The US has paid to defend S. Korea for 70 years and counting. We continue to do so until the present day. I think we have done plenty in that context while no one else has done anything. Not sure what point you are trying to make. If you are trying to argue that it makes no sense to single...

Isn't the relevant point that he has lowered drug prices?

Lou Holtz. Sorry to hear of his passing. As a USC fan, you never wanted to play against him. A great football coach.

She claimed the election was stolen. The irony.

There was an entire conflict in the 1950s. There would be no South Korea except for the sacrifices of the US. The US forces in South Korea - paid for by US taxpayers - keeps South Korea safe and North Korea contained.

The end game could take a number of forms. If it is nothing other than eliminating Iran's ability to develop nuclear weapons that would be a significant achievement. They were not going to voluntarily do so. That means future generations will not rick nuclear holocaust at the hands of...

There are a lot risks but I come back to the fact that Iran cannot be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon. Trump made clear to them that this would not be allowed. He offered them free nuclear fuel for energy if they would give up their nuclear program and they refused that deal. That makes...

Uncle Lee in The Bear. Old Bob Odenkirk knocks it out in his limited cameo. You really don't won't to throw a fork at him.

If only the US could sit back and support the efforts of other countries to take care of these problems.

Interesting that hacking into traffic cameras was apparently an important source of information on the movements of the Iranian leaders used in the attack. There are some job openings in the Iranian government if anyone is interested but longevity is not one of the benefits. The Israelis are...

Strangely many of the Muslim countries have been supportive while most of our "allies" in Europe and elsewhere have checked out as usual. Maybe that Canadian Navy will come to the rescue.

I still can't believe that after Iran was behind the deaths and maiming of hundreds of US military in Iraq that we sent them a plane loaded with $400 million in cash. Possibly one of the dumbest foreign policy decisions in the history of the world. Amazing stupidity. They must have fallen on...

A cynic might say that they don't object to war and rising oil costs. Profitable to some. Maybe they also have some optimism that this will be of short duration and perhaps result in greater stability in the Middle East.

All too true. There are legitimate reasons for concern about these types of military undertakings as most such prior efforts have been a disaster. I'm hopefully that Trump has learned from past mistakes and no American troops will be put on the ground. This should be a quick effort that...

Interesting that the stock market is holding steady today. It's even up a bit.

I'm assuming that the oil companies will use the Iran conflict as an excuse to significantly increase gas prices and that the stock market is going to tank this week. It does make me laugh that grocery prices skyrocketed based on COVID shortages and high gas prices but when those issues were...

Nice. Although it would be quite large in 1/30 or 1/32, I think if it came in segments to be assembled, that it would be a manageable item for KC or some manufacturer.

Thankfully this mass shooter in Texas is being labelled a terrorist after shooting 19 people. In the past, he would have been a "Texas man" or something along those lines by our media: "According to those sources, the shooter was wearing a sweatshirt that said "Allah" and an undershirt...

John Fetterman. I didn't vote for him and don't agree with all of his view but he has exercised amazing common sense and not just toed the party line. No easy task these days. Maybe every politician should have a stroke if this is the result.

Osprey has an upcoming book on the Battle for Berlin being released in May. "Berlin: Endgame 1945" by Prit Buttar.
