Here’s why America’s trust in the military is still in the dumps

After a precipitous decline in confidence, the Ronald Reagan Institute poll asked for reasons. The answers are illuminating..By: Kelley Beaucar Vlahos The Ronald Reagan Institute has released its annual poll on Americans’ trust in its military, and not surprisingly, it’s still in the dumps. While the organization says the free fall from 70 percent just five years ago is “stabilizing,” the fact is that only 48 percent of respondents expressed “a great deal of trust and confidence” in the institution — just three points up from 2021. I wrote about the possible reasons for this last year. The organization’s head, Richard Zakheim, had acknowledged that the 2021 poll did not drill down on the reasons why respondents had lost faith in the one institution that up until t...

Bernie to push vote on Yemen war powers next week

The expedited measure would end the US role in the conflict and alter Washington’s relationship with Saudi Arabia. By: Ben Armbruster Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) will introduce a war powers resolution next week that would end U.S. support for the Saudi-led war in Yemen, according to reporting by the Intercept today. The move comes just two months after reports emerged that the Biden administration began a process of reevaluating the U.S. relationship with Saudi Arabia after the Gulf kingdom refused to increase oil production amid rising prices due in part to the war in Ukraine. A UN-brokered ceasefire between the Saudi-led coalition and Houthi rebels in Yemen expired in October but violence between the warring parties has been ...

On This Day In 1941, The Japanese Attached Pearl Harbor Changing America Forever

At 7:55 a.m. Hawaii time, a Japanese dive bomber bearing the red symbol of the Rising Sun of Japan on its wings appears out of the clouds above the island of Oahu. A swarm of 360 Japanese warplanes followed, descending on the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor in a ferocious assault. The surprise attack struck a critical blow against the U.S. Pacific fleet and drew the United States irrevocably into World War II. With diplomatic negotiations with Japan breaking down, President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his advisers knew that an imminent Japanese attack was probable, but nothing had been done to increase security at the important naval base at Pearl Harbor. It was Sunday morning, and many military personnel had been given passes to attend religious ser...

How the UAE turns its interests into US policy

A new Quincy Institute report examines one of the largest and most well financed foreign influence operations inside the United States. By: Ben Freeman UAE meddling in U.S. politics is now a national security concern, according to a classified report compiled by U.S. intelligence officials and briefed to policymakers in Congress and the executive branch. While the report remains classified to the public, the UAE’s attempts to illegally meddle in U.S. politics and elections, however, have made front page headlines for years — including a scheme to illegally funnel millions of dollars into the campaigns of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential election and a multi-million dollar covert campaign to vilify the UAE’s rival Qata...

Hawkish experts dominate mainstream Ukraine coverage

Since the Russian invasion in February, elite outlets have leaned on a very narrow range of monolithic sources for their reporting. by: John Kempthorne A crucial function of a free press is to present perspectives that critically examine government actions. In major articles from the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal discussing the escalation of the war in Ukraine, however, such perspectives have been hard to come by—even as the stakes have reached as high as nuclear war. In September, Russian President Vladimir Putin escalated the war by announcing a mobilization of up to 300,000 extra troops (CNBC, 9/21/22) and threatened to use “all the means at our disposal” to ensure “the territorial integrity of our motherland” (CNBC, 9/23/22). A m...

The US military is operating in more countries than we think

A new report finds that DOD uses ‘security cooperation’ programs for ‘secret wars,’ recommends that Congress rein them in. by: Jim Lobe U.S. military forces have been engaged in unauthorized hostilities in many more countries than the Pentagon has disclosed to Congress, let alone the public, according to a major new report released late last week by New York University School of Law’s Brennan Center for Justice. “Afghanistan, Iraq, maybe Libya. If you asked the average American where the United States has been at war in the past two decades, you would likely get this short list,” according to the report, Secret War: How the U.S. Uses Partnerships and Proxy Forces to Wage War Under the Radar. “But this list is wrong – off by at least 17 countries in which the United ...

<strong>The Big Hollywood Lie:<br>Denying that Jews Control the Film Business</strong>

The Big Hollywood Lie:
Denying that Jews Control the Film Business

When country singer Dolly Parton told Vogue magazine a couple of months ago that her idea for a TV series about a country singer who becomes a gospel singer was turned down by Hollywood, she said that "everyone's afraid to touch anything that religious because most of the people out here are Jewish, and it's a frightening thing for them to promote Christianity." Truer words were never spoken. But the ADL's chief troublemaker, Abe Foxman, immediately flew into one of his by-now tiresome furies and fired off a letter (which he made available to the news media, of course) to Dolly, scolding her for her innocent, honest comment. Foxman charged that Ms. Parton was invoking "the old antisemitic stereotype of Jewish control of Hollywood and hostility toward Christianity." He did...

Dave Chappelle’s ‘SNL’ monologue sparks backlash as being antisemitic

By Lisa Respers France, CNN Dave Chappelle’s comments about the Jewish community during his “Saturday Night Live” monologue are being slammed as antisemitic. Anti-Defamation League chief executive officer Jonathan Greenblatt took to Twitter on Sunday to criticize the comedian and the NBC late night show. “We shouldn’t expect @DaveChappelle to serve as society’s moral compass, but disturbing to see @nbcsnl not just normalize but popularize #antisemitism,” Greenblatt tweeted. “Why are Jewish sensitivities denied or diminished at almost every turn? Why does our trauma trigger applause?” The controversial comic hosted the show and addressed the firestorm around Kanye West, who has legally changed his name to “Ye,” following his remarks about Jewish people. ...

Dave Chappelle Says “I Hope They Don’t Take Anything Away From Me” After Opening ‘SNL’ With Risqué Jewish Jokes

By Peter White Dave Chappelle certainly didn’t pull any punches, as usual, with his opening monologue on Saturday Night Live. The comedian opened his nearly 15 minute set by addressing Kanye West’s recent antisemitism. “I renounce anti-semitism in all its forms – that, Kanye, is how you buy yourself some time,” he started. “I’ve been doing this 35 years. Two words in English language words you should never say – The and Jews. No one does good after they say that.” But in typical Chappelle form, he managed to get right up to the line himself as he continued to discuss the topic. “I don’t think Kanye is crazy, he’s possibly not well. I’ve been to Hollywood, this is just what I saw. It’s a lot of Jews. Like a lot. There’s a lot of Black people in Ferguson, Missou...

Lawsuit accuses Mort Klein of sexist, racist behavior as head of ZOA

Klein has long been the subject of controversy over his aggressive public rhetoric. Morton Klein, president of the Zionist Organization of America, was accused of creating a “toxic” culture at the organization and making racist and sexist comments. Photo by Zionist Organization of America By Arno Rosenfeld The former deputy to Mort Klein, president of the Zionist Organization of America, is suing him and the group, accusing the often combative leader of racist and sexist behavior. John Rosen, whom the organization fired as executive director in August, is seeking $1.2 million in damages. Klein and the ZOA have denied any wrongdoing. According to the lawsuit, which was filed earlier this month in New York Supreme Court, Klein has a history of denigrating Black people and...
