In light of growing civilian casualties in the U.S.-led invasion of Syria, U.S. Central Command has started an investigation into reports of civilian deaths. According to the spokesman for the Union of Syrian Medical Relief Organisations (UOSSM), between 30 to 60 people are dying each day since the U.S-led coalition started bombing Syria.

Boasting about the precision of airstrikes, the top commander of the coalition 'fighting' the Islamic State, Lieutenant General James Terry, claims that: "We have some great capability in terms of precision," and "To date, we've got a very good record." Further claiming that "we took the utmost care about who we are targeting."

SOTT.net has been carrying reports of their 'very good' track record: Last October, the U.S. government claimed that the airstrikes in Syria and Iraq are exempt from "standards" applied to other aerial attacks, as if the U.S. ever applied ANY 'standards' during ANY of their 'humanitarian' bombings.
"The specific standards at issue in the NDU speech apply only when we take direct action 'outside areas of active hostilities,' as was noted at the time," said Caitlin Hayden, the spokeswoman for Obama's National Security Council, referring to Obama's address at the National Defense University in the spring of 2013. "That description - outside areas of active hostilities - simply does not fit what we are seeing on the ground in Iraq and Syria right now."
Basically, they'll continue killing civilians, and to hell with anyone who gets in their way. We can expect nothing but another whitewashed report from the U.S. investigation. After all, civilians are mere 'collateral damage' in the never-ending war on terror.
