A New Eastern Mediterranean Strategic Matrix Is Evolving
Meanwhile, the political-economic collapse of Turkey can no longer be ignored by its former allies, who face a dilemma because they can’t make the case for a viable NATO—if NATO’s mission (a relic of the first Cold War) remains the containment of Russia—if Ankara is closer to Moscow than it is to Washington.
Film Review: ‘No Way Back: The Reality of Gender-Affirming Care’
A documentary devoid of politics or bias of any sort, “No Way” is steeped in facts backed up by the testimonies of six “detransitioning” young adults, the opinions of a dozen medical, psychological, and social behavioral experts, and pesky little bothersome things like basic science and biology.

‘Kissinger’s Betrayal’: New Book Explains Why South Vietnam Fell
While Kissinger rightfully has been faulted before, Young provided detailed historical documents as “smoking guns” for his argument that Kissinger betrayed Nixon, U.S. Ambassador to South Vietnam Ellsworth Bunker, and South Vietnamese President Nguyen Van Thieu.

[Rom 1:18-22 ESV] 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. 19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made.
