At 02:50 hours local time on December 26, the Ukrainian Air Force attacked the port in occupied Fedosia, Crimea. The air raid lasted about 30 minutes, with a Ropucha-class large landing ship, believed to be the Novocherkassk, taking a direct hit.

February 14, 2013 - a date I will always remember.

There is chatter on Russian channels that support the claim by Kyiv. We speculate that the aircraft was down by Patriots given a similar air defense ambush in M...

I've been somewhat transparent with my long COVID struggles. I say somewhat because the reality is that I've really been struggling with repeated bouts of exhaustion that haven't gone away. As a card-carrying member of GenX, I was raised to shut up and suck it up, and I have fully embraced medical stoicism.
Unless you took most of November off, you know that I took a doctor-mandated...

Venezuela-Guyana Crisis
The Venezuela-Guyana Crisis appears to have reached a partial resolution, with both nations agreeing to non-aggression and to respect the 1966 Geneva Agreement. UNASUR and CARICOM likely played a significant role in deconfliction. It is unclear (and it's a Saturday, so I'm not looking) if Venezuela will honor the International Court of Justice as the arbiter, as ...

Who would have thought that signaling the intent to invade your neighbor due to a 175-year-old border dispute would raise the ire of an unlikely alliance of Brazil, the United States, the United Kingdom, Suriname, and France? Nicolas Maduro read the room and, at least for now, has changed his tune, seeking a peaceful solution to solve the Essequibo crisis. One problem - Maduro is not negotiatin...

Can too much of a good thing be not so good?
Yes.
While Russia is 3 to 4 months past the point when many predicted that sanctions and the isolation of the Russian economy would start to bite, Russian economists are running out of metaphorical rabbits to pull from their hats.
First and foremost, there are gaping holes in the sanctions against Russia that have helped extend the ...
