    SIGNATURE STRIKE -they fired on the white car target. Not the person

    Signature strikes must be banned by Congress

    That was Obama. but it happened for the same reason. They were both ( Pakistan and Yemen)

    Signature strikes
    a military attack by a drone or drones in which people are targeted because their activities are believed to fit a particular behavioral profile, though their individual identities are unknown.

Next time they may actually be correct.
    They had info a "white car" was prepping a suicide attack ( car bomber)
    They found the white car. they thought the water bottles were explosives

    IOWs they targeted the behavior and not the identity

    collateral damage is common when using drones in or near cities, has happened many times since the Gulf War in many countries under various presidents

    War is hell. Best not to start one.

    In this case, it was blood lust by our intelligence, and they goofed. Now they have to find actually enemies to exact revenge against.
    The USA needs to take responsibility for radicalizing many who have been labeled as terrorists around the globe. This family killed today just might have some young nephews or other relatives who now have all the moral justification in the world to hate the USA.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    lies. Milley and the admin claimed "secondary explosions" when they had no evidence.
    They said they knew the target, when asked how ( Kirby) wouldn't say

    The NYTimes gave the "unvarnished truth ( to their credit) while the Pentagon continued the big lie
    until they couldn't anymore

    Do you really believe this is an isolated incident? And if it was the Taliban that accidentally blew up an American family, it would surely be called a terrorist attack.
