A village is destroyed. And America says nothing happened. Sarcastic commentary from an Independent correspondent, just as news emerges that five Afghani and three American forces were killed by an errant one-ton bomb dropped from a silent, remote B-52 high above on a sector north of Kandahar which representatives of the newly-formed Afghani government were surprised is even a bombing target. It’s my impression that we’re hearing about alot more targeting errors in this war. It doesn’t seem to me this could be attributed to reporting bias (which finds US military blunders and ‘friendly fire’ casualties sexy to report on in any conflict), and, if anything, journalists have less on-the-ground access than they have in other conflicts, and what information is released by Americna official sources is more highly controlled. Looking for knowledgeable military commentary that could address whether, and if so why, we are indeed having more targeting problems with our munitions as they supposedly get smarter and smarter.
