They are involved in deciding whether atrocities and attacks take place or not. From Germany. Some of the targets are almost charmingly DIY, with basic faces painted on planks of wood draped with clothes to make them appear more legit; others appear like something out of a full-color comic book, in realistic faux-villages crafted by Hollywood set designe
