The clips actually show Putin on January 27, 2026, placing red roses at Piskaryovskoye Memorial Cemetery in St. Petersburg to honor the 82nd anniversary of the Nazi siege of Leningrad being lifted—and to remember his older brother Viktor, who died at age two from starvation during the blockade. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in U.S.-Israeli airstrikes on Tehran late Saturday, prompting Putin's sharp condemnation as a 'cynical violation' but no such memorial from him. While ordinary Russians left tributes at Iran's embassy in Moscow, the recycled footage—complete with fake news graphics—spread rapidly before users and fact-checkers corrected it by noting the cemetery's snowy hills and prior coverage.

Key Takeaway

Videos circulating online depict Putin laying flowers for Iran's slain leader, but they capture a poignant family moment from two months ago.

User ALUTHEDON shared CBS footage from Morley Safer's 1965 report on Marines razing 150 huts in Cam Ne, South Vietnam, asking why films depict U.S. troops as the good guys. Many countered with examples like Apocalypse Now's moral descent, Platoon's civilian massacres and rapes, and Full Metal Jacket's boot-camp brutality and urban carnage. Films such as The Deer Hunter and Born on the Fourth of July highlight trauma and regret, while even pro-war The Green Berets flopped; the discussion notes movies often center American views amid the war's heavy toll of 58,000 U.S. deaths and millions of Vietnamese casualties.

Key Takeaway

A clip of U.S. Marines burning huts in 1965 Vietnam sparked questions about movies always showing soldiers as heroes. Replies quickly pointed to decades of films that paint a much grimmer picture.
