I am not going to miss Ayatollah Khamenei, who was, I think, on balance, bad for his own people, and the world. That said, I have concerns that maybe that is questionable criteria for bombing a country & assassinating their leader. If it is...

Those are just basic disposable MedTec hazmat coveralls made of Tyvek or something similar. They wouldn't last very long walking around on dirt without boots over them-but they're cheap. Wearing them in that scene doesn't make alot of sense-if...

The Iranians already succeeded with popular revolt - in 1979, against the Pahlavi Shahs, for Ayatollah Khomeini. That was a well-prepared popular revolt, with a clear direction, with the population knowing who they were trying to bring in to...

Sounds like someone just trying to generate a headline. How near was "near"? Who was quoted as "expressing concern?" What specific risks would being "near" Ft Bliss create? In that ligth the response from Ft Bliss should be read as "didn't...

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...

what do your political comments (and the rest of the political speculation in this thread) have to do with documenting a current event? @Mick West

There is also a profit to be made, if you're sufficiently ghoulish and in a position to profit from insider trading. Three articles this morning point to misbehavior well beyond the stated reasons for war (apart from the usual "distraction"...

These days, I'd add: Fake AI videos of spectacular, unrealistically huge explosions. Recycled video of impressive explosions in earlier wars claimed as from the current war. Click-bait false stories of major destruction of various well known...

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...
