*Warfare History Network* *History, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2011%3Anewsml_GM1E77M0LHB01&share=true] The illegal theft and resale of goods made it more difficult to wage total war. *Key point: *All militaries have had to contend with supply issues and war profiteering.

The Downfall of the Cities
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 1 hour ago
In the Ancient and Middle ages, the cities were the place where the political establishment who produced little and consumed a lot would reside. The needs of these cities were fulfilled by the production taking place in the rural areas and the smaller towns. The character of the cities saw a transformation in the middle of the eighteenth century when the industrial revolution swept through several parts of the globe and made the cities the center of production—barring agricultural products, which continued to be sourced out of the rural areas and smaller towns, the cities were now...

Global Solidarity Is Needed During The Pandemic To End Medical Apartheid
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 2 hours ago
Some of the truths the COVID-19 pandemic is exposing about the United States are its racial disparities in health and access to health care. Black and Indigenous people are more likely to be infected with the virus that causes COVID-19 than white people. They are two to three times more likely to be hospitalized and two to two and a half times more likely to die than white people. There are a number of factors that contribute to this. Another related truth that is being exposed by the pandemic is the relative failure of capitalist countries to contain the virus and limit deaths wh...

Strong Opinions: Why People Love (and Hate) Kel-Tec Guns
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 2 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *Security, Europe* The guns are still widely used and are certainly affordable. But they are not known for being high quality. *Here's What You Need to Know*: These are not the finest weapons, but some people have strong opinions. Kel-Tec is one of the most polarizing companies in the American gun industry, known for making exotic designs at cheap prices, but also with quality control issues. They are undoubtedly successful though, with an ever-increasing catalog of products and with demand for some of their products often outstripping their supply. The current co...
Cuomo’s Nursing Home Scandal Vindicates His Critics In The Press
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 2 hours ago
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s moment as the “hero” of the Covid-19 crisis is fading, with revelations (New York Times, 2/12/21) that his administration covered up the scope of the coronavirus death toll in the state’s nursing homes, as one Cuomo aide “admitted that the state had withheld data because it feared an investigation by the Trump Justice Department.” The anger at the governor is bipartisan; legislators on both sides of the aisle are discussing curtailing his powers, and even impeachment (City and State, 2/12/21). It seems like yesterday when Cuomo, the son of legendary Ne...
How One Community Creatively Solved Keeping Its Residents Fed During A Pandemic
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 2 hours ago
Hunger and food insecurity have increased worldwide since COVID-19 took hold. In December 2020, the United Nations warned of the threat of “catastrophic global famine,” urging worldwide governments to prioritize food security and humanitarian needs in their COVID-19 response plans. The global, industrialized food supply chain is strained and fraying. Production and shipping delays are increasingly commonplace. Given the lack of substantial response by many governments to food insecurity, it has often fallen to individuals to step in and feed their communities. Neighborhood-based v...
The Atrocious Prosecution Of Julian Assange
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 2 hours ago
What do Biden and Trump have in common? (Aside from jerking Iran around over the nuclear treaty, proclaiming support for a phony, unelected pretender to the Venezuelan presidency, Juan Guaido, and posturing aggressively toward China?) Both Biden and Trump support the utterly baseless Espionage Act case against journalist and publisher Julian Assange. Make no mistake, this case is a frontal assault on the first amendment. It is also one of the worst attacks on a free press in centuries. But that hasn’t stopped Trump and Biden. With a pusillanimous press quiescent about Assange and ...

A Conversation With Leaders Of The Mayangna Nation
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 2 hours ago
In November of 2020, between hurricanes Eta and Iota, Stephen Sefton interviewed Indigenous leaders and others in Nicaragua’s North Caribbean Coast Autonomous Region. The interviews mainly address long standing misapprehensions and outright falsehoods about Nicaragua’s Sandinista government’s defense of Indigenous people’s rights, an issue inseparable from defense of the natural environment. More immediately, the interviews exposed several poorly researched, inaccurate reports of the Oakland Institute, published in 2020, clearly seeking to damage Nicaragua’s economy by means of mi...
Azerbaijani Natural Gas Can Help Europe Transition to Renewable Energy
Esmira Jafarova, Shahmar Hajiyev, The National Interest - 2 hours ago
*Esmira Jafarova, Shahmar Hajiyev* *Energy, Europe* It goes without saying that the use of natural gas will play an important role in the coming years. Nowadays, one of the major concerns for Europe is energy security and how to address the challenges that face European energy consumers. Natural gas is an important source of energy, and most EU Member States depend on natural gas imports. It is worth noting that gas can be considered a cleaner “transition fuel” because it leads to the emission of less CO2 than coal. Another important fact is that natural gas supports renewable en...

*Charlie Gao* *Security, Americas* Sig Sauer has also been more responsive to industry trends, utilizing more popular cuts and systems for attaching optics to handguns. Finally, the P320 features a standard 3-slot Picatinny rail that doesn’t alter performance in lieu of the one-slot semi proprietary Glock rail that can alter slide movement characteristics when tightened down. *Here’s What You Need to Remember:* Sig Sauer’s P320 is perhaps Glock’s most successful competitor in the world of striker-fired polymer-framed handguns.

3 Tricks for Strategically Competing in the Global Innovation Smackdown
Nicholas D. Wright, James Giordano, Diane DiEuliis, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Nicholas D. Wright, James Giordano, Diane DiEuliis* *Security, Americas* It matters which country invents and builds the biological technologies of the future. For the United States to compete effectively, it must avoid extreme decoupling, which severs innovation ecosystems and supply chains. The United States’ defense budget is vast, but its 3.4 percent of U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) is dwarfed by healthcare’s 17 percent. Global finance looms large, but the global recession caused by finance problems in 2008 was only half as deep as that created by the coronavirus pandemic...
Why America Is Signaling Its Willingness to Talk to Iran
Amitai Etzioni, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Amitai Etzioni* *Security, Americas* The Biden administration has already taken several steps that Tehran will view as an indication that President Joe Biden is very keen to avoid a confrontation and to talk instead. If a person listens to what both sides say, then the United States and Iran are at loggerheads, each striking the opposite position of the other. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei stated that the United States “must lift all sanctions in practice” before Iran will return to the commitments it made as part of the nuclear deal.

Almost every gun is designed to be safe as possible for the shooter. Countless mechanisms have been designed to facilitate this and prevent the gun from firing when the shooter does not intend it to. However, in some guns, these safeties simply do not work, due to poor or thoughtless design. Other guns might fire when the trigger is pulled but could be dangerous due to parts or gasses being expelled rapidly to...
Ransomware Gangs: Why its Time to Stop Paying Them Off

In the past five years, ransomware attacks have evolved from rare misfortunes into common and disruptive threats.

Four Environmental Myths about Cryptocurrency Busted

*Peter Howson* *Environment, * Bitcoin mining on some days uses as much energy as Poland and generates 37 million tonnes of CO2 each year. The price of bitcoin has reached US$50,000 (£36,095) – another all-time high. It’s hard to believe that 10,000 bitcoin would only buy a couple of pizzas ten years ago. It’s even stranger to think that bitcoins are completely virtual. You can’t hold one, except on a hard drive, and there’s no underlying asset to them. A bitcoin is simply a digital representation of the computer power needed to make one, what’s called its “proof-of-work”. This ...

In Ernest Mandel's *Late Capitalism*, his chapter on the state makes some interesting observations. In a quick overview of the then state-of-the-art (remember, the English edition was pubished in 1975), he argues Marxism has thoroughly analysed the two dominant aspects of the state. Its repressive character was explicated by the likes of Marx, Lenin, and Luxemburg, and people like Lukacs and Gramsci were responsible for theorising the state's articulation of the politics of persuasion and consent.

The Backfiring Attempted Takedown of Dr. Paul Thomas
Davis Taylor, Peace and Prosperity - 5 hours ago
[image: undefined] A coordinated effort is underway to silence and discredit those putting forth any information that conflicts with the mantra that “vaccines are safe, necessary and effective” (the mantra). Big Pharma and its cronies in the state and media are at the helm of the effort. Of course, the mantra is merely a Big Pharma marketing slogan, and it’s preposterous to believe that it scientifically buttons-up the highly complex topic of vaccines and their associated diseases. Those paying attention while this plays out are accustomed to stories of doctors and scientists whos...

Adam Seagrave, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Adam Seagrave* *History, The Americas* John Brown was a leading white abolitionist who engaged in many peaceful efforts to free and assist enslaved African Americans before the Civil War. But his methods eventually shifted. One of the most underappreciated figures in the nation’s history, John Brown, has been introduced to Americans by the recent Showtime series “The Good Lord Bird,” based on the James McBride novel of the same name. Too often dismissed as a failed zealot, Brown was an unconventional anti-slavery leader who blazed a trail that Abraham Lincoln would follow just ...

*Charlie Gao* *Technology, Middle East* [image: Wikimedia Commons] By most accounts, the rifle is terrible in almost every metric. *Here’s What You Need to Remember:* The Iranian arms industry has been compelled to go back to basics. The Iranian defense industry is known for making some eye-catching claims and prototypes. The KH-2002 “Khaybar” is one of those, a futuristic-looking bullpup that caught the eye of many foreign watchers. But by most accounts, the rifle is terrible in almost every metric. Given that it’s based on the American M16, which is known to be very reliable w...

“To me, there are three things we all should do every day. We should do this every day of our lives. Number one is laugh. You should laugh every day. Number two is think. You should spend some time in thought. And number three is, you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But think about it. If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that’s a full day. That’s a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you’re going to have something special. I just got one last thing... I urge all of you, all of you, to enjoy your life, the precious moments you have.” -...
Over Half of Military Families do Not Want COVID Vaccines – Employers Cannot Legally Mandate Experimental Shots
AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 5 hours ago
The Vaccine Reaction is reporting that a recent survey found that 53 percent of U.S. military families do not want to take the experimental mRNA COVID injections. Among deployed troops overseas, most of them are refusing the COVID shots. While the military acknowledges that they cannot legally require anyone to receive an experimental injection not yet approved by the FDA, some businesses in the U.S. are attempting to do just that. If federal law and federal guidelines issued by the CDC and FDA make such mandatory requirements illegal, then why are some employers trying to make the ...
