HIMARS..

 

A Russian drone spotted the wheeled HIMARS and its trailing support vehicles next to a treeline in Nykanorivka, in eastern Ukraine’s Donetsk Oblast around 25 miles from the front line.

A missile launched, hypersonic Iskander—struck near the HIMARS, setting ablaze the 17-ton launcher and apparently cooking off one of its 227-millimeter M30/31 rockets.

  The 27th Rocket Artillery Brigade, the Ukrainian army’s sole HIMARS unit, normally operates at dawn or dusk and keeps it vehicles moving and under cover when they’re not on a fire-mission.

In any event, it’s a hard loss for the Ukrainian army. It seems the combination of a far-flying reconnaissance drone and a fast-acting Iskander battery finally got the better of the Ukrainian 27th Brigade.

Comment: Who are we kidding here? Ukraine should stay neutral, the American should stop providing free lunch to establish NATO base in Ukraine, circling the Russians as they did before in the Sixties.    Just a thought.

Our climate plans are ambitious," Biden said. "But we are America. We are unwavering in our commitment to innovation."

On his first day in office last week, Biden had the United States re-enter the Paris accord. He also cancelled the permit for the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline.  That was earlier with promises as he got into the office.

A year later, The U.S. has appealed to members of OPEC to step up production and exports to cover demand, including Saudi Arabia in particular. 

In other word, we need the Opec Countries, and the oil producers to dance the way Biden needs to keep the office. Hard to do. Just a thought.

We need to do more and the United States will do more," Biden told reporters, adding that "aid flowing to Gaza is nowhere nearly enough."

At the White House, spokesperson John Kirby stressed that airdrops would become "a sustained effort."

 He added that the first airdrop would be likely be military MREs, or "meals ready-to-eat."

"This isn’t going to be one and done," Kirby said.

Biden told reporters that the U.S. was also looking at the possibility of a maritime corridor to deliver large amounts of aid into Gaza.

The development comes a day after the deaths of Palestinians queuing for aid threw a spotlight on an unfolding humanitarian catastrophe in the crowded coastal enclave.

Other countries, including Jordan and France, have already carried out airdrops of aid into Gaza. \

On the other hand Netanyahu said he is close to winning the war ........................................  starving the civilians !!!

Corrosive..

 

The NYTimes piece opened with a disturbing scene, a video that captured a woman, Gal Abdush, “lying on her back, dress torn, legs spread, vagina exposed.” The authors stated, “based largely on video evidence,” that unnamed Israeli “police officials said they believed” Abdush had been raped.

 When key elements of the story are not supported with transparent and unimpeachable evidence, or when a reporter publicly engages in inappropriate behavior on social media, it can damage a news organization’s vital credibility. 

In this case, the Times, by opening its story with an anecdote later Called into Question by the victim’s family, along with the troubling actions of a freelancer, has left critics with plenty of material to sow doubt. 

That’s corrosive to the trust of the reporting and for the public record at large.

Difuse..

 

COVID-19 may have been created in a Chinese lab, a British professor told the UN Wednesday, with another expert claiming that evidence of the likelihood has reached “the level of a smoking gun.”

It is claimed the specific genetic structure of the coronavirus that allowed it to infect humans served as another strong indication of “the virus’s laboratory birth.”

“Most viruses require repeated tries to switch from an animal host to people, SARS-CoV-2 infected humans out of the box, as if it had been preadapted while growing in the humanized mice called for in the DEFUSE protocol.”   Just a thought.

Richard H. Ebright, a molecular biologist at Rutgers University, was quoted saying in a new Wall Street Journal article that the virus that killed millions around the world may actually have been manmade in China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology.  He cited evidence found in a 2018 document from the lab that talked of making such a virus.

Poll..

 

Many, at this time, think that Biden will not be nominated for the 2024 Presidential run and he knows it and the top Dems know it. Its part of keeping the public busy with something else other than the Illegal Migrants, Inflation, Prices that is soared and a new person to run.  Just a thought.
