I've just received this from DD on the bombing of the MSF hospital by the Americans.
It is really unbelievable.

As I understand it, any attack on a hospital, even if you believe there are enemy combatants there, is a war crime.

When the great powers start regarding innocent deaths as simply collateral damage and justified then we are in a mess. Do they not remember Dresden?

For America if they bomb a hospital they only have to say sorry, if they blow up a British plane it's friendly fire

It was a war crime , they knew what they doing and didn't care

It'll be interesting to see what happens but I suspect nothing will change.
DD and her colleagues are still so shocked, very angry and sad.

Nothing will come of it and nothing will change - so wrong
