COVID has disrupted shipping supplies and the flow of goods and services around the world, but it is not just COVID that is causing this. According to FreightWaves, a series of delays at the Panama Canal, one of the most important shipping passages in the world, is causing major backups in the trade supply chain. […]
Russia claimed to be the first nation to have developed a COVID vaccine, called- in a name that is a curious throwback to the Soviet period -the Sputnik V. Now according to Live Mint, Russia is preparing, per Putin’s order, to have mass vaccinations. Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday ordered authorities to begin mass […]
By Theodore Shoebat In this video I debate Robert James Cross, a far-Leftist who calls himself an anarcho-monarchist and who wants to overthrow the US government. It was a good faith debate even though I find his ideology to be destructive:
China and India are in a very poor state of relations right now as the two great nations with the largest world populations and third and fourth strongest militaries have been battling with each other through skirmishes on the border regions of the two nations. The accusations have flown and bodies have fallen, and at […]
Almost two years ago, I wrote a piece here on Shoebat.com about a disputed archipelago between Russia and Japan. The Russian call them the Kuril, the Japanese the Chishima, but the small islands that lay between the southernmost point of Sakhalin Island in Russia to the tip of Hokkaido in Japan are very important for […]
When I cover President Trump- as I will do with Biden too -I try to see the good, bad, and ugly in him, because he is first a human being before a political figurehead. Some believe Trump can do no wrong. Some believe Trump is, like a Hindu pagan deity, another incarnation of absolute evil. […]
In the dystopic novel 1984, as well as its Russian inspiration “We” by Evgeny Zamyatin, there are screens- the “telescreen” -that broadcasts information all day as well as spies on the public. Nowhere can one go to avoid the telescreen. Shoebat.com has warned about many trends, including one of them being the formation of conditions […]
Who should be on a company’s Board of Directors? Ideally, whoever a company designates, and that should be people who have an interest in the company’s welfare. But now, the NASDAQ has taken an unprecedented step of filing a proposal with the FEC that if passed, will allow them to require that companies listed now […]
Euthanasia is murder. There is no other way to put it. That said, there are a lot of people who wish to deny this. As such, it has become common in many “civilized” nations, including the US, to allow euthanasia for people who are sick and want to kill themselves. However, as many people have […]
One of the trends driving migration from Africa is anti-Christian violence, especially by various Muslims group as the antagonists. Nigeria has seen continual fighting between Christian and Muslim factions, and according to a report from the Christian Post, the terror group Boko Haram has launched its deadliest terrorist attack yet this year that has left […]
There is a song that I find quite annoying called “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas”, for the vapid lyrics combine with trite expressions an meaningless statements to form an excuse for a musical piece that is a reflection of a pagan “Yuletide” more than a Christmas celebration. One of the lines, however, stands out […]
China has a trend of being unable to lie nor bluff, but doing things in her attempts to do either of the two that inevitably backfire on her and make her look like a cruel, savage nation and causes people to not want to associate with her, which furthers her own isolation until eventually she […]
Following the election and the squabble that ensued, it is pretty clear that Biden is going to be officially designated as president. However, as the Daily Beast reports, Trump is not going out of office without plenty to say, including in his first post-election interview where he alluded to that Biden won by the FBI […]
According to the AP, President Biden may literally start off his administration on the wrong foot as a report has come that he has fractured his foot. President-elect Joe Biden fractured his right foot while playing with one of his dogs, an injury discovered in a scan Sunday and that will likely require him to […]
The COVID pandemic has created many unfortunate situations for business so that people who work hard have been forced into bankruptcy or closing their business to try and save what they have left. It has already been reported, for example, that one-third of small businesses in New Jersey have closed because of pandemic-related economic consequences. […]
Shoebat.com has been watching the conflict in Tigray in northern Ethiopia on the Egyptian-Eritrean-Sudanese border region noting that while it cannot be definitively proven, that it may be a conflict instigated by outside political actors because of Ethiopia’s history in African geopolitics and in particular with the wars between Russia and NATO. According to the […]
