Granted that was with hodge-podge armaments

lets say the ISS is a smallish balloon, not very high up, with lights connected, using tethering tech to propel.. wouldn't the joke be on us thinking it's this spectacular thing orbiting earth

@Thinky do you know about the antarctic treaty?

M20 75mm, a few WW2 57mm RRs

Etc.

M18 57mm, I believe it was.

You know so much about the military...surely you know about mind control and false flags

Misdirection

Tactics

Etc

I know of it, though I also know that no such MC reached any IOC

Chechnya was a blatant example of the RF doing similar

Incidentally, Iraq was not fought for oil or liberation

@Thinky if you're going to stick with your position on that, i have a question for you. if they were such big enemies and hated each other that much, why would they sign the antarctic treaty which didn't benefit anyone? don't you think there is a possibility that they are working together?

But a more nuanced agenda

@Flat earth BEAST Because the governments are not a homogenous unit, some times making political and diplomatic gestures can be used as ammunition later down the line

but it benefits the Polar Bears doesnt' it? they're SO CONCERNED about Polar bears and the health of our environment you see

Such as "we helped with that treaty, and now they want XYZ!"

The claim was wmds

An effective way to play the victim and roll blame

That was the claim

No evidence

But not the reason

i was being sarcastic btw

There was evidence, but it was faulty.

Preemptive strike

Okay so it's a balloon tethered to what?

^

Ironically, they did have WMDs, but not as what people typically think of.

World class miitary vs a third class shit hole

I'm really trying to follow here but occams razor is telling me it's probably a satellite.

And not what was specifically claimed.

occams razor says satelites should get hit by space junk more often and fall from the sky

They do. Space junk is usually just not big enough.

@Thinky they didn't even proposed it to each other, both of the nations brought it up to themselves and willfully signed it without any other requirements. it's like there's a hidden agenda right in front of your face

Yes, there is.

One if diplomatic maneuvering.

okay, how about just plain old malfunctioning, and crash to boot

And not of a ploy to hide Antarctica

Occans razor. No pics of satellites. You decide

That cat has been out of the bag for over 100 years
