US, Turkish Troops Headed For Military Showdown In Syria

Russia warns of ‘war’ if UN plans to cut oil to North Korea are carried out
"Russia's ambassador to North Korea has warned that a United Nations attempt to cut all oil supplies to the rogue nation could spark a global conflict. Last month, the U.N. Security Council voted to cut 90 percent of petroleum exports to North Korea, something the militarized state referred to as "'an act of war.' The U.S. has repeatedly accused both China and Russia of defying these sanctions and covertly providing their neighbor with oil supplies at sea, something which both of them have denied."
16 Years: The Shocking Cost and Waste of America’s Endless Wars
"More than 73% of the world’s dictators are currently being sponsored through the military assistance provided by US taxpayers."
US Media Shops North Korea, Russia ‘Doomsday’ Nuke Narratives
The beneficiaries in this seemingly zero-sum game? Arms manufacturers, of course, but also US uranium producers, who in a complete coincidence are currently agitating for protection from foreign competition.
Tech firms let Russia analyze software widely used by U.S. government
"In order to sell in the Russian market, the tech companies let a Russian defense agency scour the inner workings, or source code, of some of their products. Russian authorities say the reviews are necessary to detect flaws that could be exploited by hackers. But those same products protect some of the most sensitive areas of the U.S government, including the Pentagon, NASA, the State Department, the FBI and the intelligence community, against hacking by sophisticated cyber adversaries like Russia."
The Myth of Trump’s ‘Global Retreat’
"Trump hasn’t forfeited America’s global leadership. On the world stage, his is a new flavor of the same dish. America is still playing the futile role of global cop, still reigns as the only superpower with a globe-straddling military presence and is still picking fights in distant regions remote to US national-security interests. The fact that it is Donald Trump at the helm of all this is fooling observers into thinking more has changed than actually has."
South Korea ‘has very strong concerns’ the US might strike North Korea
"Recent reports suggest the US is considering a 'bloody nose' strike — highly visible but materially limited — on North Korea to make a statement, and that President Donald Trump's secretaries of state and defense are the key figures holding him back. Experts have panned the idea of a strike on North Korea with near unanimity, but the Trump administration has consistently touted the use of force as a potential tool."
Yes, Hawaii emergency management stuck a password on a sticky note
"The worsitude comes in the flimsiest but all too familiar of forms: a yellow sticky note, spotted in an Associated Press photo from July, at the agency’s headquarters at Diamond Head, bearing a password and stuck to a computer screen. While there’s a press photographer in the room, obviously. Richard Rapoza, a spokesman for HI-EMA, told Hawaii News Now that the password is authentic and was actually used for an 'internal application.'"
Hawaii missile alert standdown delayed by forgotten log-in
"Governor David Ige was told two minutes after a text message was issued by the Emergency Management Agency (EMA) that the threat warning was a false alarm. But his office did not share the information via social media until about 17 minutes later. On Monday, Mr Ige acknowledged he had failed to recall his social media ID. The governor added that he now stored the details on his smartphone to avoid a repeat blunder."
Pentagon Unveils Pivot From War On Terror To New Cold War
"The strategy, the first such document to be issued by the Pentagon in roughly a decade, represented an historic shift from the ostensible justification for US global militarism for nearly two decades: the so-called war on terrorism. 'Great power competition—not terrorism—is now the primary focus of US national security,' Mattis said in his speech, which accompanied the release of an 11-page declassified document outlining the National Defense Strategy in broad terms. A lengthier classified version was submitted to the US Congress, which includes the Pentagon’s detailed proposals for a massive increase in military spending."
