A Médecins sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) hospital was bombed by the US. Result, 12 dead staff members and 10 dead patients. The coordinates of the hospital had been communicated to the US forces before to avoid mistakes. The US admits the attack was a decision. MSF is now seeking an independent inquiry.

    I don't know if you are just ignorant or are actual apologists

    The only apologist I see is you, the one that is apologizing for ISIS and their need for a safe haven. Where are the safe havens they give the kurds and the turks?

      Tell that to the tens of thousands of innocent, unarmed, civilians being slaughtered by the same people being protected by these safe havens.

    No, You are being an apologist by lowering yourself to their level. Are you just trolling or really that stupid?
    A civilisation is judged by how it reacts when things get though, not by what it preaches when all is well.
