"Righteous (drone) strike"

Militarist Milley said the drone strike that allegedly killed an aid worker and a bunch of children was righteous. 'Righteous' strikes me as a religious term. I think a lot of these American militarists are fighting a religious war. Disgusting, either way.

Wow a deflection right out of the gate! I guess you have no problem when children are droned when its your team doing the droning.

Only those anti-Christian would be against the free speech word of "righteous" or "crusade", each of which have secular definition. Just because such terms have ear-piercing dog whistle clarity makes no diff. Vote Republican.

Well it is all OK now - they made apologies:

Pentagon admits Biden drone strike in Kabul DID kill seven children, aid worker and two other adults: General McKenzie says there was NO suicide bomber in the car and offers 'my sincere apologies'

A tragedy caused by the US without merit. Aluminum tubes and yellow cake confirmed in the white vehicle so let's invade or at least blow the car up. Even if right, the collateral damage of innocents was worse.
