Kris Osborn at The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Asia* Several distinct factors would decide the outcome. *Key Point*: It would be the largest engagement the world has seen in 100 years. A recent think tank wargame explores the prospect of a massive war between China and America and Japan in 2030, introducing many war-time questions about submarines, amphibious attack, surface ships and fifth-generation fighters. According to a story in Foreign Policy, the Center for New American Security’s wargame unfolds as follows: *“…A Chinese flotilla lands 50 soldiers on Uotsuri Jima, an island in the East Chi... more »

Donald Trump Was Right To Call Out Defense Industry Influence On The Pentagon

Mandy Smithberger at The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Mandy Smithberger* *Politics, Americas* The best way for any president to honor our troops s to provide a real check on the influence of the defense industry to make sure our decisions are based on our national security, not what will be most profitable for contractors. President Donald Trump’s recent remarks that top Pentagon officials continue to push for war because they want to keep defense contractors “happy” has drawn a firestorm of criticism by those who would like to conflate the remarks with the allegation that the president is anti-military. What’s actually uncomforta... more »

Forget Torpedos And Cruise Missiles, Russia Planned To Destroy NATO With Nuclear Artillery

Charlie Gao at The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *Security, * Cannons and much more. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Soviets would continue developing tactical nukes for use in artillery, but later shells utilized miniaturized warheads that allowed nukes to fit in compact projectiles in the Soviet-standard 152mm and 203mm calibers. Likewise, the United States also made nuclear shells in the 155mm and 203mm calibers after abandoning the 260mm M65 cannon. In the 1950s, both NATO and Warsaw Pact doctrine focused on the employment of tactical nuclear weapons. Truly strategic nuclear weapons and the doctrine ... more »

Early in the morning of October 29, 1936 a column of T-26 tanks went rattling down the road towards Seseña, a Spanish town on the outskirts of Madrid ostensibly held by forces loyal to the Republican g... more »

Caleb Larson at The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Caleb Larson* *History, Eurasia* [image: Wikimedia Commons] Though the K-7 was never commercially successful, it showed that the Soviet Union could domestically design and manufacture innovative aircraft designs at a time when dependence on foreign technology was considered an important vulnerability. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The design was not the only innovative aspect of the plane, the materials it was made of were also unique.

Fight Or Die: Left With No Choice, Polish Prisoners Fought Their Nazi Captors To The Death

Warfare History Network at The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* At Treblinka and Sobibor, prisoners doomed to death struck against their SS and Ukrainian oppressors. By the spring of 1943, the Nazi deaths camps in eastern Poland—Sobibor, Belzac, and Treblinka—were running out of victims. These camps were main centers of Operation Reinhard.

Operation Reinhard was, by the perverse standards of the “final solution,” an... more »

FACT: Russia Has The World's Second-Largest Airborne Fighting Force

*Charlie Gao* *Security, Europe* Transport and logistics are key to battle. *Key Point:* Moscow has air-borne units and enough transport planes to get its army around Eurasia quickly. When it comes to being air-mobile, the Russian military is second only to the U.S. military. According to the 2018 Military Balance Report, Russia fields 177 heavy to medium transport aircraft. This stands in contrast to America’s 658, China’s 84, France’s 46, and the UK’s 44.

Why the F-111 Aardvark Was The Air Force's Premier Strike Aircraft

Charlie Gao at The National Interest - 1 day ago
*Charlie Gao* *Security, Americas* It served its country well. The F-111 Aardvark was the U.S. Air Force’s premier strike aircraft for the majority of the Cold War. It served in practically every conflict from Vietnam forwards, until it was replaced by the F-15E Strike Eagle. It also served Strategic Air Command in a limited role as a strategic bomber. But what made the F-111 great? Did the United States truly lose any capability by retiring it?

On this week’s installment of Scheer Intelligence, the American Prospect editor joins host Robert Scheer to discuss how corporations peddle the idea that consumers have the “freedom” to buy whatever they want in order to distract the public as their rights are increasingly eroded.

Terrace at PopularResistance.Org - 1 day ago
Recent weeks have seen a dramatic escalation in the U.S.’ stance towards tech companies from the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

The Unannounced Death of the Green New Deal: Part 1 – What Happened to the People’s Plan?

"You could say that the Green New Deal died when the Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force recommendations came through, or perhaps that was the moment we knew that the Jemez Principles and the principles of a Just Transition had been abandoned more than a year before?
