   That was never a question right?

      Well the US government tried to deny it was a school at first, so that's put to bed at least.

         Well, if the map image I saw initially after the bombing was correct, then the facility did not used to be a school. The building had different, military purposes as it was attached to a military base, and later was converted into a school. My understanding is that the AI that was used to facilitate this attack was trained on maps where the building was still used for military purposes some years back.

         It absolutely does not excuse anything, but I suppose that might explain the denial at first. I cannot explain any further denial though.

            Google says the building was converted 11 years ago.

            We waged an AI-directed attack based on decade+ maps. That should be criminal.
