Israel should send its humanitarian aid to mercenaries instead of Armenia: Pashinyan
[image: Israel should send its humanitarian aid to mercenaries instead of Armenia: Pashinyan] BEIRUT, LEBANON (2:40 P.M.) – Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan held a zoom interview with the Jerusalem Post on Monday to discuss the ongoing conflict with Azerbaijan in the Karabakh region. Pashiniyan called on Israel to reconsider sending its humanitarian aid to Yerevan and instead send it to “mercenaries in Karabakh”, who, he said are being armed by Tel Aviv. “Humanitarian aid by a country that is selling weapons to mercenaries, which they are using to strike a civilian peaceful ...
US pressures Cyprus to stop allowing Russian warships to use its ports
[image: US pressures Cyprus to stop allowing Russian warships to use its ports] BEIRUT, LEBANON (2:30 P.M.) – The U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Political and Military Affairs, Clark Cooper, said this week that his country is unhappy with Cyprus for continuing to allow Russian warships to enter its ports. “I confirmed separately that Cyprus has not yet taken the necessary steps to prevent ships of the Russian fleet from entering its ports. These and other steps are definitely necessary … We want the Republic of Cyprus to move in this direction,” Cooper said in a statement. ...
Uneasy About the Election? There's a Word for That in Spanish
Francisco Gallegos, Carlos Alberto Sanchez, The National Interest - 12 hours ago
*Francisco Gallegos, Carlos Alberto Sanchez* *Politics, Americas* [image: Reuters] The word “zozobra” is an ordinary Spanish term for “anxiety” but with connotations that call to mind the wobbling of a ship about to capsize. The term emerged as a key concept among Mexican intellectuals in the early 20th century to describe the sense of having no stable ground and feeling out of place in the world. Ever had the feeling that you can’t make sense of what’s happening? One moment everything seems normal, then suddenly the frame shifts to reveal a world on fire, struggling with pandemi...
The F-16 Fighter Has A Not-So-Secret Way to Beat Father Time
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 12 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC2RHI9LIRLU&share=true] Fifty years in service is quite a long time. How can this jet keep going so strong? The upgrades just keep coming. How has the F-16 fighter stayed in action for so long? The question has many answers, perhaps above and beyond the simple fact that the airframe itself is likely still viable by virtue of ongoing upgrades and Service Life Extension Programs (SLEP). Current Air Force F-16s have flown roughly 6,000-7,000 thousand flight hours, ...
Sick with Coronavirus? Half of Your Household Will Be Next.
Ethen Kim Lieser, The National Interest - 12 hours ago
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Coronavirus, * Expert we spoke to explains: “The thing we need to ask ourselves, even if we feel healthy and protected: Are we okay passing this to grandma and grandpa? Would we be okay if we gave it to mom and dad? Is it worth that level of risk?” An individual who is infected with the novel coronavirus has the potential to transmit the disease quickly to about half of all household members, according to a new study by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The agency added that the person suspected of having coronavirus should be isolated imm...
Trump vs. Biden: Will the 2020 Election Be Decided in a Courtroom?
Rachel Bucchino, The National Interest - 12 hours ago
*Rachel Bucchino* *Politics, Americas* [image: Reuters] The ultimate election results might not be transparent on Election Day or even for a few days after, but “we will all need to be patient,” explained one expert. The scorching coronavirus pandemic, dwindled economy and Election Day turmoil aren’t the only issues at hand in this year’s presidential election. It’s time to add one more to the list: relentless court battles between President Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Joe Biden in the event of close election results, especially in battleground states, to make sure all ...
AMC Movie Theaters’ Revenue Down by Over 90 Percent
Stephen Silver, The National Interest - 12 hours ago
*Stephen Silver* *Economics, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2020%3Anewsml_RC2LEG9F7PB5&share=true] Can a new sale of stock bring in enough cash to keep them going? Throughout 2020, AMC Theaters has closed their theaters in the United States, and later reopened them in most of the country, only to find that few customers are ready to return to the movies in person, and for that reason, Hollywood studios aren’t releasing major movies into theaters. This has been punctuated with occasional news reports that AMC, the nation’s largest movi...
M1941 Johnson Rifle: The Strange World War II Gun You Never Heard Of
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 12 hours ago
*Caleb Larson* *History, Asia* [image: By Anefo - http://proxy.handle.net/10648/5b697cbe-8fd6-189c-c579-ac442afa6242, CC0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=65879829] Admittedly odd-looking, the M1941 Johnson machine gun offered several advantages. The M1941 Johnson machine gun, designed by Melvin Johnson, Jr., was a light machine gun that despite never becoming standard-issue, nonetheless served in small numbers with the United States Marine Corps. The decidedly odd-looking rifle had a few interesting features. Johnson’s original intent was to create a semi-automa...

The Heroic Flight of Torpedo Squadron 8 at the Battle of Midway
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 12 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, * The evasive maneuvering needed to defend against the torpedo planes may have prevented the Japanese carriers from launching additional fighter planes. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The importance of the torpedo attacks on the outcome of the battle cannot be underestimated. The pilots of Bombing Squadron 6 could not believe what they were seeing on the morning of June 4, 1942. The squadron was about 150 miles northwest of Midway atoll when good visibility allowed the dive-bombers from the aircraft carrier USS *Enterprise* to make out three ...
From Zeroes to Heroes: The 90th Division Proves Itself Across France
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 12 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* [image: Wikimedia Commons] “The division is bad, the discipline poor, the men filthy, and the officers apathetic.” Lieutenant General Omar Bradley, commander of the U.S. First Army, considered his 90th Infantry Division a problem unit. Its performance in the first part of the Normandy campaign was so poor, its leadership so bad, and its morale so low that Bradley’s exasperated staff recommended breaking up the division and using its soldiers as replacements. Bradley, however, believed that proper leadership could save the division and m...

FOX ASKS QANON-ADJACENT SECURITY FIRM TO EXPLAIN ANTIFA FOR US
Steve M., No More Mister Nice Blog - 13 hours ago
Will there be unrest once the voting is over? Seeking an answer to this question, Hollie McKay of Fox News turned to the head of a little-known security firm. McKay's "expert" had some predictions that seem a tad paranoid. “Our intelligence shows that no matter who wins the election, they [Antifa] are planning a massive ‘Antifa Tet Offensive,’ bent on destroying the global order they are not beholden to any one party,” Robert Lewis told Fox News. “Their sole purpose is to create havoc, fear, and intimidation.” An "Antifa Tet Offensive"? And why should we trust Lewis's alleged intel...
Don’t Forget LBJ’s Election Theft
Jacob G. Hornberger, null - 13 hours ago
[image: undefined] The mainstream pro-Biden media is poking fun at Donald Trump’s suggestion that there could be fraud involved in the post-election receipt of mail-in ballots. Apparently they’re not familiar with the election-theft case of Lyndon Johnson, who would go on to become president of the United States. The entire matter is detailed in Robert Caro’s second book in his biographical series on Johnson. The book is entitled *Means of Ascent*. Johnson election theft took place in 1948, when he was running for the Democratic nomination for US Senate against Texas Governor Coke S...
Michigan Governor Whitmer Goes Full Orwell, Demands Full Names, Phone Numbers For All Restaurant Customers
Tyler Durden, null - 13 hours ago
[image: undefined] Effective this week, diners in Michigan are now going to be required to produce their full name and contact information simply for wanting to eat out at a restaurant or bar. Ironically, it's likely more information than citizens are required to produce in order to vote. Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer has moved her state one step closer to a true Orwellian paradise, asking her citizens to surrender their privacy every time they want a cheeseburger and a coke at their local diner. Whitmer has already been struck down once by the Supreme Court over trying to...

World Reaction To The U.S. Elections
War News Updates Editor, War News Updates - 13 hours ago
*Washington Post*: *As the U.S. votes, the world watches with anxiety and hope* As Americans get ready to cast their votes to choose the president for the next four years, the whole world is watching closely, especially allies in Europe and rivals like Russia, China and Iran which could all expect a very different U.S. foreign policy depending on who wins on Tuesday. Commentators in China hope for a respite with a Democratic administration under Joe Biden but fear that whoever wins, the new U.S.-China rivalry started by President Donald Trump might persist.

Trump's War On Truth
Owen Gray, Northern Reflections - 13 hours ago
Today, Paul Krugman writes, is the day Donald Trump's war on truth reaches its climax. During the campaign, Trump has told two big lies: The first big lie is the claim that America is being menaced by hordes of “rioters, looters, arsonists, gun-grabbers, flag-burners, Marxists.” Anyone who walks around the “anarchist jurisdictions” of New York or Seattle can see with their own eyes that nothing like this is happening. And the data bear out the obvious. One systematic study found that the summer’s Black Lives Matter protests were overwhelmingly peaceful, and that “most of the viole...
Which Way for the U.S.A.?
Alicia, LaRouchePAC Feed - 16 hours ago
Which Way for the U.S.A.? Video of Which Way for the U.S.A.? As Americans vote today, they will be choosing between two vastly different directions for the future. Will the imperial global, neo-liberal War Hawk faction take back the White House, so they can defend their bankrupt system? Or will President Trump be given the opportunity to drain the "Swamp", so he can end the "endless wars", and join with Russia, China and other sovereign nations to establish a New Bretton Woods, which would shut down the bankrupt system of the central banks, which denies credit to the physical eco...

Regime Change: My Essay on The Cycles of Constitutional Time in WaPo
JB, Balkinization - 14 hours ago
In today's Washington Post, I have an essay about why we are on the verge of a fundamental shift in American politics. The argument is based on my new book, The Cycles of Constitutional Time. Here is the opening: Things look increasingly bad for American democracy. But beneath today’s political despair and confusion are powerful undercurrents of change. Historically, U.S. politics has been characterized by the rise and fall of dominant coalitions, by long cycles of polarization and depolarization and by episodes of political decay followed by periods of reform and renewal. These...

Grassroots organizers from #MeToo and #BlackLivesMatter mobilized tens of thousands of new activists. If this organizing pays off on Tuesday, and Trump is defeated, activists across the country will have wind in their sails and a spring in their step.

Has Donald Trump Tarnished America for Good?
Liam Kennedy, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Liam Kennedy* *Politics, North America* While political leaders and policy experts will watch the election through the prism of their strategic interests, most of the world will watch with a more nebulous sense that the fate of the world is somehow at stake. For better or worse, around the globe people tend to view the US through the figure of its president. This is certainly the case with Donald Trump, whose global celebrity has amplified feelings about the US. A US presidential election always draws intense worldwide interest, in part due to the spectacle, but also because the...

A Russia-China Military Alliance? Not So Fast.
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Security, World* A formal alliance could present problems, not the least of which would be the hierarchy within the allied structures. Last month, Russian President Vladimir Putin suggested that a military alliance between Moscow and China was possible, but added that both sides “in general” have no need for an alliance. In addition to a lack of actual need for such a formal alliance, some experts suggest it could “tie Russia’s hands” and potentially scare off traditional partners. “Russia has no need to strike a formal military alliance with China against the Uni...
Before The Covid-19 Pandemic, U.S. Income Growth Soared And Poverty Fell To The Lowest Rate Since 1959
War News Updates Editor, War News Updates - 14 hours ago
*Wall Street Journal:* *The Higher Wages of Growth * Before the pandemic, income growth soared and poverty fell to the lowest rate since 1959. In case you missed it, and most of the media did, the Census Bureau reported Tuesday that the median household income in 2019 grew a whopping 6.8%—the largest annual increase on record. While this year’s government-ordered lockdowns will erase these gains in the short term at least, it’s still worth highlighting how lower-income workers and minorities benefited from faster growth and a tighter labor market before the pandemic. Real median...

A year ago the bipartisan American Security Drone Act, which had the support of several high profile U.S. senators on both sides of the aisle, called to ban the U.S. government from purchasing drones that were manufactured in countries that were identified as "national security threats." That includes nations such as China and Iran. The act was proposed by U.S. Senators Rick Scott (R-Fla.), Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), Tom Cotton (R-Ark....

Why the F-22 Raptor Is the Best Fighter Jet on the Planet
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 15 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *F-22, * This plane can do something very unique: evolve with the times. What is the reason why so many regard the now decades-old F-22 Raptor as the most dominant air dominance platform when it comes to air-to-air superiority? The answer partly resides in the fact that today’s F-22 stealth fighter is quite different from the aircraft which first emerged in 1997. The largest difference with the latest upgraded F-22s may be found in a series of weapons upgrades made possible in recent years through software advances. *New Weapons: * The F-22 is now operational ...

California Democrats return to their racist roots
trinko, Conversations about the obvious - 15 hours ago
Tomorrow Californians will have a chance to vote to institutionalize systemic racism. Proposition 16, if it passes, will allow the government to discriminate against people because of their race and sex. That means that it would be legal if the government of California never hired another Black, Hispanic, Native American, or Pacific Islander. Of course the intent behind the bill is to discriminate against whites and Asians but that's just what the current batch of politicians plans to do; the Proposition would enable discrimination against what ever racial group is disfavored. ...
Vote: America depends on it

Kamala Harris just came out for Communism; equal results not equal opportunity. That means that she wants someone who drops out of high school to do drugs to have the same quality of life as hard working people like you do. Communism almost delivers that; everyone but the ruling elites are poor and the elites are very rich. Joe Biden wants to pack the court, raise your taxes, take your guns, eliminate religious liberty, and he's the conservative person on the Democrat ticket. Every vote will count. If Trump wins but doesn't win the popular vote Democrats will never accept the e...

HOW BIG A WIN DOES BIDEN NEED TO WIN?

At that point, Clinton's lead was only 272-266. Right now, it's 319-219 in Joe Biden's favor. It's better. Clinton's national lead had collapsed to 3.2 points; Biden's lead right now is 6.7.

The flying car MEME has always been absurd so long as robot control is impossible. We are now getting there. That still leaves the problem of failsafes. Failure modes turn you into a brick rapidly converging on the ground. Normal automobile failure turns you into a brick converging on the side of the road. That turns out to be survivable in most cases. We will still have auto drones able to take passengers from point A to point B while using elevation and 3D space. Another alternative is the craft above that i do believe is feasible. It is a gravity ship unable to generat...
Mish-Mash
Larry-Lambert, Virtual Mirage - 20 hours ago
At the White Wolf Mine It’s election day and high drama is unfolding nationally, deciding whether we are to be a republic or not. There was high drama during the night at the White Wolf Mine as well. Sometime around 11 pm I was in my office, finishing up on some paperwork when the […] The post Mish-Mash appeared first on Virtual Mirage.

China is Exploiting America's Academic Freedom

*Paul Wolfowitz, Bill Drexel* *Security, Americas* [image: Reuters] The People’s Republic of China (PRC) exploits openness and academic freedom to influence debate in foreign universities, while crushing dissent and freedom of expression in its own institutions. According to Sun Tzu, “the supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.” China’s campaign to gain non-military advantage internationally has been relentless, and it benefits from the opportunities that open societies provide them to exert the very foreign influence that they so assiduously exclude from Chin...
Our Obsession with Happy Endings Doesn't Make Us Happier
Martin D. Vestergaard, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Martin D. Vestergaard* *Science, World* Is all really well that ends well? All’s well that ends well, wrote William Shakespeare in 1623. The words may still seem to ring true today, but turns out they don’t. We have just busted the old myth in a recent brain imaging experiment, published in the Journal of Neuroscience. Experiences that end well are not necessarily good overall and experiences that end less well are not necessarily all that bad. For example, if you play five rounds of poker you get more overall enjoyment from winning twice in the middle than once at the end – bu...
America's Best Days Are Still Ahead (We Think)
Karlyn Bowman, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Karlyn Bowman* *Politics, Americas* [image: Reuters] In the new poll, Democrats and Republicans were equally optimistic about America’s future (62 and 61 percent, respectively). It’s a nice thought on which to conclude the 2020 campaign. How should I end this weekly series of blog posts about the 2020 election that I began a year ago? One way is to look at the latest polls. In the FiveThirtyEight collection of 113 polls taken since October 1, Joe Biden has polled at or above 50 percent in 81 of them. Trump has been at or above 45 percent in 16 of them. Aside from a few blips, t...

Regardless of who wins the US presidential election, Britain will be hard pressed to protect the NHS from higher drug prices.
