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.

If you want to convince people that there is no war crime, you need to avoid showing that you're really a right wing Christian hating everyone who is not an old testament bible thumper.
When you can't keep things separate, you might as well argue that no war crime happened because Muslims or LGBT people aren't real people.

Well - anonymous cowards aren't real people, so we can torture you all we want.
