Could be a false flag to ban DJI

First the airport shutdowns, now kids getting killed during xmas...

Seems like its prelude to full drone ban

Halon's razor, it's just Americans being Americans. Banning drones hurts American drone industry far more than DJI.
Orlando is most likely someone with a jammer, probably GPS, only way to explain multiple failures at same time.
Probably related to the recent drone fear campaign.
Although the out of control after jamming is probably thanks to American quality software for failsafe behaviour

I see lots of people calling bs on this study because, "You wouldn't get that impression from English language social media sites." Well, there in lies your problem isn't it? On top of that, ask how many of those haters online actually reside in the country they claim to be representing.

Iran faces energy shortage as factories, schools, govt offices close​

Iran is now facing a major energy crisis that is forcing schools, government offices, and factories to shutter and cutting power and heating to ordinary Iranians. The New York Times (NYT) reported on 22 December that the Islamic Republic has found itself in a “full blown energy emergency” coinciding with recent regional setbacks.

Very bad news for Iran, which does not have the capability to transport its own presidents in helicopters newer than 1970s American models that crash, or to repair its own pipelines that get blown up by Israel. People have talked of a "China-Russia-Iran" alliance, but if China really wants an alliance with Iran, it is going to have to step up and provide money for Iran to invest and do things like repair its pipelines & restore its power generation capacity. Remember, it was economic stagnation that killed Assad's popularity and led no one to be willing to fight for him. The Iranian government may also be toppled unless its economy can turn around. And if Iran falls and is replaced by a pro-American government, China's geopolitical status in the region will be badly weakened.

Also, it sends a terrible message to the entire world when countries that get sanctioned by the Americans keep falling into an economic abyss. It tells everyone to stay in line for fear of being sanctioned.

A DPP MP screams "why you want to be Chinese dogs" at Pan-Blue MPs when a reporter points out the writing on her jacket about loving Taiwan is in Simplified Chinese and her jacket was likely purchased from Taobao.

What are your thoughts on, for instance, when countries that aren't even sanctioned by Americans, such as America's Nato partners, are falling into an economic abyss?

Or is this a classic case of "if this is what its doing to us, imagine what it's doing to them?"
