"Against All Odds..."
"There's a little animal in all of us and maybe that's something to celebrate. Our animal instinct is what makes us seek comfort, warmth, a pack to run with. We may feel caged, we may feel trapped, but still as humans we can find ways to feel free. We are each other's keepers, we are the guardians of our own humanity and even though there's a beast inside all of us, what sets us apart from the animals is that we can think, feel, dream and love. And against all odds, against all instinct, we evolve." - "Grey's Anatomy" read more
"Our Time’s 1989 Moment, Maybe?"
*"Our Time’s 1989 Moment, Maybe?"* by Eric Peters "The good news is the wheels are finally coming off. It was the only way the runaway truck of Sickness Psychosis could ever be stopped. The Biden Thing’s heavy-handed attempt to force-medicate the entire country has been stymied by the courts – again! – which should make it much harder for the corporations to force-medicate employees. They now have both firmer ground to stand on as regards refusing to go along with it as well as the far more important pressure-relief valve of an alternative to it. Without a government mandate, appli... read more

*Defense News:* *Russia can now attack Ukraine with ‘very little warning,’ Pentagon leaders warn* WASHINGTON ― U.S. defense leaders warned Friday that President Vladimir Putin “clearly now has the ability” to have his forces invade Ukraine with “very, very little warning,” but that U.S., NATO and Ukrainian forces stand ready to respond if that happens.

These Are History's Five Worst Wars
*Kyle Mizokami* *Military History, World* The most lethal war in human history is almost certainly World War II but others were just as catastrophic. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *All wars are awful. Some wars are much, much more awful than others. This is by no means a comprehensive list, nor does it comprise anything but a fraction of the overall deaths in wars in human history. Still, the five wars on this list may have collectively killed up to a quarter of a billion people. These wars were big and upset the status quo.

It’s no secret. The U.S. Navy can’t afford all the ships it wants. At the same time, China’s deployment of hundreds of long-range anti-ship missiles threatens to render obsolete the ships the Navy already does have.

The Gates iof Hell
Just a couple of themes to understand. Our newspapers are liars. They always have been since their origin in the late 19th century. The earliest newspapers were, as they had to be, created by rich people.

The British army invaded Germany and plundered it into poverty. (Indeed, that is what gave an unkown Hitler his opening.) There was no excuse for what the British did.
