Reminds me of when Dan Rather's whole career was damaged by fake documents of what really happened with W.

This may or may not be Ai. But, from multiple sources we know that US military bases across the whole area are unusable and half a dozen reservist were killed in a similar attack. And important large military planes were destroyed including AWACS and refueling tanker jets.

And there is so much lying and propaganda from both side who knows what is true. And we know the Trump administration lies about everything. The Iranian lego cartoons have more believable facts.
