A new Pentagon report asserts that U.S. military operations resulted in zero civilian deaths from boat strikes. Critics call it a whitewash given previous reports documenting casualties.
A new Pentagon report asserts that U.S. military operations resulted in zero civilian deaths from boat strikes. Critics immediately called it a whitewash, pointing to previous reporting that documented civilian casualties in similar operations. The report essentially contradicts its own predecessor findings.
This looks like a facts-shifting exercise rather than a genuine investigation. If previous reports documented civilians killed in boat strikes, a new report claiming zero casualties suggests either the definition of 'boat strike' was narrowed, the methodology changed, or the conclusion was reached first and evidence was fit around it. This kind of shifting official narrative on civilian casualties erodes public trust in military casualty counts.
