It's their version of the concentration camp guards all being "not responsible" for the killings.
These soldiers wanted the children to be treated, but the doctors couldn't. The doctors no doubt couldn't because they needed orders from command, and command didn't issue the order because the soldiers didn't follow proper protocol. It's no one's fault, it just was a thing that happened, we certainly shouldn't blame the military that travelled to the other side of the world and attacked those children in the first place, every single individual involved within it is blameless.
The crimes the west have gotten away with and will get away with in the future really broke my brain at some point
"It's no-one's fault“ = "The people most directly responsible are insulated from consequences as a matter of policy, but not a policy anyone wrote down"
