I wonder what it must be like to be a child in a part of world where the sirens are going off because America is bombing your people.

More or less the same feelings as when the corrupt dictatorship that rules their own country bombs them as in the Syrian example, do those children feel differently if the bombing is done by the Syrian regime, Russia, the USA & it's allies ?
Anyway, good on you dear old Brainbomb for asking the uncomfortable questions.
It's Anzac Day in Australia, a day of respectful recognition of sacrifice and service, not glorification of war. We're having a bit of a "national conversation" about General Sir John Monash and as part of that, the shabby way he was treated because of his German/Jewish parentage, he was born in Australia to immigrant parents. Some military historians regard Sir John Monash to be the last person knighted on the field of battle by an English Monarch​. Monash influenced the way Australians commemorate our nation's​ military experience. So Anzac Day is definitely not a celebration​, it's more a sombre paying of respect to those who died with an emphasis on the tragic nature of war
