[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] "Helluva pinpoint operation": US airstrikes hit Syrian grain silos, killing workers

In July, John Kerry was caught insulting Israel by sarcastically saying about Israeli airstrikes, "It's a helluva pinpoint operation." He then repeated it for emphasis.

Apparently, the Secretary of State was believing Hamas-fed media reports that Israel was targeting civilians, without checking what Israel had to say.

Now comes today:

U.S.-led air strikes hit grain silos and other targets in Islamic State-controlled territory in northern and eastern Syria overnight, killing civilians and wounding militants, a group monitoring the war said on Monday.

The aircraft may have mistaken the mills and grain storage areas in the northern Syrian town of Manbij for an Islamic State base, said the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. There was no immediate comment from Washington.

Also:

6 civilians ( all men ), were killed by air strikes by coalition warplanes on al-Fadghami area in the southern countryside of al-Hasakah.

Will reporters even ask the State Department about this? Will there be sarcastic comments about US pinpoint airstrike capability and intelligence? Will there be any video reports showing mangled bodies and wailing mothers? Will anyone say that targeting a grain silo is a war crime of depriving people of food, as Goldstone did?

Or are Arab lives only valuable when their deaths can be blamed on Jews?
