Last month there was a drone strike that killed up to ten Afghan people. It was said that this was an "error" or an accident, but you never know. This happened last month and we are just now hearing about it. That's insane. We should we hearing about kinds of stuff like this right away no matter where it happens, because it could be a terrorist attack or it could've jsut actually been an accident. It was said that every loss is a trajedy.
President Biden was just notified about the drone incident last Friday. He has now allowed a full investigation into what happened. The drone strike was done by the U.S. That is blood on America's hands that didn't need to be there if people were smarter about what they were doing.
What would you do if this happened to you and you survived?
In your opinion, do you think this was an accident?

Gavin,
Not a whole lot of effort on this Gavin. Your summary is too brief, your questions are not strrong and you didn't reply to any student comments.
I would not be very happen that a drone strike just struck me and would be very scared. I would try to find survivers and try to get home safely. I think this was an accident because we just got out of Afganistsan there would be no reason to go back in there for a dumb war. I don't think the U.S. is interested in going back there anyways so I don't think this accident was on purpose.
If this happend to me I would definetly be in shock and not know what to do. In my oppinion accidents happen but at the scale of the United States military mistakes like this would rarely happen. It would seem to be likely intentional because they did not let us know until a mont later.
If I were suddenly attacked by a drone strike and miraculously survived I would most likely end up in a petrified state, an irrational fear of people in their mid-20s would consume me as I would never know if they have a drone or not, preparing myself for another attack as it's only a matter of time before some guy straps a bomb to his drone and flies it into a building. I believe this was a very odd accident, mainly due to the fact that calling a drone strike on an area isn't something that you can do with no preparation or command. So they must have gotten a command from someone and ended up getting the wrong location, which ended in the tragedy of 10 people.
Unfortunately there are bad things that happen during war or times that are close to war. I am sure there are millions of bad things that have happened that no one know about. I don't they intentionally tried to kill innocent people so yes I think it was an accident. I am sure they will compensate the people that were hurt. It is too bad though.
If I were to ever be in a situation where a drone strike happened and I got injured, I would demand a compensation for the harm. I wouldn’t let the government try to change the story and make it seem like something it wasn’t. While I don’t know for sure if it was an accident or not, it is very sad that Afghan civilians were killed. And it’s also upsetting how we didn’t find out until a month after the incident.
I think this was an accident by the United States Military and that hopefully, this investigation will find the truth. I believe that if the drone strike was on purpose that perhaps the so-called civilians were undercover terrorists or something of that matter. It's quite weird however that this incident happened a week ago and only now we are finding out about it.
If I were attacked by a drone strike accidentally and survived I would likely seek compensation and tell my story to many people and news sources. I would probably become rich and be better of than I was before I was nearly killed by a drone. I would be very upset with the United States Military and want whoever was in charge of the drone locked up unless it was an accident.
If this ever did happen to me, I would be extremely upset, but would share my side of the story, and let people know the truth of what actually happened. I think it very well could've been on purpose and not an accident. Like you said this was more blood on America's hand that we did not need. And with the ways thing have been going with everything, I think it very well could've been on purpose.
If this ever happened to me and I survived I would want people to know and tell the story what happened and I would want to find out why it happened. If it was an accident and I was injured I would want money from the U.S. to pay for any medical things.
