The Secret War in Laos February 6, 1967
On February 5, 1967, a USAF Forward Air Controller flying a single engine Cessna O-1F Birddog spotter aircraft, call sign Nail 65, was hit by antiaircraft fire. Nail 65 was coordinating an attack by two Navy A-4 Skyhawks on an underwater bridge and North Vietnamese trucks parked under camouflage in the mountainous Mu Gia Pass on the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Nail 65 pilot was Captain Lucius “Lamar” Heiskell from an O-1 detachment of the 23rd Tactical Air Support Squadron positioned with the Air Commando Wing at Nakhon Phanom Royal Thai Air Base (RTAB). Realizing his O-1 was too badly damaged to escape the mountainous area of western North Vietnam, Heiskell managed to climb to 1,000 feet above the terrain and then bailed out. This was reported immediately by an accompanying Nail O-1 wingman to Crown, the C-130 communications center. Successful bail out from an O-1 was actually rare because their combat missions were usually close to the ground. Heiskell’s bail out was successful, but he had to spend the night on the ground, evading North Vietnamese Army (NVA) searchers, but was able to contact Crown and other USAF aircraft sparingly when he believed it was safe. First hiding his parachute, he hid himself in a “crack” and was almost walked over by searchers several times.

“Democracy gives every man the right to be his own oppressor!” - James Russell Lowell
“The world is weary of statesmen whom democracy has degraded into politicians”
Benjamin Disraeli, speech before a joint session of the U.S. Congress in 1935.
“The adoption of Democracy as a form of Government by all European nations is fatal to good Government, to liberty, to law and order, to respect for authority, and to religion, and must eventually produce a STATE OF CHAOS from which a new world tyranny will arise.” - The Duke of Northumberland, England, 1931
WHY ARE SO MANY “INFLUENCERS” CONFUSED?
The Mud Problem
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
The mud problem is based on a paper recently published in the Creation Research Society Quarterly entitled “The Clay Consolidation Problem and Its Implications for Flood Geology Models” by Scott L. Dunn. The paper claims that it would take too long for the mud laid down during the Genesis Flood to turn to the rock we observe.
The key to his calculations is the coefficient of hydraulic conductivity which shows how fast water can be removed from solid material. The tenancy however for it to increase with particle size. This is one way in which he's assuming normal erosion conditions. However, the conditions of the Flood would have tended to erode out larger particles possibly increasing this factor.
Do We Want a Federal Constitution in Wax or Granite?

- By Jim S. Brooks - Roebuck, SC
All the United States Supreme Court cases applying selections from the Bill of Rights to the states under the 14th amendment are based on legal ease, smoke and mirrors; not the “explicit” jurisdictional wording of the Constitution nor of The Bill of Rights-especially those in regard to religion: (a) there is absolutely no jurisdiction over religion granted to the federal administrative government at all in the Constitution of the United States and that issue was recognized on the state and federal level for near 160 years; nor, is there any jurisdiction granted at all to the federal administrative government of ANY fundamental right listed in the Bill of Rights. (b) actually, at state ratification of the Bill of Rights, the complete document was absolutely barred from any application to the states at all, just the administrative federal government.
Christian Resistance to Tyranny and the Right of Revolution
- Details
- By Winston McCuen - South Carolina
In this world, which is the best of all possible created worlds, the peoples of the nations, by Divine Providence, generally get either the liberty they deserve, or the tyranny they tolerate and therefore deserve. As a rule, God reserves liberty for moral and intellectual virtue, and He reserves slavery for ignorance, sloth, and depravity.
When churches professing the name of Christ are worldly, governments are tyrannical. And when tyrannical civil government rules over worldly churches, pastors professing Christ often, under social influence and pressure, or from a sinful fear of man, become mere hirelings instead of shepherds of the flock.
I'm Black, I'm a Woman and I Support Donald Trump – Here's Why
- Details
- By Day Gardner - National Black Pro-Life Union
Lately, I have received inquiries from liberal media addicts and a few Christians asking me to explain, how, as a Christian, I can support Donald J. Trump for President.
Though my reasons are my own, I hope what I have to say will shed light on my opinions, at the very least.
Yes, I am a born-again believer in JESUS CHRIST as Lord and Savior, and a staunch supporter of former President Trump. I endorsed him early in 2016, 2020 and again for 2024.
When a person says Trump has had several wives and is a womanizer, I am reminded of the Biblical David (2 Samuel 11,12). David was an adulterer who impregnated the wife of an elite soldier in his own army and then ensured her husband would be killed in battle. Even though King David was an adulterer and murderer (by proxy) God still chose him to fulfil the covenant. He is one of the greatest leaders of God's people in the Old Testament.
America: Drifting Towards Venezuela?
- Details
- By Joseph M. Bianchi
Now that the elections in Venezuela are over, the anticipated results are final: President Nicolas Maduro has won. Well, that is, he claims to have won, but actual results say otherwise. Reports from the various polling areas say the opposition candidates, Edmundo Gonzalez and Corina Machado, won—and by a landslide, some saying by a 70% margin.
Of course, Maduro denied this, and the police and army were called out to “bring order” back to the country. The Strongman refuses to budge, and by all indications, he isn’t going anywhere soon.
So much for a South American country run by a dictator. Aren’t we glad we live in America where something like this could never happen?
