I’m lost, was THAAD developed in Korea?

Nah, Iran destroyed many of our THAAD systems in West Asia and rhe US took one we had placed in South Korea to move it to that region.

Oh wow I'm sure south Korea doesn't like that

South Korea is a US vassal state they don't have a say.

In the middle of the yearly "scare the shit out of NK by moving a bunch of weapons and troops around and fly nuclear-capable bombers at the border" too.

Which is weird because usually we do it a month or 2 later to coincide with planting season.

For those not in the know, the original post was about how someone kept losing their outdoor cats to coyotes and kept adopting more, so was basically feeding cats to coyotes.

Keep your cats indoors folks, will keep them from killing birds and keep bigger things from killing them. Don't want your pet subjected to the food chain? Don't make them participate in it.

Also, now that I think about it, how did the shelter not blacklist them after the second cat they lost? They kept just giving cats to this person knowing they don't bother to keep them safe?

Wrong. These cats were for killing vermin outside. Guy should have got a couple of big dogs.

Source: kept a bunch of barn cats alive for many years in coyote country.

Eventually dumping the USA will make them safer

Many? Wasn't it only 2?

4 iirc

Nobody knows for sure except the US gvmt at the moment - but from what can be seen, radar sites containing equipment for two separate THAAD systems were damaged, with one having a THAAD radar unit that was confirmed to have been damaged - we don't know the extent however, beyond that it's mostly intact in the few images. Likely this means one battery has been knocked out for the foreseeable future, but the second one may still be fully operational or it may be reliant on supplemental radar or it might have been denied the supplemental radar.

We just don't know any details beyond that at most two systems may have been damaged, one of them badly.

Every single one of the radars Iran destroys is priceless, literally; the US could not purchase them if they wanted to thanks to the Chinese rare earths export ban, they can't be manufactured anymore*

• It's the leading theory, could also be that the US military industrial complex is finally breaking under its own weight

I didn't know this. How incredibly grim
