Analyses and video evidence emerged over the weekend showing that the air strike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh Girls’ Primary School on February 28—that killed over 160 girls aged 7 to 12—was carried out by the US military.
The girls’ school in Minab is in Iran’s southern Hormozgan province close to the Persian Gulf. The school was effectively pulverized by multiple blasts, and many of those killed were obliterated and could only be identified through DNA analysis. Footage showed bodies and body parts partially trapped under collapsed floors, alongside scattered schoolbags, notebooks and dust‑covered textbooks.
We know.
“They were just following orders”
Kinda like brave djihadists on the 7th of october am i right?
There’s no “just” about it. They were following orders AND they did not know. They couldn’t have known. The soldiers are given coordinates, not the details about what the structure is used for.
The Nazis at Nuremburg could not claim ignorance. There was a clear paper trail. Nazis had killed millions for the reason of ethnic cleansing. They did it for years. They kept records.
Tell me, how are these situations similar?

This is not an individual failure. It’s a systemic failure. Americans should pay for this. With their blood.

Show me where does it speak about knowledge. You’re just moving the goalpost to defend your little war criminal buddies.
Nope. Not gonna read a 23 page document. YOU tell ME how it’s similar. Or at least copy/paste the relevant information.
Second, I’m all about prosecuting war crimes. I’d love to see this one prosecuted. How about we actually investigate it, too? Maybe, I dunno, find out who gave the order. If bad intel was passed. If the leaders knew about the bad intel but decided to proceed.
Ofc, this won’t actually happen. The “war” is just another distraction, until the next manufactured crisis and the next until humanity snuffs itself out with its own all-too-clever Machiavellian schemes.
But by all means, throw the full weight of social justice at the poor sap who has to live with knowing his finger pushed a button that killed 160 innocent girls. Beloved daughters and sisters, erased from this world to amuse a demented billionaire’s ego.
You’re a bad faithed war crime apologist lmao.
“They were just following orders” “So like the nazis” “No, not like that!!!”
Nobody cares about your internal politics buddy. Maybe we could bomb one of your school to bring freedom to the USA
Yeah might as well just hang him. It’d just be mercy killing at this point
They knew they were bombing an enemy country unprovoked, which is illegal under international laws. I know you’re an american and thus a nazi, and that could have happened to you, but here’s an idea: maybe don’t enlist in an imperlalist force that kills children for breakfast.
You got me twisted, my friend. I fully condemn the military actions. All of them.
But assigning blame to some random soldier? It’s like screaming at the waitress over a menu item. She didn’t write the menu, she doesn’t cook the food, she has literally no power over anyone.
No. It’s like screaming at the waitress who served arsenic to kids and killed 160 of them while knowing full well the restaurant sometimes do that
How does it feel downplaying war crime?
It seems like assigning the blame solely to the soldier is downplaying the crime. Why don’t you want the entire chain of command prosecuted?
I do. Hang them.
