Can a Joint U.S.-Japanese Marine Force Repulse a Chinese Assault on Taiwan?
*Kris Osborn* *Marines, Asia* A recently completed six-month deployment of U.S. and Japanese Marines was not a training exercise but rather a decided effort to replicate and rehearse actual combat scenarios the forces would likely encounter in island areas near Japan and Taiwan. The U.S. Marine Corps is sending a clear message that its force is ready to fight on ocean and island areas alongside allied Japanese forces in the event of any Chinese attack, according to a recently released service video. The video explains that a recently completed six-month deployment of U.S. and ... read more
2021 Was a Huge Year for U.S. F-35. 2022 Could Be Even Bigger
*Caleb Larson* *F-35, * The American-led stealth fighter program has proven successful at home and abroad. It’s been a bang-up year for the F-35 joint strike fighter program. Promotional material from Lockheed Martin, one of the top companies behind the stealth jet, explains that they have delivered about 750 jets to date. *Here, There, and Everywhere* The United States is naturally the number one operator of F-35s worldwide, but other countries are increasingly opting for the stealth fighter and buying into the program. In addition to Finland, Switzerland also purchased F-35s... read more

Have the Majority of Canadians Really Become a Group of Unthinking Automatons?
I want to follow-up on OJ’s post from yesterday. Commenter Filez Navidad shared this Reddit link. This comment particularly roused my ire: That was my opinion in January 2021 too, however there is nothing like seeing the damage and insufferability of anti-vaxxers in real time to change your opinion. Today Trudeau’s stance is the same… Continue reading → read more
The Epiphanies Keep Coming on Epiphany Day
(By *American Zen*'s Mike Flannigan, on loan from Ari) *O*ne year ago today, it had been lost on most that the now-historic and infamous riot that had ground business on Capitol Hill to a three hour-long halt occurred on Epiphany Day. Those of us who'd been around the block more than once or twice knew the revelations would continue leaking, if not spilling, out in the months to come. Yet, what should give every American who cares about our republic cold sweats at night is what we *don't* know even after a year. What we already know is the stuff of nightmares.The FBI did a secr... read more

January 6th: The non-anniversary of a non-event
There's going to be all sorts of brouhaha from the loony left about how, one year ago, a major terrorist attack on the Capitol was only narrowly thwarted, and the Republic saved for democracy. *It's all bullshit.* There was *no* terrorism, there was *no* "attack" (how could there be, when the Capitol police are on film ushering the demonstrators in?), and the whole thing has been seized upon for political propaganda purposes by a progressive left wing that's increasingly desperate to find some - *any!* - cause around which to unite. Their economic policies are a shambles, thei... read more
