War

A computing problem called the halting problem proves computers cannot correctly decide whether or not to kill a human. The Pentagon won't care.

Ukrainian president planning genocide in eastern Ukraine.

""Their children will hole up in basements!" screeched Ukrainian "President" Poroshenko, the oligarch and "Chocolate King." "This is how we will win this war!" He was talking about the children of the people of East Ukraine, whose cities are being bombed from the air by the US-supported Ukrainian military. Thousands have been killed, mostly civilians: Ukraine’s war on its own people has displaced nearly a million people. Many have fled to neighboring Russia, while a little under half a million are classified as internally displaced refugees. The Ukrainian military, which claims to be fighting "terrorists," is using cluster bombs – weapons that are banned in the civilized world, but freely used by Ukraine’s military, which includes the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion."

No wonder Putin is angry. On the other hand, this is what happens when you asymmetrically invade another country.

US turning Russia into an enemy again.

Jesse Ventura has it right.

"Ventura did say, however, that he isn't anti-veteran. After all, he is one himself, having served in the U.S. Navy Underwater Demolition Team member during the Vietnam War.

"You can hate the war and not hate the vet. The veteran is a pawn. They have to do it. They are not given a choice," he said. "Our vets are honorable people... I bear no grudge.""

I think most are honorable people  I don't agree with all the veteran hate at LewRockwell.com. I disagree with that, the knee-jerk support for open borders and the knee-jerk push for not voting.

"In particular, Ventura took issue with the large dollar amount pinned to foreign wars, arguing that "international corporations" are the ones who "truly run our country today."

"That's why wars are fought -- so the profiteers of war can make money," Ventura said, pointing to the large portion of the annual budget that goes toward national security and defense.

"If we weren't involved in these wars, we would have more freedom," he said."

Venture is right about that too.
