What a very crass and uniformed statement to make.
Yes. A hospital was hit. To allude that “
some “grunts thought it had ISIS people in it” for the reason of this accident/mistake points to your very personally biased opinion which is not supported by what occurs in these types of situations. The only ludicrous charge of a war crime has come from the director and spokespersons for the “MSF” (known as Doctors without Borders in the U.S.) which by the way; is a very highly political driven organization with very biased agendas. This French based organization has a known history for making very outlandish claims and statements to appease their organizational philosophy and to keep encouraging the support of their (like minded donors) that contribute up to 80% of their budget.
And if you mean to infer that “grunts” are incapable of making informed decisions or handling important tasks, remember this: it is the “grunts” (18 and 19 year olds mainly) that perform the majority of front-line fighting that also allows you to sit on your butt in comfort and safety and hurl uninformed biased charges at them.
