    So, for a few weeks now, "right-wing conspiracy theorist" have been
    pointing to the drone strike in Afghanistan... you know the one that Joe bragged about as "getting the terrorists" responsible for the attack
    outside the poorly guarded, non-military airport... as a "bad kill."

    Well, now apparently the Pentagon has admitted that this is indeed correct. From CNBC:

    From PBS: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/pentagon-admits-error-in-u-s-drone-strike-that
    -killed-10-civilians-in-afghanistan

    "Back to the day, McKenzie provided this map to reporters. He said that the military followed the car all up and down those lines for six hours with six drones, watched the driver put jugs in the truck, and park less than two miles from the airport.

    "McKenzie said the strike was not rushed. They chose a location they thought was isolated and even had the missile timed so that it would go off inside the car to try and minimize civilian casualties.

    "And yet, despite all of those safeguards, what they thought was the right target was the wrong one. And they missed the fact that there was an entire family nearby. We now know that the driver was 43-year-old Zamari Ahmadi, a longtime worker for a U.S.-funded aid group."

    If those sources aren't good enough for you, you can search "Pentagon
    admits drone strike" on google or duckduckgo and find links from the UPI,
    CBS, Reuters, USA Today, Bloomberg, and several others.

    Someone innocent will probably get fired for an attack on a family that was rushed and timed to make Joe look good for his fiasco of an Afghanistan withdrawl.

    Yeah, that was bad. I blame the Pentagon more than Biden, though.

    For this particular incident, I agree. I also believe it is just another
    part, or symptom, of the overall bungled withdrawl "plan."

    It's not the first time a bombing has gone bad, nor will it be the last, regardless of who's president.
