Things are about to get very proportional
Hearing this phrase repeated ad nauseam these past fee days is pretty fucked up.
Because we all know many innocent people are going to get caught up in such an unproportional attack.
Its like you're all salivating for death.
to reduce the risk of inadvertently hitting civilians
Something the US is as famous as Israel for.
It’s not a foregone conclusion civilians will die. For example, none were killed last month when the US drone struck the PMF militias. I will be upset by and do not condone any civilian getting killed. No matter what happens, it will be the result of Pro-Iranian militias killing US forces when they had no need to.
They had no need to?
USA is a country in North America, they are the one who station soldiers in another continent for no reason and continue to work with groups in the region to ensure instability. They should expect to be attacked.
Here an example where USA and Iran worked together against ISIS

"The battle of Makhmour represented another important milestone in the war against ISIS: It was the place where two foreign military interventions began. One was directed by the U.S.-led international coalition, which provided air support and later, heavy weaponry. The other, in the form of ammunition, training, and intelligence support, came from Iran. Over the course of a few short days that August, coalition airstrikes hit ISIS positions in the parched desert hills near Makhmour, leveling the playing field between the heavily armed extremists and the Kurdish fighters."
assholes should stop fucking around if they don't want to find out
I understand the need for a retaliatory strike.
I don’t understand the need to meme about what is going to be a large civilian death toll or ‘collateral damage’ as you rephrased it as.
Be better.
it sounds like you already know how many civilians will be killed.. do you have them lined up in front of your military radar installations?
No, Im just aware of US military history.
Like how you reduced the risks in Iraq and Afghanistan, or Vietnam or Cambodia, etc.
i'm sure you're a dedicated internet forum expert on that and lots of US foreign policy
Personal attacks wont change what is said.
If thats all you have left to contribute, I’ll be ending my replies now.
you haven't actually said anything yet
First I've ever heard that term - what do you mean by hex code? Is this a logistics thing?
