I hear what you are saying here aj, but from my experience it seems to be mostly an American media phenomena. I listen to the BBC World Service when in the car and watch Sky News, France 24 on YouTube almost exclusively now. Their coverage of this conflict is pretty consistent with how they've covered the previous and ongoing instances and conflicts you mention in your post. Another big difference is they cover conflicts that are not just in their own national interests. I avoid American "news" coverage almost entirely now as it's not news - it's almost entirely talking head op-ed. <<War combatants do horrific things during wars, but somehow it's coming across that what Russia is doing is some kind of new, unique, and beastly warfare>> Problem is it's not anything new for the Russians. They consistently target hospitals, schools and other civilian areas indiscriminately in ALL their recent conflicts (Chechnya, Georgia, Syria, Ukraine). The instances of collateral damage from those US actions you referenced resulted in orders of magnitude less civilian deaths than the Russians have committed in just the last few days alone in Ukraine. I think it's a false equivalence to compare those tactics to the US forces'.
