There's nothing new in this. Americans shooting Americans, Brits shooting Brits, us shooting each other. Mistakes happen. People, and techonolgy, are fallible.
I guess my question would be, what's the point of this topic?

I saw the video. These days it's very rare compared to all previous wars. The pilots obviously made a mistake, so it's not like someone in our military just doesn't like the Brits.

You're expecting perfection. So no, it can't be obliterated completely. Though as Kyle said, it has been reduced greatly.
