Let the right standard of the Universal Christ be raised up within you, within this community
Eternal Father, I AM come in this hour to deliver the Woman and her seed. Eternal Father, I AM Michael Archangel, crowned by Thy holy hand, now endowed with Thy vigil of sacred fire.

Heavenly Father, receive these legions of angels who accompany me in this h... read more
Russia Looks to Su-57 Fighter as Its Next Hypersonic Killer
*Peter Suciu* *Hypersonic Weapons, Eurasia* Russia's Su-57 is already supersonic. Hypersonic missiles could add an extra level of speed and lethality. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *While it is unclear when the tests of the hypersonic missiles will occur, or how many Su-57s will be utilized in the tests, it could be seen as a major step forward for the Russian Air Force in its deployment of the advanced weapons. Late last year, Russia announced that the first batch-produced Sukhoi Su-57 fighters will be used in hypersonic air-launched weapons trials at Russia's flight test... read more

Play our songs.
1) On this scene of Babylonian confusion—reminiscent of the “last days”—men now see the coming of the eternal Christ Presence as the only power on earth capable of providing a permanent solution. This too is God’s mercy—a manifest talisman in the living Christ who cares enough to watch over the civilization which God so nobly created, and subsequently so lovingly entrusted to His own children as the legacy of Life and the inheritance of the elect. Last week Mother Mary—whose blessed heart should mean so much to all people—spoke on mercy. As the Goddess of Mercy I here give a... read more

When the U.S. Navy Means Business, It Sends Out Its Seawolf Submarine
*Caleb Larson* *U.S. Military, Global* Not much is known about the Seawolves themselves, as the United States prefers to keep the particulars of the craft a secret. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* The Seawolves are not large, but fill an important role as some of the United States’ deadliest submarines. As previously covered, the USS *Seawolf* recently made a stop off the coast of Tromsø, Norway to pick up personnel. The stop was significant due to Tromsø’s proximity to Russian waters, which was timed to coincide with a joint American-Norwegian bomber and fighter flyover of t... read more
From Opportunity to Disruption: What Is Next for Latin America?
*Eric Farnsworth* *Latin America, Americas* The Western Hemisphere has emerged at the forefront of the accelerating global competition between governance systems, and Latin America’s future direction is now open for discussion in a way not seen since the last inflection point toward the end of the Cold War. PRESIDENT JOE Biden’s virtual summit of democracies in December 2021 was a timely initiative highlighting the intensifying battle for the future of global governance while seeking ways to build and promote democratic practice worldwide.

Will Europe Meet the Ukraine Test?
*Stefano Graziosi, James Jay Carafano* *Ukraine, Europe* Europe must cease its dithering and give Vladimir Putin what he fears, not what he wants. The aspiration of a “Europe whole, free and at peace” is being put to the test in Ukraine. And right now, the Europeans seem far from earning a passing grade. Vladimir Putin has long used Russian-seized territory in Ukraine, Georgia, and Moldova as launching pads to destabilize European solidarity and threaten the security of neighboring states, NATO, and the European Union. In the past few weeks, Putin has upped the pressure, threa... read more
The Myth of Regulating Finance
*Milton Ezrati* *Finance, United States* There is no reasonable mechanism that can guard against the boom and bust cycle, and certainly not those Washington put in place after the last crisis. Regulation is simply inadequate to the task. TODAY’S FINANCIAL markets will inevitably suffer another crash. It might come soon, especially if recent inflation proves to have more staying power than the authorities suggest. But even if markets escape trouble in the immediate future, wild swings are an unavoidable feature of financial markets. Nor can any reasonable regulation guard against ... read more
Syria’s Bashar al-Assad Is Here to Stay
*Adam Lammon* *Syrian Civil War, Middle East* A new U.S. policy that sees Syria readmitted into the regional fold is not intended to “reward” Bashar al-Assad for his barbarous behavior over the last decade, but for the United States to pick winners and losers in the Middle East. THOUGH HE is not the first American to question the U.S. presence in Afghanistan, President Joe Biden’s rationale for leaving reveals a broader problem with how Washington is fighting its Middle Eastern wars. Much as George W. Bush’s Afghan war evolved from a campaign of revenge and counterterrorism into... read more
The Army Looks to THOR to Shoot Drones from the Sky
*Peter Suciu* *Drones, Americas* Now the U.S. Army is calling in the god-like powers, not of Norse God of Thunder Thor, but rather THOR—the Tactical High Power Operational Responder. *Here's What You Need to Remember*: The Army's THOR program has taken on the challenge to design, build and test an effective counter-unmanned aircraft system that could engage many targets at once, and at long distances. High-powered microwave technology has been seen as a potential solution. You don’t need to be a Marvel superheroes fan to know that Thor is the god of thunder. Now the U.S. Army i... read more

Others advance strategic purposes in their own right. *Here's What You Need to Know*: 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 resi... read more
Russia's New SU-57 Stealth Fighter Receives Interest from Foreign Buyers
*Peter Suciu* *Russia's Su-57, Eurasia* Several countries are interested in buying Russia's new SU-57 stealth fighter. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Potential foreign buyers include Algeria and India, but also notably Turkey, which could adopt the plane given that it was expelled by the United States from the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter program for its purchase of the Russian-built S-400 anti-aircraft defense system.

Mining 62, Open pit mining should continue and expand
I still believe that the mining industry is among the Philippines' biggest economic potentials. Just a small share of the total land area to be mined vertically downwards, create lots of jobs, earn lots of export revenues, government getting lots of taxes. The deep hole mined-out areas should be filled up and reforested under the existing mining law, but I believe it should be left as deep wide man-made lake.

Taiwan's New F-16 Fighters Will Be Helpless Against Chinese Missiles
*David Axe* *F-16 Fighter, Taiwan* Fighters arguably are the least important system for Taiwan's new strategy, although they could play an important role firing anti-ship missiles at Chinese invasion ships. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *To counter China’s roughly 1,500 fighters, Taipei possesses around 400 fighters of its own including aging F-5s and Mirage 2000s, locally-made F-CK-1s and the survivors of 150 F-16As and Bs that the island country bought from the United States in 1992.

Ultimately, two prototypes of the laser-armed 1К17 Сжатие, translated to “Compression,” were built, though they weren’t complete until the Soviet Union fell and was replac... read more

Why Germany Failed to Beat the Soviet Union
*Robert Farley* *World War II, Eurasia* Knocking the USSR out of the war in the same way Germany had knocked France out of the war was almost impossible given geographic reality. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *Germany’s fatal error was a misunderstanding of the strength of the Soviet state, as well as the increasing quality of Soviet military equipment. Even by the standards of World War II, the Eastern Front stands out as a cauldron of horror. Over four years of war, millions of soldiers and civilians died as Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union pummeled each other relentle... read more

How the West Counters China in 2022
*Samuel Teixeira, Sam Lewis* *China, Asia* How can the West counter China's bullying in small countries? President Biden’s announcement of the Build Back Better World is a welcome start, but more needs to be done to wrest back influence in South America and Africa. When a nation withdraws its entire embassy and diplomatic staff, it’s indicative of a serious international conflict. Besides a declaration of war or a dramatic regime change like the Taliban coming to power in Afghanistan, countries don’t usually feel the need to press the metaphorical nuclear button of bilateral rela... read more
What I Got Wrong About Julian Assange
"I wrote a piece for Australian online publisher Crikey just before Julian Assange’s extradition hearings resumed in September 2020 in which I regurgitated a slur that has done enormous harm to his reputation. Australian journalists should stop using the WikiLeaks treasure trove in their stories if they wouldn’t speak up for Assange, I’d written. Journalists like to think they’d go to jail to protect a source. Well, their source was suffering in London’s high-security Belmarsh prison, I said. The problem was I also wrote that Assange dumped the Iraq and Afghan war logs on the inte... read more
Cryptocurrencies: A View From The Left
The use of cryptocurrencies is rapidly increasing across the world. In 2020, scholars at the University of Cambridge estimated there were 101 million people using cryptocurrencies worldwide, an increase from 35 million just two years previously. The rise of cryptocurrency is usually a story of pizzas bought with bitcoins now worth over a billion dollars, kingpins of darknet drugs markets ordering assassinations and hospitals being held to ransom by anonymous hackers. These new levels of activity however are pushing cryptocurrency, and its underlying blockchain technology into the ... read more
Revolution In An Age Of Resurgent Fascism
The late sociologist Erik Olin Wright used the phrase “ruptural transformation” as stand-in for revolution, inaccurately summarizing this as “Smash first, build second.” His immensely popular and useful work also unfortunately erased historical European anti-fascist strategy whose approach to revolution differed from the caricature he presented. To move beyond Wright’s important, yet misleading framework, one can even turn to DSA-founder Michael Harrington’s last book, Socialism: Past and Future. Published in 1989, Harrington expanded upon his own earlier critique of the German s... read more
Plans For Mass Shipments Of Radioactive Waste Quietly Disclosed
How far is your house or apartment from a major highway, or railroad line? Do you want to play Russian roulette with radioactive waste in transit for 40 years? Last month US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff quietly reported preparing for tens of thousands of cross-country shipments of high-level radioactive waste from nuclear reactors to the desert Southwest. The oft-disparaged US infrastructure of decrepit of roads, faulty bridges, rickety rails, and rusty barges may not be ready for such an onrush of immensely heavy rad waste casks.

Water Protectors Lead A Movement To Close Navy Fuel Site After Leak
Upwards of 100 water protectors rallied outside the Hawaii State Capitol in Honolulu on Dec. 10. Their greatest fears had just come true.

To Descend Into Totalitarianism or to Rise up and Free Ourselves?
We in Western societies naively imagine we would never descend into Totalitarianism, because such systems are unmistakably evil and we are undeniably good. Not only would we immediately recognise it, but our moral goodness and inestimable courage would see to it that we stopped it before it ever took root. In reality, however, such systems never arise vowing to deliver evil, but always promising to do good. The Bolsheviks were apparently redressing the plight of the workers against their bourgeois oppressors. The National Socialists were of course restoring the pride of Germany afte... read more
