Thanks to North Korea and China, Japan’s Navy Has a Reason to Grow
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Japan, Asia* The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force increasingly resembles the former Imperial Japanese Navy, but in a smaller size. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *One type of warship the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force won't operate is a battleship, and there are no plans for a 21st-century version of the *Yamato* super battleship. The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force increasingly resembles the former Imperial Japanese Navy, but in a smaller size. It has a fleet of some 154 ships and operates 346 aircraft. In 2000 it has also been the world's fourth-larges...

*Peter Suciu* *Security, Asia* This was the first time since Washington and Taipei ended formal diplomatic ties in 1979 that the island nation has admitted the presence of U.S. forces. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Despite the fact that Washington has not officially acknowledged the presence of U.S. troops in Taiwan for more than forty years, it is known that military exchanges had been commonplace prior to the Covid-19 outbreak. This week the Taiwanese government publicly acknowledged that members of the United States Marine Corps have begun training operations on the isl...
The Most Brutal War in History: Russia Will Never Forget the Second World War
Robert Farley, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Robert Farley* *History, Europe* The casualties number in the tens of millions. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The scars of the war remain, not least in the absence of the populations exterminated during the conflict. The states occupied by the Soviet Union at the end of the war (including Poland, the Baltics, and Ukraine) remain deeply suspicious of Russian intentions. For its part, memory of the war in Russia continues to condition Russian foreign policy, and Russia’s broader response to Europe. The war between Germany and the Soviet Union officially began in late June ...
Yellen, Lagarde vs Bitcoin
Luboš Motl, The Reference Frame - 21 hours ago
Two weeks ago, the president of the European Central Bank (ECB) Christine Lagarde said that Bitcoin was unlikely to be held by central banks, it is used for funny business. At about the same time, Elon Musk added the word "Bitcoin" to his Twitter profile. The Bitcoin price added some 15% in hours as a result – as millions of dimwits interpreted the comment as an order to BUY BUY BUY. In the process of merging the two most notorious one-trillion bubbles of the contemporary crazy financial world, the uncompetitive carmaker Tesla bought $1.5 billion worth of Bitcoin and said that it wou...

Era Regeringar Ljuger och Bedrar - Ett Citat av M.N. Hopkins
Stranger in a Strange Land, Stranger in a Strange Land - 22 hours ago
*Era regeringar ljuger och bedrar för att behålla makten över andra. Gud vill dela makten av Anden. Styrkan är tillgänglig för dem som söker ett bättre sätt att leva för alla. Ty var säker att Herren ogillar orättvisa och ojämlikhet. Några stjäl från de många, som vill kontrollera flödet av varor och tjänster för egen vinning. En stor obalans mellan människors makt, ett förnekande av många med kunskaper och talanger som skulle kunnat bidra till att göra vägen lättare för många behövande.* *© **M.N.

*Uw regeringen liegen en bedriegen om macht over anderen te behouden. God wil de kracht van de Geest delen. De kracht die beschikbaar is voor hen die streven naar een betere manier van leven voor allen. Want de Heer heeft zeker een hekel aan onrechtvaardigheid en onrechtvaardigheid. Enkelen die stelen van de velen, die leven in een poging om de stroom van goederen en diensten te beheersen voor hun eigen winst.

Die Kraft, die denen zur Verfügung steht, die eine bessere Lebensweise für alle suchen. Denn der Herr mag Ungerechtigkeit und Ungleichheit nicht. Einige Wenige, die von den Vielen stehlen, leben in dem Bestreben, den Fluss von Waren und Dienstleistungen für ihren eigenen Profit zu kontrollieren.
