Exposing Myanmar's US-Backed Opposition
Land Destroyer, Land Destroyer - 21 hours ago
*May 7, 2021* (Brian Berletic - LD) - The Western media claims Myanmar’s opposition represents the pro-democracy aspirations of the people, contrasting from what they claim is a violent military-led regime. In reality, the government Myanmar's military ousted from power in February was entirely the product of foreign interference - and in no way represented a "democratically elected" government. In addition to that, the Western media has covered up for years the racist, genocidal nature of Aung San Suu Kyi and her support base - in yet another example of the US backing extremis...

Can Ghislaine Maxwell Receive A Fair Trial?
TheDarkMan, The Duran - 21 hours ago
Perhaps a better question would be how can Ghislaine Maxwell receive a fair trial when this woman has already been convicted a dozen, a hundred, a thousand times over in the court of public opinion? This is partly due to lurid accusations and speculation on mostly social media, including YouTube, but also to the nature […]

Corpul a fost creat pentru a se autoîntreține și a se autovindeca - Un citat de M.N. Hopkins
Stranger in a Strange Land, Stranger in a Strange Land - 22 hours ago
*Corpul a fost creat pentru a se autoîntreține și a se autovindeca, dar omul, prin gândirea sa limitată, a crezut că știe mai bine decât Creatorul său și a început să creeze un sistem bazat pe limitare sau autolimitare care a dus la boli și tulburări mentale și emoționale de orice fel imaginabil.

Тялото е създадено, за да се самоподдържа и самолекува - Цитат от M.N. Hopkins
Stranger in a Strange Land, Stranger in a Strange Land - 22 hours ago
Тялото е създадено, за да се самоподдържа и самолекува, но човекът с ограниченото си мислене си е помислил, че знае повече от своя Създател, и е започнал да създава система, изградена върху ограничаване или самоограничаване, което е довело до болести и умствени и емоционални разстройства от всякакъв вид, който можете да си представите. И именно въображението подклаждаше този огън на разрушаване на вече добре функциониращата система. *© **М.N.

Chinese Snipers Are No Joke
Charlie Gao, The National Interest - 21 hours ago
*Charlie Gao* *Security, Asia* While China was once in lockstep with the Soviets in terms of sniper technology, Beijing has since developed its own uniquely deadly weapons. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *While the Type 88 and Type 85 are the most common rifles in use, there also are a myriad of other rifles for precision shooting and special purposes.
