  1. I’m old enough to remember when Lefties actually cared about drone strikes killing civilians and our government lying about it. And not only that, back in the olden times Lefties cared about things like free speech and preventing censorship and curtailing excessive illegal immigration. Of course some of this stuff is going all the way back to the nineteen hundreds.

  2. The NYT article about the drone strike might be true, but let’s not forget that it was essentially nothing more than a press release by the Taliban. (Unless you believe that the NYT had reporters and translators and photographers on the ground.)

  3. NEO —

    Yes. And they said one important source of information was the New York Times.

    “The general said the Times investigation helped investigators determine that they had struck a wrong target. “As we in fact worked on our investigation, we used all available information,” General McKenzie told reporters. “Certainly that included some of the stuff The New York Times did.”

    Whether the Times article was correct or not, it was certainly effectively written by the Taliban. One has to wonder if the military’s other sources were more reliable.

  4. LTEC:

    The military had plenty of other conduits of information. I don’t think there’s much doubt at this point about what happened.

  5. So now I’m wondering WTH is the difference between Twitter (or Facebook or YouTube) and Tik Tok, other than the government that’s handling the site?
