Bullets whizzed by Cpl. Daniel “Duke” Heller as he rescued wounded Marines who’d been trapped in a North Vietnamese Army ambush in the A Shau Valley, Vietnam, on Feb. 13, 1969. Despite being wounded by shrapnel from an RPG, Heller pushed on. He received a Silver Star Medal for his actions that day, but his fellow Marines campaigned for years to see the award upgraded. Five-and-a-half decades later, that happened. On Wednesday, Heller received the Navy Cross, the second-highest valor award a Marine can receive. The 39th Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. Eric Smith, pinned Heller’s Navy Cross to...

[Fifty-]Mile-Long Barbed Wire Barrier Erected on Northern Frontier Of Palestine to Bar Arabs. By H. R. Knickerbocker. INS Staff Correspondent. Northern Palestine Frontier, Oct. 29, (INS) Jews are a game of the anti-Semite killers in great sections of Europe. There is not even a game law to protect them, but in Palestine with their handicaps, they have at least some of the images of self-defence. They have today completed the greatest piece of fortification that the Jews have ever constructed for Jews since they put up the wall around Jerusalem two thousand years ago.... Its further significance is that an...

"I really wanted to shed a positive light on Jewish culture"Nobody Wants This creator Erin Foster has defended the show after it was criticised for its negative portrayal of Jewish women. The new Netflix romantic-comedy series, which centres on a relationship between a rabbi (Adam Brody) and a sex podcaster (Kristen Bell), has come under fire since its release on September 26.

Among the critics was Glamour senior west coast editor Jessica Radloff, who published an essay titled ‘Netflix’s Nobody Wants...

A military enthusiast bought a tank on eBay recently and discovered $2.5 million of gold bars hidden inside, in one of the most unexpected and intriguing places where gold has ever been found.

Man regrets handing in the gold found in the tank from eBay Stunned by the discovery,...

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh sparked controversy during the team's NFL game against the Minnesota Vikings in London on Sunday. The 45-year-old was spotted on the sidelines at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium wearing a Lebanese flag below the Nike logo on the sleeve of his team hoodie. The night before Sunday's game - the first of the NFL's international fixtures this season - Israeli bombing continued on Beirut, the Lebanese capital, amid the Israel-Hezbollah war. The Hezbollah stronghold in south Beirut was hit by more than 30 strikes overnight, which were heard across the city, with smoke still seen...

YouTube personality and Kick streamer Jack Doherty totaled his $200,000 McLaren supercar as he apparently texted and drove in the rain — while live-streaming himself. Video of Doherty’s Kick stream shows the 20-year-old Internet star looking down at his phone in his hand as he drives along a slippery Miami highway Saturday morning. Seconds later, Doherty loses control of the vehicle, screaming as he glides across the right lane and smashes into a guard rail. The video on the streaming platform goes white, and his cameraman in the passenger seat can be heard groaning in pain. The two men can...

In the past 50 years, women without children have begun to redefine the traditional narratives of family and fulfillment. In the 1970s, about one in every 10 women would exit their childbearing years without bearing children. In the mid 2000s, that statistic became one in five. In the past 10 years, the childbearing rate of women in their 20s has fallen yet another 15%. The data says it all: More and more women every year are opting out of motherhood. I am immensely proud to be one of 22 million women aged 20-39 in the U.S. who have not given...

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- While notable on its own, the slight leftward shift over the long term in Americans’ political ideology that Gallup has previously documented is even more significant when reviewing the trend among different age and gender groups. Increased liberalism since the 1990s has occurred much more strongly among women of certain age groups, while men’s views have been steadier.

When Hurricane Helene ravaged the Southeast recently, horror stories of ineptitude by federal government agencies abounded. Repeats of Lahaina and East Palestine. Here is a proposed solution: abolish FEMA and remove the federal government from the picture

"Our people respect the Russian and Ukrainian people," says Savvo Dobrovic. "I simply haven’t noticed any bad relations." It sounds like a recipe for tension and confrontation: tens of thousands of people from opposing sides in a bitter, protracted war descending on a small Balkan nation with its own very recent memories of conflict. More than four million people have fled Ukraine for temporary protection in the European Union - to Germany and Poland and elsewhere. But beyond the EU, Montenegro has let in in more than 200,000 Ukrainians, making it the highest per capita Ukrainian refugee population in the...

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico vowed on Sunday to block Ukraine from joining NATO for as long as he is head of the country's government. NATO's leadership wants Ukraine to join the military alliance after its war with Russia ends in order to deter further aggression from Moscow, but Fico's declaration highlights the political difficulties that are likely to arise in pursuing that aim. “As long as I am head of the Slovak government, I will direct the MPs that are under my control as chairman of the [ruling Smer] party never to agree to Ukraine's joining NATO,” he said...

As East and Gulf Coast ports begin to operate as normal again, one of the country’s top entrepreneurs is weighing in on “the trouble” with union workers’ demands. “The trouble with East Coast ports is they’re very old, they’re very inefficient,” O’Leary Ventures Chairman and “Shark Tank” star Kevin O’Leary said on “Varney & Co.” Friday. “And when you start to compare them against other international ports like Singapore and the other Asian ports,” he continued, “we’re just not holding much up against them. And that’s very bad for productivity.” US dockworkers returned to work Friday morning after reaching a...

People do not realize what God has already done for them through Christ Jesus. But, God has already released grace and mercy to everyone and it's available for everyone through Christ Jesus. And God desires that you accept it, 1 Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. A lot of people have the wrong idea of how God is. People think that God is waiting to condemn them or He's waiting to punish them, but God would rather show mercy that judgement. That's why 2 Peter 3:9 says,...
