1. William Crews is a Press Officer for the National Institute of Allergy & Infectious Diseases (NIAID). But for years Crews has been writing for RedState, an U.S Conservative political blog, and trashing the man who leads his agency — Fauci 2/

Under the ‘streiff’ pseudonym, Crews has contributed to the very same disinformation campaign, that his superiors at the NIAID say is a major challenge to widespread efforts to control a pandemic that has claimed nearly 200,000 U.S. lives. 3/

‘Under his pseudonym, Crews has derided his own colleagues as part of a left-wing anti-Trump conspiracy and vehemently criticized the man who leads his agency, whom he described as the “attention-grubbing and media-whoring Anthony Fauci.”

1/ I’ve spent nearly a year operating in Afghan. There are major lessons here. Thoughts in this thread:

• The U.S & Partners have been rebuilding Afghan National Security forces (ANSF) for over 15yrs. Everything from ANA (Army), ANP (police) & counter terrorism/narcotics

2/
2/ An assessment by U.S/Partners of the ANSF’s ability to take on the Taliban is critical. After 15years of massive costs, lives, time & commitment, there has to be a reality check. Is it possible to train another countries security forces give huge cultural disparities?

3/
3/ Afghanistan for example comprises tribal entities. So an individual of a certain tribe identifies w/ the customs & judicial processes of their tribe. They don’t identify primarily as an Afghan. So how do you build a sovereign force based on sovereignty?

@LizSly , a few thoughts.

Thread #Beirut

1) strikes from IDF jets would likely be by precision guided munitions (PGMs).

2) Types of PGM range from a laser guided or GPS guided bomb, to a cruise missile for example.

2/
2. #Beirut

3) Delivery of a PGM bomb usually involves a release from 20,000ft+. The pilot/WSO designates, or a JTAC on the ground can if laser. If GPS, coordinate is inputted.

4) if Cruise missile, then a standoff launch is the likely SOP. IDF strikes on Damascus for example.
3. #Beirut

5) it’s highly unlikely a strike would be launched using unguided munitions at low level.

6) You can also hear the high pitched whiz of a PGM just before it hits the target in the final phase of flight. Film would also likely capture this.
