*December 9, 2020* (Brian Berletic - LD) - US-funded anti-government mobs in Thailand have once again “re-branded” their movement, using a “communist” toned logo with English letters spelling out “RT,” most likely part of their anti-monarchy agenda.

the interplay of old karmic patterns upon a new permissiveness
Bob Dinn, balance10 - 10 hours ago
Now I should like to point out the shifting pattern in the values of men that has been outpictured in the current age.

We find that this accent on material happiness has led to a greater preoccupation with materialism not only among those who are financially successful but also among the young men and women in the colleges and universities. -Alexander Gayl...

Russia Almost Built a Submachine Gun with Two Triggers
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Caleb Larson* *History, Eurasia* One of the Soviet Union’s legendary gunsmiths, Fedor Tokarev, thought he had a winning design for what could have been the USSR’s standard-issue submachine gun.

"You don't need evidence if bullies chase down the witnesses"
Peter, Bayou Renaissance Man - 11 hours ago
Scott Adams puts his finger on the crux of the election imbroglio in this short, but very to-the-point video clip. That's it *exactly*. When you have that sort of bullying, captured on tape, explicitly shutting out one side from the vote tallying process, the assumption must be that the process was flawed, biased and compromised. There is no other possibility, because any chance of proving otherwise - *impartially and objectively* - was destroyed by the exclusion. Let's hope the Supreme Court intervenes to uphold the rule of law. If it doesn't, there's going to be hell to ...

United States Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM) turned ten years old in 2020. It is a unique institution—a military command that operates globally in real time against determined and capable adversaries and yet never fires a shot or launches a missile. The Command comprises an amalgam of military, intelligence, and information technology capabilities that came together into its present shape more by design than by fortuitous chance. That design, however, was itself a work in progress. The Command’s first decade built upon the notion that states must operate in cyberspace at scale and in...
