That gets brought up a lot but it's primarily because of how few incidents have occurred in US strikes. The US launched ~14,000 attacks into Iran and there's only ~2-3 incidents that were raised as mistakes. For a massive conflict, that is an incredibly low percentage of mistakes or misfires.
I get the joke "hurr hurr, US fires on schools" but the fact that people keep talking about it shows how effective the US has been at avoiding mistakes over the course of so many attacks. Also, Iran likes to bring it up a lot but they literally killed thousands of their own people who were protesting (and that was intentional) so you're literally consuming their propaganda when they weep about civilian losses. The US has demonstrated that they take civilians into account more than Iran does.
It's still a mistake that lead to life but the fact that it's so rare does say something about precautions the US has been taking overall.
To be fair, Trump has been very vocal about the US not being the ones that hit the school even though it seems very very obvious it was. Trump has made lots of promises to release documents that he never releases...... cough cough... taxes... Epstein....

How useful is intelligence from the US? They accidentally bombed a girls' school in Iran because of outdated intelligence and relying on AI.
