That's horrible. Can we blame this on Russia somehow?

Russia is actually doing good things for the cause against Syria. America needs to stop pigeonholing Russia into the position of the bad guy.

This shows that Israel along with the rest of the world are starting to realise that American media just hates Russia for being Russia, not for their actions.

Has anyone seen any social media fire storm or protests about the US doing this? I remember when Israel was reported to have done something similar during the recent Israel Gaza war there was a social outcry to have Israel tried for warcrimes by the UN. There was worldwide protesting against Israel. Huge media coverage.

Where is the media? Where are those protesters now? Why don't they care now?

They can't get many likes. Its easier to share a Bernie sanders post for the social brownie points than to focus in on real issues.

This goes against humanitarian laws/codes and I surely hope someone goes on trial for this. There is no way we can sweep these kinds of things under the rug.

Why are we still over there in the first place? Its a god damn modern-day Vietnam.

Israel has a population of 8 million
USA has a population of 318 million.

Which country will be tried easier for war crimes?
