[Very Tired]

This is actually good news.

Get out the Mission Accomplished Banner boys!

[IIamaKing]

Am I supposed to react like 100 is a lot in this context? Because it isnt.

[Duravian]

84 dead, 303 injured, actually.

Oh there we go. Yeah, I was just spitballing old numbers. Thanks

[Jimmy Woods]

So, 100 Syrians killed in a war zone. No big deal it's a war zone. 4 people die in Benghazi "hang her!" "she's a traitor!". Lulz

Also, why hasn't "All Lives Matter" released a statement condemning these drone strikes yet?

Putin was KGB now FSB. Assad the Shiite President of Syria was trying to put down a rebellion of Sunni Syrians, the Sunnis out numbering the Shiites in Syria 8 to 1. Europe put sanctions on Russia for Ukraine and Crimea. Putin wanted revenge. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see how Putin's and Assad's goals became similar. Putin had Assad terrorize the Sunnis, sending them fleeing into Europe as refugees. Europe was destabilized.

KGB people don't leave paper trails.

This is the guy that puts sarcastic comments on an analysis of the situation that was created throughout the years of post invasion iraq by scholars and reporters.
It's not the first time he actually states this. He actually DOES believe the refugee crisis was handcrafted by Putin and Assad to destabilise Europe.
I mean... not even the awareness necessary to realise how ridiculous this sounds.

[Ulmita]

Hahaha yeah, he is fucking funny

[Deleted]

It's like the third time he says that.
