Or they just took IR imagery from Afghanistan or somewhere and told the judge it was whomever. How do you ID people using IR? All you can see is a heat signature!

Oh come on. We all know that long distance aerial imagery always provides a totally accurate view of what is happening on the ground. That's why the Biden administration was able to target a group of ISIS terrorists in Kabul earlier this month and blow up their car with a missile.

Oh, nevermind, the car was actually full of kids and a person who assisted the US in Afghanistan.

But you can definitely tell exactly what is going on from aerial images.

No, actually, latest gen IR sensors are very clear, and they do not simply show a heat signature. They are capable of differentiating down to .01 degree F, and the displays are in HD so to the tune of 20+ megapixels.

15 years ago in AFG and IRQIR sensors aboard USAF 130s could show us who was on the ground doing stuff, to the degree that we could Id facial features, I can only assume todays gear is exponentially more better....
