Well, the standard dismissal probably involves some sort of trivialization based on how atrocities such as this are an inevitability in war and that this is an isolated incident and that to focus on it would ignore all the freshly shorn puppies and new ice cream trucks provided by the presence of our troops.
It's tragic, not only because of all the lives ended and ruined, it also undermines the people who are trying make the best of shortsighted american foreign policy.
