AI can only replicate what it has seen before, so fucking obviously it would blow up a bunch of kids you collection of bewilderingly in charge bonobos unconvincingly wearing suits.

Edgy.
The reality is that school used to be part of the military compound it is embedded in.
It is a war crime to locate a military facility near civilians.

“Sorry dead kids! Your government put your school in a former military compound so we’re going to turn you all to ash. Not our fault we didn’t put the school there!”
We’re not talking one or 2 accidental casualties here. This is 123 children. That’s 123 families impacted if not more. How many of the people in those 123 families are going to turn into aggressors now?
This is a collosal fuck up and simply brushing it away by saying it was part of a former military compound is just unacceptable. Sorry you bought that line of pure unfiltered bullshit but I expect more out of my government. Especially one that claims to be the most advanced and powerful in the world.

I haven’t seen anyone brushing the tragedy away. You aren’t trying to bully me into withholding context are you?
US didn’t decide to bomb a girl’s school because they planned to blame the Iranians for locating it there.

it was double or triple tapped too.
