I think it's pretty safe to say, given the demonstrable incompetence of the Trump administration, that the reason we aren't hearing much about the end game, is that there is no plan. But bombing is fun, looks tough to the hoi polloi, and takes...

But is it really discussing politics OVER interesting debunk stuff? I don't think so. Debunk posts still massively outnumber political ones. And while I share your "escape" take (I sincerely appreciate the sanity & brains of this group) I don't...

It looks like a thin walled silicone doll, probably built using a similar technique for manufacturing silicone masks by applying the layers of silicone on a shaped core and then demoulding. Internal "organs" can be made of polyurethane rubber to...

Two problems with the Popular Revolt concept. It depends on a sufficient mass of Iranians disliking the regime more than they dislike the countries that just dropped a few thousand pounds of high explosives into their neighborhoods. The Iranian...

I have not noticed that button before, thanks!

That is an AI generated video. It looks much more like Gaza than Mexico. Although he does mention he was in Israel, the photo itself is AI generated, probably from pictures taken in Gaza. I cropped the footage to show how the ground suddenly...

Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed in an Israeli strike Saturday as part of a massive joint military operation between the U.S. and Israel, Iranian state media confirmed. The latest: The Iranian government announced 40 days of public...

apparently there was concern with some City of El Paso drones last september also. (but doesnt sound like they were shot down, article says "near" the military base) Fort Bliss unaware of El Paso's use of foreign drones near base, assessing...
