Describing the US attacks on wedding parties as "a one time accident" rather than "our targets often spent years in hiding before finally coming into the open for a wedding, so we ended up bombing hundreds of weddings and calling them legitimate operations" is... ahistorical, to put it kindly.

No, it's not the same scale of evil as wiping out a city, but... pretending it's less than it was is an ugly look.
