Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 13 minutes ago
A federal judge ordered drone whistleblower Daniel Hale’s arrest, and United States authorities took him into custody.

Judge Theresa Carroll Buchanan, a different judge than the one who has presided over his case, held a hearing on the alleged “pretrial release violation.” Hale maintained no violation had occurred, yet the court scheduled a bond revocation and detention hearing for May 4.

Want to Simulate World War III? Play This Game
Michael Peck, The National Interest - 27 minutes ago
*Michael Peck* *War, Global* Flashpoint Campaigns: Red Storm focuses on the practice of command. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Like a real commander, the player can only place his troops in the most advantageous position and hope for the best. Forget politics. Forget history. Who knows why the Soviets invaded West Germany in 1989? Perhaps it was a bad grain harvest in the Ukraine. Perhaps they feared the U.S. would strike first. Or, maybe the Soviets simply decided—like many an empire or perhaps even a certain North American republic—that the only way to demonstrate they w...
Biden Lied About Yemen

We are being lied to about yet another US war by yet another US president. “The United States continues to provide maintenance support to Saudi Arabia’s Air Force given the critical role it plays in Saudi air defense and our longstanding security partnership,” Pentagon spokesperson Jessica McNulty has informedVox reporte...
Colombian Campesino Leader: This Is An Authoritarian Regime
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 35 minutes ago
First of all, we, as a campesino association, the National Agrarian Coordinating Committee, have been involved in the mobilizations from the very beginning and from there we have helped to maintain the mobilizations which have taken place over the course of the last several days. There have already been some partial achievements. I say partial achievements because they are simply moves by the establishment to try to demobilize the protests. I am referring to what is already happening with the withdrawal of the tax reform as a bill, but also the resignation of the Minister of Finan...

Why Did the Military Stop Using Flamethrowers?
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 27 minutes ago
*Peter Suciu* *Flamethrowers, World* The DoD effectively retired their use in combat in 1978. *Here's What You Need to Know*: From ancient times to the Cold War, fire has played an important role in warfare. The idea of using fire as a weapon likely occurred as soon as the first human settlement was attacked by a rival tribe. The problem is that fire doesn’t know friend from foe and for eons couldn’t really be controlled. The earliest known example of a “controlled burn” directed at an enemy was the Bzyantine’s “Greek Fire.” Exactly what ingredients went into the mixture and how...

China Wanted Two More Super Aircraft Carriers, But That Idea Sank
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 27 minutes ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Aircraft Carriers, Asia* For over a decade, China has been steadily building up plans to deploy six aircraft carriers of progressively greater capability. *Here's What You Need to Know*: China’s downsizing of its carrier ambitions may leave it with more time to evaluate just what the carriers of the future will really look-like—and whether they’re worth the cost. China’s People’s Liberation Army Navy takes many of its cues from the U.S. Navy as it develops its carrier aviation branch. It is seeking similar flat-deck carriers to its U.S. counterpart, and has de...

Of course, the B-2 story suggests that the biggest question may be whether the B-21 can stay on budget, and just how many Washington will be willing to pay for when the bill comes due.

"A gorgeous spiral galaxy some 100 million light-years distant, NGC 1309 lies on the banks of the constellation of the River (Eridanus). NGC 1309 spans about 30,000 light-years, making it about one third the size of our larger Milky Way galaxy. Bluish clusters of young stars and dust lanes are seen to trace out NGC 1309's spiral arms as they wind around an older yellowish star population at its core. Not just another pretty face-on spiral galaxy, observations of NGC 1309's recent supernova and Cepheid variable stars contribute to the calibration of the expansion of the Universe. Stil...

AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 4 hours ago
There are so many tragic stories now of loved ones dying after taking an experimental COVID injection, that one has to wonder if people are now starting to become desensitized by all these stories as the public is perhaps being conditioned to accept "death by lethal injection" as part of the "new normal?"

“The Loss Of Dignity”

*“The Loss Of Dignity”* by The Zman “If you step back and think about it, the normal man can probably list a dozen things he cannot say in public that he grew up hearing on television, usually as jokes. Then the jokes were no longer welcome in polite company and soon they were deemed “not funny” by the sorts of people who worry about such things. The same was true of simple observations about the world. Somehow noticing the obvious became impolite, then it became taboo and finally prohibited. The reverse is true as well. Middle-aged men can probably think of a dozen things that we...

When it Comes to Camouflage, No One Beats the U.S. Marine Corps

*Caleb Larson* *U.S. Marine Corps, * The Marines are the best of the best—as is their camouflage. Hence the saying, “No better friend, no worse enemy.” *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Like other camouflage, the MARPAT pattern is designed to blend the wearer with his or her surroundings to make them less visible to the naked eye. MARPAT camouflage achieves this through the use of pixilated fractals, essentially rectangular pixels, which camouflages the wearer over a range of distances, or scales. Marines are easily recognizable by their uniforms—this is by design. The Marine ...
