I dunno but, whatever it is, we can count on you to be 100% behind it and 100% opposed to any criticism of it.

I can't help wondering, every time I see this thread, how a non-flying turkey could down a fighter jet. A goose can do it, of course....

I read somewhere that we drop leaflets, whenever we are going to bomb ISIS oil truck columns, to warn the drivers.

The reason: we claim the drivers are civilians. Some distinction!

I don't know about that but I do know that we declined to target the convoys for a very long time, beginning only after Russia more or less shamed us into it. Our reasons for leaving the convoys alone was that the tanker trucks were "infrastructure" and would be needed in a post-conflict Syria.
