Siege of Jadotville on Netflix.

I know the movie is a couple of years old but I finally got around to seeing it today.

It was well cast, well acted, and overall a very good movie, if you are a military history buff like me.

It portrays the Irish soldiers who were part of the UN Peace Keeping forces very well.  It also demonstrates just how much of a piece of shit the United Nations really is.

It’s not an epic war movie, but has as very We Were Soldiers feel to it.

I highly recommend it, especially if you have an interest in the African brush wars (technically the Congo Crisis is not recognized as a brush war, but has all the hallmarks of one so should be grouped with them)  or just want to see the United Nations come off looking shitty.

When newspapers are trying to do a cavalry charge from their mummified moral high horse against the violence “incited” from the President:

To counter what it describes as President Donald Trump’s “dirty war against the free press,” The Boston Globe is urging newspapers across the country to take a coordinated stand against his anti-media attacks.
And scores have already answered the call to battle.
The Globe issued an appeal last week to editorial boards nationwide, urging them to publish editorials this Thursday that lambast the “dangers of the administration’s assault on the press.”
On Saturday, Marjorie Pritchard, the Globe’s deputy editorial page editor, told CNN that more than 100 publications ― ranging from big city papers to small weeklies ― have committed to participate.

More Than 100 Newspapers Are Uniting To Fight Trump’s ‘War On The Press’.

And the only violence against the press comes from your political side and your favorite sons and daughters:

And yes, fans of the president have called the press all kinds of names, ridiculed them and flipped the bird and laugh at them during live show, but it is has been consistently the Left winged Antifa the ones attacking anybody trying to cover their antics.

Dear Journalists: In case you have not noticed, your controllers have decided you are to be cannon fodder. And since the “Alt Right” does not seem to attack you, your blood will be spilled by the minions of Antifa.
Thank you. 
The Left.

This is genius. In order to advocate in court that the digital code can be restricted, they will have to make the same case for this book since the content in both is the same.

Ben Shapiro offered to donate  $10,000 to a charity of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s choice if she debated him.

To this day, the closest thing she has had to a media challenge was on Firing Line on PBS, which started by heaping praise on her.  That interview lobbed softballs at her.  Since then, she’s appeared on late night comedy news shows that barely amounted to tee-ball level questions, just letting her spew out platitudes showcasing her bubbly personality.

Ben Shapiro would take her to task and mop the floor with her.  She knows it.

So she responded with this:

Just like catcalling, I don’t owe a response to unsolicited requests from men with bad intentions.

And also like catcalling, for some reason they feel entitled to one. pic.twitter.com/rsD17Oq9qe

Understand what she did here.

If managed to ask Stalin or Che (or any other socialist) a question that made them look bad, you would have been taken out and shot.

Dead.  Done.

This really is the social media social justice warrior equivalent.  She accused him of sexual impropriety.  That is a death sentence in the SJW world.  If that happens to you, you become a pariah.  Your name is scrubbed from your accomplishments, you are kicked out of school, you lose your job, you are unpersoned.

This was not flippant.  If Ben Shapiro was a man working for Vox, he’d be gone and Vox would be apologizing for ever hiring him.

Ben is not a Liberal on social media, so this won’t do the damage to him that she wanted it to, but the intent was clearly there.

She was challenged and she sentenced Shapiro to be executed for it.  She is authentically a socialist.

The Florida sheriff leading a state commission on the Parkland high school massacre says there were multiple opportunities to stop Nikolas Cruz during the attack – if only someone had confronted him with a gun.
Sheriff Bob Gualtieri of Pinellas County, citing surveillance footage taken from inside Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, told a New York Times reporter Thursday that Cruz had to stop firing his AR-15 rifle several times in order to reload.

That is not going to be liked much by the Intelligentsia that told us somebody with a gun shooting at the little ass would have not made a difference or make it even worse. . I checked all the major local TV stations and the Miami Herald and not visible in their front pages.

I wonder why.
