  You should read the beginning of the thread.
  Or type 'collateral murder incident' into google. 
The beginning of the thread references https://collateralmurder.wikileaks.org/ which is a wiki leaks URL, rather than a wiki pedia URL, as you suggested when you said "you can just read the wikipedia page".

Googling "collateral murder incident" does give a number of results, which does include a Wikipedia page, but it's not one that has been referenced in this discussion.

It's important for honest, rational discussion, to cite sources - especially those sources you depend upon. Unless you specifically state your sources, it's hard to understand the argument you're presenting, and the basis for your argument. Without a citation, it's essentially arguing that the Emperor's new clothes really are golden, and we have to believe that, because they really are golden.



I typed "collateral murder incident" into google and it returned the exact Wikipedia page that pvg told you it would return.

Further, when I type "Collateral Murder" into the Wikipedia search, it brings me directly to the page about the airstrike that pvg has repeatedly referenced, anchored at the section about the video.

Just what are you trying to pull here?

    which does include a Wikipedia page, but it's not one
    that has been referenced in this discussion.
It has been referenced multiple times in this thread by pvg. For someone who purportedly puts so much stock in honesty, this is incredibly dishonest of you.


  it returned the exact Wikipedia page that pvg told you it would return
Which particular wikipedia page is being so thoroughly referenced in this thread? Which particular post in this thread provides a URL?

Perhaps you could post the URL of that Wikipedia page?

Is it so terribly hard to copy and paste the URL of the page which is being cited?

After all, you have referred to this specific Wikipedia page in your comment, but you have still not provided the URL.


There has to be something seriously wrong with you to want to keep up this charade for so long. At best, you are pathologically dishonest.
