This site is down right now, but it was a pretty good resource of the goings on.

??? You don’t need a credit card to view it, though possibly a Google or youtube account.

Every time I try to view any YouTube link like that, it asks me to verify with a credit card.

I figure they are trying to discourage the oldsters like me.

Weird. I just have to click on youtube and view it… though I think I am logged into Google, which logs me into youtube. :confused:

I can watch it while logged into Google, too, but I know they’ve required a credit card or official id on other videos, also while logged into Google.

Apparently there’s tons of fake war footage out there too - video game footage being passed off as combat videos, and people in the UK have been caught providing “live” video of the rooftops of their own towns, adding gunshot and explosion noises and asking for money…

The owner of this YT account has requested that it be age restricted. You now have to be logged into YT to view,

Try these. Sometimes i can get Piped to circumvent the age restriction, other times it fails.
There is nothing graphic in these videos even though you know people are being killed wherever those missiles land.

Probably. They know the exact volume and weight of your last bowel movement, so…

Can’t have kids seeing real war or they won’t join up later.
