30. No, it is just about one story. The story this thread is about.

That story is that an anonymous person who also claims Oct 7th was a false flag operation is lying about where Isfahan is, and using that as their "evidence" that the rescue was really a failed attempt to seize uranium. This is not an accusation from someone with any credibility - and India Today notes that. But the OP claims "overwhelming evidence" that it was about uranium. That is the "weird" thing here.

I if claimed that Trump was running Uighur slave labour camps, and I had no credible evidence for that, I'd hope several DUers would pull me up, and point out the holes in my claims. Even though Trump is evil and corrupt enough to be willing to do it.
