jonwilly Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I was unaware that large 'Drones' where available commercially. I suspect that relatively few are made so I would imagine that tracking who has bought the ones built would be a 'Simple' police investigation and remains from the drones that carried out the attack will be found, more police investigation. Remarkable accuracy on critical points in the production facilities. john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boonrawdcnx Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 The world is awash with oil they ran out of places where they can store it already - only lies and manipulation are keeping the oil price where it is when it should be around 15-20$ - they probably staged the attack themselves with the help of the US to drive up the oil price. Wait for it - they will try to blame Iran for the attack! Soon a large part of the world will be 100% renewable and then they can drink there black poison.

There is a big difference between static and dynamic energy, if you care to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too big to be electrical powered, which is what I think of as drones. john Look here at some US drones, they are fairly large UAV. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AAI_RQ-7_Shadow https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UAVs_in_the_U.S._military Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riyadh accuses Iran of arming the Houthis, a charge denied by the group and Tehran. Iran is certainly not going to "own up" to it. What better chance than now to drive the Shi'ite out of the area?

I'm sure US companies will be profiteering, US shale is wide open and the wells are dying off quick, no opportunity to produce more oil, certainly not in the short term - no worries - the "military complex" arms manufacturers will step up to the plate & have yet another chance to sell their wares!

Hallelujah, enjoy it as it won't stay up for very long unless things develop horribly! Trump along with "shale oil" have destroyed the price of oil in recent years, Trump looks like he will be around for a while so hopefully the shale oil wells will become uneconomical, be shut down due to environmental reasons or just dry up!

If the drone gets shot down, it is far cheaper than the loss of an expensive aircraft and crew members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
