*“'Like Something Out Of The Book Of Exodus': Locust Armies * *Are Devouring Entire Farms In Kenya “In As Little As 30 Seconds”* by Michael Snyder "Locust armies numbering in the billions are absolutely ravaging large portions of eastern Africa and vast stretches of the Middle East. We are being told that these locust armies “are unprecedented in size and scope”, which means that we have never seen anything like this before.

F-35 and F-15s: Learn How Israel Would Fight A War With Iran
*Michael Peck* *Technology, Middle East* Here's how it'd go down. *Key Point:* Israel has a missile system that can counter Iran. The Middle East is aflame from Baghdad to Gaza. But the most frightening conflict is one that is yet to happen. Though Iran's atomic weapons program has receded from world attention, displaced by the Syrian Civil War and Islamic extremists overrunning Iraq, the specter of an Israeli strike against Iranian nuclear facilities hovers over the region. Or, there might be some other trigger. Perhaps a Hezbollah attack that draws Israeli retaliation and the... more »
You Still Can't Beat the F-22 Raptor Stealth Fighter
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Americas* New precision weapons and more. *Key point:* The new weapons not only increase F-22 lethality, but are already shaping future Air Force combat tactics. (Washington, D.C.) The Air Force and Lockheed Martin are now arming the F-22 stealth fighter with more long-range precision attack technology, a wider targeting envelope or “field of regard” and new networking technology enabling improved, real-time “collaborative targeting” between aircraft. The new weapons not only increase F-22 lethality, but are already shaping future Air Force combat tactic... more »
How One U.S. Ally Is Preparing To Battle Russia's "Little Green Men"
*Michael Peck* *Security, Europe* How will the British combat hybrid warfare? *Key Point:* The Special Reconnisance Regiment (SRR) is getting an upgrade. Britain is giving its vaunted special forces a special job: fighting little green men, gray wars and black ops. All these colors belong to Russia’s “hybrid warfare” strategy, which eschews massive military force in favor of more subtle means such as political manipulation, cyberwarfare and special forces operating incognito (the “little green men” in unmarked uniforms that spearheaded the seizure of Crimea from Ukraine in 2014)... more »

The Navy's Old Nimitz Aircraft Carriers Can Still Do Some Serious Damage
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * The Nimitz-class carriers are a monumental achievement—an enormous, highly complex and yet highly successful ship design. *Key point:* The real strength of a carrier is in its air wing. The most successful U.S. Navy carriers of the postwar era all belong to a class named in honor of World War II’s most successful admiral, Chester W. Nimitz. The class’s lead ship, commissioned in 1975, bears the fleet admiral’s name. The Nimitz-class aircraft carriers were, at the time, the largest warships ever constructed.

*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Europe* They were a disaster. Here's why. Mussolini entered Italy into World War II on June 1940, hoping to ride on the coattails of Nazi German conquests. *Il Duce *had grand visions of a Roman Empire reborn, but his clumsy opportunism would result in the destruction of his Fascist regime in three blood-soaked years.

Arguably the hottest person on our worryingly overheated planet right now, the world hangs on his every word. His tone was serious and sombre, his words tough and true.
Shut Down Canada Until It Solves Its War, Oil, And Genocide Problem
Indigenous people in Canada are giving the world a demonstration of the power of nonviolent action. The justness of their cause — defending the land from those who would destroy it for short term profit and the elimination of a habitable climate on earth — combined with their courage and the absence on their part of cruelty or hatred, has the potential to create a much larger movement, which is of course the key to success.
New Employment Analysis Shows That A Good Job Is Hard To Find These Days
The constitutionally mandated State of the Union address opened Feb. 4 with the first of many boasts: “Jobs are booming, incomes are soaring, poverty is plummeting.” Trump went on with the lie, “The average unemployment rate under my administration is lower than any administration in the history of our country.” A Milwaukee, Wis., job fair in November 2019 verifies the fact that unemployment is high in Black communities in cities.
Meet The M551 Sheridan: The Tank That Dropped On Enemies From The Sky
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Americas* Today, airborne troops are probably better served by modern antitank missiles such as the Javelin for antitank defense, rather than a light tank which virtually any form of antiarmor return fire could annihilate. *Key point: *The M1 Abrams is a better tank, but its weight limits where it can be deployed. The M551 Sheridan light tank is largely remembered as a curiosity, an innovative weapon system that proved an overcomplicated failure in action. However, several hundred Sheridans provided useful service in three wars, and left behind a sm... more »

Russia is designing an anti-ship missile for its Su-57 stealth fighter. But is hunting ships the best mission for such an advanced aircraft?

Is the U.S. Army’s Joint Light Tactical Vehicle in Trouble?
*Charlie Gao* *Security, * What is the problem? The US Army’s Joint Light Tactical Vehicle looks to be facing a troubled procurement schedule in the upcoming fiscal year. Although greenlit for full-rate production in June 2019, the JLTV saw several upgrades implemented in 2019 to address deficiencies found in service trials. But problems with the JLTV may have resulted in cuts in procurement. The JLTV is supposed to be the U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Army’s next generation tactical vehicle, replacing a multitude of MRAPs and up-armored Humvee variants in service as the primary li... more »
How the Army Can Fight and Win the Wars of the Future
*Samuel Arlington Page* *Security, * To prepare for a looming confrontation with a heavily-equipped enemy, the U.S. Army should make fundamental changes to its warfighting concepts Currently, the U.S. Army is undergoing a transformation while preparing for *Multi-Domain Operations* and *Large-Scale Combat Operations*. These concepts include an axiom that describes U.S. forces as being “over-matched” by near-peer adversaries, such as China or Russia. In response, the US Army uses an acronym, DOTMLPF-P, to examine its Doctrine, Organization, Training, Materials, Leadership, Personn... more »
Iran Is Still As Committed As Ever To Destroying Israel
*Michael Peck* *Security, Middle East* This is how Tehran would try to do it. *Key point:* Israel would not make it easy. How might Iran retaliate for a U.S. drone strike that killed its most important general? By attacking Israel. A senior Iranian official has already threatened to strike Israel if America were to respond militarily to any Iranian retaliation for the death of Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, the chief of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Quds Force, and the driving force behind Iran’s network of proxy armies such as Hezbollah. "If the US tak... more »

*Deana Rohlinger* *Science, * [image: Giant male panda Ru Yi plays with a heart-shaped pillow on Valentine's Day at the Moscow Zoo in the capital Moscow, Russia February 14, 2020. REUTERS/Maxim Shemetov] Every heard of it? We explain. On Feb. 13, women will celebrate Galentine’s Day, a holiday trumpeting the joys of female friendships.

Human 'Obsession' With Love - the Past Tells All
*Adam Parker* *History, World* [image: Reuters] Here's what we know. Valentine’s Days is not all love hearts and roses for everyone. For the hapless in love, the day can be a yearly reminder of failed romances, unrequited love and the seemingly unending search for the illusive “one”. Such problems of the heart span cultures and history. The inhabitants of the Graeco-Roman world suffered the same heartaches and the same emotional highs and lows as we do today. While we are left with apps to swipe on, a greater belief in magic in this period provided interesting opportunities to ... more »
A Mini SR-71? Meet the CIA's A-12 Oxcart (We Don't Know How Fast It Could Fly)
*Sebastien Roblin* *History, Americas* You can't fight what you can't catch. *Key point:* These jets were fast...very fast... Analysis of Week’s photos located the USS Pueblo near Wonsan anchored next to two patrol boats—and also revealed that Pyongyang had not mobilized its troops for war. This led Johnson to rule out plans for a preemptive or punitive strike in favor of diplomatic measures which eventually saw the ship’s abused crew released nearly a year later. On October 30, 1967, a CIA spy-plane soared eighty-four thousand feet over Hanoi in northern Vietnam, traveling fast... more »
Why This Picture Terrifies North Korea (They Can't Stop Stealth)
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * And now America has the F-35. *Key point:* Defeating North Korea's air force won't be very difficult. In any conflict in the skies over North Korea, the U.S. Air Force will likely follow a familiar pattern. First, it will need to sweep the skies of enemy fighters—not a difficult prospect considering the decrepit state of the North Korean air force. Concurrent with that will be a campaign to shut down the country’s command and control and air defense systems, and finally a close air support and interdiction campaign designed to support friendly forces... more »
Jennifer Lopez is 50 Years Old and In Amazing Shape. How Does She Do It?
*Samantha Brennan* *Culture, * Is she a source of inspiration? Now that the Super Bowl and its half-time show are behind us, let’s take a few minutes to reflect upon what the amazing performances by Jennifer Lopez and Shakira mean for women in mid-life. Are J.Lo and Shakira, ages 50 and 43 respectively, an inspiration for women, or do they raise the bar so high that regular, middle-aged women feel like they should just throw in the towel and give up? While the world focused on their looks and on whether their performances objectified women and were “too sexy” for prime time, I t... more »

Wake Up Senators!
