Showing the desperation of the victims, might also reassure you of the fact that you care about them (while in reality things like these happen every day without you even reading it in the news). Finally, when you register that the ugly sides are taken in consideration, as you just did: > In the same episode, a drone strike kills tens of innocent people. If you think that is "propaganda", you obviously weren't paying any attention. your trust in the rest of the details of the episode and the series is enhanced. While they could be totally random, you have no clue about that.
