A UKRAINIAN missile struck Putin's oldest naval vessel in a massive blow to Russia's forces in Crimea. Footage showed flames and smoke billowing out from the 112-year-old warship in the occupied port of Sevastopol this morning. Explosions
hit the area as Russians were forced to issue a missile warning and close Putin's prized Crimea bridge. Fire engines reportedly rushed to the port to put out the blaze on the 315-ft long vessel. A caption under the dramatic video, shared by Astra on Telegram, said: "The rocket hit the ship. See, it's burning." The vessel hit by Ukraine is Kommuna, the...

Ng: George Takei’s False Historical Equivalence Dishonors Japanese-Americans Interned During World War II
|

Breitbart ^
| 02/27/2024 | David NG
Shame on you, George Takei. The Star Trek actor is using the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II as an all-purpose historical analogy to guilt-trip and stigmatize anyone who supports the deportation of illegal aliens. His
false equivalence is both shocking and insulting in its manipulative audacity. It’s especially insulting to that generation of Japanese Americans whose memory he clearly holds dear.

"All of the internet free speech technology was initially created by our national security state. VPNs
to hide your IP address, TOR and the dark web to be able to buy and sell goods anonymously, and encrypted chats. All these things were created as DARPA projects or joint CIA/NSA projects to be able to help intelligence-backed groups to overthrow governments that were causing problems to the Clinton administration, Bush administration, and Obama administration." "This plan worked magically from about 1991 to about 2014 when there began to be an about-face on internet freedom and its utility." "Later, NATO was publishing...

ight now, China, Taiwan, North Korea, Japan, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Jordan, Israel, Lebanon, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Sweden, among other nations, are all posturing for war or are at war. What’s
going on? Jesus said in the last days, there’s going to be a time of “wars and rumors of Wars” (Matthew 24:6). Now, there have always been wars and rumors of wars, but in the Olivet discourse in Matthew chapter 24, he’s talking about an escalation and frequency of these things. While all these other things are taking place, there’s going to be a coalescing of...

Biden Cleverly Distracts From Civil War By Starting World War

WASHINGTON, D.C. — As tensions between the federal government and 25 red states over securing the border continued to stoke fears of another Civil War, President Biden cleverly distracted a concerned American public by announcing the start of a new World War. "It's time to bomb Iran!" said the President to a
bowl of melted ice cream on his nightstand. "Those whipper-snappers have been living on borrowed time ever since they chased me and the boys around the pool with switchblades. And if that doesn't do the trick, we'll bomb Russia and China as well. Not a joke!" Many critics...

World War II depth charges, smoke floats and munition cases are among the latest eerie relics to be discovered on a deep-water survey ten miles off the coast of LA. High–resolution cameras found a massive dumping ground of munitions from the Pacific War which were tossed overboard warships before they could endanger
the ports they were returning to. A team from the University of California's San Diego Scripps Institution of Oceanography found the objects up to 3,000ft down between LA and Catalina Island, in the same area where thousands of barrels of the outlawed pesticide DDT were discovered three years...

Israel IGNORES Biden's criticism and vows to continue Hamas attacks without world support: Netanyahu uses 'friend' Joe's stunning rebuke as a rallying cry as White House pressures Tel Aviv on 'timeline' of the war

Israel Israel ignored Joe Biden's criticism of its bombardment of Gaza, vowing its war against Hamas will continue no matter what and rejecting one of the American president's key requests regarding the Palestinian Authority. 'Israel will continue the war against Hamas with or without international support,' its Foreign Minister Eli Cohen said.
His double down came after Biden issued a stunning rebuke of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, warning Israel is losing support across the globe and its conservative government needs to 'change'.

Distraught Jewish veteran Mervyn Kersh was one of nine D-Day veterans to march past the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday - but he fears another war could be on the horizon and the sacrifices of the Greatest Generation could be in vain. The
father-of-three, 98, served in the Second World War as a private with the Royal Army Ordnance Corps, fighting through Belgium, Holland and Germany. He was also sent to help survivors of Adolf Hitler's death camp: Bergen-Belsen, where 70,000 or more people died including many Jews. Speaking yesterday, as he remembered his comrades, Mervyn said tearfully: 'It was a...

In a move that has ratcheted up tensions in an already precarious region, the United States Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed the arrival of one of its Ohio-class submarines in its area of responsibility (AOR). The Biden regime has yet to release an official statement. “On
November 5, 2023, an Ohio-class submarine arrived in the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility,” U.S. Central Command wrote on X/Twitter. (snip) The Ohio-class submarines are the largest submarines ever built by the U.S. Navy. They are 560 feet long and 42 feet wide, and displace 18,750 tons when submerged.

How Many DC-3 Are Still Flying?
Believe it or not, this iconic World War II-era propellor-driven transport continues to fly in various corners of the world!

The Douglas Commercial 3 (DC-3) was one of the most mass-produced, well-engineered aircraft in history. Built
to last, to land anywhere and never to break, Douglas churned out more than 11,000 of the type before and during World War II. But how many of these 80-year-old aircraft are still flying today? The 80-year old aircraft that will never die For an aircraft that was built before the Second World War, you’d be forgiven for assuming most would have been retired by now. So, imagine our surprise when we discovered one had suffered a runway excursion in Colombia in August 2020....

As Canada's navy arrives in Japan, Tokyo begins largest military buildup since Second World War

A third of the Royal Canadian Navy's entire Pacific frigate fleet is visiting Japan. Mind you, that's just two vessels. By
contrast, Japan's navy is vastly larger and its government is embarking on its largest military spending spree since the Second World War. Japan has recently announced a $433-billion upgrade plan to turn its armed forces into a major regional force, buying missiles capable of hitting China and Chinese ships and ensuring Japan will become the world's third-largest spender on defence (after the U.S. and China). That 65 per cent increase in spending will mean Japan hits the mark of...

We are getting dangerously close to the “hot phase” of World War III, but most people in the western world don’t even realize what is going on. They

Earlier today, we learned that the UK has now delivered long-range “Storm Shadow” cruise missiles to Ukraine… The United Kingdom has delivered multiple “Storm Shadow” cruise missiles to Ukraine, giving the nation a new long-range...

Ukrainian forces have used Maxim machine guns, a weapon often associated with World War I, to mow down frontal assaults by Russian troops in the battle for Bakhmut. "It only works when there is a massive attack going on," a Ukrainian soldier identified as Borys, 48, recently told BBC News of the
Maxim gun. "Then it really works." "We use it every week," Borys added. Ukrainian forces have found the Maxim M1910 — was first introduced in 1910 (the initial version of the gun emerged in the 1880s) and employed by the Imperial Russian Army during World War I —...
