how do you think this moment would be marked in this long chapter of american drone strikes in afghanistan and elsewhere. in the same briefing you heard the american military talk about other drone strikes taking place they defended and said were justified and then the last statement there, john kirby said they wouldn t investigate the one that took place in kandahar. yeah. as you mention, afghans have already known that this killed civilians, the evening newscasts that i have been watching, that they watch there, the parents, mothers, wives of these civilians who were killed were interviewed. the mother talking about seeing the body parts of her toddler when she stepped outside of her house. this is something that the afghans have dealt with for many years now. drone strikes have killed civilian after civilian. yes, it killed militants as well. but unfortunately a lot of civilians have been killed through this method.
