    It’s not like we have a bunch of cameras pointing to the earth 24/7 to tell the real story /s

      There are satellites over the area that are pretty good. They can see the launch and by analysis can identify what was launched. They also can see where the people who launched it came from and where they went to afterwards.

        The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn’t. By subtracting where it is from where it isn’t, or where it isn’t from where it is - whichever is greater - it obtains a difference or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviation to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn’t, and arriving at a position that it wasn’t, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn’t, and it follows that the position that it was is now the position that it isn’t.

        What city/country did they come from and where did they go? First glance looks like a false flag

        Who needs trumpers when you have progressives tearing down progressives. The pedantry is astounding

            To draw us into the region on a very long time scale, just like the first baseless invasion of Iraq: wow the shills don’t like this summary

              We are in the region. That’s why they fired rockets at us.

                  The CIA doesn’t inform me of their analysis, but it’s probably done by now. Unconfirmed reports is that there are US dead. So, just as happened with the 3 dead US troops in Jordan weeks ago, something will happen.

                    still could be a false flag, just like 9/11 and others.

          There aren’t enough spy satellites to cover the entire planet all the time. They have prescribed and predictable orbits. If the attacker is a bit sophisticated, they could even time the attack to make sure there are no satellites around when they do it. The orbits aren’t exactly public knowledge, but it’s not something that can be hidden, either. There’s a whole amateur community out there for tracking them. But even if the attacker didn’t time it, it’s not likely they’d be noticed in a random Iraqi village, anyway.

          This is why we still have spy planes. If amateurs can track spy satellites, then so can nation states. They have a use, but they’re a little too predictable. But a spy plane won’t be watching every Iraqi village, either.

          How do we know you’re really Cuttlefish1111? Maybe you’re a government plant who’s just trying to make us think that Cuttlefish1111 is an idiot, so we won’t trust him! Which is more likely, Cuttlefish1111 saying something really stupid or the government conspiring against him? First glance I think the answer is obvious.

            As a flying squid, I can tell you that is no cuttlefish. They all speak Norwegian and they’re monolingual. It’s really annoying. You have to float there with a translator app if you need anything…

          Yes, yes. Everything is a false flag.
