1. Catastrophe? Or result of war?
Yes, the death of 30 troops is terrible, but bullets fly fast and furious in war zones.

If a plane full of nuns crashes in California, that's a catastrophe, but soldiers getting shot down in a war is predictable.

Please don't call me Anti-soldier. One of my good friends is a special forces ranger who has done 6 tours. I cringe for he and his family every time he leaves.

End the war and end the casualties.
