To me this is very disturbing.  55 civilians were killed?  I mean I get that they killed some bad guys too, but to me it is not worth sacrificing so many innocent lives just to kill a few bad guys.  U.S. troops were killed too.  This whole thing is just terrible and tragic in my opinion.  IT sounded like some protocol was not followed either, which makes it even worse.  I think we need to mind our own business and get out of there honestly.  We have enough issues with our own country to be over there contributing to issues in others.

Did you see what happened with the US and Afghan training mission in Afghanistan. It's such a shame that in an area where we are trying to do good and improve things for the people there is being sabotaged by opposing efforts. I feel terrible for the lives lost as they gave their lives to help protect people and to be killed like that is heartbreaking.

I feel very sorry of the Afghan civilians that were killed by our military. This is why I hate war. I know some people will say war is war, which is true, but that does not make it any better.  I feel like this type of thing is what makes more terrorist. I know I would want to get revenge on the people who killed my family.

It's crazy that we've been at it this long with the Taliban.  It was getting close to twenty years ago no w that the Trade Centers were destroyed, and we're still fighting the same enemy.  It just goes to show you how "war' over there is anything but typical.  They are an unseen enemy, and we may be doing this for a long time still to come.
