For more than three-quarters of a century, the United States has played an outsized, constructive role in the world. To be sure, there have been major errors, including the Vietnam War and the 2003 Iraq War, but the US got it right far more often than not.

TTO – Chiến sự Nga – Ukraine đã chứng minh vai trò quan trọng của vũ khí máy bay không người lái trên chiến trường hiện đại.
Từ chức năng trinh sát ban đầu, loại máy bay này đã biến thành sát thủ tấn công từ trên không và có thể định hình cuộc chiến trong tương lai.
Tại triển lãm hàng không ở Thổ Nhĩ Kỳ vào đầu tháng 9-2022, lần đầu tiên nước chủ nhà đã giới thiệu thế hệ máy bay không người lái (UAV) siêu thanh Bayraktar Kizilelma. UAV mới có tính năng tàng hình, bay gần 980km/h với tốc độ tối đa Mach 1.
Chuyến bay đầu tiên dự kiến được thực hiện vào đầu năm 2023. Đến cuối tháng 9, báo chí Pháp đưa tin Tổng cục Vũ khí Pháp đang thử nghiệm thế hệ UAV mới AVATAR trang bị súng trường tấn công.

[USA] CIVIL WAR IS “ON THE TABLE”: JEFF SHARLET ON THE MARTYRDOM OF ASHLI BABBITT AND WHAT’S TO COME
The Vanity Fair contributing editor discusses his journey among the Jan. 6 cultists, while contributor Willem Marx breaks down Boris Johnson’s downfall.
BY EMILY JANE FOX AND JOE HAGAN
JULY 8, 2022
This week Vanity Fair contributing editor Jeff Sharlet joins Inside the Hive to talk about his journey into the far-right world of January 6 insurrectionists, QAnon-ers, and Trump cultists—who they are, what they’re saying, what they believe, and what their still-growing movement might portend (including the specter of civil war in America). Such a prospect, says Sharlet, is “scarier than it’s ever been.”

What a Nobel laureate’s take on Donald Trump reveals about today
Opinion by Jane Greenway Carr
Updated 1734 GMT (0134 HKT) May 22, 2022, CNN
(CNN) Shortly after Donald Trump was elected President of the United States, Nobel laureate Toni Morrison wrote in The New Yorker: “Unlike any nation in Europe, the United States holds whiteness as the unifying force. Here, for many people, the definition of ‘Americanness’ is color.” Reflecting on efforts — largely by White men — to define themselves by sustaining that poisonous definition, Morrison argues that those “who are prepared to abandon their humanity out of fear of black men and women, suggest the true horror of lost status.”

A Peace That Couldn’t Last – Negotiating the Paris Accords on Vietnam
ADST – Signed on January 27, 1973, the Paris Peace Accords were intended to finally end the Vietnam War, which had cost the lives of thousands of American soldiers, not to mention the millions of Vietnamese civilians who were killed, injured, or displaced. Initially, the Accords were negotiated in secret by National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger and Le Duc Tho, the lead North Vietnamese negotiator. These secret negotiations took place over the course of five years in Paris, from 1968 to 1973, but it was only in the early 70’s that any real progress was made.

Khi sách bị cấm ở trường học
TRÚC ANH 25/2/2022 6:10 GMT+7
TTCT – Nhà tù kiểm duyệt sách đã đành, ngay ở chốn học đường, chuyện cấm sách cũng đã liên tục diễn ra trong hơn một thế kỷ qua ở Mỹ, nhân danh bảo vệ trẻ em. Làn sóng đó đã trở lại và vẫn tiếp diễn, từ cuối 2021 đến nay.
Tại Tennessee, nơi những quyển sách văn học hư cấu bị vùi trong lửa, hội đồng trường học quận McMinn hồi cuối tháng 1 yêu cầu cấm Maus, hồi ký dưới dạng truyện tranh về nạn diệt chủng Holocaust của tác giả Art Spiegelman, lưu hành trong trường học. Các quan chức giáo dục McMinn cho rằng họ không phản đối chuyện dạy về thảm sát, nhưng những lời nói tục tĩu, cảnh khỏa thân, hình ảnh bạo lực và mô tả cảnh tự tử trong Maus “quá người lớn để được dùng trong nhà trường”.
