Midnight Meme Of The Day!
*by Noah* Ladies and Gentlemen! The Republican Party 2.0.2.0: In case you were wondering how it is that Republicans are so fond of Roger Stone, the photo in tonight's meme and the one at the end of this post go a long way in explaining that mutual love. And they are just two of the many photos of Roger Stone with members of the notorious Proud Boys white supremacy group that are available. Would it shock any of us if he has a few of Trump with some Proud Boys, too? Could that be one of many reasons Stone's jail sentence was lowered and then commuted altogether? I'm just supposin'... more »

[image: Iran will get to test air defenses against Israeli attacks in Syria] BEIRUT, LEBANON (7:30 A.M.) – The new military cooperation agreement between Iran and Syria will allow the Islamic Republic to test its domestically-made air defenses against Israeli missiles and warplanes that target the Arab Republic.

Hagia Sophia: Clash Of Civilizations Or Reassertion Of Civilizational Identity?
Turkey’s controversial decision to reconvert Hagia Sophia from a museum into a mosque has been met with sharp criticism abroad from those who claim that it’ll exacerbate the so-called “Clash of Civilizations” and reverse the secular reforms of Ataturk while supporters of this move claim that it’s a justified reassertion […]
Watch Out: Israel's New Air-Launched "Rampage" Ballistic Missile Is Fierce
*Kyle Mizokami* *Technology, Middle East* The Israeli air force operates a wide range of conventional guided air-to-surface munitions. But none can match Rampage’s range. *Key Point*: It seems "Rampage" works as advertised. Israel reportedly used in combat for the first time a new kind of fast, long-range missile. According to aviation journalist Babak Taghvaee, on April 13, 2019 Israeli air force warplanes fired, for the first time, at least one Rampage air-launched ballistic missile at a missile factory and weapons warehouses in Masyaf, Syria. The Israelis chose to deploy Ram... more »
Nothing to Fear? Thousands of North Korea's Tanks Are Outdated
*Kyle Mizokami* *Technology, Asia* The future appears bleak for the country's tank forces. *Key Point*: North Korea may possess nuclear weapons, but many of its conventional forces are obsolute. For decades, North Korea has maintained strong armored forces as part of the Korean People’s Army (KPA), with thousands of tanks today in service. North Korean tanks and mechanized infantry are meant to liberate the southern half of the peninsula in a lightning war that Pyongyang would win before the United States could bolster Seoul’s defenses. Unfortunately for the KPA, the end of the ... more »
Is Iran's Massive Army a Paper Tiger or a True Force to Be Reckoned With?
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Middle East* The country has an enthusiastic, if not quite cutting-edge military. *Key Point*: Iran’s sheer size, both in geography and population, are a deterrent to invasion. One of the most powerful and influential countries in the Middle East is undoubtedly Iran. The Islamic Republic of Iran sits astride several key strategic—and often volatile—regions, including the Persian Gulf, Central Asia, the Indian Ocean and the Caucasus. Iran is primarily a land power, and has invaded and suffered invasion from other peoples and countries over the past seve... more »
This Tragic Battleship Suffered an Explosive Accident – Twice
*Kyle Mizokami* *History, Americas* The USS Mississippi experienced two major accidents in the same turret, in the same gun, twenty years apart. *Key Point*: Some ships are simply unlucky. The USS *Mississippi* is home to one of the most intriguing naval coincidences of all time. Built while America was a neutral party in World War I, *Mississippi* sailed into the atomic age and later served as a massive test platform for surface-to-air missiles. Despite her forty years of service, *Mississippi* was bound to tragedy, experiencing two major accidents in the same turret, in the sa... more »
South Korea's Army Is Superior to the North's (But It Might Not Matter)
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Asia* Pyongyang's nuclear weapons are still a powerful balance. *Key Point*: The Republic of Korea Army has deterred war for the last seventy years, a benchmark of success for any peacetime army. In the last seventy years, the Republic of Korea Army (ROK Army) has evolved from a constabulary force into one of the largest, most powerful, technologically advanced armies in the world. This remarkable evolution is entirely due to the original 1950–53 invasion and war by neighboring North Korea. This existential threat has never truly gone away, with North K... more »
Doomed? Custer Would Have Had a Hard Time Escaping the Battle of Little Big Horn
*Warfare History Network* *History, Americas* [image: By Seifert Gugler & Co. -] He made many mistakes. *Key Point: *Custer had ignored warnings from his scouts and spurned the use of newer weaponry. Could he really have made better choices? We can never know what frantic thoughts raced through George Armstrong Custer’s mind in the last hour of his life. But surely, as ever-growing numbers of angry, well-armed Plains Indians closed in on his 210 troopers of the 7th Cavalry, he must have realized that he had fatally misjudged the size of the hostile force now surrounding him. His... more »
A U.S. B-2 Bomber Attacked a Chinese Embassy in 1999 (This Was What Was Left)
*Kyle Mizokami* *History, Europe* Overall, twenty-eight thousand bombs and other munitions were exploded over Yugoslavia, a country the size of Ohio. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *There was no logical reason to intentionally bomb the embassy and provoke China, nor was there a great swelling of anti-Chinese feeling in America that would have provoked such an act. During NATO’s 1999 air war over Yugoslavia, the Atlantic alliance struck hundreds of targets over Serbia and Kosovo. Most were uncontroversial: air-defense sites, army headquarters and other military targets. The ... more »

Scientists Warn Of Rapid Melting Of Antarctica’s ‘Doomsday Glacier’
*The Independent: * *‘Teetering at the edge’: Scientists warn of rapid melting of Antarctica’s ‘Doomsday glacier’* Thwaites glacier is losing ice at an accelerating rate, threatening catastrophic sea-level rise Many climate scientists regard Thwaites glacier in West Antarctica as one of the most vulnerable and most significant glaciers in the world in terms of future global sea-level rise. Its collapse would raise global sea levels by more than half a metre on its own, and subsequently release other major bodies of ice in West Antarctica, which together could raise sea levels by ... more »
