It's a war, horrors will always happen in wars. However, when you compare this to what US did in Iraq it's incredibly restrained. The first thing US did was to do shock and awe where they bombed the shit out of the civilian population in major cities.

If you don't hate the US government, you are in a small minority in the world and even within the US itself.

There's a reason why the majority of the population doesn't vote. EDIT: Apparently this is only true for midterms, but trust in government remains low. https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2021/05/17/public-trust-in-government-1958-2021/
