X-Zone Broadcast Network - A Short Summary of the Discussion with Robert Sheaffer
Robert Sheaffer was the guest this week, a man known for his skeptical, though quite reasonable stand on the problem of UFOs.

Burning questions about vehicle safety
Two recent vehicle safety reports caught my eye. I thought they might interest readers as well. The first concerns water bottles in vehicles. It turns out that if you keep a plastic bottle of water in your car, you need to be very mindful of where you leave it. Anyone who has watched a survival reality show knows that water in a clear plastic bottle can work in the same way as a magnifying glass, focusing the sun's light onto one spot. That means if the sun hits a bottle in your automobile just the right way, it could actually start a fire in your car. Idaho Power uploaded a vide... more »

A Battle for the Soul of Our Nation
Minneapolis, Minnesota, is a long way from Brunswick, Georgia and Louisville, Kentucky. Yet the three areas are now inextricably linked by the recent tragedies that befell African- American citizens – murdered in those locations by citizen vigilantes or police officers. Each illuminates a teachable moment that we would do well to learn from, and demonstrates that even during a historic pandemic, when we are all supposedly “in this together,” that we still have a long way to go as a society before we truly reach “togetherness.”

Democrat politicians don't think that protecting you is their job; their job is getting more power over you
Even as Democrat mayors and governors across the country stand by and watch as looters and rioters run wild they're trying to blame Trump for their choices. The simple reality is that the system worked in George Floyd's case. A cop did something wrong and he's now facing murder charges. This is not the first time a cop has done something horrible. There's absolutely no evidence Floyd was targeted because he was Black. When a Black Lives Matter activist ambushed and killed five police officers there were no protests because the system worked and he paid the price. Oddly when a Blac... more »

We know for a fact that at least 2.3 million people are registered to vote who don't exist; they've died or they've moved and now vote somewhere else.

One Hydroxychloroquine A Day Does Not Keep The Doctor Away

The ability of hydroxychloroquine to prevent the development of COVID19, however, remained largely untested. But a study on the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine to prevent COVID19 has been published and the results are not what anyone was hoping for. *The Set-Up* read more

(Oil & Gas) A new OPEC agreement to cut production and the loosening of coronavirus restrictions has led to a slight recovery in the oil market, but prices are still too low to cover the Iraqi budget.

Russia's New Okhotnik Stealth Drone Is Closer to Being Ready for Combat
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Europe* One trial at a time. Russia is pursuing additional tests, demonstrations and “familiarization flights” of its emerging Okhotnik stealthy heavy attack drone.

The drone, which first emerged in August of last year, performed a joint flight with a Russian Su-57 last September. During that exercise, it “maneuver[ed] in the air in the automated mode at an altitude of around 1,600 meters and its flight lasted over 30 minutes,”... more »
Why Imperial Japan Deserves The Title Of 'World's Worst Submariners'
*James Holmes* *Security, Asia* The IJN submarine force was operationally and strategically inert—a wasting asset at a time when Japan needed to reap maximum combat returns from every implement at its disposal. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* It’s that last metric—strategy—that dooms the Japanese silent service. SUBPAC boats made mayhem starting while the U.S. battle line was still ablaze at Pearl Harbor, achieving strategic success bit by bit with each freighter, tanker, or transport sunk.

*Jared Keller* *Security, * Transparency. *Here's What You Need To Remember: * The Marine Corps' approach to the recent news out of Camp Pendleton shows that being open builds trust with the American public. Trust is exactly what the SEALs need a lot more of right now, and the best way to restore it is by looking to the other sea service's example. Two services. Two incidents involving service members accused of serious misconduct. Two vastly different approaches to openness and transparency.

Contact Tracing: How Physicians Used It 500 Years Ago to Control the Bubonic Plague
*Samuel Cohn, Mona O'Brien* *History, Europe* The ideas behind contact tracing go back centuries. Contact tracing has been remarkably successful at helping contain the COVID-19 pandemic in South Korea, Australia and Germany, as well as some smaller places. Using 21st-century systems of telecommunications and surveillance, healthcare workers in these places have led the way in identifying those who have been in contact with the infected, and then testing and isolating them. Minus the modern technology, contact tracing goes back a long way. The American historian William Coleman’s... more »
Belogorod: The Russian Submarine That Keeps the World Guessing
*Caleb Larson* *Security, Eurasia* One of the Russian Navy’s newest subs may be spying on you now. The Belogorod, as the hull is known, is rather mysterious. Work on the submarine originally began in the mid-1990s, though work was delayed several times due to financial difficulties endemic to Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Despite entering service just over a year ago, not much is known about the Belogorod. The naval expert H I Sutton explained that the sub’s christening was shrouded in secrecy — no easy task for one of the largest submarines in the world. Luckil... more »

Contemporary White Antiracism
The easiest way to find local White antiracist groups is to look at SURJ’s list – which includes SURJ chapters as well as other White antiracist groups – organized by state and city. SURJ (Showing Up for Racial Justice) is a nationwide network of White antiracist groups, with chapters in roughly 100 cities. For building White working-class antiracism, see SURJ’s commitment to such organizing, as well as the more explicitly radical, self-defense oriented group, Redneck Revolt. White antiracist groups, historically and in the present, tend to be predominantly female. White women... more »

Goliath Is Not Invincible: The Twenty-Third Newsletter (2020)
Last year, I walked with Mariela Machado in her housing complex known as Kaikachi in the neighbourhood of La Vega (Caracas, Venezuela). After Hugo Chávez was inaugurated president in 1999, a group of working-class residents of the city saw an empty piece of land and occupied it. Mariela and others went to the government and said, ‘We built this city. We can build our own houses. All we want are machines and materials’. The government supported them, and they built a charming multi-story complex that houses ninety-two families.

*Robert Haffa, RCD*: *America’s Defense: Are We Better Off Today Than We Were Four Years Ago?* In 2020, are you better off today than you were four years ago? The phrase dates to the final week of the 1980 presidential campaign between President Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan.
