New Atlanta Vietnam Veterans Business Association Video Sets the Record Straight

The late Harry G. Summers, Jr. (1932-1999), Colonel of Infantry and distinguished faculty member of the Army War College, often called people’s attention to the fact that considerable differences in the treatment of the Vietnam War can be seen in the literature published in academia and that published by the veterans who served during the war. Summers also called attention to the fact that the perspective of the veterans differs considerably among themselves as to the time frame of their involvement and their role.
In addition, academic and media people, tend to lump the whole experience, tactics, and strategies of the war together, when four Presidential administrations were involved. Presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford faced dramatically different situations and applied after some learning curve dramatically different thinking, tactics and strategies subject to increasingly politicized and predictably unwise Congressional limitations.

Nearing the inevitable Sad Consequences
![Nearing the inevitable Sad Consequences](/images/18-08/Nearing-the-inevitable-Sad-Consequences.jpg)
Despite the tremendous propaganda campaign still ongoing in most of the mainstream media and sponsored social media advertising “news,” the war is not going well for Ukraine. Ukrainian armed forces casualties have risen to unsustainable levels. “Fighting to the last Ukrainian” is looking more like reality than a foolish Biden Administration political boast of Ukrainian commitment to the American and NATO proxy war to weaken and destabilize Russia and bring about a Russian regime change suitable to Neo-con American interests. Various casualty estimates—from Macgregor and several others--of Ukrainian KIA and missing are running as high as 500,000. Amputees exceed 50,000. The Ukrainians are literally running out of manpower. The Ukrainians are having to draft—often with extreme coercion--teen-agers, women, and men in their 60s. One 70-year old Ukrainian tank crewmember was captured by the Russians. Civilian casualties have been relatively light for an intensely artillery centered war. According to the United Nations September 2023 report, just short of 10,000 civilian deaths have occurred, and nearly half of them have been in the Russian ethnic oblasts of Donetsk and Lugansk. Ukrainian artillery continues deliberate shelling of civilian business and residential areas there.

Flag of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
On January 11, 2020, I published an article entitled “The Quranic Concept of War.” This was basically a review and analysis of Pakistani Brigadier General S. K. Malik’s 158-page book, published in English in 2015 and entitled, The Quranic Concept of War. Malik’s book had an enthusiastic 25- page forward written by Pakistani Army Chief of Staff Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq who, following a 1977 coup had made himself President of Pakistan in 1978. Zia died in a plane crash in 1988.

Deadly Storm Clouds Rising

While America Sleeps
![Deadly Storm Clouds Rising](/images/18-08/Deadly-Storm-Clouds-Rising.jpg)
It has been 248 years since the American Colonies declared their independence from Great Britain. Through the awesome Providence of God’s favor, He raised us up from insignificance and brought us through many hardships, dangers, and struggles to become the most powerful, most prosperous, and most freedom-blessed nation in the world. We have spent our tears and blood in this continuous struggle, but it was the Lord of Hosts who guided us and planted and nurtured our determination to persevere. We have raised mighty armies and mighty industries, and achieved spectacular technological advances, but it was always though His kind Providences that we succeeded in our building and in our victories. It has always been His invisible but invincible Arm that has defended us and brought confusion and defeat upon our enemies.
Will a nation that turns its back upon its God-given blessings and protection from its enemies do so without consequences? Will a nation that turns its back upon God’s Word and teachings continue to prosper? Will a nation that openly defies God’s standards long enjoy peace and security? In his 1978 Commencement address at Harvard University, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn summed up how the Russian people had fallen into what turned out to be over 70 years of oppression, suffering, and brutality under Soviet Communism, in which some 60 million people were “swallowed up:”

Shattering Palestinian Political Myths
- By Mike Scruggs
- Category: Mike Scruggs' Column
Truth versus Palestinian Propaganda
Four major political myths govern most Palestinian propaganda justifying Jihad against Israel and the Jews.
Jihad is Arabic for “struggle” and in Islamic theology primarily means Holy War against all unbelievers to establish the supremacy of Muslims, Islam, and Islamic Law over them. Jihad is a major Islamic doctrine and accounts for over 31 percent of the text of the three most holy and revered foundational documents of Islam: the Quran, Hadith, and Sira. The Hadith are the collections of Muhammad’s sayings , and the Sira is the collection of Muhammad’s actions and biography. Sharia (Islamic Law) derives from these three. Winston Churchill often referred to Islam as Mohammedanism, because the Quran allegedly came from Allah through the Angel Gabriel to Muhammad, and the Hadith and Sira (together called the Sunna) are the traditions and teachings of Muhammad. Muhammad is therefore the supreme prophetic source of Islam and knowledge of Allah. Jihad is obligatory duty for all who are able to participate.
