No one had any issues when the US destroyed ‘civilian infrastructure’ in the opening of the Iraq War, Kosovo War or any other war/conflict but all of a sudden it is decried and bemoaned in this war/conflict?

As usual, comments by cranked are no more than vomit on a keyboard that some how gets mistaken as words.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite_bomb

Graphite bomb BLU-114/B.

A graphite bomb is intended to be a non-lethal weapon used to disable an electrical grid. The bomb works by spreading a dense cloud of extremely fine, chemically treated carbon filaments over air-insulated high voltage installations like transformers and power lines, causing short-circuits and subsequent disruption of the electricity supply in an area, a region or even an entire small country. The weapon is sometimes referred to as blackout bomb or as soft bomb because its direct effects are largely confined to the targeted electrical power facility, with minimal risk of immediate collateral damage.

You mean like the butterfly bomblets/mines that the Ukrainians are dropping?

So we use a blackout bomb to attack infrastructure? We also hit bridges, trains, airports, power stations with heavy bombs, we go for assassination Aristotles against national leaders.
Pretty much the same. The only ones we never went after that was was Isis for some odd reason.
