At Least 16 Killed At Afghan Hospital After U.S. Air Strike
Source: Reuters
Sat Oct 3, 2015 12:21pm EDT
An airstrike hit a hospital run by Medecins Sans Frontieres in the Afghan city of Kunduz on Saturday, killing at least 16 people in what the U.S. military called possible "collateral damage" in the battle to oust Taliban insurgents.
Frantic MSF staff phoned military officials at NATO in Kabul and Washington after the attack, and bombs continued to rain down near the medical facility for nearly an hour, one official from the aid group said.
At least 37 people were wounded and many patients and staff still missing, it added.
The U.S. military promised to investigate the incident, which could renew concerns over the use of its air power in the conflict.
We know that had this happened under Bush, McCain, or Romney, it would be a War Crime and DU would howl from the rafters that the President be frogmarched. Imagine my surprise and confusion, then, when I saw the responses to this news: (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10141223422)

3. Holy god, that is awful.
MSF does an excellent job under the hardest of conditions. If they won't go into an area, you know it's because conditions are beyond horrifying.
I am sickened to hear of this bombing.
But not enraged at 0bama, who bears responsibility for it?

The article I read stated that the Taliban were hiding in the hospital...Collateral Damage...those are the words you're looking for DUmmies.
The brave Jihadi freedom fighters(according to DUmmies) hide behind women, children and sick people.

15. THIS. Drs/Borders reported MASSES of wounded 9/28 & 9/29 so military targets that area 10/2
This just sucks.
I want our Congress to pull our military out of those countries and a total freeze on ALL military spending except paychecks and medical care & direct support.
Who put them there? Congress? Think again, precious. Still scanning.........

This is from a different post about the airstrike. There is a funny exchange between two primitives in the comments. Fred Sanders shows why having any kind of debate or argument with a leftist is a big waste of time.

He's a hypocrite, and their blood is on his hands.

8. The administration was notified of the location of the hospital during the bombing.
He allowed it to continue.

12. I asked nicely and still you will not share the logic? Have a nice day!

The cwydro primitive lays out what would be an open and shut case against any republican president at democrat underground and the Fred Sanders primitive just ignores it, snottily demands logic, and walks away acting like he has won the debate.
