Exit wounds - "It was a mistake."

Journal by fustakrakich

Oops!

But "He said he is 'fully responsible for this strike and the tragic outcome.'"

"We apologize, and we will endeavor to learn from this horrible mistake," another guy said. I'm sure they will.. uh huh

But hey! "at least one of those people that were killed was an ISIS facilitator.". Not even, eh?

The 10 dead were all members of the same extended family, relatives told NBC News, and included the seven children. Some were as young as 2 and 3.

Milley said "Trump is nuts", no wait, I'm sorry, that's a misquote, what he really said was, "... at this point, we think the procedures were correctly followed, and it was a righteous strike." (from "over the horizon")

Way to go, guys!

And the press! There's speculation the story was delayed/ignored for some time...

EDIT:
Hmm, The Silence of the Dems is so deafening! *Can't Touch This!*

EDIT 2:
AOC - democrat socialist? Hardly! democrat socialite..

    Global South is a politically correct replacement for Third World, but if you look at the map it makes sense. Afghanistan and the other Global South countries are below most of the United States and Europe.

    I use "developing world" and "developed world". "Global South" is just a weak observation of a geographical quirk. "Developing world" also is an acknowledgement of what I think will be the biggest story of the 21st Century - the elevation of almost all of humanity to developed world status - being on or near the cutting edge of human civilization.

    By the end of the century, I think who is on top versus not will depend on things like legal and cultural infrastructure rather than on raw wealth or historical advantages like being a superpower 80 years ago.
