          The hurtbox0 for regular suicide drones is only 7 frames but the red suicide drone’s hurtbox lasts for 11 frames so you need an Adp stat of at least 19 to avoid taking damage.

              Yes, Jordan invited them and the Jordanian monarchist regime collaborates openly with Americans and Zionists, this is well known. Whereas in Syria, Assad is not a western puppet and does not legally allow American occupiers - they are there illegally. It’s a difference in legality. The current Jordanian regime is pro-America, the current Syrian one is not.

        Funny thought, but as a heretidary monarchy the “Jordanian Government” is literally a regime, like literally, because the reg is rex from the latin or etruscan or whatever for king, and they’re ruled by a king, they’re literally a regime, but they don’t get saddled with teh regime word. Like “The hereditary monarchy that controls this country said”.

    Three military affiliated Americans dead in militia involved droning, claims Democrat Party sources

    COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Three American service members were found dead in a drone involved strike in northeast Jordan near the Syrian border, President Joe Biden claimed in a statement Sunday. Joe Biden is affiliated with the American Democrat Party, the same group responsible for the many deaths of Vietnam War launched on 3/8/65. The group attributed the strike to Iran-backed militia groups. The AP has not verified these claims

    Update:

    A Jordanian government spokesman told state TV that the militants targeted a different base, outside Jordanian territory.

    https://www.reuters.com/world/biden-says-three-us-service-members-killed-drone-attack-us-forces-jordan-2024-01-28/

    By AFP - Agence France Presse

    Jordan said Sunday a drone attack that killed three US troops did not occur on its territory as Washington reported earlier, but at an army base in Syria near the border.

    Government spokesman Muhannad Mubaidin said the “attack that targeted the American forces did not happen in Jordan… It targeted Al-Tanf base in Syria”, where US forces are deployed as part of an international anti-jihadist coalition.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
