Is Trump Really Just A Gangster?
Daniel Lippman's *Politico* piece Friday on Trump's essential nature carried a very provocative headline: He does nothing without a quid pro quo. Lippman wrote that Señor Trumpanzee "has always viewed life through the prism of his next real estate deal, betting he can just bulldoze opponents into giving him what he wants. But Washington doesn’t work that way. Now, as he battles an impeachment inquiry that sprang from his alleged attempt to bully a foreign leader, those who know Trump say it’s in large measure because he never made the switch from the brash, no-holds-barred New York... more »

Jeremy Corbyn undoubtedly fared better than Dominic Raab on this morning's *The Andrew Marr Show*. Part of that is that the Labour leader put in much the better performance. He was so relaxed by the end that it's a wonder he didn't start purring.

The Pentagon and Lockheed Are Fighting Over Who Really Owns the F-35's Buggy Computers
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Americas* More bad news for the trillion-dollar stealth fighter jet? The U.S. military sees the Lockheed F-35 Lightning as representing a new paradigm of air warfare. The new tactical jet fighter controversially trades in some of the raw agility of preceding fourth-generation jet fighters in favor of capabilities emphasizing stealth, and reliance upon networked computers and powerful long-range sensors and missiles. But the F-35 Lightning also represents a new business paradigm—one in which the jets are offered more and more as a service than as a ph... more »
Why Did a Russian Soldier Shoot Eight of His Comrades in Siberia?

On October 25, 2019, Private Ramil Shamsutdinov—a twenty-year-old conscript—shot eight soldiers at a base near the town of Gorny. He now faces first-degree murder charges and life imprisonment. “That day, [the officers] promised to turn me out,” Shamsutdinov told his fathe... more »

Is The Glock 48 Just A More Concealable Glock 19?
*Charlie Gao* *Technology, * Or is it an overall superior pistol? *Key point: *The Glock 19 is superior in a service pistol role primarily due to being optics ready. The Glock 48 is an interesting combination of earlier Glocks. Built off the basis of the Glock 43X, the Glock 48 is a Glock 19 sized pistol with single-stack width. This gives it an odd combination of capacity and size, akin to single-stack compact pistols of old like Colt Commander variants. A lot of the gun community has been abuzz with comparisons of the Glock 19 and Glock 48, given their similar profiles. But co... more »

Volkswagen, not Škoda, should dominate the cheapest market segment
Shortly after the Velvet Revolution (the fall of communism in Czechoslovakia that began exactly 30 years ago today), the Volkswagen Group bought the Czech mass-market carmaker, Škoda (named Laurin & Klement up to the 1925 acquisition by Škoda Works in Pilsen), and it's been a success story. The car brand that inspired almost all the British car jokes has been turned into a formidable player – perhaps a more competitive one than Škoda was even during the celebrated interwar Czechoslovakia: the main source of pride in the 1930s was Škoda Popular whose price was CSK 17k-30k (most peopl... more »

Israel Has Its Own AK-47: Meet the Galil Rifle
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * Firing 650 bullets a minute, this product of the 1967 War lives up to the hype. *Key Point:* Used for three decades, the Galil rifle proved to be exactly what the IDF needed. The 1967 Six Day War provided many military lessons for the young state of Israel. One of many lessons was that the Israeli Army’s FN FAL battle rifles were too heavy and unwieldy. Israel needed a new assault rifle, and as a result, developed the Galil. Largely based on the Soviet AK-47, the Galil served as the service rifle of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) for nearly three ... more »
Here's What You Need To Know About The Democrats Plans To Tax Americans' Wealth
*Chris Edwards* *Politics, Americas* Here are the plans. Presidential candidates Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren have each proposed an annual wealth tax on the richest Americans. There are so many flaws with such a tax that it probably would not pass Congress. If it did pass, it would likely be repealed soon after as the damage became obvious even to the politicians. The number of European countries with annual wealth taxes has fallen from 12 in 1990 to just 3 today. The Europeans found that wealth taxes induced avoidance, evasion, and capital flight, as I discuss here. The ... more »

Lend-Lease Helped Win World War II, But Not On The Eastern Front
*Robert Beckhusen* *Security, Americas* The evidence is here. *Key point: *If the West had not invaded Europe and provided equipment, it would have taken Stalin far longer to defeat Nazi Germany. Around 80 percent of the more than five million German military deaths in World War II occurred on the Eastern Front. This terrible conflict with the Red Army consumed great quantities of men and material until the Soviets decisively ended the war by capturing Berlin in May 1945. During that time, the Red Army underwent a radical transformation, having been decimated by Joseph Stalin’s ... more »

I have spent almost ten years working to improve the USMC infantry rifle, and I think this article gets it largely wrong about the M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle.
