    On April 7, the interviewee (Schmitt?) identifies the back-seater of the F-15E as a pilot, after correctly identifying him as a WSO. WSOs are not pilots, they are mission specialists. He also states that the 2 ejection seats leave the aircraft seconds apart. They do not, they leave the aircraft tenths of seconds apart.

    Based on this narrow range of information over which I have specific knowledge, I now doubt the Daily will provide accurate reporting.

    No, Rachel you insufferable airhead. Americans aren’t noticing gas prices and wondering why this is happening. (Do you really think we’re all as stupid as you seemingly are?)

    They’re horrified that they have a corrupt president who like king lear has descended into madness, while the country’s so-called newspaper of record doesn't even bat an eye...! Perhaps the times can't bring itself to employ reporters capable of reporting honestly about the Middle East because the paper itself supports an... more

    On March 10th you analyze the complicated relations between US and NATO allies in the war with Iran.

    Half an hour talking about it, and no one single mention of what would mean for EU and UK go to war with Israel, which they blame for war crimes. And how would they go to war on the same side of a person who is leader of one side of this war, and can’t step on a EU country or UK without been arrested, since there’s a warrant against him for war crimes. Go to a war to kill people, WITH people who ... more
