No, that isn’t what happened. Why are you pretending that they knew they were journalists instead of acknowledging that this incident was a tragic mistake?

  Nothing in my post pretends that, and "how should we know the media card carrying unarmed civilians we shot were journalists" doesn't help their case as much as you think.

    It helps it exactly as much as I think. Obviously the only one who said anything like that is you though. And now you’re falsely claiming that they intentionally targeted unarmed civilians.

      I might be able to agree with your extremely forgiving view of the military's actions if they didn't cover the incident up for years. Instead, they intentionally shot unarmed civilians who had done nothing wrong merely for being close to people carrying weapons and reported killing insurgents.

        I’m not “forgiving” anything, just accurately recalling the events. You seem to be intent on lying about what happened, even though it’s all in video.

          You keep accusing me of lying without even attempting to explain how I'm wrong. The original group containing two journalists was fired on with the US fully aware only a few weapons were present, and with no hostile actions happening. Explain how shooting those people isn't intentionally targeting unarmed civilians.
