Ukraine: Regime Change via the Oster Conspiracy

Image
The Oster Conspiracy As the Ukrainian military position becomes ever more untenable at the front lines, low morale amongst the battle-weary soldiers and a pause in military aid (except intelligence reports) by the Americans, President Zelensky seems to be determined to carry on the fight. For this reason, it would not be unthinkable that a 21 st century version of the Oster Conspiracy may be strongly considered by high-ranking Ukrainian officials. What was the Oster Conspiracy? In 1938, Nazi Germany was negotiating with France and the UK with respect to obtaining the Sudetenland region in Czechoslovakia. Like Ukraine today, Czechoslovakia was not involved in these negotiations. Lt. Colonel Hans Oster, deputy head of the Abwehr (German intelligence agency) along with other German generals, believed that Germany was unprepared and not strong enough to enter a war should negotiations fail. Although Germany had built up its military since Hitler's ascension to power in 1933, an i...

America?s Premier Media Expert Blasts The View?s Joy Behar

America's Premier Media Expert Blasts  The View 's Joy Behar:  "She Must Want to Get Sued." Joy Behar Launches Slanderous, Racist, Anti-Musk Attack —  Apparently,  The View  Hates Immigrants. In a jaw-dropping display of bigotry,  The View  co-host Joy Behar launched a vicious on-air attack against tech visionary and immigrant entrepreneur Elon Musk on Thursday. Behar smeared the South African-born innovator as a  "foreigner, foreign agent, enemy of the United States,"  even suggesting Musk was  "pro-apartheid"  simply because he grew up in South Africa. Pro-apartheid?  That's like claiming every German is pro-Holocaust or assuming every Israeli supports bombing civilians. It's absurd — and, ironically, precisely the kind of sweeping racial stereotype  The View  and its audience claim to abhor. America's premier media expert,  Michael Levine , wasted no time condemning Behar's unhinged tirade: "Joy Behar's ...

Why Rare Earth Minerals Are Critical to the Supply Chain

Image
A Strategic Opportunity for U.S. Manufacturing, Technology & Defense Without rare earth minerals, modern manufacturing, technology, and defense industries simply cannot function. These critical materials are essential for producing semiconductors, EV batteries, pharmaceuticals, aerospace components and AI-driven technology. Discussions for the U.S. to access Ukraine's vast reserves of rare earth minerals have recently stalled, leaving a key supply chain opportunity in limbo. While negotiations remain uncertain, one thing is clear—the U.S. must secure stable and diversified sources of rare earth minerals to protect supply chains and maintain global competitiveness. "Supply chains don't exist without rare earth minerals—without them, there are no semiconductors, no AI, no clean energy solutions, and no advanced defense systems," said Lisa Anderson, MBA, CSCP, CLTD , President of LMA Consulting Group, Inc ., and recognized supply chain expert. "We hope that ...

Much of this can be avoided if board members aggressively monitor the overall health of the company they are obliged to advise. What are the early signs of impending disaster? How do boards best respond? When a company is headed for trouble, all stakeholders share the adde...
