Also: Whose Army doctors refused to treat them? 
It's their version of the concentration camp guards all being "not responsible" for the killings.
These soldiers wanted the children to be treated, but the doctors couldn't. The doctors no doubt couldn't because they needed orders from command, and command didn't issue the order because the soldiers didn't follow proper protocol. It's no one's fault, it just was a thing that happened, we certainly shouldn't blame the military that travelled to the other side of the world and attacked those children in the first place, every single individual involved within it is blameless.
"It's no-one's fault“ = "The people most directly responsible are insulated from consequences as a matter of policy, but not a policy anyone wrote down"
t's their version of the concentration camp guards all being "not responsible" for the killings.
The crimes the west have gotten away with and will get away with in the future really broke my brain at some point
Army doctors are also imperialists they aren't there to heal anyone but the soldiers enforcing imperialism.

WHO BURNED THOSE CHILDREN

Maybe they didn't realize that holding a gun and telling a doctor to perform life saving care on a child under penalty of death is an effective way of getting things done
Right? Like I dont care if im going to prison after. If im standing there with an assault rifle you are going to save that damn kid. But these soldiers arent exactly known for their good judgement. They joined the US military afterall.
My actions have consequences that will haunt me for the rest of my life? wtf this sucks!
Amerikan GI dipshit ghouls really do make me sick. (yes all of them)
Did they eat a bullet each to show contrition at least? No? Fuckers
Guess what, nothing mattered in the end. Americans still elected presidents which use the middle east as punching bag, for votes. Insane.
It’s called imperialism
