Yes, U.S. experts have said that the ratio of civilians killed to militants killed is roughly on par, if not better, than other Western militaries.

The politics on this are really interesting, again, the fact that Joe Biden, who is very concerned about the youth vote has said that he will swiftly sign it if the comes. He wants the Senate to move quickly.

I think there's more to it, Anderson. One is data collection. The second is disinformation put out by TikTok to the 170 million or so American users.
