Tensions between Indigenous and non-Indigenous fishermen in the bay had erupted in several dangerous boat-ramming incidents. […] read more

The Seven Pillars of CapitalismThe notion that capitalism is based on the ideas of John Locke and Adam Smith, that it leads to free markets and liberty, and that it is a humane system is a myth. From my study of the history of the Europeans in the last 500 years, I have reached the conclusion that the seven pillars of capitalism are: free land, free resources, slavery, a proselytizing religion, an armed population convinced of the supremacy of their race, a political establishment hell-bent on expanding its control over other people, and a military led by ruthless warlords and generals. The road to the Western c... read more

Are Large Surface Combatants the Way Forward for the U.S. Navy?*Dan Goure* *U.S. Navy, * In an era when the Navy is looking to create a distributed force of sensors and shooters, relying increasingly on unmanned platforms and aerial drones, does it make sense to invest scarce resources in a relatively small number of large surface targets? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *For the cost of an LSC, the Navy can buy both a DDG-51 Flight III and a Future Frigate. If the desire is still to get to a fleet of 355 ships, this would seem to be a better path. The U.S. Navy wants to acquire a new large surface combatant (LSC). The question is why? O... read more

China's Aircraft Carriers Have One Big Problem*TNI Staff* *Aircraft Carriers, Asia* The United States should hope it stays this way. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The impetus for doing away with the J-15 stems from a series of four serious accidents suffered by the type. China is developing a new carrier-based fighter aircraft to succeed the Shenyang J-15 Flying Shark.

The navalized Chinese Flanker derivative has suff... read more

The Future of Warfare is Dependent on Hypersonic Weapons*Dan Goure* *Hypersonic Missiles, Americas* The future has arrived. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *In an era of hypersonic weapons, defenses will take on increased importance. A 2016 study by the National Academy of Sciences called for a sustained R&D effort to develop the necessary sensors, weapons, and battle management capabilities to defend against hypersonic weapons. Defense officials see the need for a new array of low orbiting space-based sensors to detect and track hypersonic weapons along with long-range hypersonic interceptors or directed energy weapons. A new te... read more

Untitled* Weather disaster-related deaths are down — but warming could undo that trend* * What a laugh! Greenies are always pretending that warming is bad for you. Now they admit that the warming so far has not been. But it still COULD be, they say. Aerial pigs could happen too* Vastly better response times to natural disasters have reduced deaths, but ever-worse weather events might undermine that progress. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) published a report in August containing some rare good news about extreme weather: Despite a sharp increase in the number of weather- and ... read more
