About 73 civilians killed by American airstrikes

[Deleted]

So, it has happened again. Dozens of civilian killed "accidently" by American bombs who targeted a Syrian village. How come there is so little outcry about this? Can we really expect muslim to stop bombing our civilians when we continously slaughter innocent muslims?

Of course, I deplore and condemn all forms of terrorists. The point is, it seems like killing muslims, banning them and disenfranchising them only make things worse.

Why do people shit on America's limited involvement in Syria but don't call out oRussia.

Hell, rush skipping ISIS targets to bomb inactive rebels. Russia has been indiscriminately killing civilians left and right.

It's not like this fact is uncredible, but sure, I got a source.

73 dead civilians isn't "limited". It's as many dead as the Nice attack.

But of course, Russia is doing just as bad.

Why do they bomb European cities when its Americans who kill their civilians?

It really is time for the US to completely remove itself from any other country but their own huge island over there and stop meddling in middle eastern affairs. They literally started all of this yet nobody seems to give a shit.

[wowaccounttom]

Apparently if governments mass murder it's ok.

no no

its only if its the world police... then its okay

Some European countries bomb as well. I think it is really simple, just as our extremists generalize all muslims (they're all rapists, criminals and bad), so too does extremist muslim generalize about white people (they're all murderers).

I think generalizing people isn't the way to go, as we clearly can see.

Begs the question why we haven't already abandoned everything over there. One might say "we" wrecked havoc and now we just want to gtfo, but honestly there is no way to fix the shit over there. At least we won't give them any more reason to attack us.

When you look at all the civil deaths taking place in the Syrian civil war, its is limited.

Thats not say that those 73 deaths were insignificant, I'm more concerned with people trying to paint the US at the big bad guy in the conflict where

a) The US isn't alone in those strikes
b) US involvement in the region is comparatively low
c) Other actors are responsible for far more civilian deaths.

Europe needs ME oil. Europe has historical ties to the ME, I guess that amounts for something. ME conflicts also find ways to spill over into European countries, refugees.

Oil is like the ultimate form of justification for everything we do in the middle eastern. It is really impossible to counter that argument though, since it IS the reason why we do what we do.

On the other hand, if we actually wanted to get the oil we could just carpet bomb the entire area and take it by force.

Yeah but then you need people to manage the oil wells and keep it all cheap. That's how all the all the ruthless dictators and parties that turned the ME upside down came into play.

Well, either it's the same airstrike that's been posted to the forums five times already or we've been busy.

Maybe check to see if this is really something happening again, or if it is rehashing earlier threads? This report:

Same day, same village, same time ... it looks like the same event.

Yes, but the idea that 73 people is considered a small involvement isn't really realistic.

You wouldn't, for example, call the terrorist attacks in Europe for "small involvement". Although in total, fewer Europeans might have died. When there's a lot of civilian casuality, you have a huge responsibility. That applies to all parties invlolved. Russia, France and USA as well.

I missed those, although I did briefly search for a similar topic. But thanks for the information.

They are the bad guy in the conflict. The fact there are other bad guys doesn't mean dismemebering children is ok.

You're kind of missing my point. This story keeps getting reposted because people want to throw the US under the bus. If you really want to make people away of civil deaths in Syria then there are better ways to go about doing it.

Europe needs ME oil.

Nord sea oil, Russian oil Europe do not need ME oil, we can import it from Venezuela if we realy want to. Compared with US Europe is hardened by very high environmental taxes, so transport the oil around the globe will not increasing the price significantly.
