    How is this not a war crime? Precision bombs? Not targeting civilians? Genocide? Am I the only one who didn’t take a crazy pill today?

      It’s not “a loss of life”. Loss of life is from an accident or disaster. It’s something that couldn’t really be avoided.

      This event was an intentional slaughter of innocent human life. It’s not “loss of life”. It’s genocide.

          And don’t apologize for your English. You speak it well.
