According to Newsweek<\/a>, during the 27 months that Obama was president in the war against ISIS, the group “Airwars”, which describes itself as a “journalist-led transparency project, reports that “we tracked 855 alleged civilian casualty events which likely killed 2298-3398 civilians,” and for the seven months of the Trump Administration, “we tracked 1,196 alleged incidents in which we assess at least 2,819-4,529 civilians died.” <\/p>\n

Of course, there’s a simple reason for that – the Obama Administration did it’s level best to avoid fighting ISIS for any excuse. <\/p>\n

During the Trump months, the coalition took back Mosul, the second-largest city in Iraq and they’re working on taking Raqqa, Syria back. Most of the fighting has been in cities and population centers since Fallujah fell last year. ISIS tends to hide themselves behind women and children, so it’s only natural that these human shields are going to be casualties.<\/p>\n

Airwars said that about 80 civilians were killed per month under Obama and that that figure had risen to 360 under Trump by July.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Read any of the books published recently, like “Outlaw Platoon” or Dakota Myer’s “Into the Fire” and you’ll read how the Obama Administration made avoiding combat for supporting fire units a matter of national policy, putting our own forces at risk, costing American lives, so the Nobel Prize winner could salvage his legacy.<\/p>\n
