Why Does the CCP (China) Believe Americans Can Be Easily Deceived?

by

“Americans have three fatal weaknesses: 1. Greed (especially among Wall Street and American corporations); 2. Naïvety; 3. Ego (especially among politicians). As long as we grasp these three weaknesses, America will turn into a kite in our hands.”

How the CCP Perceives Americans

Cultural Rewards

by

During WWII the upper echelon German leaders’ culture was fight to the death embracing even suicide…as Hitler did. The troops, however, were not fatalistic inasmuch as when faced with obvious over-powering odds they surrendered. The Japanese had a different culture: Military officers and their soldiers believed honorable death, including Hara‑kiri, was preferrable to capitulation. Their Emperor was slightly more realistic, calling it quits after experiencing the devastation of nuclear bombs.

America’s Quiet Military Draft Crisis: The Test That Won’t Lie

by

For a century, the Department of Defense (now DoW) has asked a brutally simple question: can you read, can you reason, can you do basic math, can you learn a job without turning equipment into modern art? This isn’t about genius. It’s about baseline competence—the kind that keeps helicopters in the sky and generators from becoming bonfires.

The Lie We Tell Ourselves About Food—and the Chemical Trick Keeping Billions Alive

by

We like to pretend food comes from virtue. Hard work, sunshine, maybe a red barn and a guy in overalls. Reality check: your dinner exists because of industrial chemistry, fossil fuels, and a process that forces atmospheric nitrogen to behave like it’s being interrogated in a back room. At the center of this quiet miracle—and quiet dependency—is the Haber-Bosch process. It doesn’t get headlines. It doesn’t trend. But it’s arguably one of the most important inventions in human history, because it broke the natural limits on how much food we can produce. Without it, the global population wouldn’t look anything like it does today.

CHANGING TIDES?: Trump shakes up the Strait with major move amid Iran missile attacks

Mideast War: Hormuz Fighting Raises Prospect of Fresh US Strikes on Iran

by

The US and Iran exchanged fire in a flareup of violence on Monday that also drew in the United Arab Emirates, prompting calls for renewed strikes on Iranian targets and casting doubt on the fate of a four-week ceasefire. Bloomberg’s Joumanna Bercetche has the latest.

When Cement Meets Jihad: How Lafarge Turned War Into a Business Model

by

From roughly 2012 to 2014, as Syrian Civil War turned northern Syria into a live-fire apocalypse, Lafarge made a calculated decision: stay open, stay profitable, and if that meant paying off armed groups—including ISIS and al-Nusra Front—then so be it. Business is business. Even if your business partners occasionally crucify people for sport. The company didn’t just stumble into this. Courts later described it as an organized system. Money moved. Deals were made. Raw materials, checkpoints, safe passage—all greased with cash. The same way you’d negotiate trucking contracts in Ohio, just with more AK-47s and fewer HR policies.

Blue Wednesday for communists Iran is losing. Comey is losing. And America is having a great week.

Things are not going as planned for the communists.

Jenni tweeted, “In case anyone isn’t aware, Trump is demanding Zambia to hand over its mineral rights by end of day tomorrow or the U.S. gov’t will cut off the country’s access to the AIDS medications that are literally keeping its citizens alive.’

Islam’s War with the West

by

Considering that Islam has been at war with the West for 1,400 years, it is vital that we understand this struggle in these modern times.

Most people would say that Islam is just another religion, perhaps somewhat more zealous than others, but a religion nonetheless. Well, no! Nothing about Islam is that simple.

Islam is a geopolitical movement disguised as a religion.
