@zephyreks I've already read it. The countermeasures the US took certainly contributed to the lack of data collection.
@zephyreks You could only be seriously confused about where I get my "impression" from if you're an absolute idiot considering I included the link to the BBC article where I got that "impression".
Yeah, we agree that it was not collected. But, you keep leaving out the part about where they tried. Make sure you put that in your talking points next time. They tried but failed. Ergo, they did not collect any intelligence.
@zephyreks There you go again. You're either blatantly trying to mislead people or you're an idiot.
"But "it has been our assessment now that it did not collect while it was transiting the United States or over flying the United States".
He said the efforts the US took to mitigate any intelligence gathering "contributed" to the balloon's failure to gather sensitive information."
@zephyreks ...but it wasn't from lack of trying... the countermeasures the US used kept it from collecting any sensitive intelligence. That's the part you propagandists keep leaving out.
@yogthos The best you've got is Wikipedia, eh? LOL And, clearly you didn't read it. It provides zero verbiage that indicates genocide was not happening in Yugoslavia. And don't get me wrong. I'm never a proponent of war or bombing, but acting like this event is somehow precedent for what Russia is doing in Ukraine is ridiculous. The US and NATO are not perfect. But they've always worked to prevent genocide, unlike Russia.

@yogthos Give me one credible source that says there was no genocide going on in Yugoslavia when they were bombed by NATO. Go on, I'll wait. 😂 Just to be clear, I didn't ask for one that says Milosevic was absolved. I said one saying there was no genocide occurring when NATO bombed them.
@yogthos lol researchgate is a repository that houses papers and articles from across the globe. Anyone can post a research paper there. Just because you cherry-picked one full of misinformation doesn’t mean it’s a reliable resource. You’ve already demonstrated a penchant to use communist propaganda. Why would I ever think that any of the other new sources you use would be reliable? 😂 get real. 😆
@yogthos lol inside or outside doesn’t matter. Facts matter. And this is a routinely misleading outlet. It’s no wonder you’re clueless about international affairs. 😂🤷♂️
@yogthos oh, it was the same excuse. The difference was there was no genocide in Ukraine like there was in Yugoslavia.
@yogthos it doesn’t take mental gymnastics to know that NATO and the United States doesn’t annex other countries in whole or in part. They cooperate with the international community to prevent genocide and mass murder. Unlike Russia, who annexed part of Ukraine and committed mass murder among other #warcrimes. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_crimes_in_the_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine#:~:text=the%20UN%20Human%20Rights%20Monitoring,some%20of%20them%20summarily%20executed.
@zephyreks How old are you, 12? You could have just said, I know you are but what am I?
