Multiple civilian deaths linked to 2016-17 British airstrikes against IS in Mosul

The UK government has claimed for years that it was totally successful in fighting PISSI in Mosul. Now there is proof that some of its bombing killed civilians. The British government did wrong to deny the civilian casualties. It should have admitted those consequences.

That does not necessarily imply that those attacks were wrong. This was a necessary and justified war; fighting PISSI was necessary and called for. Military action always has a risk of going awry, which could kill bystanders. That doesn't imply that fighting is always wrong.

Whether the UK forces acted with proper care to reduce that risk, I don't know. It may have made mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, and mistakes are very common in the fog of war.

No army is perfect. Knowing that, we should think carefully before fighting a war.
