    This was a MASSIVE eye opening shock to me. You watch NCIS or any pro military show and they’ll pan to Baghdad or anything middle east and you’ll see crumbling buildings or warzone with a sepia filter. I was got smacked when I saw a real skyline photo of Baghdad, and istanbul, and most cities. Our media is dead set on continuing the thought of these empty deserts

        I honestly had no idea they had electricity. That’s how bad the propaganda is

            Wish I was friend, thought it was all single story white stone housing. We were told America is number one, never saw a skyline or how big it was.
