UKRAINE’S Battle: How Drones and Trump Could Change the WAR

14 November 2024 — Ukrainian soldiers in the Kharkiv region are using drones to deliver supplies to troops on the front line. The Khartia brigade, led by a commander known as Kit, repurposes bomb-carrying drones to transport food, water, and hand warmers. These deliveries sustain soldiers for days as they battle Russian forces in harsh conditions.

Despite focusing on immediate challenges, Ukrainian troops are aware of potential changes with Donald Trump’s possible reelection. Trump has criticized U.S. support for Ukraine and praised Putin’s actions, which could alter American involvement in the conflict. However, Kit emphasizes that his priority is defending territory against Russian advances rather than speculating about political shifts.

Russia is intensifying attacks in Kharkiv with powerful bombs and drone swarms while advancing in other areas like Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia. Intelligence reports indicate up to 12,000 North Korean troops have been deployed near Russia’s border with Ukraine to bolster defenses against Ukrainian forces.

The situation highlights the complex geopolitical dynamics affecting Ukraine’s fight for sovereignty amid global political uncertainties. As these factors evolve, Ukrainian soldiers remain focused on their mission despite looming international changes that could impact their struggle significantly.

LABOUR PARTY’S Economic Plan Under Fire: Will It Really Work?

22 July 2024 — Britain’s new Treasury chief, Rachel Reeves, vows to run the economy with “iron discipline.” She hinted at above-inflation pay raises for public sector workers to end ongoing strikes.

The Labour Party, elected two weeks ago, faces pressure to increase salaries and welfare without raising taxes or public borrowing. Reeves criticized the previous Conservative government for high taxes and debt.

Labour won a landslide victory on promises of economic growth, housebuilding, green energy projects, and improved public services. The electorate seeks relief from high living costs and past economic mismanagement.

Inflation has dropped to 2%, but strikes by hospital doctors strain the National Health Service. Other public-sector workers like nurses and teachers have also demanded higher pay through walkouts over the past year.

REVISITING the ‘MIRACLE On The Hudson’: How Sully’s Bravery Saved 155 Lives

16 January 2024 — It’s been over a decade since Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger heroically landed US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River in an event now known as the “Miracle on the Hudson”. This unprecedented feat, which saved all 155 passengers and crew members, wasn’t part of any specific training program.

Sullenberger’s vast knowledge, extensive training, and years of experience allowed him to make this crucial decision when it was needed most.

In a recent interview with American Veterans Center provided to Fox News Digital, Sullenberger revealed that their only preparation for such an emergency was a classroom discussion. Yet despite this minimal training, he skillfully guided the plane onto the river after both engines failed due to a bird strike shortly after departing from LaGuardia Airport.

As their plane rapidly descended at two floors per second, Sullenberger and co-pilot Jeff Skiles swiftly issued a mayday call. The successful water landing of Flight 1549 remains one of New York City’s most unforgettable events and continues to captivate attention even after all these years.

US-CHINA Economic Reset PROPOSED: Will Higher Tariffs Be the New Norm?

12 December 2023 — A bipartisan committee in the House has put forth a proposal for a complete overhaul of US economic ties with China. This includes the suggestion of implementing higher tariffs. The pivotal recommendations were released in an extensive report by the House Select Committee on Strategic Competition Between the United States and Chinese Communist Party, chaired by Mike Gallagher (R-WI) and Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL).

The report posits that since its induction into the World Trade Organization in 2001, Beijing has been engaged in an economic conflict against both the US and its allies. It outlines three key strategies: revamping America’s economic relationship with China, limiting U.S. capital and technological inflow into China, and strengthening U.S. economic resilience with allied support.

One notable recommendation is to shift China to a new tariff column to enforce more robust tariffs. The committee also suggests imposing tariffs on essential semiconductor chips used in everyday devices like phones and cars. This move aims to prevent Chinese domination in this sector from granting Beijing undue control over global economy.

EVACUATION EXPLOITED: How Hamas Slyly Smuggles Militants Amid Innocent Civilians

04 November 2023 — Reports suggest that Hamas is cunningly smuggling its injured militants out of the Gaza Strip, under the guise of evacuating civilians. This tactic was confirmed by a senior U.S. official, adding an unexpected twist to the evacuation efforts following the October 7 terrorist attack on Israel.

The operation has been further muddled by unreasonable demands from Hamas, causing significant hold-ups for those with foreign passports or dual citizenship. The U.S., in collaboration with its allies, is now considering deploying foreign troops as a peacekeeping force in Gaza.

Israeli forces temporarily opened access to a crucial highway in Gaza on Saturday for evacuation purposes. Refugees were guided southbound, steering clear of conflict zones between Israeli Defense Forces and Hamas.

This revelation emphasizes the deceptive strategies employed by Hamas and underscores the importance of caution during such critical operations. The situation continues to be dynamic and demanding.

Chris PACKHAM’S RADICAL Call to Break the Law: Is It Justified or a Threat to Democracy?

23 September 2023 — In his most recent show, “Is It Time To Break The Law?”, seasoned BBC presenter Chris Packham hinted that legal protests might not be enough for environmental causes. On Channel 4, Packham suggested that law-breaking could potentially be a necessary step to save our planet.

Known for his wildlife programs and involvement in left-wing climate marches like Extinction Rebellion (XR), Packham is currently rallying support for a “Restore Nature Now” demonstration. This protest is scheduled later this month outside the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) headquarters in London.

The provocative comments made by the Springwatch host on public broadcaster Channel 4 have ignited considerable controversy. Critics contend that endorsing illegal activities erodes democratic procedures and establishes a perilous precedent.

US AID To UKRAINE: Biden’s Pledge Faces Surge of Resistance — How Americans Really Feel

19 September 2023 — President Biden’s call for sustained aid to Ukraine, announced at the United Nations General Assembly, is meeting escalating resistance within the US. The administration is pushing for an extra $24 billion in aid for Ukraine by the end of this year. This would escalate total assistance to a whopping $135 billion since the conflict ignited in February 2022.

Yet, a CNN poll from August uncovers that most Americans oppose further aid to Ukraine. The topic has grown increasingly divisive over time. Moreover, despite Western backing and training, Ukraine’s much-hyped counter-offensive has not yielded significant wins.

A Wall Street Journal survey earlier this month revealed that more than half of American voters — 52% — disapprove of Biden’s handling of the Ukrainian situation — a rise from 46% on March 22. Among those surveyed, over one-third believe too much effort is being put into helping Ukraine while only about one-fifth think not enough is being done.
