Re: Revisiting the standard time vs. daylight saving time debate
That works for China, and the US military have been doing it for many decades--they call it Zulu Time. (the same number is called Greenwich time for civilians) Simultaneity for meetings is easier to arrange, and local time is whatever the locals find convenient. One adjusts to using two different re...

Re: USA & Israel launch illegal war on Iran
From my time as an enlisted man when officially we were not shooting at anybody, just 'preparing', I perceived there were two types who stayed and made a career of the military: Very stupid who recognized the formal procedures of the military organization gave them a security and a release from pers...

Re: USA & Israel launch illegal war on Iran
Just a few moments ago I awoke on tv (not live) CinC Trump in the White House explaining his latest war. Among other things, he said this will make certain the Iran will never have nuclear weapons.
