I first saw this today after listening to the podcast. I am still somewhat suffering just from the utter horror of this video, so please bear in mind this is not something to watch casually. I still need to process how to respond, other than holy fuck, the US military is pure evil
Some redditor called me told me that the army did an investigation into this and concluded that it was alright. So you guys need to chill big time.
Don't you understand, they thought the camera was a MANPAD, so they had to strafe the ambulance that came to rescue them. And if they didn't want children murdered why did they put them where accredited western reporters were filming a documentary with US knowledge, it's asking to be strafed.
This part is very important, though, because this is alright as far as the Army is concerned. This is where hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqis came from - this attitude, these rules of engagement.
