I was having trouble understanding how Iran pulled this off, until I read that Russia sold them an advanced manpad called a “9K333 Verba” last December. Uses 3 different sensors to distinguish a target from countermeasures and is effective up to 15,000 feet. Not ideal to be flying low in a country with a bunch of those wandering around.

A few of these 135’s can receive fuel midair and judging from the damage to the Beale 135 that landed, most likely a collision while refueling.

That was a wild, disturbing ride. Let me down a rabbit hole to John David Norman and his child abuse network. Prosecutors decided to settle for Norman instead of pursuing his client list, which included some high-profile individuals. Also connected to at least two serial killers.

Knowing that Epstein had hidden cameras at all of his properties and seeing the FBI photos of hundreds of hard drives tells me that we haven’t even scratched the surface.
