Don't waste your time, this video doesn't show anything about killing accidentally. War sucks and civilian casualties do happen but this says nothing. Taliban were known for dressing as females to get out of situations and using children as "cover".

What a disgusting attitude you have. Imagine if somebody invaded the US because they didn't like the Biden administration. In the process they kill your family, but don't worry, it's just civilian causalities during a war. Shit happens.

I adore such simple reductions for complex geopolitical matters. Yes, now everything is perfectly clear.

Imagine being this indoctrinated that 20 years of occupation is ok, and that these people (who live in that country btw) should be ok with their family members aimlessly dying

I'm not an American, but I'm pretty sure Mr bin Laden - with the cover and approval of the official Afghanistan (Taliban) government did indeed attack the USA because they didn't like their government.

They just bit off more than they could chew. [As, it turn out, did the USA]
