With COVID-19 Emergency Period Over Why are Pharmaceutical Companies Still Given a Liability Waiver?
Many people have asked: how is the best way to stop the insanity behind the incessant vaccine narrative? The likely best approach is to start demanding the pharmaceutical companies have their liability waivers removed. If the vaccine is safe and effective, why would the U.S. government still need to provide liability waivers from adverse vaccine […] The post With COVID-19 Emergency Period Over Why are Pharmaceutical Companies Still Given a Liability Waiver? appeared first on The Last Refuge. read more

Forget the Iranian Army: The Real Threat Is Tehran's Revolutionary Guards
*Kyle Mizokami* *IRGC, Middle East* The Quds Force has mastered unconventional warfare. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The Quds Force typically operates alongside nonstate actors such as Hezbollah, providing training, weapons and support. One of the most powerful and influential countries in the Middle East is undoubtedly Iran. The Islamic Republic of Iran sits astride several key strategic—and often volatile—regions, including the Persian Gulf, Central Asia, the Indian Ocean and the Caucasus. Iran is primarily a land power, and has invaded and suffered invasion from other ... read more

The nature of Chicom aggression toward Taiwan
* The Spectator:* *Is China about to invade Taiwan?* *For the time being, China’s strategy seems to be to break Taiwan’s will to fight, rather than outright conquest* China's current activity looks like a probe of Taiwan's defenses and an attempt to lull the Taiwanese into complacency. While China has significant air power and a large navy, it has not demonstrated a capacity for amphibious operations so far. read more
A More Resilient U.S. Navy Is Key to Combat Operations
*James Holmes* *US Navy, World* We might call it “the ability to close narrow seas and skies to hostile vessels and aircraft.” *Here's What You Need to Remember: * Shoring up logistical shortfalls, widening the leadership’s strategic gaze to encompass highly mundane capabilities and hardware, and otherwise engaging in self-scrutiny will help the sea services make themselves resilient. With apologies to Nassim Nicholas Taleb: never underestimate the impact—and value—of the highly mundane.

Biden's climate boondoggle hits US middle class
A.J. Kaufman: The COP26 climate summit — held without the worst offenders — is finally over. And at the end of two long weeks, some of the plans reward elites. A conglomeration of nearly 500 financial firms pledged to fund $130 trillion toward the transition to “net-zero“ emissions during the conference. The massive pledge is over 135% of the world’s gross domestic product for this year, the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday. But it hurts middle-class communities and Americans already struggling with inflation and surging gas prices. The demand for renewable energy has grow... read more

The U.S. Military Almost Didn't Recover from the Loss of These 5 Weapons
*Robert Farley* *U.S. Military, Americas* The Ah-56 Cheyenne, B-70 Valkyrie, A-12 Avenger, Future Combat Systems, & Sea Control Ships *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *Technology undoubtedly matters, but only rarely in the sense that an isolated technological achievement lends decisive advantage in tactical engagements. Rather, technological innovations and choices shape the ways in which military organizations, and the broader defense-industrial complex, approach the prospect of war. Weapons die for all kinds of different reasons. Sometimes they happen at the wrong time, eit... read more
Would You Put Nukes on a Tank? Even the Russians Said No
*Charlie Gao* *Tactical Nukes, Russia, Europe, soviet union* The Taran project was killed in the 1970s *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Combining these characteristics, the Taran project was to create a missile tank that could launch large tactical nukes, then follow up in the attack by firing Anti-Tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs). The tank was to be based on the T-64 chassis. The turret was to be completely new and feature a rocket-gun (similar to those mounted on the German Sturmtiger). In the 1950s and 1960s when tactical nuclear weapons were expected to rule the battlefield, ... read more
Wanted: A Stealth Fighter for India's Air Force
*Mark Episkopos* *Indian Air Force, India* India's Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft is expected to be a fifth-generation fighter with some sixth-generation characteristics. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The AMCA seems more similar to Lockheed Martin’s F-35 jet than to Russia’s Su-57 jet or China’s J-20 jet, in that it’s designed as a role-flexible fighter capable of executing a wide range of missions depending on loadout. The AMCA appears to be a complement rather than a replacement, for the IAF’s air superiority fighters, serving as a flexible force multiplier with superior... read more

Biden seems indifferent to Iran's war against the US and its allies
Sean Durns: In less than a month, the Islamic Republic of Iran and its proxies have greatly accelerated their global terror campaign against the United States and its allies. Iran's attacks and plotting prove the regime’s imperial ambitions. U.S. policy, however, has yet to catch up. On Wednesday, Iranian-backed forces the Houthis stormed the U.S. Embassy in Sanaa, Yemen. According to the Middle East Media Research Institute, the Houthis looted "large quantities of equipment and material." The raid, MEMRI noted, "comes after the Houthis kidnapped three Yemeni nationals affiliate... read more
What’s the Point of Cancellation (Halloween Edition)?
[image: undefined] I’m holding an old Polaroid, taken at a Halloween party at one of my early State Department assignments in the 1980s. One of my diplomatic colleagues is in blackface, done up to look like the minstrel player who was on the “Darkie” toothpaste boxes then for sale in every drugstore in Asia. You can see a photo of the packaging; the white teeth against the minstrel player’s face were supposed to show how good the toothpaste was.

Constructing the Dodecahedron Easily from the Cube, as Ancient Geometers Knew
"The dodecahedron was, to these ancient mathematicians, the most mysterious of the solids; it was by far the most difficult to construct, the accurate drawing of the regular pentagon necessitating a rather elaborate application of Pythagoras' great theorem. Hence the conclusion, as Plato put it, that 'this (the regular dodecahedron) the Deity employed in tracing the plan of the Universe.' (H. Stanley Redgrove, in Bygone Beliefs.)" from "The Life and Philosophy of Pythagoras", in "The Secret Teachings of All Ages" by Manly P. Hall Yet Johannes Kepler (in "The Epitome of Copernican Ast... read more

“She Said She Saw the Portal to Hell:” 11-Year-Old Spends Months in the Hospital After Taking Popular Flu Drug Linked To Suicides, Hallucinations and More…
“Do you want to take the chances?” — asked a parent of an 11-year-old girl who went through violent hallucinations, and an inability to eat and talk, or move, only a few days after taking a much-hyped antiviral medication. She had to spend three months in a hospital in order to recover from this drug’s extreme side effects. Charles Ellis spoke about his daughter Lindsay’s horrible experience with Tamiflu in February 2018, during which she reportedly became convinced that she was hearing the voice of the Devil after being strung out from side effects of the popular anti-flu medicat... read more
Had France Not Surrendered, World War II Would Have Gone Differently
*Robert Farley* *World War II, Europe* The eventual course of World War II put an especially bad light on the decision of the French military and political hierarchy to cease resistance against Germany. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *Even without foreknowledge of the German disaster in Russia, however, the French had meaningful means to resist Germany, and to continue to put pressure on the Nazi regime. The refusal of the bulk of the French government to continue the war, if under disadvantageous circumstance, undoubtedly extended the suffering of the European continent. F... read more
The U.S. Navy Doesn't Need to Fret Too Much About Iran

Iran has invested considerable resources in its ballistic missile forces over the past forty years, for the same reason China and North Korea did: military aviation is an expensive proposition, and developing and maintaining an air force to rival the United States is very ... read more
