No matter how advanced the weapons, or how extensive the training, people are fallible. It is easy to sit in judgement after the fact but the "Clean War" is a myth. We're blowing people up for fuck's sake, emotions will run high, and people will get hurt.
There is a reason that the word "Snafu" orignated in the Army, likewise the word "Fubar".
I'm not trying to condone one side over the other, I'm simply saying that "Shit Happens".
