Russia was baited into war but that does not absolve its criminal act of aggression. Preemptive war, whether in Iraq or Ukraine, is a war crime. It does not matter if the war is launched on the basis of lies and fabrications, as was the case in Iraq, or because of the breaking of a series of agreements with Russia, including the promise by Washington not to extend NATO beyond the borders of a unified Germany, […]

The Medinet Habu temple was built in honour of pharaoh Ramses III, considered to be the last great monarch of the Egyptian Empire. Ramses III played a key role in Egypt’s victory over invaders known as the Sea Peoples. A mural that has been recently discovered in an Egyptian temple sheds light on the Kingdom of “one of Israel’s greatest enemies” – the Philistines, said Tom Meyer, professor of Bible studies at Shasta Bible College and Graduate School in California. According to Meyer, the 3,200-year-old mural gives an insight “into the fashion, employment, clothing, weaponry, instruments, modes of transportation and livestock […]

On 21 September, Washington imposed sanctions against Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo claiming that “for nearly two years, corrupt officials in Tehran have worked with the illegitimate regime in Venezuela to flout the UN arms embargo”. A senior Venezuelan official has described the US as the greatest threat to the international community after it decided recently to slap fresh sanctions on Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and other individuals because of their dealings with Iran, reported Newsweek. “Venezuela’s trade with Iran and with any other country is done in exercise of our sovereignty and under all legal […]

The global hunger crisis, “caused by conflict” and further compounded by the coronavirus pandemic, is now moving into a “new and dangerous phase – especially in nations already scarred by violence”, and it may be a good time for the private sector to help feed the hungry, United Nations World Food Programme executive director David Beasley announced in his remarks to a recent UN Security Council virtual session on the Protection […]
Attorney General William Barr said in a speech Wednesday that lockdowns intended to slow the spread of the new coronavirus were “the greatest intrusion on civil liberties” in the history of the United States since slavery. “You know, putting a national lockdown, stay at home orders, is like house arrest. Other than slavery, which was a different kind of restraint, this is the greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American history,” he said, according to CNN. The crowd at Hillsdale College in Michigan reportedly burst into applause. One of the hosts of the event had asked him about “constitutional hurdles for […]

As Seth Rogen and his production company, Point Grey, feel their way through the novel coronavirus pandemic, one thing is certain: They won’t be taking their cues from Christopher Nolan. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Rogen quipped, “I’m waiting to see what Chris Nolan does… ‘WWCND’ is basically what we’re saying at all times. ‘What would Chris Nolan do?’” THR’s interview, conducted via Zoom, happened to take place on the same day that Warner Bros. and Nolan confirmed that Tenet’s release, previously set for August, would be delayed for a third time. The decision followed widespread controversy over the film’s intended […]
There’s no doubt where Donald Trump is going campaign-wise. Race race race. Getting smoked by Fox News and Chris Wallace over the weekend obviously won’t shame him. He’ll just get worse and worse. My bet is he’ll overplay the race card. I remember Lee Atwater once saying something like yes, you can get many white people to vote based on racial fear, but you have to be subtle about it because most white people don’t want to think of themselves as racist. Given where public opinion has settled since George Floyd’s murder, Trump’s all but overt racism might actually be a […]

Flying Snakes Need to Wriggle Through the Air to Glide by Theresa Machemer/Smithsonianmag.com Snakes are well known for their sneaky slithering, but five species are prone to literal flights of fancy. Flying snakes, like the paradise tree snake, get around by launching themselves from treetops and gliding to branches dozens of feet away. While aloft, they wriggle and twist in a sidewinder-like squiggle that begs the question: is that really necessary? It turns out that yes, it is, according to new research published on June 29 in the journal Nature Physics. Using high-speed photography and a computer model of snakes in flight, […]

Joe Biden says he has “great concern” that Donald Trump will not only “steal” the 2020 presidential election, but could also refuse to leave the White House should he lose. ‘Daily Show’ host Trevor Noah is one of a growing number of liberals concerned about November’s election, partly due to recent reports out of Georgia showing people waiting hours in line to cast their ballots. “What is the plan up until November, to make sure the people can vote, everybody can, whether it’s Republican or Democrat, black or white, has the opportunity to vote without being in a line that’s six […]

This is the most shameful act in American history since Wounded Knee. From Eileen Flemming and former VT editor, Jeff Gates whose book on the USS Liberty is totally censored: In “GUILT BY […]
