A giant space rock demolished an ancient Middle Eastern city and everyone in it

 A giant space rock demolished an ancient Middle Eastern city and everyone in it

Excerpt: As the inhabitants of an ancient Middle Eastern city now called Tall el-Hammam went about their daily business one day about 3,600 years ago, they had no idea an unseen icy space rock was speeding toward them at about 38,000 mph (61,000 kph). Flashing through the atmosphere, the rock exploded in a massive fireball about 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) above the ground. The blast was around 1,000 times more powerful than the Hiroshima atomic bomb. The shocked city dwellers who stared at it were blinded instantly. Air temperatures rapidly rose above 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit (2,000 degrees Celsius). Clothing and wood immediately burst into flames. Swords, spears, mudbricks and pottery began to melt. Almost immediately, the entire city was on fire. [The authors have done a really wonderful job explaining what seems to have happened based on the vast amount of recovered evidence. They also speculate that this may be the source of the biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah. This article won’t change your life, but you will likely find it interesting. “...just like the people of Tall el-Hammam” are the last words of the article–it goes on past many ads. Ron P.]

Antony Blinken Changes His Tune

 Antony Blinken Changes His Tune

Excerpt: On August 31, White House press secretary Jen Psaki declared that, “We have enormous leverage over the Taliban, including access to the global marketplace, and that’s no small piece of leverage.” Psaki’s comment always seemed like a classic example of “mirror-imaging” — erroneously assuming that what is important to officials in Washington is also important to foreign leaders. The Taliban have always believed that young girls who go to school deserve to have their faces scarred with acid. They burn down schools that teach girls. They’re whipping women who dare come out into the street and protest. They’re severely beating journalists who cover those protests. The Hazara ethnic minority is desperately trying to leave the country, fearing that the Taliban will carry out a full-scale genocide at the first opportunity.

Book recommendation: We Band of Angles

 

We Band of Angels: The Untold Story of the American Women (Nurses) Trapped on Bataan by Elizabeth Norman

https://smile.amazon.com/We-Band-Angels-American-Trapped/dp/0812984846/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1H7Q1LU2K3K7K&dchild=1&keywords=we+band+of+angels+by+elizabeth+m.+norman&qid=1630952151&sprefix=We+Band+of+Angles%2Caps%2C191&sr=8-1

This is a terrific book about the Army and Navy nurses on Bataan and Corregidor. It will be of great interest to WWII buffs and to everyone interested in nursing or the medical arts. It is the selection for our next book club meeting and I’m glad for it.. I wish the snowflakes and those who kneel for the flag could read this to understand what Americas have gone through. It chocked me up in several places. I highly recommend it.

Biden and the Left-wing Standard of Attacking Presidents

 But, but, but..... if the Left didn't have a double standard, they'd have no standards at all.  This has been manifestly evident for a very long time now.

 
Still, it's nice to see Hanson dissect this in detail.

In just a few months Joe Biden has wrought a series of disasters that will invoke outrage that dwarfs the concocted anger directed at Donald Trump.
