Dad was a LTJG Navy veteran, long-standing member of the Glow-In-The-Dark Society for his participation in Operation Ivy. He passed away a few years ago. He had a membership with USNI (United States Naval Institute) and I prepaid on his behalf, mainly for it’s monthly publication entitled PROCEEDINGS that Dad enjoyed receiving, even though it was apparent that he couldn’t read it in his later years.
PROCEEDINGS is a tough ride for anyone not familiar with military acronyms and jargon, but some of it is fascinating. The articles are unclassified, so if you want to find out what’s really going on, you need to realize that we’re years beyond what is allowed to be published. Some of the uncensored OpEds are excellent.
Because my deceased father’s account is still active, being prepaid and all, I get notifications from USNI of upcoming highlights via email, like this one:
This is an unusual image posted by USNI and it doesn’t have a lot to do with the essay by Dr. Linton Wells, PhD, entitled “Prepared for the Battle But Not for the War.” Or maybe it does. What bothers me is the image posted by USNI is not of U.S. Soldiers. An image search results in this:
“Rigonce, Slovania: Migrants mainly Syrians arriving from Croatia are escorted by Slovanian police.“
http://www.marcovacca.com/features/295/the–balkan-route-towards–eu
Okay. But when you download the image you get an entirely different .jpg title: “REF Hungary-Serbia.”
So, according to USNI, the countries involved are probably Croatia, Hungary, Serbia, Syria and Slovania, but not the United States.
What ever happened to the concept of honesty?

mass movements of refugees orchestrated by your betters is part of asymmetric warfare.
marx will tell you that you must destroy societal norms and weaken the middle class (destroy the economy) in order to have a revolution. the writer does not identify the elitists who are at war with their own fellow citizens.
I see sloppy editing maybe, not dishonesty. Just skimming the article for main themes, it’s very far ranging and I can’t think of a photo that might capture all of it.
All of the areas he covered are important, e.g., infrastructure disruption, disinformation, etc., but he left out one idea and I know the Pentagon has war-gamed it. Economic disruption via currency manipulation. What would that mean for the military? By its very nature, that isn’t a conflict the military as a weapon is designed to address, but it would certainly be impacted. Something as mundane as sailors on shore leave not being able to buy, uh, ‘souvenirs’ because the currency they use is corrupted…..

The way I see it the Dems want to clean up their own house breaking bad on their own sexual predators.
They want to get a look of pristine morality so that they don’t look hypocritical when they go full metal jacket
smearing Trump. They want to overturn the election , or at least humiliate and neuter Trump.
The MSM will of course support the effort.
or, have the clintons become so toxic…is there something coming down the road that is so heinous that not even the clintons can survive?
are they the targets of all of this? i dont see any way that the dems will get impeachment with just simple sexual harassment or inappropriate behavior. they gave that up when they defended clinton/lexinsky.

I agree that a lot of this is about Trump. If you look at Twitter (not recommended immediately before or AFTER eating) there is the residual chorus of Libturds snarling about Trump’s “sexual assaults” on women and the “Access Hollywood” tape. Oh and that Rape lawsuit!
Of course, we know that the airplane incident was shown to be a fabrication. It was pretty much unbelievable on its face to begin with.
I believe it was Gloria Allred who was parading the tearful former “Apprentice” contestants who said that Trump abused them. Well, after her shameful stint in Alabama (complete with yet another complainant in tears), her credibility, as well as her clients’, is shot. Especially since the only lawsuit to come out of this was one contestant suing Trump for defamation for calling her a “liar.” Yeah, good luck with that, honey bunny.
Rape lawsuit? Oh Mother Mary, puh-leeze. That was never going to survive a 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss to begin with.

You don’t hear the MSM talking about those trips of Bill’s on the Lolita Express these days. They briefly mentioned it when it first came up, but they seem to want to a big “mea culpa” for not taking Juanita Broderick seriously – because it happened decades ago and the comparisons to Moore are apt – “Oh we should have covered it but we’re not making the same mistake now!”
But Lolita Express allegations aren’t even a decade old.

@ coldwarrior:
I do believe that they want to appear to have “clean hands” so that they can go after Trump harder.
I’m witnessing something in my local area that I’m wondering if it’s nationwide. The places that traditionally hire high school kids are in desperate straits. They can’t find any kids willing to work. They are massively understaffed at all the groceries, fast food places, etc. They are staffed entirely by retirees and adults that can’t find other work. But, the shifts that usually have teenagers can’t find any, so the adults are winding up covering shifts that they wouldn’t normally be working. I’ve talked to a few owners and they say it’s a nightmare trying to find kids to work. They won’t even fill out the applications. Then, when they do get one or two to work, they just keep screwing with their phones all shift and quit after a week or so of work.
I’m just trying to see if this is a nationwide issue.

Pretty bad. We got hit hard with meth in the early 2000’s, got a minor handle on it (except on the reservations), then the brief experiment with pot legalization brought in a massive influx of unauthorized dealers and back door deals by the authorized ones, that got driven out, but the meth dealers jumped in to fill the void. So, now we have meth heads running loose everywhere, car thefts, break ins, shootings stabbings, assaults. (Not trying to say there is a crossover between the meth heads and pot dealers because there really weren’t, it’s just the pot shops brought a huge spike in general criminal activity that the meth scum are taking advantage of).

In Wankie National Park in Rhodesia / Zimbabwe there were 3000 elephants and that was about 500 too many. So the rangers selectively shot about 300 mature females with 200 newly weaned calves at foot, shipped the calves to other parks and the sustainability of the park was maintained. I was in the rear seat of a VW Ko=mbi van looking for elephants to photograph. We found a herd of 30 females and calves . The matriarch was busy demoloshing a tree but every time we tried to pass, she would get all antsy so we backed off.
Eventually the driver just gunned it and tore past her. She chased us for 150 meters and all I could see out the back window was a VREY BIG pissed off elephant in a full charge! filing the window.
I prayed that the driver didn’t cock up a gear change or I would have had the elephant sitting on my lap in the back seat!

Then Mugabe and his boys entered the park and slaughtered a couple of thousand elephants with machine guns…. just because they could… and because Mugabe was running out of former professionally managed white farms and the government wanted to give land at the edges of Wankie Park to former guerrillas leaders to buy their loyalty.

Unlike you, the lion does not believe in the concept of “A Sporting Chance”.
The Lion is not confused in any way shape or form with regard to who or what it is. Its 400 pounds of the most successful Alpha predator to evolve in Africa in the last 60 million years. Its 400 pounds of the most ruthless merciless efficient killing machine on the African continent.
