"It's bad": Lawmakers shocked at video of strike on survivors of alleged drug boat

I'm still trying to wrap my head around this whole thing 🤔. It's like, we're living in a world where the lines between right and wrong are super blurred, you know? On one hand, I get why people are outraged about the targeting of survivors - it's just basic human decency, right? But at the same time, can't we see that this is all part of a much larger system that's been built up over years? Like, what even is self-defense, really?

And then you have these politicians like Tom Cotton who are just totally on board with this operation. It's like they're living in some alternate reality where the ends justify the means, no matter how messed up those means are. Meanwhile, we've got folks like Adam Smith and Jim Himes who are trying to hold people accountable for their actions.

It's all so...human, you know? We're all just trying to make sense of this crazy world and figure out what's right and wrong. But sometimes it feels like the system is just too big and too complicated, and we can't even get close to the truth. 😕
 
🚨 This whole thing is so messed up 🤕. I'm all for taking down smuggling operations, but attacking people who are already hurt? That's just not right 😔. What if they were civilians? Or what if the boat was already sinking and they were trying to save themselves? The footage looks super intense... I don't know how anyone can defend that 🤯. We need more transparency about these military operations, especially when it comes to civilian casualties. It's not just about national security, it's about human rights too 💔. Can we please get to the bottom of this and figure out a way to prevent this kind of thing from happening again? 🙏
 
🤯 US military's 2nd strike on suspected drug boat leaves lawmakers divided - one side says it's necessary self defense, other side is totally wrong 🚫... who are we to judge? 😕
 
I'm telling you, if you watch that video footage again, you'll see what I mean. Those two people clinging to the wreckage? They're not even fighting back! The whole argument about whether they were capable of returning to the fight is just ridiculous. It's like saying "oh, but what if they had a gun?" No one's got a gun in this situation - we've already sunk their boat twice already! And now you're asking us to send more lives after them? That's not self-defense, that's just plain cruel. I mean, come on, Rep. Smith is right, we need an investigation into this, not just some hasty defense from the military. 🤔
 
😕 I'm really disappointed in this latest development. The US military's strike on that suspected drug boat is a huge concern for me. I mean, think about it - two people were left clinging to wreckage after the second strike! What kind of operation justifies putting lives at risk like that? 🤯 Not to mention the footage showing survivors being hit twice... it's just heartbreaking.

I get why some lawmakers are defending it as self-defense, but for me, it seems like a case of 'shoot first, ask questions later'. We need to make sure our military personnel follow procedures and respect human life. It's not just about national security; it's about basic human rights. 🌎

International criticism is also necessary here - we can't just ignore warnings from the UN human rights chief. This incident highlights the importance of accountability in our actions, especially when it comes to our military operations. We need to have more transparent discussions about this and make sure that anyone involved in such strikes faces consequences. 💥
