Schatz: We don’t know for sure, but the likely bombing of an elementary school with one of our Tomahawk missiles is not a one-off mistake. It is the result of a change in policy so that the United States has way looser rules of engagement — way more tolerance for civilian harm.

Jones: These people, I think, are very flagrant in their disregard for the law. It’s as if they don’t read what is in these statutes, and they say, “Ah, we see one keyword and we’ll just run with it.” That is having a material impact on people across the country, and I think people are tired of it.
