Jesus H Christ. I wonder how many fatalities there really are.
My thoughts at this time are with those families whose loved ones have died. May they Rest In Peace.

I know what I’m hearing from sources I consider credble, and I know that’s being challenged from someone else I consider, individually, very credible. What I believe right now is the situation is fluid, the situation definitely sucks, we’ve probably lost troops, the most informed people aren’t here talking about it, we’re in an info lag and we’re all waiting for solid word and hoping for the least bad outcome against a lot of shitty indicators. So I’ll keep those affected in my thoughts and hope against hope for the best.
