Pentagon’s acquisition deputy Plumb talks stockpiles, industrial base

The place America is in manufacturing didn’t happen overnight, and we’re not going to get out of it overnight. Part of getting us into a resilient and robust manufacturing state of play involves making sure we can build those communities and those local investments so that you have the workforce, you have the people and you have the capital infrastructure.

US Missiles Made For, Aimed at China

The United States is working toward fielding a number of new weapon systems including the Precision Strike Missile (PrSM), the “Typhon” Mid-Range Capability missile launcher, and the “Dark Eagle” Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon, all designed from the ground up almost entirely to fight China in a future war the US envisions it can wage to prevent the East Asian nation from surpassing it militarily and economically both within the Indo-Pacific region, and globally.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: ‘Israel is a bulwark for us’

World Politics

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: “Israel is a bulwark for us… it’s almost like having an aircraft carrier in the Middle East. If Israel disappears, Russia, China, and BRICS+ countries will control 90% of the oil in the world and that would be cataclysmic for US national security.” My opinion: Yes, everyone knows that. That is why there is no problem that Israel massacres children and commits genocide. War crimes do not apply to globalists in the US. That is why both Syria and Iraq are awash with occupying US military bases, contrary to every international law in the world. That’s why with this massacre they are doing in Gaza, they are shooting themselves in the foot like in Ukraine. It’s only a matter of time before Islamic military organizations decide to blow up those oil fields in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iraq and Syria and Europe sinks in 24 hours, once again thanks to the US. US anti-aircraft systems are already ineffective against technology developed by Iran. Israel is another failed US project.

18+: The Ukrainian army bombs the centre of Donetsk

In the late afternoon of 7 November 2023, the Ukrainian army shelled the centre of Donetsk with Himars multiple rocket launchers. Although Russian anti-aircraft defences managed to shoot down several rockets, two slipped through the net and hit the social welfare building, completely destroying the staircase and causing the ceiling to collapse on the employees inside. Six civilians were killed and 11 injured. While firefighters and journalists were at the scene, the Ukrainian army shelled the same area a second time. As a result of this second strike, one of the police officers responsible for traffic in the bombed area was injured.

Why are American hospitals treating wounded Ukrainian soldiers?

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made headlines earlier this week when he visited Ukrainian soldiers in a hospital to thank them for their service and dole out commendations. But there is one aspect of the story that is raising a lot of eyebrows: the hospital where the soldiers are being treated is in New York.
