    Why do we see so many videos of Russian and Israeli military being like that and not American? Is it because the US government is better at controlling the media or does the US military really have a better handle on behavior like that?

      You underestimate how little effort israel is doing to hide their war crimes. Their soldiers are mostly untrained Nazi extreme right wingers with a gun.

      Smartphones and CCTV cams weren’t that common before too.

      Before we had Snowden and Assagne that needed to leak western war crimes and we know what happened to those guys.

      America as army has since adjusted a bit. I actually commended them for their drone strike that only used knifes to kill one of their targets. Though by giving israel 2000 pound bombs to mass murder children at schools with, that reputation is now completely gone.

      The reason America adjusted is not because they found their humanity, but because they found out that if you bomb three entire families to kill one enemy, you create a hundred more enemies. And then the Taliban won.
