US ruler Donald Trump is hypocritically demanding that Israeli ruler Benjamin Netanyahu pull his military forces from Lebanon and Syria, as the US increases its strikes on Iran. “They don’t want you there. You should redeploy,” Trump reportedly told the Israeli leader. Perhaps the warmongerer should take his own advice. Netanyahu insists on continuing the occupation of both Lebanon and Syria, while the US presses forward in its own war with Iran, which Israel assisted in starting.

NEW TAIPEI CITY, Taiwan — China sent coast guard vessels to patrol the Pacific Ocean east of Taiwan in June and weeks later test-fired a submarine-launched ballistic missile from the South China Sea to the Pacific.While the two maneuvers answered different security-related activities by U.S. allies in Asia, experts say China used both to try out new, attention-grabbing and long-term ways to deter others from challenging its territorial claims.The Chinese Coast Guard vessels in waters east of Taiwan since May are meant as police activity rather than more provocative four years of sporadic naval or air force drills around the…
Back in the 1990s, it was widely predicted that laser sights might very well be the next “big thing” in handguns utilized for personal defense. The first successful laser sight was invented by Dr. John Matthews — founder of famed SureFire — some years before, but it wasn’t quite ready for prime time. Matthews was able to design a helium-neon laser and mount it on a revolver and, while it did indeed work, cost and size of such a unit made it impractical. The Streamlight TLR-8 G, featuring a white light and a green laser, is a perfect match for…
