Cranbrook biker Brawl - Rebels and Hells Angels
The Canadain Press is reporting that "Cranbrook Mounties broke up a fight on Friday between rival outlaw motorcycle gangs from Alberta that ended with several people to hospital. RCMP say they were called about the fight at a gas station early Friday evening, and officers flooded the area and separated the two groups. Police say that shortly after, the local hospital reported five people showed up with what appeared to be stab wounds."

Game of Thrones in Iraqi Kurdistan
*Farhang Faraydoon Namdar* *Iraqi Kurds, Middle East* A power struggle has ensued. The Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) is a confederacy between the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) its rival Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP). The PUK controls the Sulaymaniyah governorate and its surroundings. It is a quasi-state as it possesses its own diplomatic, military, and intelligence services. The KRI’s existence and stability depend on the relationship between the PUK and the KDP. However, since the absence of its charismatic leader, the PUK’s authority has disintegrated, and the party is... read more

The Iconic Walther P99 As: A Gun That Police Love to Love
*Richard Douglas* *Firearms, * If you’re looking for a full-powered handgun in a compact size, or if you’re looking for a Glock alternative, the P99 is perfect. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Walther P99 AS is one of Walther’s most iconic pistols, trusted worldwide by law enforcement professionals. This innovative handgun is universally adored. Walther’s pistols are known for being accurate, and the P99 is no exception. I’d even say as far as accuracy goes, it’s the best of its kind. Walther’s quick-action trigger system definitely contributes a great deal to the accura... read more
Sorry CIA: The A-12 Spy Plane Couldn’t Beat the SR-71 Blackbird
*Sebastien Roblin* *SR-71, Americas* The SR-71 was actually slightly less stealthy and high-flying than the A-12, but had different intelligence-gathering technology. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *For years, there were rumors of an even faster spy plane, the Aurora, but its existence seems unlikely at this point. Rather, the Pentagon relies on drones and satellites if it needs to cast an eye on a well-defended location. Why risk lives and diplomatic incidents using manned aircraft? The sleek and sinister SR-71 Blackbird looks like it belongs in a science fiction movie, tho... read more
Thousands Dead: The Falklands War was Almost a Bloodbath
*Sebastien Roblin* *History, Americas* The opposing fleets were facing off over the sparsely-populated Falkland Islands, known as the Malvinas in Argentina. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Thus, we can thank a day of unusually mild weather on May 1, 1982 for leaving us with many more living Argentinian and British sailors and aviators today than might otherwise have been the case. On the afternoon of May 1, 1982, crewmen on the deck of the Argentine carrier *Veinticinco de Mayo *(“May 25”) scrambled to load six A-4Q Skyhawk attack planes with four Mark 82 bombs each. The su... read more
Revolt of the Admirals: The Navy Refused to Abandon Nuclear Aircraft Carriers
*Sebastien Roblin* *U.S. Navy, Americas* In the United States, it was assumed that nuclear weapons would be widely employed in future conflicts, rendering conventional land armies and fleets at sea irrelevant. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The schematics for CVA-58 nonetheless informed the Navy’s first supercarriers, named rather appropriately the Forrestal-class, laid down during the Korean War. But the heavy-bomber carrying United States remains notable as the supercarrier the Navy absolutely thought it needed—but which with literally just a couple years more hindsight it di... read more
Problem: North Carolina and Vermont are Running Out of Booze
*Stephen Silver* *Alcohol Shortage, Americas* Vermont saw a 13 percent increase in liquor sales during the pandemic. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *“The coronavirus pandemic has exacerbated the supply chain issues in several industries from meats to materials like glass, and worker shortages, as more people get vaccinated and life gets back to normal,” according to reporter Catherine Muccigrosso. Among the many shortages that have been reported around the United States since the start of the pandemic, from gasoline to ammo to lumber to coins, there is now another: booze. It... read more
Sig Sauer Had a Strategy to Defeat Glock's Guns—Did It Work?
*Charlie Gao* *Firearms, United States* Answer: not quite. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* Apart from France, the SP2022 has been a relative commercial failure compared to the P22x series. On Sig Sauer’s website, only two variants of the SP2022 are listed, as opposed to the myriad of variants of P226s and P320s. As Sig Sauer GmbH in Germany and Sig Sauer, Inc in the United States cleaved themselves from the remnants of the Swiss Schweizer Industrie Gesellschaft (SIG) in the 1990s, both firms needed a new pistol to compete with Glock. Glock’s polymer frame offerings were begi... read more
The Montana-Class Battleship: The Super Warship the Navy Passed On
*Kyle Mizokami* *Battleships, Americas* Numerous proposals were floated for the Montana-class ships, though they all had one thing in common: they were considerably larger than the Iowas. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The U.S. Navy never built more battleships after the *Iowa* class, let alone larger ones. The *Montana*-class battleships were obsolete before the steel was cut for them—tragic for battleship fans but proof that the Navy was heeding trends and choosing to spend resources wisely during a turbulent and stressful time. The five *Montana*-class battleships, leviathans... read more
Glock 17: The Best Combat Pistol in Existence?
*Richard Douglas* *Guns, * How has the Glock 17 managed to stay on top all these years? Keep reading to find out. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *As a pistol designed for law enforcement, it would be shocking if the Glock 17 had anything less than perfect reliability. This is an incredibly reliable and durable firearm, a tried and true handgun that requires little maintenance to remain reliable throughout its lifetime. Time and time again, Glock has proven it deserves to be the most popular and trusted manufacturer of handguns in the United States. It's simple, yet tough, d... read more
Not Aircraft Carriers: Japan Is Doubling Down on New Helicopter Carriers
*Sebastien Roblin* *Japan, Asia* But by no means call the Izumo an aircraft carrier. She, and her sister ship the Kaga, commissioned in 2017, are “helicopter destroyers.” *Here's What You Need to Remember: * Meet the Izumo—the Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force’s largest ship, displacing a gargantuan twenty-seven thousand tons. The vessel’s lengthy, flat deck measures the length of two-and-a-half football fields at 248-meters. The Izumo typically hosts seven SH-60K helicopters designed to comb the seas for hostile submarines, plus another two search-and-rescue models—though it... read more
Russia's Military Has No Big Weakness: No Stealth Bombers (Yet)
*Kris Osborn* *Russia, * Just how threatening are Russian bombers? Of course, that depends in large measure upon the size of their fleet, however, there are also some interesting additional variables to consider. Russia’s move to publish photos and weapons of three of its bombers appears to be an overt and deliberate show of massive strength, as the bombers are photographed with an entire identifiable payload laid out in front of them. Perhaps Russia is trying to show that its force is deeper, more advanced, and more lethal than a U.S. B-1B bomber and B-52. None of the three air... read more
We Can Tell You How Russia Feels About U.S. Aircraft Carriers
*Lyle J. Goldstein* *Russia, Europe* No doubt many Russian leaders still dream wistfully about gazing upon a shiny Ford-type supercarrier bearing the Russian naval ensign—the blue-cross flag of St. Andrew. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *In such a conflict, of course, NATO forces (excluding Turkey) in the Black Sea would constitute a mere “tripwire”—military parlance for a force with some political value at “phase zero,” but with little actual military significance. They would be wiped out in the first few hours of a war. Perhaps, it is fortunate, therefore, that the U.S. is... read more

Nationalism and the Ten Commandments – Patriotism or Idolatry? “Liberty” or Slavery?
Pretty much every country on earth today has a flag representing that country, and children are taught from the earliest ages, usually through public or religious education, to respect and honor that flag, often by saluting it. In the United States pretty much every school for children, whether public or private, teaches their students to "Pledge Allegiance" to the flag of the United States of America, while holding their hand over their heart. The original Pledge of Allegiance was written by a 37-year-old Baptist Christian Minister named Francis Bellamy in 1892. So why am I spen... read more

Want to Start a War with the U.S. Military? Shoot at an Aircraft Carrier
*Robert Farley* *Aircraft Carriers, Americas* An out-of-the-blue attack from a conventionally armed state actor would enjoy the highest levels of success, but would also have an impact on elite and public opinion in the United States that might drive calls for dire retribution. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Damaging or sinking a carrier could result in a much stronger U.S. commitment to the conflict, as well as a U.S. decision to escalate either vertically (by using additional weapon systems) or horizontally (by widening the geographic scope of the fight). Since the 1950s,... read more
Which Gun Is Better: The Glock 22 vs. Glock 23?
*Gun News Daily* *Firearms, United States* [image: Reuters] Lets find out. *Here's What You Need To Know: *The Glock 23 gets the nod for more practical reasons as it’s easier to conceal due to its slightly shorter barrel and grip. It can also use 15-round and even 22-round magazines, which totally negates the only real advantage the Glock 22 has to offer. The Glock 22 and Glock 23 are two of the most popular “plastic” handguns on the market. Both are very reliable handguns as both are manufactured by Glock, a company known for their products’ legendary reliability. Both are also... read more

A Little Knowledge is a Dangerous Thing, if You Think It's a Lot
Before I went to law school, I thought I knew a little something about the law. And I had every justification for thinking so. I mean, I'd finished an M.A. in philosophy, and written my thesis on principles of rule enforcement, basically a philosophy of law topic. I'd read H.L.A. Hart on the Concept Of Law, and I had a strong grasp of ethics and epistemology. So I did really have a bit of a head start on understanding what law was all about. How hard could it be? And in fact, it wasn't really that hard. I *did* have a head start, and a pretty good foundation to build on. ... read more

How Royal Marines and a Navy Submarine Teamed Up On a Secret North Korea Raid
*Sebastien Roblin* *North Korea, * The raid failed before it had even begun. But neither Perch’s crew nor the Royal Marines were ready to give up on the Korean war’s only submarine combat mission. At 7:00 pm on September 30, 1950 a submarine surfaced in the cold waters off the coast of northeastern Korea. In the moonlit darkness, dozens of armed men clad in U.S. military uniforms poured out onto the vessel’s slippery ninety-five-meter-long deck and hastily set about inflating seven rubber rafts, the last laden full of mines and explosives. Others pried open a peculiar bulbous co... read more
The U.S. Navy Is Scared that a Torpedo Could Sink an Aircraft Carrier
*Sebastien Roblin* *Aircraft Carriers, Asia* During World War II, submarine and aircraft-dropped torpedoes sank hundreds of merchant ships and warships. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Given the apparent difficulty of ensuring that submarines never enter torpedo-attack range, it made sense for the Navy to pursue a short-range “hard-kill” defense system designed to blast approaching torpedoes out of the water. In 2019, an annual report released by the Department of Testing & Evaluation revealed that a potentially revolutionary new torpedo-defense system installed on five Amer... read more

Could Hypersonic Missiles Be the Silver Bullet for Aircraft Carriers?
*Peter Suciu* *Aircraft Carriers, * Aircraft carriers have always faced seriously deadly threats. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *As the exercise suggested, the current characteristics of the U.S. Navy's carriers cannot counteract hypersonic missile weapons. While it might seem that a hit on the command room would be the best place to aim, the deck of the carrier may be the most effective. The mass – 500kg – of the Kh-47M2 "Kinzhal" traveling at Mach 12 would do considerable damage. Aircraft carriers have always faced seriously deadly threats. In the past, it was submarines,... read more

The MSRP on the SCAR is around $3,299. While there are other similar home defense rifles on the market for less, the SCAR truly offers the most in versatility, accuracy, and overall value.

© DON MACKINNON The city of Vancouver, British Columbia, is seen through a haze on a *scorching* hot day, June 29, 2021 .*gc: 'Scorching'? No. "Scorched Earth"* *...by your Governments' Design* *NewZ report from yesterday:* Another heat wave may hit southern B.C. late next week (msn.com) Good morning folks. I was walking my two dogs along the streamside trail near our Coquitlam home yesterday afternoon when I ran into a longtime acquaintance. "J" runs a daycare nearby and we have often met on the trail over the years and exchanged information. When the Hoax hit last year, she ... read more
J-16D Electronic Warfare Aircraft: China's Secret Weapon?
*Sebastien Roblin* *J-16D, Asia* The aircraft in question is a variant of the two-seat J-16 Red Eagle strike plane—itself a Chinese copy of the Russian Sukhoi Su-30MKK Flanker *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Where might China actually *confront* enemy air defenses? Of course SEAD aircraft would have application in a conflict with Taiwan or, more unlikely, Japan. However, the electronic-warfare aircraft may be most oriented at countering U.S. Navy surface warships, which bristle with SM-2, SM-6 and Sea Sparrow surface-to-air missiles for shooting down both hostile aircraft and... read more
Ask the Experts: What Is the Best Aircraft Carrier to Ever Sail?
*James Holmes* *Aircraft Carrier, World* Anyone who's tried to compare one piece of kit—ships, aircraft, weaponry of various types—to another will testify to how hard this chore is. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Having joined the Pacific Fleet in 1939, the *Yorktown*-class carrier was fortunate to be at sea on December 7, 1941, and thus to evade Nagumo's bolt from the blue. *Enterprise* went on to become the most decorated U.S. Navy ship of World War II, taking part in eighteen of twenty major engagements of the Pacific War. Anyone who's tried to compare one piece of kit—sh... read more
Britain's Armored Aircraft Carriers: A World War II Super Weapon?
*Warfare History Network* *, * The armored decks of the British Illustrious-class aircraft carriers represented a differing philosophy from that of U.S. Navy carrier designers. *Here's What You Need to Know*: While they are often overlooked in discussions of the naval war in the Pacific, the Royal Navy’s carriers were very much a part of that conflict as well as the European Theater. When one thinks of carrier warfare in World War II, the Japanese and U.S. navies usually come to mind. While the two powers were the major proponents of carrier-based aviation as the primary instrume... read more
War Over Taiwan? The U.S. Military And China Nearly Went to Blows Once
*Kyle Mizokami* *Taiwan, Asia* The crisis began in 1995. *Here's What You Need to Know*: The People’s Liberation Army, unable to do anything about the American aircraft carriers, was utterly humiliated. China, which was just beginning to show the consequences of rapid economic expansion, still did not have a military capable of posing a credible threat to American ships just a short distance from of its coastline. More than twenty years ago, a military confrontation in East Asia pushed the United States and China uncomfortably close to conflict. Largely unknown in America, the e... read more
Bad News: Europe’s Catastrophic Flooding Was Forecast Well in Advance
*Hannah Cloke* *Floods, Europe* Massive rainfall caused widespread flooding. Almost 200 people dead and many others still missing. Billions of euros’ worth of damage. Communities devastated. Thousands of homes destroyed and their occupants traumatised. I am a flood forecaster who helped to set up the forecasting system that was used to predict the recent floods in Germany and surrounding countries. I saw days in advance that they were coming. I read reports of rainfall and river levels rising. And then I watched with growing horror as the death toll surged. The European Flood ... read more
Special Forces Galore: The Air Force, Marine, And Navy's Special Units Revealed
*Sebastien Roblin* *U.S. Military, United States* These guys are the best, and you often don't hear about them. *Here's What You Need To Know:* While SOCOM will likely remain at the forefront of future counter-terrorism/insurgency operations in Africa and West Asia, the Pentagon is reorienting itself away from such missions towards preparing for possible ‘great power’ conflict with Russia and China. Special operations forces have been at the forefront of U.S. combat operation in the last two decades. They are nearly at the forefront of risky combat missions—and suffer higher casu... read more
