It's insane how dangerous to the world this Obama administration is. Civilian life means nothing to them.
Strikes against the Islamic State (also known as ISIS or ISIL) targets are often blocked due to an Obama administration policy to prevent civilian deaths and collateral damage, according to Rep. Ed Royce (R., Calif.), chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Any strategic benefits of Russia’s intervention have come at a bloody cost to civilians, with all local casualty recorders in agreement that 2,000 or more non-combatants have died,” said Chris Woods, director of monitoring organisation Airwars which collects and evaluates casualty reports.

US said that this was an attack that was planned for days. And that the US believe it was an ISIS strong hold
Its funny they are able to read my book from the space, but they've been mistaken about terrorist stronghold, about where to drop the bomb, accidentally kill 62 ?! US violates Syria's sovereignty for years, how stupid these soldiers are?

And Russia is guilty of the same exact thing.
But that's okay because they have permission...oh wait so does the US.
But yes you would be correct in that they do the same and maybe even worse with their use of dumb bombs.

Wow you posted a video of him agreeing to letting them bomb ISIS...so they do have the right to bomb them in Syria.
Again they aren't targeting Syrian Armed forces as agreed upon, and the fact this was an accident that happened after years of airstrikes shows they are following the guidelines set out by Syria for the US to use airstrikes against ISIS.
If the US wasn't following the rules set by Syria you would have more than just this unfortunate incident happening long before now.

Remember, just because America behaves badly, it does not automatically mean Russia is a shining beacon of light and hope by comparison.
They're both slaughtering civilians. They're both behaving badly.
