Has America Already Lost the South China Sea to Beijing?
*James Holmes* *South China Sea, Asia* Beijing, for instance, has proclaimed repeatedly, loudly and stridently that it commands “indisputable sovereignty” within a nine-dash line enclosing some 80–90 percent of the South China Sea. *Here's What You Need to Know*: To uphold freedom of the sea, U.S. Navy and friendly ships and planes should exercise every prerogative to which they’re entitled by the law of the sea, in every square inch of airspace and waterspace where they’re entitled to exercise it.

Brazil Is a Big Country, Does It Need a Big Navy?
*James Holmes* *Brazil, Americas* The Americas’ external protector started withdrawing. American republics had to provide for their own defense, or go undefended. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Brazil’s navy craves ships normally meant for conventional naval warfare—but it craves them for eccentric reasons. In one sense the Marinha resembles the U.S. Navy after World War I, which is when imperial Germany had been vanquished but no competitor had yet taken its place as the focal point of U.S. naval strategy. “We have no concept of war,” confides a strategy professor at the Escola... read more

Big pharma-Bill Gates 2020 deal on vax
11-12-15 Gene drive is a molecular technique that slips a new gene into an organism and guarantees that it will be inherited by offspring and by subsequent generations. That’s possible because gene drive not only introduces a new gene but destroys competitors of that gene. Result: even if the genetically engineered organism mates with a partner carrying a different version of the gene, all of their descendants will carry the engineered gene and express the associated trait….
