The Most Sordid Profession

A few thoughts on our disastrous  trillion-dollar military:

It is unnecessary. It does not defend the United States. The last time it did so was in 1945.  The United States has no military enemies. No nation has anything even close to the forces necessary to invade America, and probably none the desire. A fifth of the budget would suffice for any real needs.

“Our boys” are not noble warriors protecting democracy, rescuing maidens, and righting wrongs. They are, like all soldiers, obedient and...

Sig’s New Subcompact

One of the most celebrated new guns at SHOT Show 2018 was the Sig Sauer P365, a subcompact 9mm. Sig Sauer shared a copy with Guns.com for review, and after a vigorous workout with six different shooters, we agree there’s a lot to be excited about, and one detail that needs work.

Built to conceal

The P365 is a striker-fired handgun with a 3.1-inch barrel.  It’s an inch at the widest point, just 4.3 inches high, and 5.8 inches long.  All steel components are stainless; the slide is finished in...

The Coming Hyperinflation

The coming hyperinflation will start slowly and few people will realise what is coming. But once the first real inflation signals are appearing, the process will speed up fast as the currency debasement accelerates.

Right now we are most probably seeing the first signs of inflation. The rising CRB index, together with rising oil, silver and interest rates are all telling us that inflation is coming. Initially, we will see a gradual increase but soon inflation will accelerate until we in the n...

We Are Headed for a Massive Financial Crisis

After a stern warning about a calm before an economic storm, investor Peter Schiff has accused the US Federal Reserve of being oblivious to the upcoming crash.

Seeking Alpha quotes Schiff as saying that yields have risen to levels unseen since the last financial crisis a decade ago, with yield curves currently flattening. According to Schiff, that is a troubling sign for the economy in the bond market.

“The 30-year [bond] is 3.15. It’s actually just under 20 basis points. 19 basis points is a...

Do You Long To Be Anonymous, Erase Your Digital Footprint?

Review by luv10nis4ever:

Although I don’t plan on disappearing anytime soon, the title was interesting enough for me to add this to my Kindle. The process to disappear completely is quite extensive if you follow the author’s advice. Obviously the older you are the more difficult it becomes to erase your whole life because your life trail has become so extensive, but I really feel that if you follow this book step by step it could be achieved albeit with a ton of work. Nonetheless, this was a...

The Fiasco

The more time passes since the allied attack against Syria on 14 April 2018, the more the available information reveals the amplitude of the disaster. While the United States still mange to prevent leaks from their armies, those from France are irrevocable. Washington, Paris and London clearly demonstrated that they still intend to rule the world, but they also showed that they no longer have the means to do so.

One week after the allied attack against Syria, very many questions remain unansw...

Alexander Solzhenitsyn

Translator’s Foreword (Fluctuarius Argenteus)

Almost by necessity, all previous Kholmogorov translations have been those of his older texts, with a “lag” between the original and the translation varying between several days and several months. What you see now is a much rarer treat. Kholmogorov has just finished a long and engrossing article on Alexander Solzhenitsyn, clocking in at 16,000 words, to be published by a Russian conservative outlet. Publishing a complete translation on The Unz Re...

Making France Great Again

France likes to call itself America’s oldest and closest ally.  Indeed, the American Revolution might never have succeeded without strong French military support.

However, France bankrupted itself supporting the American Revolution.  This, in turn, helped ignite the French Revolution that cost poor King Louis XVI his head.    The United States twice intervened in Europe’s wars to rescue France, amply repaying the debt.  As US General ‘Blackjack’ Pershing nobly proclaimed on the arrival of US...

With Nixon in ‘68

On the night of Jan. 31, 1968, as tens of thousands of Viet Cong guerrillas attacked the major cities of South Vietnam, in violation of a Lunar New Year truce, Richard Nixon was flying secretly to Boston. At 29, and Nixon’s longest-serving aide, I was with him. Advance man Nick Ruwe met us at Logan Airport and drove us to a motel in Nashua, New Hampshire, where Nixon had been preregistered as “Benjamin Chapman.” The next day, only hours before the deadline, Nixon filed in Concord to enter the...
