Our ‘mistakes’ only happen when we get tired of trying to fight a war clean. Same thing happened in Belgrade under President Clinton, when we started hitting schools and bridges to ‘bring Serbia to its knees’.
But the fun thing about being Democrat Globalist is that send the military off to kill civilians and win Nobel Peace Prizes at the same time.
We had no business being there in the first place.
“when we started hitting schools and bridges to ‘bring Serbia to its knees’.”
Bridges are legitimate targets.
Knowing many pilots that flew missions there, they never were tasked to hit schools or other protected sites. To be ordered to would be a violation of LOAC and they would be in prison. And they have to know what they are dropping on so the weaponeers can select the proper ordnance to be loaded.
So, “hits” on schools and such were the result of all those SAM missiles being fired (from civilian population centers) at our aircraft, missing, and coming back to earth (where did they think their missiles would come down. . .Minneapolis?)
