Read Questioning the COVID Company Line: Critical Thinking in Hysterical Times to find out a bunch of stuff which you may not have known, including: "Listen to The Science!" embodies a logical fallacy. Vaccine technology depends upon the ability of the natural immune system to work. Professions of ignorance as to whether people who already recovered from the virus needed the shots revealed the true agenda of the spokespersons for companies which persuaded many governments to impose universal mandates. The WHO (World Health Organization) and CDC (Centers for Disease Control and...

Cluster Bomb Catastrophe

by Laurie Calhoun | Aug 15, 2023 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy

The U.S. government’s disdain for international law as expressed in the United Nations Charter, the Geneva Conventions, and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was made plain during the Global War on Terror, through its offensive military invasions and its programmatic torture and summary execution of suspects. The willingness to defy global opinion on these conventions has come to the forefront again with the announcement that cluster bomb munitions, the use of which by Russia was denounced by the Biden administration as criminal in 2022, are now being sent to Ukraine in 2023. The...

Implausible Deniability: The US Government Approach to Ukraine

by Laurie Calhoun | Aug 1, 2023 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy

“For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power,” said U.S. president Joe Biden of Russian President Vladimir Putin on March 26, 2022, during a speech in Warsaw, Poland. On December 5, 2022, multiple unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs, or lethal drones) were used in Russian airspace to attack military installations near Kursk. This incursion on Russia’s territory, which reportedly killed three people, was alarming in that it represented an escalation in the conflict over eastern Ukraine which could easily spin out of control, at least judging by the annals of history. If the war raging...

Lethal Drones at the U.S.-Mexico Border?

by Laurie Calhoun | Jun 27, 2023 | Featured Articles

Fentanyl has caused many overdose deaths in recent years, and much of it has entered the United States through Mexico. A number of politicians have thrown their support behind a proposal to officially label narcotics traffickers based in Mexico as “terrorists." Not all of the Republican lawmakers who support this idea have openly embraced the use of lethal drones to eliminate such persons, but that would be the inevitable policy implication of such labeling, given the wording of anti-terrorist legislation. At least one presidential candidate, Vivek Ramaswamy, has said the quiet part out...

Turn Off, Don’t Automate, the Killing Machine

The quest to develop and refine technologically advanced means to commit mass homicide continues on, with Pentagon tacticians ever eager to make the military leaner and more lethal. Drone swarms already exist, and as insect-facsimile drones are marketed and produced, we can expect bug drone swarms to appear soon in the skies above places where suspected “bad guys” are said to reside—along with their families and neighbors. Following the usual trajectory, it is only a matter of time before surveillance bug drones are “upgraded” for combat, making it easier than ever to kill human beings by...
