But that's just me. I like to get the full story before calling out a country for cowardice.

Once again you display your good common sense...an apparent rare thing among your fellow Canadians...at least the ones on this board.
I can tell you...having engaged in combat myself...on multiple occasions...that they followed their rules of engagement (as can be heard on the video) but I am sure that they are sadden about the loss of the children...but will not lose any more sleep over the engagement than thousands of other soldiers that have engaged in combat operations. Engaging in combat is not a pleasant experience.
