Probably the most dreaded six words in modern history, and how “I want to apply for Asylum” has changed the face of our nation, words that have been misused, used to infiltrate and gain access, basically building a 5th column of enemies ready to pounce when called to do so.

War tactics can be as subtle as letting in enemies from other countries, thinking that these oh so innocent migrants only want a better life;  in reality they are setting up enemy positions ready to fight and kill you when you least expect it.    Continue reading “I Want To Apply For Asylum – Is This What Our Founding Fathers Had In Mind?”

President Donald Trump on Monday evening proudly asserted that he is a “nationalist” — a designation some of his fiercest critics have previously wielded against him as an attack on what they deem nativist policy pursuits by his administration.

“You know, they have a word, it sort of became old-fashioned. It’s called a nationalist,” Trump said at a campaign event in Houston, where he rallied voters to support Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) in November’s midterm elections.   Continue reading “Trump: ‘I’m a nationalist’”

fter the Daesh attack on the city of Palmyra, China renounced the traditional “silk route” (Bagdad, Palmyra, Damas-Tiro). An alternative trail had been envisaged, no longer across Syria but Turkey. This has also been abandoned.

During antiquity there was also a secondary route through Petra (Jordan) and Alexandra (Egypt). In the final analysis, the new Silk route should pass through Jordan then bifurcate with one branch leading to Egypt and the other in the direction of Israel.   Continue reading “The Silk Route will pass through Jordan, Egypt and Israel”

We receive the following email from a reader regarding posting From the Trenches articles on Facebook:

Facebook is removing ALL posts that are shared from The Trenches that are on personal FB pages already (two that I am aware of) AND they won’t allow ANY reports from FTTWR to be shared on FB. I thought I was banned from both pages but I don’t think it’s just us.

Just a heads up.

It is probably for the same reason they build cages for protest areas five mile from where the event is occurring.   Continue reading “Badge of Honor”
