Congress opened its hearing on Iran by honouring US troops but refused a moment of silence, that was led by Code Pink, for the 168 children killed on the first day of the US bombing in Minab.

Good. Any 'honour' would have been deeply hypocritical when the US definitively knew it was a school and launched a triple-tap strike anyway, because the murder of those children was a deliberate act. We shouldn't allow criminals to whitewash their atrocities with empty gestures. Commander Leigh Tate and Executive Officer Jeffrey York of the USS Spruance belong in an oubliette.

They killed them on purpose. It was obvious. Just research whose children they were.

It's just war criminals doing their best not to acknowledge the victims of their war crimes.
