For now, before a long drawn out sermon on why making
sharp and sharper looks into unexploded ordinance in Laos right through here,
might be a wise move, given that the frequency of injuries is receiving global
media attention at lightning speeds, the USA's position on world peace today
might be presented a little differently than roughly a half century ago, and of
course, consistency across the board an ideal- this will briefly, very briefly
hit on the subject, that concerns over the status of what is going on in the
region that surrounds and includes modern day Laos is stark and logical to
have.
Social media tools like live-streaming, translation
while live-streaming, and cameras abound, are affecting the dynamics of how
information is circulating, even in less industrialized areas.
The USA emerging from a government shutdown within
recent weeks, is not the only nation that suffers from the woeful repercussions
of narcotic production. Narcotics that
emanate from the Laos and Myanmar region is a key subject. The flower itself, in opium, as we all know
is a but a flower. It is the abusive
manipulation of the flower that is the beginning of sin. Becoming increasingly well known, is that
regions around Afghanistan, and south of the Mexico border, are not the only
locations where there are flowers and plants that drugs are derived from.
On an, as a matter of fact basis, a number of news and
narcotic analyst reports are surfacing that opium fields in Myanmar are a major
source of what eventually turns into drugs showing up in the streets of
Australia and China, to name a few.
How does this relate to government shutdown in the
USA?, some of it has to do with tying together narcotic trafficking through
borders besides the one near Texas and Mexico, as obvious and reiterated, South
American countries known as big exporters of narcotics are not the only ones
growing the source crop, and that other locations besides these are converting
the crop into the dangerous lure and then lethal commodity. It is well within the realm of possibility,
that drugs could be attempted to be brought in to the US through locations
other than the hackneyed Texas-Mexico where proposals for borderwalls would
stand. The main matter is immigration,
perhaps a rebut, then ask, why the pressure is so high to immigrate, to escape,
somewhere in some of the answers is domination that has involvement in drugs.
This is no fairy tale, to clog up the Internet with key
words the get query results, upon any doubt, in respectful tone, simply check
the number of narcotic gang related deaths in numerous countries from Central
America and work southward, and check recent United Nations reports on global
narcotic distribution.
The whole circle.
Going back in time to the Nixon years, news reports
have it that explosives were used, in Laos.
Videos of very recent incidents are going viral enough to be described
as popular, such as of a three year old boy who had unexploded ordinance affect
him to where he is now for intents and purposes blind.
At the same time, there are news reports of aggressive
and hostile groups, that can be escalated to blandly being designated 'possible
terrorist groups' that exist over in the South East Asia region. Trafficking of the narcotics keeps up, coming
out the region. Child armies keeps
going. The general attitude of making
money is more important than the hurt upon those less powerful through drugs, is a
regular climate in some social circles, today, there in that very same region
that was next door to Vietnam, to which the War decades back takes it name.
Nevertheless, referent videos, whether true, untrue, or
partially true, are perceivable as putting bad lights on the US.
It is not necessary to digress into all the vagaries of
all the potential crime that comes in to the US through the Canadian border, in
this writing, especially considering all that Canada has to contend with to
keep criminality out. And there are
other ways, and more ways, that criminally savvy individuals are continually
advancing methods to sneak drugs around.
Meanwhile, among stories that just cropped up,
alongside the bitterness of drug related activities of Laos and Myanmar,
translated from Vietnamese:
"Russia developed a new missile system to deal
with the US in 2021
February 5, 2019
Russia said it would race to develop two ground missile
systems before 2021 to deal with the US withdrawal from the Mid-Range Nuclear
Forces Treaty.
According to Reuters , President Vladimir Putin
suspended the Treaty of Mid-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) signed with the US
during the Cold War, which banned two nations from deploying surface-to-air
missiles. Short and medium range in Europe.
Moscow and Washington accused each other of violating
the treaty and Putin said Russia had decided to act after the US withdrew.
Washington makes it clear that it plans to begin the
process of research, development and design of new missile systems and that
Moscow will do the same, the Russian president said.
The Russian army will begin to develop ground-based launch
systems for the payroll ship of Kalibr, the cruise ship with the long-range
supersonic missiles with the lowest travel speed. 5 times the speed of sound.
Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu on February 5 instructed
the military to develop new systems. Mr. Shoigu said he wanted the system to be
finalized next year to be ready for combat in 2021.

That is a roundup for 'hot' news in the press that has
to do with global tension. Of course our
own backyard, pertinently, making certain there is no violent crime in the DC
area, is a standard must.
