Congo is a place where there has been a lot of tension in government as well as a sharp increase in western corporate activities related to the mining of rare-earth minerals used is computing and advanced technologies for artificial intelligence. Not surprisingly, there also has been a sharp increase in Islamic terrorist attacks, with most […]
In the movie Jaws, Police Chief Brody is helping Captain Quint shovel fish entrails into the water to attract the giant shark, and at one point the shark arrives and surprises Brody, to which he responds to Quint “You’re going to need a bigger boat”. An analogy can be drawn between this and the current […]
I have made very clear that the COVID situation right now is polarized in that there is no balance, for all purposes, that one can see in discussions about it. Either one is “pro-mask” and “pro-vaccine”, or “anti-mask” and “anti-vaccine”, with people jeopardizing friendships, relationships, and civil discourse over it. As I have tried, and […]
My thoughts on the connection between nationalism and imperialism:
Dealing with the Puritans…

By Theodore Shoebat My humorous take on the Black Hebrew Israelites:
There are certain taboos in every society that people just do not do for whatever reason, whether this is good or bad. In modern America, the Anglosphere in general, and increasingly, “Western” society, that taboo is to say anything bad about the LGBT. To criticize Sodom is to incur the wrath of Sodom, and he […]
It is said that Section 230 created the Internet, because it declared that Internet service companies are not responsible for the actions of their users except for major, egregious, constant violations. This protected them from legal action enough that people could say and do what they wanted and the companies did not have to fear […]
It is a known facet that gas powered tools are superior to electric ones, and likely will always be barring major, serious changes to their functioning. That said, the push for electric cars has remained a constant, and is likely going to be a major trend for the future, namely because given that electricity has […]
According to the Christian Post, the Biden administration is considering the removal of ‘terrorist’ as a designation for the Iranian-supported Shiite Houthi rebels, which some are saying will result in an increase in the persecution of Christians in Yemen. The U.S. government’s decision to remove the terror designation from the Iran-backed Yemeni Houthis could lead […]
Too much of anything is usually not good, because it creates an imbalances, and whether it is in politics, health, or anything else, imbalances that exist, created intentionally or not, tend to neglect other areas while overfavoring others, and such lopsided, uneven development causes more problems. It is obvious that eating too much meat is […]
Shoebat.com has been closely monitoring the Tigray situation because, as I have noted, I believe that it has the potential to be used for a Bosnian-1994 style conflict by the Biden administration for the further realization of US and NATO policy, eventually culminating in a major global war. Ethiopia, historically divided between the US and […]
Texas, a major economic powerhouse in the US, in recent weeks has suffered a serious attack on her image due to poor preparations, resulting in her electrical and in part, water grid going down across the state due to a long-term failure to weatherize for the future. Texas’s largest and oldest electric power cooperative on […]
China is a rising power, but historically speaking, she tends to fall just as she is rising due to self-inflicted injuries. Right now, one of the big problems in China is her fertility rates. As I have noted before, one cannot have a society without people, and for China, because for decades she promoted a […]
It is true that when a president leaves office, his responsibilities go with him and the focus shifts to the one in power. Regardless of who it is, it is not good to focus on the predecessor, but the incumbent. However, the Orlando Sentinel points out an interesting result from the recent CPAC conference, and […]
