No. ISIS would kill innocents in these kinds of numbers _on_purpose_. They also made a policy of hiding among civilians with the express intention of increasing the collateral damage. They're really, really bad.
We can and must do better. The brutality of an enemy doesn't justify this indifference to human life, nor the willful blindness, nor the dishonesty.
But I expect that the vast majority of people in the region are glad ISIS lost.
