Why corporations are buying up America's houses
There's been a lot of fuss in the news lately about how companies such as Blackrock are buying up houses left, right and center, often paying over the odds (as much as 15-25% above market) to get them. Many warn that this means the chances of new buyers actually finding a house they can afford are getting smaller by the day - and they're right. However, there's another side to the picture, and that is the inevitable result of the Federal Reserve's policies and the inflation they're generating.

Breakthrough: Ivermectin inhibits the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein from binding to ACE2 receptors in human tissue
Ivermectin, a common anti-parasite drug, has shown great efficacy in the fight against covid-19. For the first time, medical researchers have documented how ivermectin docks to the SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor-binding domain that is attached to the ACE2 receptor. In this way, ivermectin effectively inhibits viral attachment and replication, assisting a precise antiviral response that can target the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein at its most advantageous cleavage site. The researchers showed how ivermectin interferes with the attachment of the spike protein to the human cell membrane. read more

The Fall of the Crusader States: Jerusalem and Acre

On 15 July 1244, the Khwarazmiyya entered the city. There was extensive looting and killing and by the time the Khwarazmiyya left, the city was in such bad shape, with the streets choked with rotting corpses, that the place seemed unfit for human habitation.

One of the slickest rhetorical tricks of the modern choice movement is to weld the idea of "choice" to the idea of privatization.

Sanctions On Syria – A Silent Death And Killing Hope
Sanctions are very often described, by those enforcing them, as “non-lethal” measures. I would argue that sanctions, when used as a brutal and vindictive component of a neo-colonialist hybrid war strategy, are arguably more devastating than a military war. When they are imposed by global super-force nations against target nations like Syria, in conjunction with a proxy war that has been fomented and sustained by the same nations, it becomes as much a weapon of mass destruction as the terrorist/mercenary armies these US aligned nations have unleashed upon the Syrian people. Thus it... read more

Commentators of such leanings depict the ultra-high-tech DDG-1000 as a battleship. Better yet, it’s a “stealth battleship”—a fit ... read more

Awright! Third Time Lucky Raffle!
We've held two raffles for AR-15 pistols in recent months; but they've been of limited interest to handgun fans, who've asked for a raffle to satisfy their interests, too. All right, here we go! I'm offering *at least one, and possibly two prizes* this time around. Previously, I'd sold a maximum of 100 tickets for the raffle, at $25 apiece. However, this time round, there's a lot of interest from the handgun crowd, meaning there may be demand for more than 100 tickets. If so, I'll sell up to 200, *and raffle two guns, with two winners to be drawn*. That way, the odds of w... read more

*WEDNESDAY, JUNE 16, 2021* *First, though, the navel-gazing:* Surely, no serious person alive today is conflicted about the institution of slavery. The institution was outlawed in this country in 1865. No one is suggesting that we bring some form of the practice back. Over the many years, people have surely become acquainted with the pain, and with the horror, of the discarded institution.
