Is There a New World Order Coming? Perhaps, But It Won’t be Islam! by George Mcclellan

by

Do Americans not understand what Donald Trump is doing and has done? The Left certainly doesn’t, but he’s virtually removed Iran, the primary funder of Islamic worldwide terrorism from contention, at the same time diminished the potential for Communist China to continue its aim of achieving world hegemony, and has revealed America’s Western partners (NATO) to be feckless, unworthy allies. Trump has positioned America to become the very center of the world’s energy needs and, in doing so, has destroyed the New World Order’s schemes of doing so. He has realigned trading partnerships by enforcing the Monroe Doctrine, removing both China and Russian influence from our hemisphere. He has redirected the world’s energy needs, and has the Socialist Democrat party frothing at the mouth. Trump did this because nobody else had even thought of trying. This represents a major realignment of the world order.

Velvet Chains, Filtered Reality: Freedom with Guardrails

by

Elections still happen. Parties still act like it’s a steel-cage match. But on the fundamentals—the wiring of the economy, the growth of the administrative state, the handshake between government and corporate power—the menu is pre-selected. You’re not choosing dinner; you’re choosing the garnish. The work of Martin Gilens and Benjamin Page (2014) didn’t need conspiracy theories to make the point: policy outcomes tend to track the preferences of economic elites far more than average voters. Translation: your vote counts; your leverage doesn’t.

MV-75 “Cheyenne II”: Army Aviation’s Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft

by

At its core, the MV-75 is a tiltrotor aircraft. It lifts vertically like a helicopter, then rotates its rotors forward and flies like a fixed-wing aircraft. That combination changes everything. Instead of cruising at traditional helicopter speeds, it moves at roughly 280 knots, covering distances that would have required multiple legs and refueling stops in the past. With a combat range pushing beyond 500 nautical miles, it allows commanders to launch from safer distances and still arrive with speed and precision.

SOH: President Trump Flips the Script – Again!

by

The chattering class has once again been shocked by President Trump’s out-of-the box actions. For years, we’ve been led to believe in the oft-repeated international consensus among “experts” that Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz and has a stranglehold on the world’s hydrocarbon-powered economy.

US destroyer fires on and seizes Iranian-flagged ship

by

US Central Command said the USS Spruance intercepted the Iranian-flagged “Touska” as it traveled towards an Iranian port in violation of the blockade. Iran’s military called it a violation of the US-Iran temporary ceasefire and threatened to retaliate. However, Iran was later accused of violating the ceasefire after reportedly opening fire on ships trying to transit the Strait of Hormuz. CNN’s Ivan Watson reports.

Khe Sanh: The Siege We Won—and the Narrative We Lost

by

There’s a reason Khe Sanh still gets brought up in war colleges, smoky VFW halls, and late-night strategy debates. It wasn’t just a battle. It was a live-fire experiment in something we didn’t have a name for yet—what we now call fifth-generation warfare. Not bullets versus bullets. Not even armies versus armies. It was narrative versus reality. And narrative won.

Do Not Look, But Big Business, Not Allah, Is in Control By George Mcclellan

The main goal behind the Israeli-US war against Iran is patently obvious: control over Iran’s energy sources especially its oil sold to China. For Israel, it’s their self-defense. Sanctions did not stop Iran terrorism policies until military pressure was brought by Trumps “Epic Fury” opération when it became necessary to achieve commercial dominance over middle east energy resources, not Iran. Iran’s belligerent behavior on the world stage holding other countries hostage to Islamic terrorism with the one product everyone needs, petroleum, rendered Iran a pariah nation suitable for behavioral modification. For us, oil is our primary but not only reason. For Iran, religion and money, in that order, is their motive to do what they do because they need the cash their oil producers to destroy Israel. Israel, on the other hand, wants to survive by destroying Iran’s military, especially itsnuclear threats. Dealing with weak leaders since Jimmy Carter, facing indecision, bribery and incompetence over fifty years, made Iran’s goal easy, until Donald Trump.
