The US must demand the heads of whichever evil shits did this. Not the people who were instructed, the people who made the decisions.
EDIT I've been convinced by some of the arguments and then re-reading history about Nazi Germany through to Colonel Oliver North. The people who physically pull the trigger can, in a hearing, be allowed to explain why they pull that trigger. I would imagine that this buries the people making the decisions higher than their neck.
Nah the shitheads that pulled the trigger can get it, too.
"I was just following orders."
Those missiles could have gone to Ukraine to defend against russian tanks, but for some reason the current US administration said we couldn't afford it...
Weird...
The us military gets a trillion a year and they’re already screaming they’re low on munitions.
They also didn't bother to consider maybe they might need some anti-drone technology before invading the country that manufacturers russia's drones. You know, like that laser in arizona that shot down a party balloon or something...
Could you even imagine our response if the situation were reversed?
Yeah. We might bomb their schools and assassinate their leaders.
Edit: On second thought... we didn't bomb Saudi Arabia for 9/11.
Yeah, that's the fun thing about doing the worst shit you can think of on the first day, doesn't really give you any options after that. We can really threaten Iran with actually we haven't done.
Of course that is the MAGA Hallmark: evil, selfish, AND stupid.
Instead we opted for regime change in Afghanistan. Look how that turned out.
Thoughts and prayers? That's usually what happens when US school children die.
The only thing that could've saved them was a good guy with a ~~gun~~BGM-109 Tomahawk Land Attack Missile!!!
"Thanks to our boys in blue and having access to a BGM-109 Tomahawk. The police were able to neutralize the shooter with no injuries to our brave officers. Our initial investigation shows that all the children were dead before the Tomahawk hit the target. This is contrary to eye witness reports who are falsely claiming that all the school children were alive. As a city, we are going to continue to purchase discounted US military equipment to protect our beloved citizens."
Amerikkka: Tired of killing kids in its own schools, now killing kids in other countries' schools
who tf downvoted you? Butthurt USians who couldn't handle the truth?
Probably just a stickler for spelling errors.
The cruelty is the point. They're just wanting to destroy key infrastructure and kill as many children as possible. We learned well from Israel.
What's the point of schoolchildren if the president can't fuck them?
Trump killed school girls
Let's not forget who specifically ordered this war to be started. All headlines should start with Trump ordered children to be murdered or Trump is getting people killed or Trump has raised oil prices and people are beginning to starve or Trump closed off shipping lanes
He has raped school girls too. I need to replace the pic inside the helmet to one with both Jeff and Don in it.
Yes, but don't give the soldiers that pulled the trigger a pass. They're legally required to not follow illegal orders. All of them should be court marshalled and charged with war crimes.
Trump
Nope, the United States of America.
You’re responsible for who you elect.
No thanks.
The US did this. This began in like 1908. Trump wasn’t even born yet. The USA is an evil empire and needs to be ripped out root and branch. Capitalism has to go.
None of this will be fixed without a revolution so bloody Mao would be uncomfortable and the glassing of Israel.
Don't forget that abortion is a sin, btw.
well, yeah. that's what the bad guys do.
How would Americans reasonably react if this happened to one of their schools by another country. Have to specify where this would be by another country as we all know they don't care if it was an American
Since when did the us care if their schools get shot up?
The USA killed hundreds of thousands of children in Iraq, they are just warming up to SAVE DEMOCRACY, which requires many thousands of stacked up baby bodies
School shootings have been a long USian tradition
(Sorry for the dark humour)
Americans have done thousands of 9/11 and yet they arent satisfied with their bloodlust
The only person denying this is Donald Trump. Even the US military isn't disowning this incident.
The article claims video evidence that it was a U.S. missile. So where’s the video?
According to Iran it was a double tap strike. The girls all gathered in a single location after the first strike and then the US bombed them again around 40 minuten later.
Someone pressed the button to kill children, then pressed again to kill more. I am not mad at dt but at that human who pressed the button. Why cant every soldier just say no and kill the one who told him to do the war crime
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
