A scale-model of a Russian floating nuclear power plant
by Debalina Ghoshal
{gatestoneinstitute.org} ~ In April 2016, reports began coming in that China has plans to build floating nuclear power plants in the South China Sea. A floating nuclear power plant consists of one or more nuclear reactors, located on a platform at sea... China apparently plans to "speed up the commercial development" of the South China Sea and views the nuclear power plants as part of that plan. Final assembly of the reactor is reported to start in coastal city of Huludao, in Liaoning province, and will be built by Bohai Shipbuilding Heavy Industry Co Ltd, a unit of China Shipbuilding Industry Corp (CSIC). China's 2016 nuclear plan, a component of the China's 13th five-year plan, is evidently to complete 58 nuclear reactors by 2020 and build another 100 gigawatt-sized reactors by 2030. These would make China the largest nuclear power producer in the world. China's floating nuclear reactor initiative seems to be a component of this nuclear plan...https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/10253/china-floating-nuclear-reactor
Pakistani government sheltering
al-Qaeda top dog Zawahiri
by Robert Spencer
{jihadwatch.org} ~ Not a friend, not an ally. The Pakistani government is aiding and abetting the global jihad. The learned analysts in Washington, however, since they don’t acknowledge that there is a jihad, refuse to see the obvious... Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence agency (ISI) has been protecting the Egyptian-born al-Zawahiri, a trained surgeon, since U.S. forces evicted Al-Qaeda from Afghanistan in late 2001, several authoritative sources tell Newsweek. His most likely location today, they say: Karachi, the teeming port city of 26 million people on the Arabian Sea. “Like everything about his location, there’s no positive proof,” says Bruce Riedel, a 30-year CIA veteran who was the top adviser on South Asia and the Middle East for the past four U.S. presidents. “There are pretty good indications, including some of the material found in Abbottabad,” where bin Laden was slain, “that point in that direction,” he adds. “This would be a logical place to hide out, where he would feel pretty comfortable that the Americans can’t come and get him.”... https://www.jihadwatch.org/2017/04/pakistani-government-sheltering-al-qaeda-top-dog-zawahiri

by meforum.org
{meforum.org} ~ April 24, 2017 – Reps. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Bill Johnson (R-OH) will launch the Congressional Israel Victory Caucus (CIVC) on April 27 at 9 a.m. The caucus' goal... to introduce a new U.S. approach to Israel-Palestinian relations. Cong. Johnson notes that "Israel is America's closest ally in the Middle East, and the community of nations must accept that Israel has a right to exist – period. This is not negotiable now, nor ever. The Congressional Israel Victory Caucus aims to focus on this precept, and to better inform our colleagues in Congress about daily life in Israel and the present-day conflict. I look forward to co-chairing this very important caucus with Cong. DeSantis." Cong. DeSantis adds: "Israel is our strongest ally in the Middle East, as we share common national interests and possess similar national values...http://www.meforum.org/6652/congressional-israel-victory-caucus-to-launch?utm_source=Middle+East+Forum&utm_campaign=07ea5598cf-CIVC_press_2017_04_24&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_086cfd423c-07ea5598cf-33703665&goal=0_086cfd423c-07ea5598cf-33703665
.The Moral Obscenity of Kim’s North Korea
{aim.org} ~ North Korea’s menace has been all over the news, including its missiles tests, visible preparations for a sixth nuclear test and its threats to attack a U.S. aircraft carrier and to reduce the U.S. to ashes... with a “super-mighty preemptive strike.” Assorted experts, debating how to handle the rogue regime of Kim Jong Un, have been weighing the pros and cons of trying yet more sanctions, new negotiations, tough talk, pressure on China, displays of military might, actual use of military force to take out North Korean missiles or even nuclear facilities, or assorted permutations of all these options and then some. Amid all the strategizing — much of which envisions somehow continuing to “manage” the North Korea problem — it’s easy to sideline a basic and profoundly important element of the Pyongyang regime, a quality we should take into account quite thoroughly, front and center, before considering any course that might leave the Kim regime in power. The feature I’m talking about is the raw moral obscenity of Kim’s North Korea...http://www.aim.org/guest-column/the-moral-obscenity-of-kims-north-korea/?utm_source=AIM+-+Daily+Email&utm_campaign=Daily%20Email%20Apr-24-2017&utm_medium=email
.Trump discusses North Korea
tensions with Asian leaders
by foxnews.com
{foxnews.com} ~ President Trump talked to leaders of both China and Japan on Monday as tensions on the Korean Peninsula have boiled over and North Korea appears ready for an ICBM launch... Trump spoke by phone with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Japan's military claimed it sent destroyers to join the USS Carl Vinson carrier group on its way to North Korea's doorstep -- and South Korea was in talks to take part as well, Reuters reported. North Korea called the carrier group's approach "an extremely dangerous act by those who plan a nuclear war to invade," according to a commentary in the ruling Workers' Party newspaper Rodong Sinmun. "What's only laid for aggressors is dead bodies."...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/04/24/trump-discusses-north-korea-tensions-with-asian-leaders.html

{townhall.comEvery time a picture of America’s Coolest Prez Ever gets posted on social media, the internet lights up like a Christmas tree. Of late, His Excellency, Barack liar-nObama, was caught on camera photographing Michelle while they cruised the South Pacific on a carbon footprint-hogging 450-foot super yacht.
One Instagram click later and, who cares about global warming, or ISIS, or Russia? The picture goes viral...followers gasp…tears flow…and leftists of the world over fawn over their American idol.
One guy on social media went so far as to describe liar-nObama as “our step dad who broke up with our mom America, who still loves us.” Seriously? No wonder people think they need safe spaces these days.
Conveniently, leftists neglect the fact that their idol who trashed the rich for eight years now lives a lifestyle of the rich and famous.
If he isn’t tucked away on a private island in the South Pacific once owned by Marlon Brando or kite surfing in the Virgin Islands with billionaire bud Richard Branson, he’s hanging out with fellow Hollywood BFFs Tom Hanks, Oprah Winfrey and Bruce Springsteen.
Not too bad for a community organizer from Chicago.
How did that happen?
His followers don’t care how it happened nor do they care that this adulated man they worship like royalty left in his wake a royal mess, spending more money and creating more debt than all his predecessors combined. Making income redistribution over economic growth his top priority, the economy sputtered his entire presidency. Americans suffered while he played golf.
Add to that, the world is on fire, thanks to poor choices, feeble leadership, and awkward appeasements. The worst of which were stashed away like time bombs, set to go off after his exit and upon the next president’s arrival.
Last year, the man whose decisions in Syria helped to create ISIS told us “the world has never been less violent” and “we are living in the most peaceful, prosperous, and progressive era in human history.”
On his watch, the Afghanistan war dragged on and Iraq was in shambles as ISIS expanded. But “the world has never been less violent” said he whose red line helped to stain the ground in Syria with the blood of a half million people while ISIS burned Christians in cages. Meanwhile, a million young Muslim men who should be defending their own countries deluged the West as “refugees” wherein terror attacks now abound.
That he believes “this is the most peaceful, prosperous, and progressive era in human history” is the reason why Democrats lost over 1000 seats under his watch. It’s also why America painted the electoral college map red last November.
But he still has his devoted followers.
Those who live to watch the world burn are forever grateful for the liar-nObama era…that eight-year vacuum of leadership when the inmates began to run the asylum and bad people were emboldened to act out evil.
Fast forward to today. News breaks that Russian bombers have been spotted off the Alaska coast twice this week, and it likely isn’t to see if our snow is melting. Russia just unveiled another new Arctic military base. The first one, Northern Clover, was completed in 2015, probably while liar-nObama was playing golf on Martha’s Vineyard, yucking it up with his rich pals while reminiscing about his 2012 debate zinger to Romney about the non-threat Russia posed.
Now North Korea is threatening to launch a “super-mighty preemptive strike” that will reduce the United States “to ashes.” China just put its bombers on alert and moved troops and equipment to the North Korean border along with Russia in anticipation that President Trump will keep his promise to keep America safe.
Spineless leadership, fake red lines, and pompous arrogance all have one thing in common: Barack liar-nObama. If only liar-nObama had pursued a career in Hollywood rather than Washington, he’d still have his feckless followers, but the world would be safer.
