  • The Visegrad Group – as NATO disintegrates, Poland steps up

    George Rebane A little noticed rearrangement of Europe’s security apparatus will have a great impact on how ‘old Europe’ will finally react to its historical threats from the east (Russia) and south (Islam).  NATO had the con on defending Europe against international communism (USSR) during the Cold War.  With the collapse of the USSR and…

    George Rebane - Global warming solutions are no solutions- How Democrats plant to beat Repubs again in 2012- The American intifada The hilarity or tears, take your pick, on the entire issue of global warming just don’t stop.  Given that any of the AGW propaganda happens to be true, the cost effectiveness of attempting to stop it with…

  • Sharia Creep – while we’re not paying attention (updated 18may2011)

    George Rebane One way to deconstruct a nation-state is to have its citizens divided into cohorts each answerable to a different set of laws.  The Islamic settlements in Europe are on their way to such a legal construct.  Great Britain already has a Sharia dual in its legal system to which Muslims are bound and…

  • Our Students Need You

    George Rebane [This is the submitted form of my May column in the 14may11 Union (here).] The classroom format of teaching requires that students are in a more or less tight group as far as progress and learning ability are concerned.  The larger the class, the less chance the teacher has to bring along the…

  • An Eerie Feeling re the Great Divide

    George Rebane Is the Great Divide already under way?  RR readers are familiar with the Great Divide discussion in these pages (RR search ‘great divide’).  The basis for the idea of a structural change in these United States is an old one, one that is provided for by our Constitution, and one that was in…

  • On the Road to Denver (updated 8may2011)

    George Rebane We are on our way to visit our month-old great-granddaughter Lucy Pearl in Denver.  On the outward bound we chose ‘The Loneliest Road’, better known as US50, out of Reno.  It is a wonderful way to re/introduce yourself to some of the most picturesque country in this beautiful land.  The route took us…
