War and Spycraft In Today’s Environment

Since January 20th, it has been impossible to write something on a Saturday and not have it be stale by Monday. This article was meant to cover spycraft in the war in Ukraine. Then Trump moronically and unconstitutionally declared war on Iran.

Now that Donald Trump has unilaterally chosen to launch a war against Iran without the authorization of Congress, let’s not mistake this as a bold act by an American president making a serious decision for the good of the nation. This is dangerously reckless, illegal, and impeachable action by a malignant despot desperate to be seen as a strong man. It comes on the tails of his sad, sparsely attended military parade intended to showcase his power. And it’s consistent with his impulse to incite conflict and chaos without any clear indication of strategic thinking or future planning of what he’s unleashing. - Steven Beschloss

We have been in some sort of military conflict since the day I was born. Will it never end?

As we sit and watch a bumbling idiot play at statecraft in the White House, it is essential to remember that our enemies are clever and resourceful; they should not be underestimated.

Ukraine

We owe Ukraine a big thank you.

Operation Spiderweb was planned in secret for over 18 months. Ukraine’s agents moved short-range drones and explosives inside Russia, intending to strike at Soviet air defenses.
