Sometimes societies ascend, but eventually, over time, they collapse. For a very long time America has benefited from exploiting the reserves of other nations – their labor, their resources, ...

*"The Reasons Why Leftists Will * *Never Successfully Disarm Americans"* by Brandon Smith Gun confiscation has always been the Holy Grail of totalitarian regimes.

Are You, Like Biden and Kerry, a CO2 Sucker?
Barbara Boyd, LaRouchePAC.com - All Posts - 14 hours ago
Do lemmings, imprisoned by group think, mass and suicidally jump off cliffs? It is true that group think leads to that result, so much so that following the crowd into disaster is now a precise psychological term called the “lemming effect.” But the part about lemming committing some kind of driven suicide is a myth. The wide adoption of the myth in popular culture was helped along by the Disney film, White Wilderness, which depicted the lemmings’ mass suicide. Turns out, this was an illusion, created by Disney’s special effects department, which killed many lemmings in the course...
Rafale Fighter: What Ukraine Needs to Deter Russia?
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Ukraine, Europe* The real problem though may be how to pay for the upgrades. The Ukrainian Air Force is in a tough spot. It has not had a single new aircraft delivered since the dissolution of the Soviet Union thirty years ago. But a recent Russian troop buildup in the Crimean Peninsula highlights the distinct possibility (but fortunately not inevitability) of intensified military conflict with Ukraine’s more powerful neighbor. And in 2014 combat operations Ukrainian warplanes suffered heavy losses to Russian missiles. In May 2020, Kiev announced plans to spen...
Desperate for Victory, Russia Sent Flamethrowers to Fight Finland
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *military, Europe* After the Winter War, a report shows the Red Army came close to a breakthrough on the teletank. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Despite being at the cutting edge of technology, World War II–era drones were only effective in highly specialized circumstances, not ideal for the fast-paced ground warfare of the conflict. The Soviet teletanks were an ambitious attempt to practice the sort of remote-control drone warfare that is rapidly becoming a reality today. On April 18, Moscow announced that it would feature its Uran-9 robot-tanks in its...
India Is In Coronavirus Hell
Michael Head, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Michael Head* *Coronavirus India, India* India is a catastrophic example of a population that has certainly not reached herd immunity against COVID-19. There have been many predictions about how many people have had COVID-19 and whether or not this or that country has reached herd immunity. We have seen this before in Manaus, Brazil, and in India. The optimism is alas always misplaced and occasionally used irresponsibly. We have seen approaches to naturally acquired herd immunity proposed as high-profile ideas for public policy in the UK and internationally, such as the Great B...
Massive: Should South Korea Worry About Kim Jong-Un’s “Koksan” Artillery?
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *North Korea, Asia* [image: North Korea] These large artillery pieces are a potential threat, but could South Korea or America respond with airpower? *Key point: *North Korea has a lot of big guns and they are all pointed right at the capitol of South Korea. Here is how seriously this threat needs to be taken. Seoul has to cope with an unusual urban planning program for a huge, modern metropolis: the northern side of the capital lies little more than thirty miles from the border of North Korea, within range of hundreds of enemy artillery pieces—a zone that Pyo...
More $1,400 Stimulus Checks? Why Joe Biden Might Push for Another Round
Stephen Silver, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Stephen Silver* *Stimulus Payments, * [image: Biden Stimulus] Additional payouts, according to a recent report, would reduce the rate of child poverty and overall poverty. The American Rescue Plan, President Biden’s stimulus package that passed in March, was geared towards giving Americans a hand during the pandemic. But the package had another goal as well: To help assist Americans who are in poverty and left them out of it. In fact, The Urban Institute issued a report in early this year stating that the four major policies in the Rescue Plan would reduce the number of people ...
Yes, Iranian Missiles Could Maybe Sink an Aircraft Carrier
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Iran, Middle East* [image: Iran] In the event of a war, Tehran has many different ways to cause pain to the U.S. Navy that are more dangerous than many might realize. *Key point: *Iran could not win a conflict, but it could take out a fair number of ships and would be a pain to occupy. Here is how it could threaten even aircraft carriers. In 2009, it became clear that China had developed a mobile medium-range ballistic missile called the DF-21D designed to sink ships over 900 miles away. This then-nascent technical achievement gave rise to a still-ongoing de...
Coronavirus Vaccine Card: What If You Lost It?
Stephen Silver, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Stephen Silver* *Coronavirus Vaccine Card, * [image: Stimulus Checks] What happens if you lose the card, in between vaccine appointments or days later? There’s been a great deal of debate in recent months about the ethics and efficacy of “vaccine passports,” in regard to coronavirus vaccination. That’s the idea that there would be some type of official record of who is or isn’t vaccinated, and for such passports to be required to do certain things, like fly or enter certain establishments. The federal government has not announced any type of plan for a federally recognized vacc...
What the World Learned from Russia’s Flying Tank
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 14 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *military, Eurasia* The Su-25 Frogfoot was created in response to a titanic clash between the ground forces of NATO and the Warsaw Pact by busting tanks and blasting infantry in Close Air Support missions. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *The *Su-25 Frogfoot*, known as the Grach or “Rook” by Russian pilots, is one of those aircraft that may not be at the cutting edge of technology, but still has seen widespread service around the world because it offers an effective and useful solution to the need to blast targets on the ground. As such, its obvious stablem...

Not His Thing
Owen Gray, Northern Reflections - 15 hours ago
This week Doug Ford said he was sorry. And he cried. Bruce Arthur writes: The premier is in self-isolation after exposure to a positive COVID case, and broke down talking about not being able to hold a parent’s hand as they die, and maybe that was part of the emotion. Maybe it really was the accumulated weight, but then, we are all carrying accumulated weight. Talk to an ICU nurse sometime. Mostly, Doug Ford didn’t look like he was up to the job. The apology and the tears were good theatre; but they were a distraction: There is a better way to do this, and instead the government d...
