Patrick Wintour, The Guardian: The far shorter Middle East war has rapidly revealed the strategic weakness of US firepower in an interconnected world. In scale, of course, the current conflict does not match the Vietnam war, which went on for years, led to the deaths of 58,220 US soldiers, and is often perceived as the totemic and unmatchable example of US hubris. By comparison with the Vietnam odyssey, Iran feels more like a day trip. But in terms of consequence, it is still possible that the "excursion" will prove to be the bigger geopolitical turning point for the unrivalled superpower, the moment when the US will have to concede it mishandled a war not just because it had no convincing battle plan, but also no grand strategy to match how the contemporary world works.

The Church often footdrags with the best/worst of them. But, boy, did they move to shut down this guy.

Cardinal McElroy in his statement said Msgr. Rossettis remarks "gravely undermine the Church's very precise teaching on the devil, demons and exorcism." The cardinal also criticized the St. Michael Centers "recent use of social media," though the statement did not offer any specifics beyond that.

In a statement after the news broke, Msgr. Rossetti said he was "saddened" by the archdioceses decision.

"I ask forgiveness for any ways that I have not been faithful to the teachings of the Church's Magisterium, particularly in the cited video on aliens and the demonic'," he said.

"Americans will be less safe": alarm as Trump picks loyalist as intelligence chief
www.theguardian.com
"Donald Trump's decision to appoint Bill Pulte as the acting director of national intelligence has set off alarm bells in Washington, as a staunch Trump loyalist with little government experience who has shown an eagerness to retaliate against the president's political rivals will now sit atop the US intelligence apparatus."
