Deja vu! Once again those Russians have come through to plant disinformation during a US presidential campaign! This time they are accused of being involved with Biden's son Hunter's laptop. Rep. Adam Schiff claims he's as sure about Russian activity this time as he was sure of Trump collusion with Russia last time. How did that one work out? Also today, White House top Covid advisor Dr. Scott Atlas has his Tweets yanked - more politicization of science? And...the California governor does not want you to sing.

*Markus V. Garlauskas* *North Korea, Asia* From the author: First and foremost, it matters—along with the panoply of other missiles displayed in the parade—because it shows the progress North Korea continues to make on strategic weapons despite the effects of sanctions and Kim’s continuing restraint in ICBM flight testing. The large ICBM featured as the grand finale of North Korea’s military parade to mark the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Korean Workers Party has been a source of controversy and speculation from missile experts and amateurs alike from the moment it app...

*Samo Burja* *economy, Asia* [image: Wikimedia Commons] More than at any point in contemporary history, China sees itself as a strong power. Now aware of China’s monumental presence on the world stage, Western elites can take a leaf from Deng Xiaoping and relearn how to exploit trade policy. A SEA change in Western perception of China has occurred in the last ten years. It’s no longer just the quiet workhorse of the world economy. Instead, China is now recognized as the primary global competitor to the United States and its allies. As nato Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg rece...

I've previously made note of the problems with media coverage of Saskatchewan's provincial election, including its consistently echoing and amplifying false Saskatchewan Party talking points about budgeting. But let's take a closer look at what the parties have promised on their face - and how irresponsible the Saskatchewan Party's position actually is. To start with, anybody who bothers to read the NDP's platform (PDF) rather than assuming that Saskatchewan Party propaganda must be taken at face value will find this (emphasis added): We’re concerned about the provincial deficit,...

When Scott Moe first heard about the coronavirus, he smelled opportunity. And that can take many forms. No, Moe didn't call the spring election that he initially planned. But he did take the opportunity to prevent Elections Saskatchewan from pursuing a modernized voting process or a full mail-in balloting system for the election date set for this fall. And here's part of the fallout from that opportunism: In-person advance and election day polls cannot be held safely within Peter Ballantyne First Nation communities due to a COVID-19 outbreak, says Elections Saskatchewan. ...

Inspired by a few recent posts, several friends have asked me if I’ve finally “woken up” to the great political threat of wokism.

*Daniel L. Davis* *National Security, * [image: Reuters] Whether Americans give Donald Trump a second term in next month’s election or Joe Biden comes out on top, the trend in America is clearly moving towards a more realistic foreign policy that prioritizes diplomacy above the militancy that has given rise to the forever wars around the world. At a parade commemorating the seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of North Korea’s ruling party, dictator Kim Jong-un unveiled a massive new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). If genuine, it would be one of the largest mobil...

From the Children’s Health Defense: By Pam Long The Article: In Part 1 of this series, we explored data related to the apparent risks associated with the suicide rate of military personnel with the realization that it’s not only trauma from combat that contributes to risk, but also the pharmaceutical load on soldiers and specific problematic medications.

Recent officer-involved shootings and public allegations of police misconduct have sparked legal discussion around accountability for law enforcement.

Human Rights Watch this week released an eighty-eight-page report called “‘Worth Less Than an Animal’: Abuses and Due Process Violations in Pretrial Detention in North Korea.” The report looks at what it describes as the repressive pretrial detention conditions in that country. It reports crimes that include torture, rape and an overall lack of due process for detainees. The pretrial detention syste...

*Peter Suciu* *South China Sea, Asia* Washington has taken a hard line on China’s expansion in the South China Sea, and in July denounced Beijing’s “illegal” claims, and backed a 2016 international tribunal that ruled that most of the claims have no legal basis. For its part, Beijing has vowed to ignore the verdict. The sailors and aviators serving in the *Ronald Reagan Carrier Strike Group* (CSG-5) returned to familiar waters last week when it entered the waters of the South China Sea for the third time during its 2020 deployment. The carrier strike group includes the U.S. Navy...

*Peter Suciu* *History, Europe* [image: Reuters] The irony is that these caps, while made at least currently of the fur of Canadian brown bears, are actually of a French origin of sorts. Many forms of military headdress and headgear can be described as iconic and even definitive. But even to those who couldn’t identify most helmets, hats or caps, there is one piece of headgear that is almost universally known – it is the bearskin caps of the soldiers who guard the queen. That might be putting it in extremely simplistic terms, but it is true that it is actually hard to imagine th...

*Bradley Bowman, Maj. Shane “Axl” Praiswater* *NATO, Asia* Turkey’s live-fire test follows unconfirmed reports that Turkey had used the S-400’s radar to track a Greek F-16. Turkey reportedly conducted an expected live-fire test on Friday of its Russian S-400 surface-to-air missile system. The test represents a troubling milestone in the steady deterioration of Ankara’s relationship with Washington and NATO – potentially increasing the chances that Washington will impose sanctions on Turkey under the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act.

Two years after America and its allies defeated Nazi Germany in World War II, a diplomat stationed in Moscow named George Kennan wrote a massive 5,363-word telegram to State Department headquarters outlining the threat that the Soviet Union posed to the Free World. It was a time when the Cold War was beginn...

*Stephen Silver* *Ebola, Asia* Don’t believe Pyongyang’s propaganda. For as long as there have been pandemics and other outbreaks of disease, there have been some seeking to blame that disease on enemy governments. This has happened with coronavirus, with various parties in the United States claiming that the virus that caused this year’s pandemic was intentionally created in a lab in China. Some Chinese officials, in turn, have floated the theory that the virus was in fact created by the U.S. Army. There is, perhaps needless to say, scant evidence for the veracity of either theo...

*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Coronavirus, World* [image: Reuters] You might be a bit safer if your blood type is type O. A pair of new studies published in the journal Blood Advances is suggesting that individuals with a certain blood type may be less likely to contract the novel coronavirus and fall severely ill if they do get infected. In the first study, researchers examined more than 470,000 people in Demark who were tested for the coronavirus and compared them with the general population of roughly 2.2 million. About 7,400 tests came back positive. What the researchers discovered was...

Assorted content to start your week. - Agustin Carstens discusses the need for our recovery from the coronavirus pandemic to include meaningful planning for the economy to come, not only an attempt to shovel money at existing businesses regardless of their future prospects. And Chris Giles writes that this may be the week the austerity was officially dead and buried - though of course Saskatchewan may need to send that message to Scott Moe. - Meanwhile, Jeremy Appel discusses Jason Kenney's all-out assault on Alberta's working class in an effort to ensure that whatever comes next...

IBM Watson does polls--including health and in 2018 surveyed Americans on "anger." I heard Al Kresta (radio talk show, Ave Maria, MI, Oct. 14) discussing this, but can't find the details at the poll website, so I'll quote him. And I assumed he used newer material not available to non-subscribers. Also, I couldn't find the wording of the questions, which makes a huge difference in my opinion. Kresta said, Americans are angrier than ever. In the 2008 election 43% of Democrats were angry about McCain; and 46% of Republicans were angry about Obama; in 2012 56% of Democrats were angry ...

*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, Europe* The Soviet Union placed a premium on science, technology and industrial production. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *A series of modifications—including making it capable of fighting on the nuclear battlefield—resulted in the T-55 designation. The T-54/55 series was the mainstay of the Soviet Army from the end of World War II until the introduction of its descendant, the T-62. Indeed, in addition to the T-62, the newer T-64, T-72, T-80 and T-90 tanks are direct descendants of the T-55. The Soviet Union was one of the most powerful collection...

*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, * As for the Pueblo itself, technically the second oldest ship still commissioned in the U.S. Navy, it remains in North Korean custody to this day. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Although Pyongyang profited from playing one patron against the other, its attack on the Pueblo was probably primarily motivated by the failure of its assassination plot in South Korea. Anticipating possible attacks from South Korea or the United, it may have seen taking the *Pueblo* as a preemptive move in an imminent conflict, or as a means to gain leverage over Wash...

*Richard Briffault* *Politics, * The surge in campaign spending is striking. But research on campaign finance regulation suggests the volume of election spending is not the main problem with the U.S. campaign finance system. Total spending in the 2020 federal elections is projected to set a new record of almost US$11 billion by November. When adjusted for inflation, that’s over 50% higher than 2016 election spending. This year’s federal election spending – for the presidency, the Senate and the House of Representatives – is on track to be double what it was in 2008. The surge i...

*Matthew Feeney* *Politics, Americas* So‐​called “Big Tech” and content moderation will continue to make headlines next year regardless of who wins the presidential election next month. Earlier this week, the* New York Post* published articles containing information about alleged emails between Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, and employees at Chinese and Ukrainian energy firms. Twitter and Facebook both took steps to limit the spread of the articles, prompting accusations of “election interference.” Prominent Republican lawmakers took to soci...

*Caleb Larson* *B-52, * Engines, radars, bomb bay capacity, and communications systems — B-52s are getting completely gutted in order to keep them relevant for decades to come. The United States’ iconic B-52 bomber, the old Cold War workhorse that remains in service, is getting a new lease on life. According to a recent article featured in the *Air Force Magazine*, the 60-year-old airframes will undergo extensive modifications to keep them flying for at least 30 more years. If realized, America’s B-52s will have been flying for 90+ years, an incredible feat for any airplane, but...

Among the casualties of the battle was an artillery forward observer from the U.S. 57th F...

Across the United States, millions of workers of all ages suffered job losses in the coronavirus-driven recession, but the economic impact on young workers has been even more intense. Not only have many young people in this country faced the harsh reality of returning to school without in-person classes at their colleges and high schools, the job prospects for those seeking employment have been particularly bleak. Historically, young people are disproportionately disadvantaged in many ways during economic downturns, but this recession has been particularly acute given the sectors ...

*Just Security* has this post by the Editor on lawful and unlawful orders. Excerpt: Hypotheticals worth pondering include whether General Milley could have been prosecuted had he refused to walk with President Trump to the church door, or whether an order to paint over “Black Lives Matter” on a city street would have been legal, if the president asserted that these actions served the military purpose of force protection, including protection of the commander-in-chief at or near the White House. Recently, the Marine Band was required to play at what certainly seemed to be a campaign...

The celebration of the 15th anniversary of the formation of AbM was held at the eKhenana Occupation in Cato Manor, Durban. This occupation has an office, a farm, a recreation center and a political school, which is called The Frantz Fanon Political School. The first seeds for the farm were received from the MST (Landless Wor...

The elderly have comprised the vast majority of Covid-19 fatalities in Sweden, either dying in care homes or their own residence, often alone. By mid-May 2020, only 13 percent of the care home victims had received treatment at Swedish hospitals. In August 2020, only five percent of the Covid-19 patients admitted for treatment at Swedish hospitals came from care home facilities. Sweden has by far the highest proportion of deaths among confirmed Corona cases in the Nordic countries. Let’s look into the possible reasons.

The presocratic philosopher Parmenides, who is regarded as the founder of western metaphysics, believed that all material things, and their changing forms and motions, are a reflection of the same eternal reality, the “Being”—he proposed the monistic principle “all is one”. In his *Physics*, Aristotle rejects Parmanedian monism by noting that a thinker who denies the multiplicity of things, and all the changing forms and motions, is not engaging in natural philosophy. In the thirteenth century, Aquinas assumed that, with Aristotle’s assistance, he could appropriate the “all is one”...

* Donald Trump is the only world leader fighting ‘climate totalitarianism’* Only those who believe in the “new religion of climate change” will have any place in the new world if Joe Biden is elected president, according to Sky News host Rowan Dean. He said anyone even dare debate the "fundamentalist dogma" of climate change will risk branding themselves a heretic. Mr Dean pointed to the ‘Great Reset’ a “quasi-fascist version of the Green New Deal” which is supported by the IMF, the World Economic Forum, and the UN and aims to “by their own admission” use the tools of COVID suppre...

Halifax, Nova Scotia - About a thousand people gathered in Grand Parade on Sunday, singing, drumming and voicing their support for Indigenous harvesters on Nova Scotia’s southwestern shore, who are exercising their right to fish — outside the commercial season.
