Again, how is that our problem?  This isn't a game.  These are the lives of American soldiers.  Russian tanks, Kenyan purchase, Somali pirates.  Why exactly do Americans need to be in danger here?

NATO. Ukraine wants to join. Russia doesn't want them to...

Fruit fly (or similar) crawling around on the lens. The "light" (aka blurred fruit fly) never passes behind anything, nor does it change size as it goes further away from the camera.

Yup there are quite a number of similar video's on youtube etc. Esp. those camera's that are inside a small dome are causing these images.

Yeah I was amazed that the security people said they had no idea what that spot on the image was. How can you NOT know that that was a bug on the lens? Still it's cute and whaaacky to see how people react to something like that.
