One Innovation Makes The Glock 46 Better Than The Competition
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 10 minutes ago
*Charlie Gao* *Technology, Americas* The Glock 46 stands as a stark counterpoint to those who say the company cannot innovate. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *For all its advanced features, the Glock 46 has only been adopted by one agency, the state police of Saxony-Anhalt, replacing SIG P225s. Other recent Glock adopters appear to have opted for more traditional Glocks. However, for future contracts, the innovative Glock 46 could be Glock’s answer to an increasingly competitive polymer pistol market. Glock GmbH is criticized by some for being one of the least innovative co...

Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 10 minutes ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *History, Middle East* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2013%3Anewsml_GM1E96S076O01&share=true] The F-15I was made for the IDF and this special version performed well. *Key Point*: Even today, Israel loves its F-15I fighter jets. These vaunted aircraft have fought in many battles and won. One of the fighter jets most associated with Israel is the F-15 Eagle. The first F-15 touched down in Israel in 1976 and the jet has served continuously—and without defeat—since. In 1998, the Israeli Air Force introduced a new version of the jet,...

A Biden Saving Grace-- Or A Fakeout?

I was talking with a friend of mine today-- a super-progressive-- about how the CIA and FBI seem so blatantly opposed to Trump. I don't want to start raging about the "deep state," but in my 7 decades on this earth I can't think of a time when I ever thought of the CIA and FBI as the "good guys." And then when I read about these hotshot monsters from those and other allied organizations endorsing Biden... well, it confirms all my worst fears about what a mess we're headed for in January.

The Mind Body Dichotomy and Theological Philosophy
Unknown, The Conservative Socrates - 1 hour ago
There is no historical record of any community at any point of time developing a religious philosophy (theology) before it became aware of the idea that there is a difference between the body and the mind, that the material world that can be observed through the senses is not the only thing that exists, and that there are things that are mental, spiritual, and transcendental. Thus it’s logical to look at the issue of the difference between the mind and body as the intellectual spark that has ignited the flames of religious (theological philosophy), from which, over a period of sev...

Is Trump the Most Pro-Pharma President in History? QAnons Continue to Lose Credibility
AdminM, Medical Kidnap - 4 hours ago
It is important to remember that President Trump did not come through the political ranks like most presidents before him. He was chosen from the Wall Street Billionaires club. Since the COVID plandemic started earlier this year, over $7 TRILLION of federal funds has been allocated to fight "the virus." Most of that is for the multiple vaccines being developed under Operation Warp Speed, which was basically given a blank check to spend as much money as needed to develop COVID vaccines.

Military And Intelligence News Briefs -- October 9, 2020
War News Updates Editor, War News Updates - 5 hours ago
*Jack Watling, RUSI:* *The Key to Armenia’s Tank Losses: The Sensors, Not the Shooters * Amid a lively debate about the viability of the UK’s heavy armour, the loss of over 42 Armenian T-72s to Azerbaijani forces in Nagorno-Karabakh requires further analysis. Despite the heavy Armenian armoured losses, the key lessons from the videos Azerbaijan has published online are not about armour. Rather, they reflect how the density of sensors on the modern battlefield is changing the balance in combined arms warfare. *Read more* .... *Military And Intelligence News Briefs -- October...
the community of pure light and beauty
Bob Dinn, balance10 - 5 hours ago
The Sun shines bright over the world. The clouds of ignorance, of shame, of senseless struggle that have beleaguered humanity, spanning the centuries, continue to be magnified in humanity to the present hour, but the Sun shines on. New direction must be accepted by humanity ere they perish…. The minute errors that were laid in the foundation of the Christian church while small enough in their day grew to such proportions as to render almost impotent the pure and beautiful teachings of the Great Master. But the Holy Spirit has remained u...
The Risk of Russian and Chinese Weapons Sales in the Middle East—and What American Can Do about It
Ari Cicurel, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Ari Cicurel* *Security, Middle East* [image: Reuters] Even as the United States focuses more on the Asia-Pacific and Eastern Europe, it should provide its Middle East partners with alternatives to Chinese and Russian military hardware and investment. America’s role in the world and its relations with China and Russia took center stage at the Vice-Presidential debate. The candidates hit on the broad threats these countries pose to U.S. national security, but ignored their growing military and nonmilitary influence in the Middle East. Washington can compete with this predatory inf...
This Nazi Cruiser Was the First Warship Ever Sunk by Air Attack During Wartime
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* Königsberg, the German cruiser, made history during the Nazi invasion of Norway. *Key Point*: The Königsberg was the first naval vessel in history to be sunk by air attack during wartime. When the German invasion of Norway was set in motion on April 9, 1940, much of the planning for the event had been done on a shoestring. Adolf Hitler, in fact, had given General Nikolaus von Falkenhorst only five hours to put together a coordinated scheme for victory. Falkenhorst, nevertheless, accepted the assignment, admitted that he “had no idea w...
Meet the Man Who Outsmarted and Took Down Hitler's U-Boats
Warfare History Network, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Atlantic* Frederic John Walker turned the tables on the German U-boat menace. On this writer’s desk sits a small, pewter mug, dented and somewhat bat-tered. It is neatly engraved, and the lettering reads: “Wardroom H.M.S. *Harrier*, presented by Q.N. 20 Course June 1956. ‘Tally Ho Pounce.’” The little mug is a souvenir of one of the endless series of tactical exercises the Royal Navy runs year in, year out. This endless and exacting practice is one of the reasons nobody knows more about, among other operations, anti-submarine warfare than the m...
Why a Naval Blockade of North Korea Would Utterly Fail
James Holmes, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*James Holmes* *Security, Asia* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2015%3Anewsml_TM3EB180SYC01&share=true] It is a terrible strategy that at least would take too long to work. *Key point: *Blockades take a lot of time, resources, and determination. If Washington wanted to increase pressure on North Korea it has other ways. Donald J. Trump adores splashy gestures. On the other hand, the president displays little enthusiasm for launching new military adventures. Suppose his administration decided to go big in response to a North Korean ballistic-miss...
