I've not even hit the tip of the iceberg here, but I'm quite sure you get the general idea. NATO, US forces are all being portrayed as the 'Bad Guys' by the media in almost every story written these days about them. It doesnt matter if they were defending themselves. It doesn't matter if the attackers deliberately targeted civilians, or hid among them knowing our reaction. All that matters is that we took innocent lives as well, so the whole deal is our fault, according to the media.
Thats Bullshit. Complete, total bull. Welcome to war, people die. Its regrettable, but true to the nature of the thing. If you think this is bad, check out all of this...

In the War of 1812, the British razed washington.

In the Beginning, Cain killed his brother Abel.
If you think the present is bad, take off the rosy blinders of 'enlightenment' and view the true grit of the world before now. Take a look at history.
Sixty, a hundred years ago, you kill a farmer's cow, you got a free lunch and a good laugh, and the farmer just got mad.
Now, you get judicial action, and the farmer gets a hundred thousand.
The world is a very different place, but people need to realize that things aren't going to always entirely change. Not as long as there are cowards who refuse to come out from behind the innocents and fight on open ground, who hide and cower in a family's home, who attach themselves to the civilians knowing that if we go for them, we'll likely accidentally injure those around them as well.
This is war, and the media needs to stop painting it like it is not. This is no 'police brutality.' This is the real deal. And they want the media just as dead as they want us...just not quite yet, not while they're working for the real Bad Guys.
