According to Russian Experts: The US Bears “Partial Responsibility” for the “Human Error” Which Caused the Ukrainian plane crash
*Evil #5* Evil is as evil does. According to the following post on Global Research, *USrael bears "partial responsibility" for the downing of the Ukraine jetliner.* No wonder le Dauphin and his fellow vassals from the CBC were working overtime all weekend, attending vigils and melodramatically pushing the "tragedy of the Canadians of Iranian descent" who were killed in the crash. Trudeau was ordered by his Ziofascist Globalist controllers to do so. Ordered to imprint on the mushy brains of the non-sentient Canadian sheeple that it was "*all Iran's fault*.

US to Iraq: ‘Vote All You Want, We’re Not Leaving!’
[image: undefined] President Trump’s decision earlier this month to assassinate Iran’s top military general on Iraqi soil – over the objection of the Iraqi government – has damaged the US relationship with its “ally” Iraq and set the region on the brink of war. Iran’s measured response – a few missiles fired on an Iraqi base after advance warning was given – is the only reason the US is not mired in another Middle East war. Trump said his decision to assassinate Gen. Qassim Soleimani was intended to prevent a war, not start a war. But no one in his right mind would think that killi... more »

Will Trump Send the Marines to Land on Iran's Shores?
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Middle East* [image: Reuters] A path to victory or defeat? *Key point: *A full-on invasion and occupation would be unwise, but a lot of damage could be done. One of the greatest truisms of life is that land wars in Asia are futile. The continent’s vastness allows defenders to trade space for time, extending the logistical lifelines of invaders to the breaking point. This argument holds for Iran, which at a population of one quarter that of the United States and the size of the West Coast is too large for even the largest of modern armies to occupy. But... more »
In 2015, Iran Practiced Destroying America's Aircraft Carriers
*Jassem Al Salami* *Security, Middle East* [image: Reuters] Could they sink one today? *Key point:* Tehran has long hoped that its threats to America's carriers might give Washington pause when tensions are high. Back in 2015, Iran carried out a massive attack on a mock version of an American Nimitz-class aircraft carrier. Tehran wanted everyone to know about it—state TV broadcasted the military exercise live. It’s a revealing look at Iranian naval assault tactics, involving several waves of ships backed by helicopters and shore-launched missiles. The timing isn’t a coincidence.... more »

"How’s This Working, Nancy?"
*"How’s This Working, Nancy?"* by Jim Kunstler "Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been clinging to her bill of impeachment for one reason: hoping that a judge will rule to release all the evidence and depositions collected by Robert Mueller’s investigation. What’s wrong with that? Mr. Mueller failed to find any prosecutable crimes. That was the sum and substance of his two-year-long exercise in bad faith. In which case, all that material is officially and legally evidence of nothing. Impeachment is a political act and sealed evidence of nothing can’t be released to one set of political acto... more »

How Restricting Legal Trade In Endangered Species Backfires
Every year humans buy and sell hundreds of millions of wild animals and plants around the world. Much of this commerce is legal, but illegal trade and over-harvesting have driven many species toward extinction. One common response is to adopt bans on trading in threatened or endangered species. But research shows that this approach can backfire. Restricting high-value species can actually trigger market booms. read more
Solar Power Is A Manifestation Of Income Inequality, Solar Geoengineering May Instead Fix It
Solar panel proponents rave about their solar energy.

The problem is that solar panels are subsidized by poor people who can't afford the installations in order to get a rebate. And that those who rent, or who live in apartments.

Majorana Fermion: We Found The God Particle, Why Is The 'Angel Particle' Still Missing?

A 2017 report of the discovery of a particular kind of Majorana fermion, the chiral Majorana fermion, was a false alarm, finds a new study, which means construction of a topological quantum computer also remains elusive.

One of the largest armies in the world has adopted one of the most unusual variants of the AK-series of assault rifles. The North Korean People’s Army Type 88 rifle is similar to the Soviet-era AK-74 with one key difference: unusual helical magazines that carry up to five times as many rounds as conventional 30-round magazines.

Fear the .458 SOCOM: A Bigger Bullet for the AR-15

One of the more interesting—and powerful—upgrades for the standard AR-15 rifle is an upper receiver in .458 SOCOM. Although nearly twice as wide as the .223/5.56 cartridge, .458 SOCOM can still fire from an AR-15 lower receiver and even use the same ammunition magazine. That’s no accident, as the cartridge was invented to give U.S. troops using the M-16 platform a major firepower boost. Unlike other heavy-caliber rifle r... more »

The strange new silence of the Democrats: protesting Iranian tyranny editon
In Iran the government is killing protesters and the protestors aren't condemning Trump but the fascist Imams who run Iran. But now that the protests aren't targeting Trump most Democrat politicians are suddenly silent with the exception of Joe Biden and Amy Klobuchar.

UK firms buy ‘green energy’ proof from Europe but burn fossil fuel
By Paul Homewood UK energy providers have turned to Eastern Europe to buy cheap green energy certificates that let them claim they provide 100pc renewable energy while continuing to rely on fossil fuels. Such schemes are known in the industry as “dirty REGOs”, in reference to watchdog Ofgem’s Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin […]

U.S. Defense Secretary Admits He ‘didn’t see’ Trump’s Evidence About Soleimani Planning Attacks
President Donald Trump warned that Iranian Major General Qassem Soleimani was planning “imminent” attacks against Americans, but his own defense secretary seems to be unable to back this claim.

Vague Imminence: US Policy, Pre-emptive Force And Qasem Soleimani
International relations is typified by its vagueness of definition and its shallowness of justification. Be it protecting citizens of a state in another, launching a pre-emptive strike to prevent what another state might do, or simply understanding the application of a treaty provision, justifications can prove uneven and at odds.

RATIONAL ANIMAL TALES: Atticus Finch complicit in murder!
*MONDAY, JANUARY 13, 2020Suggestions of Woke Gone Wild:* Not that many days before Christmas, we read a rather peculiar interview piece right there in The Atlantic. Much of the blame for this interview piece goes to David Sims, the magazine's apparently Brit movie critic. Sims is so sexist that he listed Little Women as only the ninth best film of last year. This seems to suggest that he may even agree with the "idiotic" Golden Globes, who didn't honor Greta Gerwig with one of their (five) Best Director nods. In the typical way of These Critics Today, Sims attempted to cover his... more »

Has The Media Been Always Wrong When Covering President Trump's National Security Decisions?
*The Federalist:* *The Media Is Always, Always Wrong About Trump And National Security* We should stop listening to the media on national security issues, since they are always wrong. As a captive audience, they make us accompany them through their stages of hysteria, and it's insufferable. If anything may be gleaned from the recent hyperbolic reporting about Iran, it is that our media betters, particularly those reporting on national security issues, are deeply and inexorably challenged at providing reasonable and thoughtful analysis due to a blinding animus towards President T... more »
Israel Wants to Kill Rockets and Drones with Lasers
*Seth J. Frantzman* *Security, * Is this possible or just science fiction? Israel has been working on using lasers to confront rocket and drone threats. Israel’s Directorate of Defense Research and Development announced a new breakthrough in the use of lasers earlier this month. “We are entering a new age of energy warfare in the air, land and sea,” Brig. Gen. Yaniv Rotem, the head of the Directorate said. Israel already has a multi-layered air defense system consisting of Iron Dome, David’ Sling and Arrow 3, designed to stop threats from low-level mortars to ballistic missiles... more »

Israel Is Becoming A Natural Gas Superpower
*Legal Insurrection:* *While you were focused on Soleimani, Israel became a natural gas superpower* “During the last week, earth-shattering events occurred that completely disrupted the Middle East …. In other news the Americans assassinated Iranian General Qassem Soleimani.” In March 2013, I noted that Israel’s discovery and development of huge offshore natural gas fields was a game-changer, putting Israel on course to become an energy superpower. At that time, the field that had just come on line was the Tamar field. I wrote, Yesterday the Middle East changed forever, and you d... more »

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN DEMOCRATS TRY TO SHOW THE VALUE OF VOTING DEMOCRATIC
In *The New York Times,* David Leonhardt makes an argument to which I'm sympathetic, although he distorts the facts to make it. Leonhardt's point is that Franklin Roosevelt won public support for his policies by creating big, visible programs -- something Democrats have forgotten how to do, but Republicans haven't. I agree with what Leonhardt says about FDR. I think he's somewhat off base regarding modern Democrats, and almost entirely off base when he talks about modern Republicans. Leonhardt writes: In January 1937, near the end of Franklin Roosevelt’s first term as president, L... more »

This Russian Expert Believes That The US Carrier Fleet Will Defeat The Chinese Carier Fleet Due to Its Superior Reconnaissance Capabilities

Individualism and Nationhood
Man has two political aspects—first, man as an individual; second, man as the member of a political community. In a good political community, the individualism of most citizens will move in tandem with their sense of belonging to the nation. A symbiotic relationship between man’s individualism and man’s nationhood is the fundamental requirement for a stable political community. The philosophies which preach the notion of a rift between individualism and nationhood are the breeders of alienation, nihilism, and immorality. Such philosophies are not at all conducive for good life and m... more »

Photo Credit: Fadel Senna/AFP/Getty via NPR On Dec. 28, 2019, the Washington Post reported that “Idlib could become the worst humanitarian crisis in Syria’s civil war.” Idlib and its environs have been under intense assault since April, when the Syrian government began a major offensive to retake the last opposition-held enclave in Syria, displacing more than 500,000 civilians and damaging dozens of hospitals and schools. By August, the attacks had become so frequent that U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres established an inquiry to document the incidents. Despite this persis... more »

The Panama Canal, faster than usual
Courtesy of Old Salt Blog, here's a time-lapse video of a passage through the Panama Canal. The trip lasts 11 hours, but the video takes less than 7 minutes - much more palatable in our high-speed world! Note the "locomotives" on either side of the ship, hauling it through the locks. They're partly visible from time to time, as in the video 'cover image' below, on the right of the ship's bow. The digging of the Panama Canal remains one of the great adventure stories of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It advanced not only navigation, but also medicine, engineering an... more »
Guest Post: Who Really is Obama?
This was sent in by Ric, a reader, and we thank him: His 8 years of living in the White House is over. He’s (mostly) gone … but questions remain. This came from a union guy in Chicago who didn’t vote for Obama. A very interesting perspective! It will be interesting to see what they put in his “Library” about his early years now that he is out of office. In a country where we take notice of many, many facets of our public figures’ lives, doesn’t it seem odd that there’s so little we know about Barack Obama? As … Continue reading →
Democrats Always Choose America’s Enemies Over America
By Kurt Schlichter at Townhall. Here’s an idea that our Democrat politician friends might want to try if they want to stop being back-stabbing garbage people. It’s kind of a radical notion and a little outside the box, but here goes: How about, just once, you stop sucking-up to the foreign bastards who are attacking our country and take America’s side? Maybe you should not back and excuse the gay-hanging, women-stoning, airline-downing, Obama check-cashing, Israel-threatening, American-murdering cultists ruling Iran. Just a thought.

Update On Death of Soleimani proves MSM reports to be lies
Amir Tsarfati: Middle East Update with Pastor Barry Stagner, January 13, 2020 . . This is a Christian discussion but it gives a real and up-to-date understanding of what is going on close to the action. I came across this gentleman a week or so back and truly appreciate his comments which give more than most a realistic understanding of what is going on. It is a breath of fresh air that shows the ridiculousness of the MSM narrative; the respect Trump has earned; and more importantly the Iranian citizenry response to the loss of one they considered a monster. … Continue reading →
