On February 25th, President Biden ordered U.S. air forces to drop seven 500-pound bombs on Iraqi forces in Syria, reportedly killing 22 people. But unbeknownst to many, the U.S. military and its allies are engaged in bombing and killing people in other countries on a daily basis. The U.S. and its allies have dropped more than 326,000 bombs and missiles on people in other countries since 2001, including over 152,000 in Iraq and Syria. That’s an average of 46 bombs and missiles per day, day in day out, year in year out, for nearly 20 years. In 2019, the last year for which there are fairly complete records, the average was 42 bombs and missiles per day, including 20 per day in Afghanistan alone. So, if those seven 500-pound bombs were the only bombs the U.S. and its allies dropped on February 25th, it would have been an unusually quiet day for U.S. and allied air forces, and for their victims on the ground, compared to an average day in 2019 or most of the past 20 years. As with the human casualties and mass destruction that these hundreds of thousands of airstrikes cause, the U.S. and international media only report on a tiny fraction of them. The airstrike that destroyed the Doctors Without Borders hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan in 2015 was not conducted with bombs or missiles, but by a Lockheed-Boeing AC-130 gunship. These machines of mass destruction, usually manned by U.S. Air Force special operations forces, are designed to circle a target on the ground, pouring howitzer shells and cannon fire into it, often until it is completely destroyed. The U.S. has used AC-130s in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, and Syria. Not bad considering the US have not declared war on any other nation

the USA are the terrorists. look at their illegal wars, overthrowing governments because their leader will not kowtow to the US,. in its entire history the US has not been involved in wars for 16 years - 16!! So when will the US pay to rebuild Afghanistan, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Iraq, Somalia, Guatemala, Cuba, Lebanon, Grenada, Dominican Republic, Panama, Libya, El Salvador, Iran, and every other country that they have illegally invaded or bombed? they invade, destroy the country and infrastructure, get their asses handed to them by a bunch of poorly trained ill equiped fighters then run away leaving the country in worse condition than before and refuse to be accountable for their actions.The US should be made to pay for the removal of all of their land mines that are still in South East Asia that continue to kill and maim innocent people even to this day. Every US President is guilty of war crimes and they too should be brought to trial on war crimes. Russia invaded to stop the killing of 13,000 Russian speaking people in Eastern Ukraine by Nazi's - you know the Nazi's, who the Soviet Union defeated in WW2 and if it weren't for them all of Western Europe would be speaking German - why does the US invade countries on other continents that are NO THREAT to the US? They fight illegal wars for Oil and Profit - American Greed is Good yeah?
