Families Sue Jordan Over 2016 Deaths of 3 U.S. Green Berets

What actions or inactions of the government? Immediately after the killings, the very first statement was that he acted according to rules of engagement and that it was a mistake. After the joint FBI-GID investigation, the video footage refuted that story, and the perpetrator was prosecuted and jailed for life. The rumors that they were intoxicated were circulated by the Hweitat tribe, and our conspiracy theories-mongering citizens supported it until the video of the shooting was released. Them being westerners does not mean they are right, as you would like to believe as part of our collective hobbies of self-loathing and lethal obsession with criticizing our government.
