Will Joe Biden Close Guantanamo Bay?
War News Updates Editor, War News Updates - 1 hour ago
*WNU Editor:* President-elect Joe Biden committed to the closing of Guantanamo Bay 10 years ago. But will he actually close it? Much of the Democrat base wants to close it, and with Democrats in control of the US government there is really no excuse for Biden to close it. My money is that it will be closed in the coming months, and some of the detainees at this prison will be brought to the U.S.. What happens after that will be court cases, law suits, and the very real possibility that some of these terrorists will be released.

Kant’s Moral Theory: Deontology and Autonomy

He holds that it is your duty to obey the moral law (categorical imperative) only if you have the autonomy to be the author of that categorical imperative. Once you have authored the categorical imperative (accepted it) as the right way, it becomes your duty to obey. The man who adheres to a categorical imperative, does it b...

Why Chinese Weapons are Flowing to Venezuela’s Navy
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *Security, Americas* The Venezuelan Navy likely hasn’t been a top concern for the Pentagon, but that could change. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Caracas and Tehran have also established a reasonably close relationship including bilateral cooperation that includes trade agreements. Iran has also been a major supplier of weapons—including various missiles—to Venezuela. The Venezuelan Navy likely hasn’t been a top concern for the Pentagon, but if reports are true the Armada Bolivariana de Venezuela will be equipped with some rather powerful weapons that could sh...
Robots Could Be Taking Over the U.S. Army’s Anti-Tank Mission
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Americas* Made by Kongsberg, the MCT-30 turret is the first remotely-operated turret to be qualified and fielded in the United States. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The Army and industry have been working for many years to evolve the kinds of manned-unmanned networking necessary to bring this RCV vision to fruition, as it depends upon hardened networks, common data link standards and technical interoperability. The U.S. Army will soon operate robots able to destroy enemy armored vehicles with anti-tank missiles, surveil warzones under heavy enemy fi...
Does This Picture of a B-1 Bomber Prove Aliens Exist?
Peter Suciu, The National Interest - 3 hours ago
*Peter Suciu* *B-1 Bomber, * Next to a parked B-1B Lancer Bomber appears a visual anomaly, which “extraterrestrial expert” Scott Waring—who first apparently discovered the image—suggested was a cloaked U.S. Air Force aircraft or perhaps even a cloaked alien spaceship. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The final consideration that UFO experts should ask is why would you keep the plane in a cloaked state on the runway? Such technology would likely require vast amounts of energy, and then there is always the fact that someone might walk into it*—*something that has been used as a...
US Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin Breaks Ranks With Fellow Democrats And Says House Impeachment Plan 'Ill-Advised'
War News Updates Editor, War News Updates - 3 hours ago
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) © Greg Nash *The Hill:* *Manchin: House impeachment plan 'ill-advised' * Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) said on Monday that a House plan to vote this week to impeach President Trump is “ill-advised,” warning that there aren’t the votes in the Senate to convict the president. "I think this is so ill-advised for Joe Biden to be coming in, trying to heal the country, trying to be the president of all the people when we are going to be so divided and fighting again. Let the judicial system do its job," said Manchin, who represents a state where Trump is very ...
Darin Southam: What's going on?...
Adrienne, Adrienne's Corner - 4 hours ago
* Southam's guess and **your guess** is as good as mine - maybe.* Because my guess is pretty darn radical. Here's the thing, if you're beating up on yourself because you're spending hours and hours pinned to your computer and not "moving on with your life", allow me to remind you we're living in unprecedented times. At least unprecedented in our lifetime. The next few days will be intense to a degree we've never experienced. There is no dispute that silencing Trump supporters, conservatives, and Christians, by attacking their free speech is happening. Their is no doubt people a...

"One of the Greatest Economic Blunders in History"
CoyotePrime, Running 'Cause I Can't Fly 2 - 4 hours ago
*"One of the Greatest Economic Blunders in History"* By Jim Rickards "The U.S. economy lost 140,000 jobs in December. Only about 55% of the jobs lost in March and April have returned. That’s a significant number. Americans and others around the world who make their living as bus drivers, bartenders, waiters, hair stylists and boutique store clerks, among thousands of other jobs, make up 50% of all jobs and 45% of U.S. gross domestic product. This is the part of the economy affected by the lockdowns. They are being destroyed. When the pandemic passes, and we are able to look back on...

Why the Battle of Samar Against Imperial Japan Was So Surprising
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *History, Americas* [image: By U.S. Navy photo NH 90603, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=4410627] The Navy was caught off guard, but it still managed to win. *Key point: *Nothing about this fight went as planned, with the Americans falling into a trap. However, America had six escort carriers in this battle and Imperial Japan had none. In the pre-dawn glow of October 25, 1944, four tubby TBF Avenger torpedo bombers took off on a routine patrol from the *USS St. Lo*. She was one of sixteen small escorts carriers in Taskforce 74.4 ...
A Modern Nuclear Arsenal is Crucial for a Stable Nuclear Deterrence
Steve Cimbala, Adam Lowther, The National Interest - 20 hours ago
*Steve Cimbala, Adam Lowther* *Security, The Americas* Although the arms control community is focused on the opportunity to cut the nuclear deterrent, the President has a responsibility to listen, as well, to the expert advice of his uniformed military advisors who must plan for, operate, and deploy nuclear and conventional forces. President-elect Joe Biden recently indicated that he would review the nation’s nuclear deterrence strategy and weapons modernization program, focusing on reducing their role in national strategy. The review will also look to reduce funding for nuclear ...
Could the Finest Nazi Battleship Really Have Had a Chance Against America’s Best?

*Kyle Mizokami* *History, Europe* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2012%3Anewsml_GM1E85I0MID01&share=true] America's Iowa-class battleship would likely wipe out the Bismarck. *Key point: *America's battleships were large and powerful. But they also had radar-guided guns. Despite the vast scope of the Second World War, the navies of the United States and Nazi Germany fought few, if any, direct surface engagements. By the time of America’s entry into the war the Royal Navy had already sunk or neutralized the lion’s share of Hitler’s *Kriegsmarine*,...

*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * Not all A2AD systems are as technically mature and operationally effective as they are made out to be. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Undeniably, A2/AD weapons can threaten large areas and will likely shape operations in the regions where they are present. However, they cannot “shut down” access to a region by themselves, and their threat can be mitigated through appropriate planning using existing technologies and tactics.

Controlling the Nukes: This Military Plane Could Easily Destroy the World
Sebastien Roblin, The National Interest - 23 hours ago
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Americas* The U.S. Navy’s placid-looking E-6 Mercury, based on the 707 airliner, seems particularly inoffensive, but that is a lie. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The E-6 platform should remain in service until 2040 thanks to a service-life extension program and continual tweaks to its systems and radios. While the Mercury has demonstrated its usefulness as an airborne communication hub for supporting troops in the field, the airborne command post will be considered a success if it never has to execute its primary mission.
