U.S. warned truck drivers before strike. No I'm not kidding...

Excerpt:
"...When asked if the Paris attacks would bring about a change in the U.S. military’s rules of engagement, the official said that the truck drivers were warned first before the bombs fell.

“We dropped leaflets, warning the drivers to scatter,” said an official who had been briefed on the strike. “Next we strafed the area [with 30mm cannons] before the dropping bombs” from the warthogs."

How is this crew in the White House any different from the Keystone Cops? It will not be hard to do better than this guy, no matter which Republican wins.

you do know that the military also dropped leaflets during bush and iraq? do you really think this is something new and different?
by the way, i don't agree with them doing that. people doing work for isis ought to expect what may happen.
the gloves need to come off. but then, i've been saying that for years. there's a reason why ww 1 and 2 lasted the time they did, vs vietnam, and now afganistan.

Yes I know it has been done before, but like you, I am also questioning why they are doing it that way now, against this enemy, the terrorists who give no warning and who target innocent people by definition.

perhaps because it was truck drivers, rather than actual members of isis?

ISIS doesn't have truck drivers? How do we know who drives the rigs?
