        Let me understand this. The military is in charge? They can just bomb whenever? Why would a president put the military in charge? Someone?

        My understanding of it is they used it to destroy an underground cave network and its contents/inhabitants.

        $300MM to take out 36 ISIS fighters and some caves. Not a good return on investment.

        Convenient that trump arranged so he doesn't even have to be accountable or provide explanation for his incompetence

        violence will never bring peace. The US government just seeks to spend tax money to enrich the 1% who benefit from war.
