Images Floating About

Apparently, individuals who cannot write a cogent sentence to defend their case are capable of using ChatGpt.  You can mock us, assholes.  But can you defend your own position in a manner which will cause me to respect you?

Somalia - that lil' shit hole that nobody cares about, has banned Israeli flag ships from the Strait of Bab el Mandeb.

This is a signal.  But for the life of me - I cannot capture its meaning.

An Iran military site captioned this as their "Picture of the Day" and included the video.  The narrative was that when Grand Ayatollah Khamenei was passing through Berlin on his way to Iran, someone dumped a can of tomato sauce on his head.  Since history repeats itself,  Reza Pahlavi received the same treatment.

Many years ago, when Prince George was still a toddler I took note that a close up photograph of him had been taken by a press photographer.  I mentioned to a friend, "If a photographer can reach him, so can an individual with an intent to harm him."   We later saw a tradition of images being released which were taken by Princess Catherine - so perhaps a tighter rein of security was placed around the young lad.

So in my mind, it is a security failure when anyone gets close enough to Reza Pahlavi to assault him with a simple tomato-based sauce.  Situational awareness was lacking.
