Inexplicata (IHU), Inexplicata-The Journal of Hispanic Ufology - 6 hours ago
*Source: Luis Burgos (FAO/ICOU - Argentina)* *Date: 05.11.2021* * Argentina: Was a "Mothership" Seen in Mar del Sur?* Mar del Sur is a small community on the Atlantic coast, located between Miramar and Centinela de Mar (Province of Buenos Aires). Precisely last night, Tuesday, May 10 at 22:30 hours, a resident noticed a strange anomaly in the sky and remarked about it with relatives, who in turn gave notice to a UFO group. The witness apparently returned home by car along Avenida 100 after going on an errand, when he noticed a vehicle "hanging" in the sky. He reduced speed,...

Drunken U.S. looking for another war
Bruce K. Gagnon, Organizing Notes - 6 hours ago
My guess is that intervention by Germany and France helped pressure Washington to back-off pushing its puppet regime in Kiev to jump off the cliff and provoke war with Russia. I'm certain that Russian allies like China, Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, and other nations also made it known to the US that Biden's early aggressive language aimed at Putin, and NATO military moves along the Russian border, are a threat to world peace. The US has long ago lost its moral authority to dictate terms to the world. There is a seismic shift underway. Washington is a lonely drunken angry cowboy ...

Popularity Doesn't Matter: People Are More Persuaded By The Actual Messages In Social Media
News Staff, Science 2.0 blogs - 6 hours ago
If a post is not popular, you will never see it, so views count, but it is the message and not the popularity of it that persuades people, according to a new paper. 819 demographically diverse American adults aged 18-35 were shown two YouTube videos either for or against vaping. The pro-vaping videos were commercials for e-cigarette brands. The anti-vaping videos were public service announcements produced by anti-tobacco groups. What was changed was the view numbers that participants saw for the videos. Participants saw view numbers either around 10, 100, 100,000 or 1,000,000. rea...
Will There Be Another Stimulus Payment? Democrats Are Pushing for It
Ethen Kim Lieser, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Stimulus Payments, * One such individual pushing for $2,000 monthly stimulus payments is Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman. As the disbursement of third round of coronavirus stimulus checks begins to wind down, there appears to be more chatter in Washington regarding more direct payments to assist financially struggling Americans amid the ongoing pandemic. Keep in mind that to date, Congress has already approved the delivery of three stimulus cash payments to most Americans—a $1,200 check in April 2020, $600 in December, and the current $1,400 payments under Preside...
The ‘Great Game’ Is Back: Are Americans Ready for Great Power Competition?
Andrew Doran, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Andrew Doran* *Great Power Competition, Eurasia* Great power competition requires visionary spirits, courageous persons who venture into unknown lands on behalf of their country, with confidence in the civilization that produced them. It is simply a different age in American history, a soft age, and it may be that the costs of that competition require a price we are unprepared to pay. The phrase “the great game” was coined by the British spy-soldier-diplomat Arthur Conolly and later immortalized by Rudyard Kipling. Peter Hopkirk’s 1992 book bears the same name and tells the stor...
No Easy Task: U-2 Spy Planes Once Landed on an Aircraft Carrier
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Caleb Larson* *U-2 Spy Plane, * This was likely one of the only times U-2s were used from aircraft carriers—though we will likely never know for certain due to the secretive nature of the U-2G’s missions. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Aircraft carriers are floating pieces of American sovereignty, armed to the teeth and answerable only to the President. If a U-2 could be launched and recovered from an aircraft carrier, U-2s could reach most of the globe, without having to negotiate the political complexities of housing spy planes on foreign soil. The venerable U-2 spy plan...
Nazi Germany Had Some Weird Ideas for How to Sink Allied Warships
Caleb Larson, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Caleb Larson* *World War II, Europe* U-boats were deadly, provided they could find their targets. This weird device was meant to help. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* Because of the deployment time needed to launch one, and the fact that a rotor kite could give away the U-Boat’s position, they were mostly used in the Indian Ocean. During the Second World War, submarines were limited in what they could see, often only able to see as far as their periscopes would allow them — merely several miles in any direction. But with this weird device, they increased their line of sigh...

Identity politics is blind to property relations
barovsky, The New Dark Age - 8 hours ago
A minority can only rule a majority using two conscious levers. To co-opt and corrupt the leadership and thinkers of the working class. To divide the working class. What is breath taking over the last thirty years is how this corruption and these divisions have fused together in the form of the pervasive ideology of post-modernism, intersectionality and identity politics. In short not so much the end of history as the end of class politics.

Biden Shouldn’t Pressure Seoul into ‘Strategic Clarity’
James Park, The National Interest - 7 hours ago
*James Park* *Korean Security, Asia* South Korea's attempts to remain in the good graces of both China and the U.S. are becoming increasingly untenable. Washington runs some serious risks by forcing it to choose. Amid an intensifying US-China rivalry, South Korea under the Moon Jae-in administration has delicately pursued balanced diplomacy through “strategic ambiguity.” This allows South Korea to benefit from engagement with the United States, its long-standing military ally, and with China, its largest trading partner, without having to choose between them.

Is Iran Getting Ready to Attack Israel?
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 7 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *Iran, Middle East* Hossein Salami made many references to Israel’s supposed “vulnerabilities” to “domino-style” attacks. While Iran’s political and military leaders are not exactly known for making measured, reserved or unprovocative remarks, stating that “Israel could be blown up in a single operation,” would be considered an aggressive comment even for Iranians. At the same time, Iranian national documents and philosophies do specifically call for the destruction of Israel. Thus, these comments from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Maj. Gen. Hossein Sal...

*Caleb Larson* *Russian Submarines, Eurasia* The infamous Foxtrot-class reared her head during both the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Crimean Crisis in 2014. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The Foxtrot-class had its most well-known (or rather infamous) moment during the Cuban Missile Crisis, considered by so as the closest the world has ever come to World War III and thermonuclear war.
