Politics, Pandemics, and Polemics
Lest We Forget Forty five years ago today, on April 29, 1975, the U.S. military launched Operation Frequent Wind, where the last U.S. forces were airlifted out of Vietnam.

Michigan Doctor Raided by FBI and Arrested for Treating COVID19 Patients with Vitamin C
As we have previously reported here at Health Impact News, doctors all across the world have seen great success in treating COVID-19 patients with high-dose intravenous Vitamin C therapy. When we first reported on doctors doing this in China just after the Wuhan outbreak, Facebook tagged us as "Fake News" and took away our ability to advertise and boost any of our articles. Since that time, we have reported on how many doctors and hospitals here in the U.S. have also successfully used the treatment. Now, a doctor in Michigan has actually had his clinic raided by the FBI and arreste... more »
Life After Kim Jong Un: What are the Next Steps for North Koreans?
*Jihyun Park* *Security, Asia* [image: Reuters] The totalitarian dictatorship of North Korea does not disappear with the death of Kim Il-sung, Kim Jong-il, or Kim Jong-un, just like totalitarianism or the fall of Nazi Germany. Joseph Stalin’s communism, the Nazi’s extreme form of totalitarianism, or the totalitarianism aspects of the killing fields seem to have ended, but totalitarianism remains a prominent part of the North Korean people’s lives. This is because totalitarianism is not a system but rather a movement conveyed by propaganda. As soon as a dictatorship is welcome... more »
Iran's Sea-Skimming Flying Boats Could Shut Down The Strait Of Hormuz In No Time
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Middle East* Bad news for America. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Tehran realizes its naval forces don’t have the survivability or firepower to slug it out with adversaries in a head-on engagement. Instead it would lean on the shallow, confining geography of the Persian Gulf and especially the chokepoint of the Strait—only twenty-nine miles from shore-to-shore at its narrowest point—to launch swarming motorboat attacks, mini-submarine ambushes and long-range strikes with antiship missiles. Iran has fielded a variety of unusual weapons over the ... more »
The F-35 Is Old News Now: Europe Wants A 6th Generation Stealth Fighter
*Michael Peck* *Security, * Can they afford it? *Here's What You Need To Remember: *And with aging populations requiring more social services, and no more Soviet threat to unify them (though Putin’s Russia is doing its best), will the funding be there to support the development of an enormously expensive fighter like the FCAS all the way out to 2040? Does this make sense when there will inevitably be a U.S. competitor to the program? Ever since the guns fell silent in 1945, Europe has always been in third place in the global arms race.

Russia's Small And Quick Alfa-Class Submarine Was An Underwater 'Race Car'
*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * Soviet nuclear-powered attack submarines tended to be faster and deeper-diving than their Western counterparts—though they were also noisier and more prone to horrifying accidents. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Alfa represented a design paradigm for “small but fast” attack submarins that would ultimately fall out of favor compared to “big but stealthy” designs like the Russian *Akula-*class and U.S. *Sea Wolf*-class SSNs. The Project 705 *Lira*—better known abroad as the *Alfa*-class submarine by NATO—was basically a submarine race car,... more »

Why Coronavirus Deaths Counts in the US Could Be Skewed
*Thomas Perls* *Public Health, Americas* [image: Reuters] The government has only just now required nursing homes to start reporting numbers to the CDC. In New York state, 19 nursing homes have each reported 20 or more deaths from COVID-19. A nursing home in New Jersey reported 70 deaths out of its 500 residents. In the words of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, these homes have become a “feeding frenzy” for the virus and “the single biggest fear.” With the clustering of people who are frail and have multiple other illnesses like heart disease, stroke, chronic lung disease and diabete... more »

IF THERE'S A DOUBLE STANDARD IN SCANDAL REPORTING, IT WORKS OUT JUST FINE FOR THE GOP
Right-wingers believe there's a double standard in the reporting of scandals involving politicians. Here's part of a *Washington Examiner* editorial: Without a shred of evidence that Brett Kavanaugh had ever even met Christine Blasey Ford, the news media decided the then-Supreme Court nominee was guilty of an unconscionable sexual assault four decades ago. Kavanaugh went overnight from being understood to be a consummate legal star, women’s advocate, and faithful family man, to being depicted as a sleazy drunkard and would-be rapist. Now, with the presumptive Democratic presidenti... more »
