One thing to keep in mind is that the media doesn’t have to show these clips they could just report the facts, but their handlers want these clips reviewed and the horrors beamed into our heads. Why?

History confirms that this is a time tested strategy and the gravy train is warming up if you’re a defense contractor. SAD
