Anybody knows more about this alleged U.S. Reaper drone attack in Iraq against an alleged Iranian targets? The Reaper drone used a "Supersonic Ginsu Missile" or R9X.

What's the likelihood of this missile being used in Ukraine or God forbid, Russia itself? What's the advantage or advantages of this "HIGHLY CLASSIFIED MISSILE" according to this supposedly retired LT.Col. claim.

That is mostly to do with France weakening in general from ...
Speaking of France, a bit off topic,

CFA Franc was the currency developed by France for it's West African neo colonies. 14 African countries use it. The CFA was set up originally to prevent the Africans from suffering from the devaluation of the French Franc (FF) after WWII. The French called it "an act of generosity".

The setup mandates that 50% of these countries' foreign reserves always be deposited in the French Treasury, with the French being the sole controllers of the monetary policy of these 14 countries (even after their "independence"). The original exchange rate in 1944 was fixed at CFA 1 : 1.70 FF. Seemed favorable to Africa at first, but this was not to be as the French began to perpetually devalue the CFA every year.

Today, the exchange rate stands at CFA 655 : 1 FF. Devaluing the CFA allowed the French to continually plunder and loot the Africans, primarily their resources which became cheaper and cheaper for the French, and simultaneously, made it more and more difficult for the Africans to develop. As a result, these 14 countries stood (in 2021) with a combined population of 193 million with a combined GDP of $283 billion.

Oh.. and.. many African heads of states who tried to resist were toppled or killed. In recent years, West Africans have been trying to develop an independent single currency, looking at 2027 for it's introduction.

It's just a hellfire with an inert warhead used to assassinate targets with kinetic energy while lowering collateral damage. It's an extremely niche weapon only useful for targeted assassinations in areas where US drone can fly with impunity. US would be better off with HIMARS and Storm Shadow against Russian command nodes in Ukraine.

Just a kind reminder that Tucker Carlson's love affair of Russia is to push the US political class attention fully back to be against China vs being distracted with the Ukraine war.

No doubt about it: Tucker Carlson is a racist warmonger who wants the West fights China instead of Russia.

Some Western reporters are worse than their politicians in terms of gaslighting and brainwashing their audience. No wonder the credibility of Western MSM is falling apart.

LMAO.
