Merriam-webster says mousquet came from the Old Italian moschetto meaning a small artillery piece. It’s also a term for a male sparrow hawk. Which there was a traditio of naming weapons after animals.

The Wikipedia page for musketeer says this:
The Musketeers of the Guard were a junior unit, initially of roughly company strength, of the military branch of the Royal Household. They were created in 1622 when Louis XIII furnished a company of light cavalry (the “carabiniers”, created by Louis’ father Henry IV) with muskets.

So the term Musketeer comes from the fact that they are armed with muskets. I cant find anything about a mousquet being a place on the belt to hold stuff.

It’s an extravagant piece of art. A mad, unthinkable, utterly impossible piece of art! A frabulous, grabulous, zip-zoop-zabulous piece of art!

You are giving the orange turd way too much credit. He aint smart enough for a plan as complex as that.
Hamas kills 1200, takes 250 hostages and Israel kills 47,000 mostly women and children. That seems weird, but it tracks with what other genocides result in.
Andúril is Aragorn’s sword from LOTR. The company intentionally stole the name.
