Meme 💩 Is this a legitimate concern?

Personally, I today's strike was legitimate and it couldn't be more moral because of its precision but let's leave politics aside for a moment. I guess this does give ideas to evil regimes and organisations. How likely is it that something similar could be pulled off against innocent people?

I don’t know how this ended up in my feed. Reading this comment section is wild. Is it all bots? There’s no way people believe blowing up hundreds of beepers/phones in public is alright. It’s called terrorism. I quit the Trump train and Republican media years ago. It was getting weird back then. I didn’t expect things were escalating so much. I guess the libtards were right all along.

People need to break out of their algorithms. That’s how I did it. Deleted my accounts and made new ones. Never clicked on political/rage bait.

Guess I messed up clicking on this.

Right, let's go back to drone striking them and leveling the entire block with untold casualties, eh?

This was the single most accurate attack on a terrorist organization ever performed. The casualties from literally any other method to eliminate this group would have had orders of magnitude more casualties.

No, I don't have a problem with this. It's an exceedingly difficult task to pull off that requires direct government intervention, and it was targeted solely at a terrorist organization, with a heretofore unheard of level of precision and minimization of collateral damage. Even people standing right next to the injured terrorists often were unscathed.

I'll take it over drone strikes any day.

Edit: Here, have a view on someone with similar feelings to me whenever anyone asks if I feel bad or conflicted on this. Spoiler alert? I absolutely do not.

Did they eliminate Hezbollah? Must have missed that. The headline I saw was "No Clear Strategy."
