    If some rando was invading your country…

    Poor people though, they probably got no clue what crazy death flies on that helicopter. The USA was supposed to gTFO but now with two downed birds and a missing pilot, that’s going to be boots on the ground… No wait, hold on, Pedo has other plans…and we’re invading Canada! For aluminum!

    Millions of dollars spend on ground to air missile suppression tech, but no plans for a farmer plinking at them with 50 year old rifle. I remember images of soldiers in Vietnam sitting on their helmets while in helicopters to keep their nuts from being shot off by farmers with old single shot rifles.

    Do Iranians have limited access to internet? Or is it all turned off? When we do get videos like this one, how is it reaching us? Some sort of Telegram channel I imagine.

      The internet is restricted but it’s possible to access outside media using a VPN and some other more complicated modifications. It’s quite difficult to do so but those with the means to do so can access the outer internet.

      However their domestic internet is available for people to use. It’s also possible for people in the West, if they have an Iranian SIM card, to connect to Iranian internet applications.

        Same way in AES countries, if you’re educated enough for VPN you can access to the internet but if you can’t then you’re probably too naive for the world.

          As far as I know, it’s actually a little more complicated then just using a VPN, but I’m not sure about the specific process.
