Now he has been appointed again, this time to replace Brexit casualty Sarah Newton, and [...]
DWP ‘victimised’ disabled staff member who claimed discrimination, tribunal finds
Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) managers “victimised” a disabled member of staff after she claimed that she had faced workplace discrimination, an employment tribunal has ruled. It is just the latest case to raise concerns that DWP is institutionally disablist, both in its treatment of disabled benefit claimants and of its own staff. Last [...]
Disabled activists’ bid to find northern DPOs could ‘combat London bias’
A new disabled people’s organisation (DPO) is hoping to bring together DPOs from across the north of England to provide a strong, collective, regional voice on issues affecting disabled people.

Deciphering Svalbard’s climate history
By Paul Homewood We are familiar with ice core data from Greenland showing that the climate there was warmer in the recent past. This study of ice cores in Svalbard, published in 2011 comes up with similar results: During the past thousand years, the average winter temperature in Svalbard’s “capital” Longyearbyen has […]

Assange Arrested by British; Belt and Road Forum Convenes - Which Road Will Be Taken?
Assange Arrested by British; Belt and Road Forum Convenes - Which Road Will Be Taken? Video of Assange Arrested by British; Belt and Road Forum Convenes - Which Road Will Be Taken? Yesterday, Attorney General Bill Barr said he was investigating spying on the Trump Campaign, stating the obvious implication which anyone would draw from the FISA warrants, informants, and wiretaps which have already been disclosed as critical aspects of the fake Russiagate attempted coup against the President of the United States. Barr noted, “spying on a political campaign is a big deal.” The reacti... more »

Do You Think The Worst Presidency In The History Of The U.S. Will End Without A War?
It increasingly looks like Trump is ginning up a war with Iran to get peoples' minds off the Mueller Report and the myriad other problems that are spinning out of control and drowning his presidency and his hopes for reelection. Maybe Venezuela? Yeah, there's always that... but the Saudis and Israelis are both *really* pushing for the U.S. to attack Iran. On Wednesday, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was testifying at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing when Rand Paul (R-KY) reminded him that "Only Congress can declare war. You do not have our permission to go to war with ... more »
Confronting Iran
*Joseph Adam Ereli* *Security, Middle East* The reason this Iranian opposition group has survived for so long is precisely because it has support inside Iran. Michael Rubin’s take-down of the main Iranian opposition group, the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) misses a critical point: The reason this Iranian opposition group has survived for so long is precisely *because* it has support inside Iran. Consider the evidence: Number one: In July 1988, Ayatollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, was compelled to “drink the cup of poison” and agree to a cease-fire with Ira... more »

*Julian Assange and the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, UK* *Wikileaks Editor Dragged into Custody for Telling the Truth* Somedays, it's harder to blog than others. Today is a particularly difficult day. I have about four or five posts almost ready to go and only require a few last minute touch up edits.

Triclosan And 27 Other Ingredients No Longer Allowed In Hand Sanitizers
Consumer hand sanitizers are popular, and they became more popular when brands started advertising they used the same chemicals hospitals use. FDA allowed it starting in 1994 (1994 Health Care Antiseptic TFM (June 17, 1994, 59 FR 31402)), the same year they gave supplements exemption from real FDA oversight. read more
Impeachment Porn And The State Of Journalism
*Ricky Maddow: Moonbat Conspiratorial Rants for a Hateful, Aggrieved, and Ignorant Audience* For 2 years a completely absurd set of allegations presented as fact has dominated the airwaves and paralyzed the executive branch, specifically that the President of the United States of America was 1) a compromised tool of Moscow (New York Times November 29, 2018), 2) had colluded with Russia as a candidate (January 26, 2019), and 3) was an agent of Kremlin (NY Times article January 11, 2019). These falsehoods flashed before our eyes in newspapers, television news shows, social media one-m...more »

World War II Reboot: The Air Force Almost Brought Back the P-51 Mustang
*Michael Peck* *Security, * What? *Incredibly, through the 1970s, Lindsay and Piper pitched the Enforcer not just as a COIN aircraft, but also as America’s primary ground-attack plane. That role happened to be fulfilled by the A-10. It’s one thing to offer a prop job for a niche role like bush wars, but quite another to suggest it should replace a jet as a primary ground-attack aircraft.* The North American P-51 Mustang was one of the greatest fighters of World War II. Had life worked out differently, the Mustang could also have fought in Vietnam and flown against a Soviet inv... more »
The Simple Reason Nazi Germany Smashed France During World War II
*Daniel L. Davis* *Security, * And changed history forever. *Though Germany eventually lost World War II and France again ended up on the victorious side, the leadership traits demonstrated before and during the battle in 1940 are textbook examples of what makes for great leadership—and what kind of leadership leads to defeat.* In May 1940, the German Wehrmacht launched a lightning attack into France and within weeks destroyed the combined French and British armies. The rapid defeat is typically ascribed to a combination of the French High Command’s attempts to refight the meth... more »
How the Greatest Battleships Ever Built Could Make the Ultimate Comeback
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * While a comeback is unlikely, it’s always nice to dream. *While a comeback is unlikely, it’s always nice to dream.* Battleships captivate the imagination. Before they were displaced by aircraft carriers, battleships were symbols of great-power status. Some of the most iconic were the American Iowa class, the last battleships ever built by the United States. Powerful in appearance, yet with sleek lines filled in with haze gray, the Iowa class served in World War II and were unretired three more times to serve as the U.S. Navy’s big guns. If we brought... more »
Getting Freedom of Navigation Operations Right in the South China Sea
*Hyun-Binn Cho, Umut Yüksel* *Security, Asia* [image: Reuters] The law of the sea remains elusive to many, and when territorial seas—or the build-up of artificial islands or military installations—are not being challenged, that should be made clear. There is a growing consensus among experts that freedom of navigation operations (FONOPs) are necessary but insufficient to safeguard U.S. interests in the South China Sea. In recent years, China has built artificial islands and military installations in the region and has pursued its maritime claims with more voracity. In response, t... more »
What Happens When China Becomes the Most Powerful Country in the World?
*David Batashvili* *Security, Asia* [image: Reuters] If China were to lead the world, then democracy would be hard-pressed to remain the mainstream form of political regime it has been for the last century. Globally preeminent states have a tendency to shape the world in many ways. Obviously, they do it in a rather direct manner through their geostrategic activities, but the phenomenon goes much further than that. On purpose or by accident, preeminent states export their internal arrangements to the entire international system. The global political, economic, social, cultural an... more »
The Impact of Great Power Competition on the U.S. Navy
*John S. Van Oudenaren* *Security, Americas* [image: Reuters] The Navy is being asked to prepare for a major war but also conduct all of its regular duties. Can the Navy and American shipbuilding keep up? A state’s defense industrial base is the foundation of its capacity to generate and sustain military power. In few areas is this more salient than naval power, which entails shipbuilding, a costly, lengthy, and resource-intensive process. At a recent Center for the National Interest event, two leading authorities, with direct naval budgeting and force structure planning experie... more »
NATO’s German Problem: Who Needs Soldiers or Weapons?
*Doug Bandow* *Security, Europe* [image: Reuters] Europeans should not rely on Americans to spend, fight, and die for them. The foreign ministers of America’s European allies visited Washington to celebrate the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)’s seventieth anniversary. Members engaged in an orgy of self-congratulation over an alliance which remains better called “North America and The Others.” One of the meeting highlights was preparing to bring in the military behemoth of (North) Macedonia, following the inclusion of equally mighty Montenegro two years ago.

Last Week at the Military Commissions: Pre-sentencing Hearings Continue in United States v. Khan
The military commission for Majid Shoukat Khan, who pleaded guilty to charges related to his role as a low-level al-Qaeda operative in 2012, reconvened on April 1, after a hiatus since July 2018. This one-day session recapped the previous day’s session and defense counsel’s motions to compel the government to produce a laptop for Khan, discovery materials and witnesses. The commission recessed, with a closed session planned for the following day to discuss classified arguments regarding defense counsel’s motions. *Administrative Matters* Military judge Col.
