This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

This is why none of these unauthorized strikes should have ever happened without a proper debate and vote in Congress. The whole administration has gone rogue, and the legal issues are piling up on top of each other.

The author of the piece screen-shotted below is a U.S. army officer.
I would contend that an officer planning for a 'post-liberal' military has betrayed their oath to "support and defend the Constitution," perjuring themselves before God and men and is as a result, unfit to serve.

In better times the US Navy would have rushed in with aid supplies, responders, medical facilities, fresh water production, aerial logistics, and tried to save every life. We were good at that kind of thing. You know nothing like that is going to happen under these devils in human guise.

Churches, synagogues, and mosques own millions of acres of land across the US, but are usually barred from building any housing on their property. Now, congressional lawmakers are introducing a bill to exempt houses of worship from restrictive local zoning laws so they can build affordable homes.

Against a charitable group. Likely not thermite if water put it out, but still could have started a big fire and killed people.
No munition debris from the first attack have been identified in open source imagery, but the second attack revealed the remains of a munition in burnt material, matching the design of smoke or thermite grenades used by several countries.
