No, Politico.  Your using “Iranian vessels pointed lasers” (twice) does not report what Iran did—Iran shot its lasers at the helicopter.  Accurate reporting leads to better outcomes.  “‘Unsafe and unprofessional’: U.S. chides Iran after American helicopter hit with lasers,” Politico, 9-28-23.  See other articles in the news such as “Iran ‘Laser Attacks’ US Navy Chopper; US Condemns Iran for ‘Unsafe & Unprofessional’ Act,” Eurasian Times, 9-29-23.

Really funny.  “Iranian Navy Reiterates Plans for a Base in Antarctica,” Maritime Excutive, 9-28-23.

Not funny.  “Russia’s secret munition route for Iranian weapons,” Frontline, 9-28-23.
