On January 26 The Seattle Times reported “India’s special forces training with Green Berets at JBLM”, in a narrative that sounded more like a Boy Scout outing than part of an immense hunter-killer drill that is occurring at public beaches and boat marinas in Washington State. Joint Base Lewis-McChord is the home of The Green […]
John Taylor Gatto may be one of the most fascinating educators I have ever read or heard of, even if I question some of his solutions to problems associated with teaching and learning. I have to add that I was introduced to Gatto by his interviews with Richard Grove at the “Tragedy And Hope” website, […]
Well, I guess this is the first publication I have bought that was authored by The Central Intelligence Agency. It is, however, published by Skyhorse Publishing, which I believe also prints some out-there conspiracy books among their wide selection. At 940 pages The CIA World Factbook (2016 edition) is a real brick of a book. […]
Professor Rongxing Li, an expert on space technology at Ohio State University has gone missing. He is presumed to be in China, but U.S. authorities want to have a little talk with him. Li abruptly quit his job developing space technology and his wife was detained by Homeland Security while trying to leave the U.S. […]
Way back in April of 2013 we took a look at the emerging technology of laser weapons in space, primarily to take out “enemy” satellites, and possibly to strike targets on the surface of the planet. Following up, in April 2014 we ran an article about the U.S Navy’s new laser weapon, which appears to […]
Counterpunch has recently run two articles on something I have also been pondering about; whether Donald Trump will survive this election cycle. The first is a somewhat disjointed piece by Robert David Steele, described as a former spy and hacker, that dismisses suggestions that GOP puppet-masters have ordered for Donald Trump to be “taken out”, […]
Obama’s State Department has clearly been out of his control. Right after he made an agreement with Russia’s Putin to destroy Syrian gas weapons rather than bomb Syria, Victoria Nuland orchestrated the coup that overthrew Ukraine and installed a Nazi government. Nuland’s husband is the notorious Robert Kagan, a neo-con member of the war-mongering Kagan […]
Last night over a few cold Beers we were talking about boating from Northern Washington up into Canadian waters. There are some narrows where the tide change is so severe that there are rapids and standing waves that can be very, very dangerous. My father took his boat to Alaska through these waters, and had […]
These days it should be painfully obvious that the military treats their veterans like used Kleen-ex. They’re heroes when the corporations trot them off to war, and seem to be disposed of when they return as damaged goods. No amount of “Wounded Warrior” programs run by civilians can keep up with the seemingly endless supply […]
