So how reliable are the unnamed the Mexican TV sources?

[dfwgator]

I’d trust them more than ours.

[ansel12]

According to the headline your source has already traced the serial numbers of weapons we have shipped to Europe and that arrived in Ukraine, and that have now been found in Mexico.

That is quite a source.

[tlozo]

I’d trust them more than ours.

LOL, well the crazy Mexican president would like you to see the pictures of the wood-spirit creature he believes in.

Mexico's president shares photo of what he says "appears to be an aluxe," a "mystical" woodland spirit-February 27, 2023

Mexico City — Mexico's president posted a photo on his social media accounts Saturday showing what he said appeared to be a mythological woodland spirit similar to an elf. President Andrés Manuel López Obrador did not seem to be joking when he posted the photo of an "Aluxe," a mischievous woodland spirit in Mayan folklore.

López Obrador wrote the photo "was taken three days ago by an engineer, it appears to be an aluxe," adding "everything is mystical."

The nighttime photo shows a tree with a branch forming what looks like a halo of hair, and what may be stars forming the figure's eyes.

López Obrador has long expressed reverence for indigenous cultures and beliefs. Engineers and workers are busy in the Yucatan peninsula constructing a tourist train — a pet project of the president's. The president's tweet suggested it was one of the engineers working on that project who took the photo, which López Obrador shared alongside another picture of a pre-colonial-era statue depicting an Aluxe.

As they say,” READ THE F’N MANUAL”

The online manual for the AT-4 is here:

I’d guess an AT-4 anti-tank weapon could be used against Trump’s border wall.

[Krosan]

That was whipped-up fake news and it later turned out the only actual cases were Russian military men getting caught with stolen weapons that they stole from their own army and took to Russia.

[Liberty Valance]

Oh my. This sounds eerily similar to the new Dale Brown novel I’m reading: “Weapons of Opportunity”.

[ansel12]

Information was added to the tweet, why is this being posted here?

“This tweet misrepresents the information given in the video by adding personal opinion.

“The video never reports there are “dozens” nor mentions they were “originally shipped to Ukraine”.

[ansel12]

It seems to be a fake thread that got onto FR.

I saw another thread about Fox New’s Greta using a fake photo but when reading the thread, posters were saying that she hasn’t worked at Fox for 7 years.

FR needs to tighten standards.

[PIF]

And their trust worthy sources are?

[Vaduz]

Who in the government would do such a thing.

Dad guess what.................................
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[MikelTackNailer]

Have to keep in mind that 8 BILLION dollars worth of weaponry Biden made our forces abandon to the Taliwhackers in Afghanistan. That stuff is going to end up somewhere and most of those somewheres not friendly to us.

[mom.mom]

Ukraine had more than they needed? How about drones?

So we’ll send them more to make up for the loss?

Just send them to Mexico - cheaper freight.

[Leep]

“eventual war along the southern border”

Why? How?
Most of the invaders are already in the US.. or will be.. as per the sanctuary federal government.. including the sanctuary criminal Cartels which have totally set up shop from the Southern borders to California.

[subterfuge]

I think it’s a chupacabra.

[DUMBGRUNT]

—”FR needs to tighten standards.”

That cow left the barn at the time of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Now we have a gang of interlopers attempting to spread BS and dissension.

Most of them realize the BS will be recognized but is a wedge to be pounded with additional BS.

Why be an anti-American on FreeRepublic?

[Boogieman]

“That’s not proof they came from Ukraine, only a strong basis for believing they did.”

Nah, it’s not even that. It’s just what you want to believe, so you are looking for rationalizations to justify believing it absent any evidence.

[Paal Gulli]

If you read the source story (not the Twitter regurgitation), it contradicts the headline. They admit they can't be sure where the weapons came from, meaning the headline is deliberately deceptive.
