Military questioned use of makeshift office space where U.S. troops were killed

The first American service members to die in the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran were killed in an apparent Iranian drone attack on a makeshift office space in Kuwait, three U.S. military officials with direct knowledge of Iran's attack told CBS News.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the deadly strike was caused by a powerful Iranian weapon that made it through both air defenses and the operations center's fortifications.

"You have air defenses, and a lot's coming in, and you hit most of it," Hegseth said during a news conference at the Pentagon. "Every once in a while, you might have one, unfortunately, we call it a squirter, that makes its way through. And in that particular case, it happened to hit a tactical operations center that was fortified, but these are powerful weapons."

But the three U.S. military officials questioned the assertion that the building was adequately fortified. They told CBS News the operations center was a triple-wide trailer made into an office space — a common setup at U.S. bases abroad.

1. Heartbreaking..And what about the makeshift "blanket fort"?

A national security disaster.

" a makeshift room surrounded by black curtains and multiple maps of the region."

"Calling it 'the situation room at Mar-a-Lago' doesn't morph that blanket fort into a SCIF," Joyce Vance, law professor at the University of Alabama, posted on X. (Raw story article)

2. Kegsbreath and the orange pile of amphibian shit have no clue about the military

All they fucking see are sleek, fast glorious airplanes, big, rumbling tanks that go "vroom-vroom", big ships bristling with weapons, crisp, clean uniforms, pretty radar and weapons systems going "beep-bop-boop" and missiles that go "whoosh".

They have no fucking idea that 70-80% of the military, are Sailors, Soldiers, Airmen and Marines that man boxy little dingy trailers, night, after night and day, after day, doing the dregging important work that makes it all go.

3. So if I understand this

Iran can figure out that triple wide is US military even after we killed their leaders, but the US with advanced weaponry can't figure out that building was a school with nearly 300 kids in it.

And we are supposed to believe this.
