Analysis: "Seven Lies about Israel’s Attack on Iran"
"I was a US intelligence analyst. Trump and Netanyahu are lying to you." ~Harrison Mann
The lies started flying before the Israeli bombs did.
"If we want any hope of interrupting a disastrous cycle of escalation, we need to intercept the volley of lies that have already been launched out of Tel Aviv and Washington."

Israel entered into war with Iran in a way that creates the conditions for American leverage, hoping to drag the U.S. into all-out confrontation. But even though Israel started the war, it can't control how Trump will respond.

People almost never recognize the fallacy at play here:

That's just the labor theory of value.
Spending a lot of money means a lot of human labor on something. And it has never meant that it's automatically good.
Sudden, large amounts of money often implies mal-investment. Or stated more bluntly, we're wasting people's lives many times with this stuff.

The Death of Vaccines in Trump's America!
America's vaccine policy has been set for decades, with patients, providers, scientists and insurers more or less in sync on the merits of immunizations.
In the last several weeks, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has upended long-standing norms, introducing uncertainty into a once-reliable system.

In captivity, the Russians took away his finger, "justifying" it by saying that "he no longer needed it."
These are Russian methods. This is how they treat all Ukrainians. And, in particular, with people from Donetsk region who did not ask to be "liberated" and who defended their native, Ukrainian region from them.

Airplane mode typically doesn't turn off GPS reception, so location services may need to be turned off separately. Otherwise, photos in airplane mode may still have EXIF location data (for example).
Airplane mode may not turn off bluetooth, so verify that is off.
Even then I wouldn't trust it. Airplane mode isn't designed for privacy, and it has evolved over time to be more permissive. I wouldn't be surprised if some phones still send an occasional IMEI ping even in airplane mode.
