Sensational headline, big anticlimax

I don't read every news source internationally however I always wonder just how often UK, German, US linked vessels, drones, etc are found within close proximity of Russia/China/Iran and how often they get reported.
Authoritarian regimes don’t act aggressively because they’re provoked; they act aggressively because projecting power and testing limits is part of how they survive internally. History is full of cases where no meaningful provocation existed at all.
Nazi Germany didn’t need Allied ships near its coast to invade Poland. Saddam Hussein didn’t need US aircraft nearby to invade Kuwait. Argentina didn’t need British naval pressure to seize the Falklands. Russia didn’t need NATO forces near Kyiv to annex Crimea in 2014 or launch a full invasion in 2022.
Tyrannies tend to frame any foreign presence as “provocation” after the fact, because it’s politically useful at home. Liberal democracies publish their movements precisely because they operate under scrutiny; authoritarian states act first and justify later.
Proximity makes for a convenient narrative, not a causal explanation.
What am i missing here? physics hackers, please explain.
does their claim of reaching 8 km/s in earth's atomsphere make sense? how is it possible without an insane amount of energy?
Besides, how are you going to deliver this energy in such a short time without frying the entire system, we're talking probably 1000A+ currents flowing in insane voltages.
You'd rather use TNT or some high explosive, that's what is usually done with artillery, and even then you don't get close to 8 km/s as far as i know.
You're right - Palestinians don't deserve to be murdered by people who don't like them.
They murdered primarily by Hamas, either directly or indirectly by their war tactics that prioritize civilian casualties.

I wonder where the Hamas members speaking out on killings of Israelis on Oct 7th ... It's always one sided.
Not saying Israeli soldiers have perfect values and obey all international laws, but every time I see a story in the Guardian , it's so one sided, one has to question their motives and objectives.
Saying 'Israeli soldiers' also leaves the readers to wonder - how many are there? 'soldiers' can also be 2-3 soldiers. Is there something about Israeli soldiers or society in general that is different than other soldiers of conflicting nations?
Do you have any evidence of any of this?
of what? bodies of women paraded on the streets?
