WTF is Caroline Orr? No one knows. She seems to be some kind of SM crusader against - what she believes to be - DISINFORMAITION.
She follow 3000 accounts - a Who-is-Who of Russiangaters, Anti-Russian PR Trolls, Atlantic Counsil, #IntegrityInitiative ... Browder ...
She just wrote 5000 words about Dr. @Thomas_Binder's ERROR, for which he apologized a year ago. Pretty HOAXY bubbles show how other "DIS-information" spread across the globe in a flash via @VanessaBeeley - and that's her hidden point, I guess.
Since she does not tell her readers which 10 articles are involved, it is unfortunately impossible to find out whether these were actually false reports. But that would be important, because April 2018 was all about #Douma.

...and Orr tweeted FAKE-NEWS that spread in a flash.
She spread FAKE-NEWS about Assange and Menafort:
She believes that 1 Facebook-Ad among 25000 per user toppled the election. I guess, she is a bad loser like Hillary.
She lies about the role of the CIA or lives on the moon perhaps.
And last but not least she calls the Bellingcat article about Douma "another painstakingly detailed report".

...and she is right. This is why someone might hate Bellingcat. Because this article is UTTER NONSENSE!
Example: Bellingcat claims that the Douma attack is authentic only because it appears to look like other attacks, e.g. Kafr Zita April 2014. The Video is no longer available but I can help a little later.
All videotaped Kafr Zita "chlorine attacks" show high explosives, fireballs, rising smoke. CHLORINE DOESN'T RISE!
...and high explosives burn the chlorine away as Iraqi Truck-bombers had to learn earlier. Their entire truck load of chlorine cylinders had zero effect but noise.
Bellingcat presents the following cylinder that allegedly caused these high-explosive flashes, fireballs and some rising bullshit.
In another article Bellingcat even describes the mode of function:

Just for the fun of it: Please note that
1) the valve is surrounded by the protective steel shell at the back of the barrel between the fins
2) the detonating cord is not exploded
3) the valve is broken anyway
And this is the Bellingcat description, how it works. The description itself is not wrong, but how could the unexploded detonating cord create that flash of light and fireball? How could it disconnect the valve? Obviously, the two things do not fit together.
And yes, of course we've seen it before. And that's for those men who, according to OPCW, dug in a hole with gas masks without filters. And there they found exactly such a bomb. ...and several meters of un-detonated Primacord laid accidentally in the garden. A lot of Primacord!
So it is fair to say that Mrs. Orr (whatever her qualification is) is spreading terrible mischief among her 300k followers. She never apologized for those mountains of bullshit. Wouldn't that be enough reason to delete her account, like the Abkhazian weather report, Ben?
