Why are the Houthis Stepping Up Attacks Against Saudi Arabia?
Marco Túlio Lara, The National Interest - 9 hours ago
*Marco Túlio Lara* *Houthis, Middle East* The Iran-backed group sees a real chance of boosting its leverage before negotiations to end the years-long Yemeni war. Since the Houthi takeover of the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, in 2014 and the Saudi-led intervention to fight the rebels in early 2015, Houthi drone and missile attacks against Saudi Arabia have become a common occurrence. While over the years there have been upticks in such attacks, the current intensification that has seen almost daily attacks since early February can likely be explained by one factor: the recent change in t...

The US Is Starving Venezuelans In the Name Of Democracy

The Biden administration granted Temporary Protected Status to refugees from Venezuela, which will permit them to live and work in the United States.

United Nations - The United Nations has rightly described the deaths and devastation in war-ravaged Yemen as the “world’s worst humanitarian disaster”— caused mostly by widespread air attacks on civilians by a coalition led Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Why Harry and Meghan Should Stop Whining
Sumantra Maitra, The National Interest - 11 hours ago
*Sumantra Maitra* *Politics, Europe* Harry and Meghan may be a royal pain, but the monarchy isn’t going anywhere. The curious thing about the Meghan Markle interview was the crying. Lachrymosity in private might be a show of distress, an appeal to power or providence and others, or even a mating strategy, but in public, it turns to a weapon. There is no response to crying. You cannot tell a weepy woman, much less a middle-class woman who married an actual manor born, in public, that she’s talking unsubstantiated rot. There is no evidence to most of her fantastic claims and anecdo...
The F-35A Stealth Fighter Will Soon 'Takeover' the U.S. Air Force
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 11 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *F-35A, * While there are still issues to be addressed with the advanced aircraft, it remains on track to eventually become the primary multirole fighter for the Air Force in the coming years. In August 2020 the United States Air Force was set to receive its 250th Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II, and with that milestone, the fifth-generation multirole stealth warplane became the third-largest fighter fleet in the service's fleet. That number also accounted for nearly half of the total F-35s of all variants delivered worldwide to that point. The Air Force's progr...
Does China have a Master Plan to Destroy the U.S. Navy in a War?
Harry J. Kazianis, The National Interest - 11 hours ago
*Harry J. Kazianis* *U.S.-China War, Asia* The conflict would be hell on earth. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Thankfully, the chances of war between Washington and Beijing seem low—for now. When Chinese officers go to bed at night, what do they fear most? Despite all the hard work, all the billions of dollars spent, no Chinese sailor wants to tangle with the U.S. Navy. As one retired Chinese senior defense official told me in late 2014: “The 3 A.M. crisis ‘call’ I feared the most is that we were at war with your navy.” While such a statement surely tickles the hearts of Pentag...

Why 5th Generation ‘Minus’ Fighters Are the Future
Alex Hollings, The National Interest - 11 hours ago
*Alex Hollings* *F-35, Americas* The F-35 isn’t a cost-effective solution to tactical operations in uncontested or lightly contested environments. Last month, the U.S. Air Force made headlines around the world by suggesting that a new “5th generation minus” fighter might be the answer to the branch’s operational cost woes. After years of touting the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter as the future of military aviation, this announcement led to a flurry of headlines characterizing the F-35 as a failed program.

Metro] Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority’s (WMATA) Metrorail ridership has plummeted roughly 90 percent, with an average daily ridership of 77,000 people in 2021. Could a government bailout save it?

Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 13 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *F-117, * Commonly referred to as a "stealth fighter," the F-117 was actually a ground attack aircraft and in that role, it performed spectacularly.

Developed during the late 1970s as a response to the United States Air Force's request for an aircraft that could be capable of attacking high-value targets without being detected by enemy radar, the F-117 was the firs...

The Fascist Mathematics
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 14 hours ago
Mathematics is fascist because it does not accept the ruses of dialectics. It is unacceptable that for every equation, mathematics gives the factually correct answer and never the politically correct answer. By consistently presenting a systematic and rational view of the universe, mathematics violates the rights of those who want the universe to be unsystematic and irrational; it denies man the liberty to indulge his anti-objective impulses. It might not be possible to ban mathematics, but this subject has to be regulated to ensure that it serves the common good. A classless and hu...

Of course, when that Democratic Party finally went too far, it plunged the country into the worst, deadliest crisis of its history. Let us hope, then, that t...
