One of the trends we identified at Shoebat.com was the emergence of ‘super batteries’, mostly coming from the AI and technology sector that seem to overlap with military research projects. Our assessment was that given the rise of robotics and drones as tools of war, even to the replacement of the common soldier, they would […]
The Superbowl pulled in significantly below average ratings, which is part of a trend that is expected to continue due to generational shifts in entertainment tastes. But many still watched, and one of the noted comments from many is the performance of football star Tom Brady, who showed himself to be very successful on the […]
The political right in recent years is fond of saying “demographics are destiny”, and in the objective sense, this is absolutely true, because societies come from people, and if the people change or disappear, the society changes or disappears because societies are made by men for men to reflect their values and organization of how […]
Trump was not fundamentally different in terms of his approach, but nominally speaking, he did not do as much openly to support the proliferation of the LGBT (although under his administration it certainly increased). Now according to AFP by way of MSN News, the Biden administration is pushing a renewed attempt at conforming the world […]
One of the interesting ironies of the January 6th protests was not merely how evidence suggests strongly, as I have pointed out, that the “storming” of the Capitol was directly encouraged by government officials, but that considering how little action actually took place in comparison to what could have, the FBI is taking a very […]
One of the companies I have said to watch is Rheinmetall, for given their size, relationship with the German government, the diversity of products they make, and how Germany is showing all signs o remilitarizing, that they could become the next IG Farben. According to an article from Jane’s intelligence, the Bundeswehr has given a […]
Generally speaking, if one leaves a man and a woman alone long enough, barring strong, consistently applied and conscious choice, the two will try to come together in a union that can generation children. However, if there are social problems, or other unspoken issues, this may not always happen. Either way, when men and women […]
The situation in Tigray is going to be critical to watch because it has the potential to morph, given the other circumstances right now in the entire Sahel region, into a second and far more severe refugee crisis than what hit Europe in 2015 and 2016. This would inevitably propel a rise in nationalism and […]
In the science fiction story The Island of Dr. Moreau, written by H.G. Wells, it discusses essentially the tale of a mad doctor who using genetic therapy and what would later become the microchip, creates a race of creature on an island in the South Pacific that he rules as lord over and through which […]
With increasing regulation either in practice or looming for the common man from many governments, questions about the nature of freedom and the relationship of the rulers to the ruled of society abound. However, now adding to that debate is a new move from the state of Nevada, which wants to modify laws to create […]
Last year, I talked about the danger of the “Trump Stack”, or the COVID stimulus checks that Trump signed into law and that as I warned, likely he U.S. Senate early Friday morning approved a budget resolution that will allow passage of President Joe Biden’s coronavirus stimulus bill and also agreed that it would restrict […]
In the present article, we discuss the rise of anti-Catholic ideology in the midst of a growing trend towards occultism within the late medieval period of the 14th century. In our inquiry of the death of Christendom, we look into the early stages of statist ideologies which promoted the idea of the Church being subordinate […]
One of the trends I discussed recently was what seems to be the merging of the technology sector with the industrial sector. In the past it was the “military-industrial” complex, but this term, dated and relevant at the same time it is, not just adds data as a separate bloc into itself, but shows increasingly […]
The COVID pandemic that began in 2019 has been causing economic chaos around the world, and it is not getting better. Without speculating or discussing the details of the pandemic, the fact is that as long as ‘preventative’ measures against the pandemic remain in effect that call for massive economic restrictions, it is going to […]
Biden wants to try to end the Saudi Houthi conflict through diplomacy as opposed to arms sales:
In a recent move reported on by Bloomberg, the leaders of both the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia have reached out to Turkey and President Erdogan, hoping to usher in a new period of trade and partnership. The United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are holding out the possibility of better ties with Turkey […]
