#5  in 2009, the US adopted a new system of classifying 'combatants' for the purpose of tallying fatalities from drone strikes.

Because of the new system, the number of civilian deaths in drone strikes went down. The WH has constantly praised itself for that.

#4  gorb it's not hard to believe at all. You just parrot the narrative and don't worry about facts.

Spread the big lie as far and as fast as possible, that's the way to success in this regime.

#1  Did wunderkind Psaki get her youthful mush-filled head out of the sand? Or did she find that the tunnels that the Gazookians have so diligently built with Western and Muzzie aid led to Hamas hospitals, UN schools, mosques and storage centers? Moreover, that the tunnels that are used by these Hamas terrorists (the term her beloved administration and dear leaders are so loathe to use) are used to ferry arms, terrorists, rockets, and explosives to kill Israelis.
