Looks like your source sucks. AI determined with 99% confidence the video is fake.

"Yes, this video is confirmed to be an AI-generated fake. Multiple independent fact-checking organizations have analyzed and debunked this exact footage.

Fact-Check Investigations

Misbar's Forensic Analysis:
According to a verification report by Misbar, the footage originates from a TikTok account known as "Naksu-ah", which explicitly specializes in posting synthetic, AI-generated political content.

AI Detection Scans:
Deepfake detection software (including Hive Moderation) flagged the clip with a 99% likelihood of containing synthetic elements.

Visual Glitches (The Giveaway):
Forensics shared by Yahoo News Fact Checks pointed out that the video was likely generated using OpenAI's Sora.

A massive physical glitch occurs in the video:
despite liquid being poured and the flag being set on fire, the fabric of the flag remains completely undamaged and does not burn away.

Watermark Concealment:
The original AI generation watermark in the lower-right quadrant was intentionally masked or covered up by the skull emoji visible on the right sidebar of the screen.

Origin and Context
The video initially went viral on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok. It was distributed maliciously to fabricate a narrative of anti-American actions by the IDF amid ongoing, volatile diplomatic conflicts in the Middle East."

Source might suck, there is no way for me to know that. Im not a tech guy at all. I cant verify images, half the shit on the net is fake , the other half says its not . understand, it was not done with malice , because I cant contest what your saying is right or wrong I will give you the benifit because I cant verify one way or the other . So cut me a little slack pertaining to fake images . I dont need fake images to make a point , just didnt know it was fake .

Yeah, I don't know of a consistently reliable media outlet. Too many people shape the truth or present their report in a manner to serve an interest. Some sources lie for their benefit.

In this case I believe the cell phone call from an American who just sailed through the Strait. Nothing to gain or lose by just telling it like it like he saw it.

In this case, it does seem his account aligns more closely with Centcom PR and the Vance interview than the IRGC release or potential clickbait from various media. (Go Figure ... lol)

I have seen reporting during this conflict from multiple media sources that I flat out knew was not true. (Not believe was untrue, I knew was untrue.) I believe some outlets were passing on unverified information to be an early broadcaster, some sources go outrageous for clicks but others broadcast or flagrantly broad ast inormation they knew was inaccurate or false for a selfish or strategic benefit.

Then add into it what the media outlet was told from the source could be sketchy as well.
