Postol has written another objectively bad article about Khan Shiekhoun.
However, this time he’s claiming it’s going to be published by @SGSJournal.
The article, & his other statements, are absolutely chock full of pretty obvious errors. bellingcat.com/news/mena/2019…

@SGSJournal The central premise, that the crater at Khan Sheikhoun was caused by an improvised 122mm HE rocket, is supported by a simulation.
The problem? The simulated crater doesn’t actually look like the crater at Khan Sheikhoun.

@SGSJournal There are multiple other very obvious errors, not least that this crater doesn’t look like any other 122mm we’ve seen (we’ve looked at a lot) and the outside of what Postol thinks is a “rocket” is heavily textured, and clearly not a rocket. 
@SGSJournal It seems pretty clear that Mr Postol is attempting to regain some kind of credibility after other people consistently ripped his theories to pieces in the public forum.
To be frank, I am astounded @SGSJournal has chosen to publish this. If you read our article, you’ll see why.
