More Innocent Kids Exploded



This is so sad. I love where I live and I'm fucking grateful that I wasn't raised in a third world country, but shit like this makes me want to move far away. Funny, I never heard about this on any local/national news channels.
 
White House exempts Syria airstrikes from tight standards on civilian deaths - Yahoo News


My fav part of the article:

Addressing the subject last year in a speech at the National Defense University, Obama acknowledged for the first time that U.S. strikes have resulted in civilian casualties, adding: “For me and those in my chain of command, those deaths will haunt us as long as we live.”

"Because the American people are now questioning the logic, necessity, and morality of our war efforts more than ever, I need to address any and all concerns that I may just be an empty, sociopathic P&R dummy for the REAL rulers of this country. Look at me! I'm a real human too with real emotions! I feel guilt about innocent people dying, just like you would! Too bad this war effort is an uncontrollable force of nature that can't be stopped, otherwise I would totally act upon my guilt and bring the troops back." :(
