One War at a Time

There’s no need for America to fight major wars on two fronts.

There are very serious people, like Thomas Mahnken of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, who are suggesting that the United States may soon be engaged in a world war in Europe over Ukraine and the Far East over Taiwan. Mahnken in an article in Foreign Affairs suggests that American policymakers should start studying the Allied victory in the Second World War, especially the mobilization of industry, science, and technology, as well as the “sequencing” strategy that prioritized the war in Europe over the war in the Pacific.

Strong majority of Americans see elements of Trans agenda as child abuse

Well known Canadian cross dresser

A new poll conducted by Scott Rasmussen for America’s New Majority Project indicates yet another area where progressive activists in the United States and the Democrats who seek to support that agenda through legislative means are seriously misreading the room. The survey collected responses from voters on the subject of transgender (“gender-affirming”) medical treatments of various sorts for minors and parental rights in that regard. Not only were large majorities strongly opposed to most of these procedures, but most felt that these “treatments” amounted to child abuse.

Count Dracula: Undead Bloodsucker or Anti-Jihad Hero?

Did you know that the archfiend best representing the Halloween season—namely, Count Dracula—is fake news?

I don’t mean that he’s fake in the sense that he’s fictional—which, of course, he is—but rather that his entire genesis is grounded in a pattern we now recognize and see on a daily basis: leftist propagandistic forces working to transform heroes into villains.

US Supreme Court to weigh end to race-based college admissions

The US Supreme Court is set to hear two cases that could dramatically alter the extent to which universities can consider an applicant’s race during the admissions process.

The eventual ruling could end decades-old affirmative action policies and significantly affect how universities manage admissions.

Arguments in both cases began at the Supreme Court on Monday.

Affirmative action is among the most contentious issues in US education.

UK: Don’t sleep around, servicewomen told

Women in the armed forces have been threatened with disciplinary action and told to stop “sleeping around” after they reported sexual abuse, The Times has been told.

The claims emerged as new analysis showed that only one in ten rape cases brought to MoD trial results in a conviction. Campaigners want an overhaul of the military justice system after a Times investigation found the conviction rate for rape cases heard at court martial was only a seventh of that in the civilian courts.

Actress Elizabeth Banks on NPR: Abortion Is ‘Our Society’s Insurance Policy’ for Easy Sex

For your daily laugh that NPR calls their evening newscast All Things Considered, on Saturday night they celebrated the new pro-abortion movie Call Jane with actress Elizabeth Banks. Over eight and a half minutes, NPR host Michel Martin had no difficult or challenging questions, just facilitations.

Martin asked “How did this project come about and what attracted you to it?” And: “Do you have somebody in mind that you hope will see this film? And what are you hoping people will take away from it?”

Gypsy Taub Speaks! Pelosi Attacker’s Former ‘Life Partner’ Definitively Torpedoes the Media Narrative

Once again, the lie goes twice around the world before the truth finishes tying its shoes. Reuters reported the lie on Saturday: “The intruder at the Pelosis’ home yelled ‘Where’s Nancy?’ before assaulting Paul Pelosi with a hammer, according to a person briefed on the incident. An internet user with the same name as the man arrested at the scene, David Depape, expressed support for former President Donald Trump and embraced the cult-like conspiracy theory QAnon in online posts that referenced ‘satanic paedophilia.’”

Palestinians: Why Are Attacks on Christians Being Ignored?

A series of violent incidents in Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus, and the nearby towns of Beit Jala and Beit Sahour, have left Christians worried about their safety and future under the Palestinian Authority (PA).

Many Christians living in these communities are complaining that the Palestinian Authority is not doing enough to punish those who attack churches and Christian-owned businesses. The perpetrators are Muslims who make up the majority of the population in the Bethlehem area.

Earlier this year, Palestinian Evangelical Pastor Johnny Shahwan was arrested by the PA security forces on charges of “promoting normalization” with Israel.
