I'm not sure what a "civilian power plant" is, or what a "civilian bridge" is, or how you morally distinguish it from a civilian merchant ship like the ones the Iranians are shooting missiles at.

If you want to get into details the difference probably lies in the risk to civilian population that had no choice but to be affected by the strikes, while even though those ships are civilian they were warned to keep away and could have easily complied. The real difference, though, lies in the fact that in the American mind Americans are supposed to be the good guys, and "we're doing war crimes because the other side does it too" shouldn't fly.

@Paleface @Terry So it's the guy who scrubs the head's fault that his ship had a missle fired at it. Also I don't know when attacking bridges or power plants became a war crime; I assume it was when Donald Trump wanted to do it.
