A drone developed by the US Navy has broken its own endurance record by staying in the air for just over 48 hours. The ‘Ion Tiger’ used a new cryogenic tank for the liquid hydrogen fuel feeding its fuel cells to achieve the breakthrough.

Keeping a drone in the air as long as possible is a chief task for a UAV operator, especially in surveillance. One approach is to use fuel that packs a lot of energy for its volume, like hydrocarbons; drones like the MQ-9 Reaper can fly for 30 hours without landing for refueling.   Continue reading “US Navy’s liquid hydrogen drone flies for record 48 hours”

Congressional hearings, White House damage control, endless op-eds, accusations, and defensive denials. Controversy over the events in Benghazi last September took center stage in Washington and elsewhere last week. However, the whole discussion is again more of a sideshow. Each side seeks to score political points instead of asking the real questions about the attack on the US facility, which resulted in the death of US Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans.   Continue reading “What No One Wants to Hear About Benghazi”

19 people were wounded in New Orleans over the weekend when an alleged gang shootout broke out in the middle of a mothers day parade.  three suspects are still at large, and the hunt for them so far has involved similar tactics as those used in Boston.  At this point there is no indication that this was a planned terrorist attack, but regardless, police are still using the full on storm trooper approach that has now become commonplace in the western world.   Continue reading “Police Search Door to Door After Mother’s Day Shooting in New Orleans”

It is time to call out the scumbags who historically have been mostly responsible for promoting gun control legislation in what have been obvious attempts to destroy the Second Amendment. At the forefront of these activities we find that most of these people are Zionist Jews. Even though this is a proven fact, there will undoubtedly be a number of pro-Zionist Hasbara Internet trolls who will cry racism, anti-Semitism and other rubbish to distract people from the obvious. Considering that Jews represent only a small percentage of the American population, why is it that many of the most vocal supporters of gun control just so happen to be Zionist Jews? This is a serious question that needs to be asked as it shows that a small minority of people are attempting to make it increasingly more difficult for the average law abiding American citizen to defend themselves.   Continue reading “Zionist Jews Are At The Forefront Of Advancing Gun Control In The United States”

As with most vaccines, we have been led to believe that a tetanus shot is a necessity to protect us from a supposedly virulent germ that can lead us to our death. When we carefully consider some of the facts on tetanus reported in the medical literature, we find many contradictions, inconsistencies and even falsities in relation to actual facts on the bacteria that produces the neurotoxin. If spores of the bacteria have been found in vast numbers of wounds without producing any tetanus, then why is it considered such a threat at all?   Continue reading “Why You Never Need A Tetanus Vaccine, Regardless of Your Age or Location”

NEW YORK—New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly says he wasn’t surprised about the Boston Marathon bombings—just that they didn’t happen sooner.

“When something like Boston happens, it’s a shock to the public psyche, but not to us,” Kelly said at the Atlantic’s New York Ideas Festival on Tuesday. “We thought something like this would happen sooner—we’ve seen these types of disaffected radicalized young men target us.”   Continue reading “Ray Kelly not surprised about Boston Marathon terror attack”

What is clear today is that his action has forced Israelis – and the rest of the world – to understand that the status quo has a price.
