Brown Moses posted:I was interviewed by the author, and I provided him with lots of material, including a few thousand Twitter DMs Caro sent me, sometimes 100 at a time. It was basically like a unfiltered stream of his thoughts, by the end I only read them in case he started talking about the toddlers at the kindergarten being CIA agents. I did seriously consider at one point he might try to hunt me down and kill me. im remembering the pms that caro would send me asking about my medic school and this was 100% how it was, just paragraph after paragraph of him just venting also he was banned by GD american for his own safety, since at the end it was really apparent that he was unhinged and truely needed help

I think someone popped smoke, it's white and kind of bubbles up, and looks like it's at an alley crossing. e- I went back and looked and maybe it's an airburst? Definitely smoke or WP if I had to guess.

Didn't his "medic" poo poo go pretty far. I know there's a pic of him bloody holding an IV bag or something. Wasn't he on about doing surgery, emergency trachs, and chest tubes and doing them himself after watching YouTube videos?

If you look to the right and upper part of the screen at 1:50ish, you can see what looks like a small airburst followed by a cloud of white smoke, maybe a half mile away from the main blast.

I think he lanced a couple of boils, or irrigated and stitched wounds. As for major surgery he may have assisted.

Was there ever confirmation that he's dead? What's the chance he's still alive in prison?

Reverand maynard posted:Was there ever confirmation that he's dead? What's the chance he's still alive in prison? After this many years? Probably pretty drat low. His body would be easy to shove in among the executed Syrians and they could play dumb about not being able to find him. It's not like anyone who matters in the US government gives two shits about a crazy conspiracy theorist disappearing after trying to join the rebels. Trying to fight the Syrians means that he's basically a willing combatant, rather than a kidnapped Western journalist.

I've seen a couple of articles call it chlorine, but I don't know where that detail came from originally. That smoke is loving weird though.

Chlorine gas is a pretty distinct yellow. It's pretty much dead on to be nitrogen dioxide, which is plenty poisonous all by itself. In all probability though it's probably just darker colored clay soil dust that convected its way to the outside of the dust cloud because it was closer to the bomb and thus hotter/faster moving.

Interestingly I was also thinking Nitrogen Dioxide from that yellow ochre color. Neat but yeah could be just dust and probably more likely.

There was some other tunnel bomb video from a few months ago that had a huge cloud of what appeared to be nitrogen dioxide puff out after detonation as well. Edit: there were no ICBMs on this page so I fixed it bij fucked around with this message at 21:18 on Dec 12, 2015 |
