I love how these kinds of posts imply that the natural habitat of the American soldier is Baghdad or Kabul
I spotted these National Guard troops at a normal Washington street corner not even near the Capitol. So many streets have been closed. It reminds me of the war zones I saw in Baghdad or Mosul or Falluja. So sad.

The CIA accusing the Mossad of organising anti regime protests in Israel is the news story that I have waited all my life for.
Leaked Pentagon documents contained an assertion that the leadership of the Mossad, Israel’s foreign intelligence service, had encouraged citizens and its staff to participate in anti-government protests. Senior Israeli defense officials denied that claim.
