Me: Huh new 9/11 footage

(Watches)

lol some American accents sound so goofy. The retired NYPD cop lamenting that 9/11 is happening during his vacation is great.

I wonder who this uploader is? He identified that plane as United + 737 so confidently

Oh he's a PMC USAF/DoD freak

:blob-no-thoughts:

(Resumes video)

Me: Huh I wonder why Kevin included the other NYC sightseeing clips in his video, including the iconic Times Square US Armed Forces Recruiting Station, with 'God Bless America' playing over top.

Huh that's an interesting message on the MTV billboard ('Enjoy the Performance'), above the Blowout Video store, before the camera zooms into cartoon monocle-wearing capitalist peanut mascot.

Huh a classic NYC horse and buggy pulled by a white (pale) horse.

:sus-deep:

Me: Let's see what else Kevin has uploaded

(Uploads > Most Recent: Horned Owl

Me: Oh cool a tribute for Kevin's buddies in Iraq's Operation Horned Owl, where they deployed one-of-a-kind experimental drones in combat ops. I wonder if it has any relation to the USAF/CIA Great Horned Owl program to develop unmanned aircraft? ( link link )

:sus-torment:

A Voice from the Other Side: The owls are not what they seem
