2 December, 2020 * Sheldon Whitehouse’s Climate Inquisition continues* Senator Torquemada wants to jail those who dissent from his alarmist views on climate Paul Driessen Five years ago, I said Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) behaves like Torquemada, using Inquisition-like tactics to harass “manmade climate crisis” skeptics, and threatening to prosecute them for racketeering.

Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 19 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Asia-Pacific* [image: Wikimedia Commons] News that Spruance had routed the Imperial Japanese Navy meant that 20,000 Japanese soldiers on Saipan were now trapped, with no hope for reinforcements or resupply. All they could do was exact a gruesome price for each yard they lost. On June 10, 1944, as his troop transport churned through the Pacific toward the Japanese-held island of Saipan, Pharmacist’s Mate First Class Stan Bowen wrote a letter to his sweetheart, Marge McCann. The letter would not be mailed until after Bowen and the Marines had alr...

Suddenly the devices explode, one after the other, engulfing everything in a ball of flame. In a matter of minutes, entire buildings are incinerated, leaving behind only scattered mounds of charred wood and piles...

*Peter Suciu* *Security, Middle East* Israel certainly hopes not. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* While it is true that the Israeli Air Force operates the F-35I Adir, the specially-modified Israeli-only version of the Lockheed Martin aircraft, Saudi Arabia hasn’t been involved in open conflict with Israel since 1973’s Yom Kippur War. It isn’t exactly written in stone yet that the United Arabs Emirates will receive the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter—in part because Joe Biden’s foreign policy advisor, Tony Blinken, had suggested that the advanced aircr...

It may be a statement of the bleeding obvious, but a face-off with the People’s Republic of China would not be a good idea.
