Well, it sounded good when the “media” trumpeted it to the ignorant masses sitting in front of their TVs like it was 1984.

Totally unacceptable. This is the second drone strike(that we know of) that targeted innocent people. Shameful.

more collateral damage from Joey B’s disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. we do not have sufficient eyes/ears on the ground in the area - as the generals told him would be the case. the man simply has made every step a misstep. quite the talent.

Sigh. Sorry about that, Mr Misto.

What does anyone expect when the people running the military, the economy, the border, etc are the same people telling us men can have periods?

Scary times.

It’s a failing grade for military and their commander in chief.
Its endless damage by a fool in charge.

We’ve evolved from blowing up weddings to blowing up guys tending their sheep.

How much are we spending on this crap?

Side note about the Lefty American media:

Omar Nezhat , Meg Kelly , Alex Horton and Imogen Piper

There was a time when one writer got the credit, then two, then three, and now four? Is this a full employment program being run by the WaPo?

They killed Alvin Qaida Sr. Easy mistake. The Marcus Allen who owned the account cited by Rep. Sanchez yesterday was also a victim of that same drone strike, credible reports say!

It’s probably an equity thing. One of them wrote the article. One of them found a related picture. One made the coffee. And the last one went out for donuts.

But under woke equity theory, everyone must get equal credit. After all, we must not judge the writer as being any more important than the donut person.
