The new technology falls under the somewhat loose term "weapons based on new physical principles." The grouping includes armaments that employ physical processes and phenomena not generally used in modern weapons. Laser and sonic weapons are among other examples of such technology. According to the OPK representative, the brand-new Russian system is as yet unrivaled. “This is a completely new type of weapon, which has no analogues in our country, and I daresay, in the world." The announcement came during the ‘Arms High-tech’ military exhibition currently taking place in Armenia. The state-of-the-art system is capable of disabling various types of targets without using the traditional rounds or shells. Instead, the weapon uses ‘directed energy.’ "It conducts indirect physical impact on the on-board equipment of aircraft or drones and neutralizes precision-guided weapons," RIA quotes the OPK representative as saying. The weapon was for the first time presented to Russian military officials in September this year during a closed performance at the annual military expo ‘Army 2016’ outside Moscow.

The US is working on numerous projects of non-conventional weapons, including radio, electronic, infrared and laser ones. “We have electronic warfare capability – we probably do not have the capacity we need now,” Breedlove noted. In April this year, Russia’s Radio-Electronic Technologies Concern (KRET) announced it has started trials of a tactical electromagnetic combat complex fully integrated with the latest air-defense systems. The system is designed to suppress any existing and prospective airborne electronic equipment, making it impossible for the aircraft and satellites to proceed with their missions.
It is best that all this is known. The more formidable one's opponent, the more circumspect one ought to be about attacking him.
I recently moved to a town with a very small parish and our good priest and the parishoners are making a point of praying the rosary together for the month of October. There are also plans for a celebration for several months leading up to the 100th year celebration of Fatima. He keeps inviting everyone in the parish to participate. Such a good, holy priest......there have to be many hidden in small parishes like him.

About Those Unthinking, Backward Catholics … (6456) BY ARCHBISHOP CHARLES J. CHAPUT, OFM CAP.10/13/2016 Comments (16) Archbishop Charles Chaput of Philadelphia – CNA/Daniel Ibáñez Back in 2008, in the weeks leading up to the Obama-McCain presidential election, two young men visited me in Denver. They were from Catholics United, a group describing itself as committed to social-justice issues. They voiced great concern at the manipulative skill of Catholic agents for the Republican Party. And they hoped my brother bishops and I would resist identifying the Church with single-issue and partisan (read: abortion) politics. It was an interesting experience. Both men were obvious flacks for the Obama campaign and the Democratic Party — creatures of a political machine, not men of the Church; less concerned with Catholic teaching than with its influence. And presumably (for them), bishops were dumb enough to be used as tools, or at least prevented from helping the other side. Yet these two young men not only equaled but surpassed their Republican cousins in the talents of servile partisan hustling. Thanks to their work, and activists like them, American Catholics helped to elect an administration that has been the most stubbornly unfriendly to religious believers, institutions, concerns and liberty in generations. I never saw either young man again. The cultural damage done by the current White House has — apparently — made courting America’s bishops unnecessary. But bad can always get worse. I’m thinking, of course, of the contemptuously anti-Catholic emails exchanged among members of the Clinton Democratic presidential campaign team and released this week by WikiLeaks. A sample: Sandy Newman, president of Voices for Progress, emailed John Podesta, now the head of Hillary Clinton’s campaign, to ask about whether “the bishops opposing contraceptive coverage” could be the tinder for a revolution. “There needs to be a Catholic Spring, in which Catholics themselves demand the end of a middle ages [sic] dictatorship,” Newman writes. Of course, Newman added, “This idea may just reveal my total lack of understanding of the Catholic Church, the economic power it can bring to bear against nuns and priests who count on it for their maintenance.” Still, he wondered, how would one “plant the seeds of a revolution”? John Podesta replied, “We created Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good to organize for a moment like this ... likewise Catholics United” (emphasis added). Another Clinton-related email, from John Halpin of the Center for American Progress, mocks Catholics in the so-called conservative movement, especially converts: “They must be attracted to the systematic thought and severely backwards gender relations and must be totally unaware of Christian democracy.” In a follow-up, he adds, “They can throw around ‘Thomistic’ thought and ‘subsidiarity’ and sound sophisticated because no one knows what ... they’re talking about.” On the evening these WikiLeaks emails were released, I received the following angry email myself, this one from a nationally respected (non-Catholic) attorney experienced in church-state affairs: “I was deeply offended by the [Clinton team] emails, which are some of the worst bigotry by a political machine I have seen. [A] church has an absolute right to protect itself when under attack as a faith and church by civil political forces. That certainly applies here. ... “Over the last eight years, there has been strong evidence that the current administration, with which these people share values, has been very hostile to religious organizations. Now there is clear proof that this approach is deliberate and will accelerate if these actors have any continuing, let alone louder, say in government. “These bigots are actively strategizing how to shape Catholicism not to be Catholic or consistent with Jesus’ teachings, but to be the ‘religion’ they want. They are, at the very core, trying to turn religion to their secular view of right and wrong consistent with their politics. This is fundamentally why the Founders left England and demanded that government not have any voice in religion. Look where we are now. We have political actors trying to orchestrate a coup to destroy Catholic values, and they even analogize their takeover to a coup in the Middle East, which amplifies their bigotry and hatred of the Church. I had hoped I would never see this day — a day like so many dark days in Eastern Europe that led to the death of my [Protestant minister] great-grandfather at the hands of communists who also hated and wanted to destroy religion.” Of course it would be wonderful for the Clinton campaign to repudiate the content of these ugly WikiLeaks emails. All of us backward-thinking Catholics who actually believe what Scripture and the Church teach would be so very grateful. In the meantime, a friend describes the choice facing voters in November this way: a vulgar, boorish lout and disrespecter of women, with a serious impulse-control problem; or a scheming, robotic liar with a lifelong appetite for power and an entourage riddled with anti-Catholic bigots. In a nation where “choice” is now the unofficial state religion, the menu for dinner is remarkably small. Archbishop Charles Chaput is the archbishop of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
They're bluffing, but it is dangerous brinkmanship. Sadly, it is becoming clearer by the day that the West fully intends to exterminate the Christians of the Middle East in order to achieve whatever it is they consider to be their aims. As a Syrian nun pointed out in recent days, Western media provide mass-coverage of civilians killed by Assad/Russian forces but none whatever of those killed by 'rebel' forces. It also seems to me that there is no real distinction between these latter groups and ISIS. The West and ISIS are one.
Bear in mind that Clinton has already publicly announced that those religious institutions who dare to refuse to assent to her wishes WILL do what they're told.
It is being alleged by the Russians that the US have concocted a secret deal with the Saudis to allow 9,000 ISIS members go free from the siege of Mosul in order to go fight in Syria. Watch that space. If true, we will know that the Obama administration, who will be replicated by Clinton, the destroyer of states, is definitively satanic.
I found a related article by doing a search on "9,000 ISIS members", I have no idea about the reliability of this: http://news.alayham.com/content/us-saudi-plan-let-9000-isis-fighters-walk-free-mosul-–-fight-syria
Catholics United issued a press release in 2008 during the Presidential election campaign. They claimed then to be "a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to promoting the message of justice and the common good found at the heart of the Catholic Social Tradition. This is accomplished through online advocacy and educational activities". "Catholics United Condemns Political Attacks by "Pro-Life" Groups at Meeting of Catholic Bishops Urges "Society for Truth and Justice" and "Operation Rescue" to Abandon Divisive Campaign and Join Growing Movement for Real Solutions to Abortion Washington, D.C. - Catholics United today expressed grave concerns over an ad campaign from the group Society for Truth and Justice and Operation Rescue founder Randall Terry, which urges the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) to deny communion to "pro-abortion politicians," and to condemn Catholics who vote for those same politicians. Catholics United believes the campaign and an affiliated protest - scheduled for Friday, June 13 at the USCCB's meeting in Orlando - constitute both a shameful attempt to use the Catholic sacrament of Communion as a political weapon, and a means of perpetuating decades of the acrimony and division that have prevented real progress toward ending abortions in the U.S. Catholics United further called on the Society for Truth and Justice and Operation Rescue to work with leaders from across the ideological and political spectrum to craft real solutions to the abortion issue. A growing body of evidence - including a Catholics United study using data from Kansas and an upcoming 50-state study by Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good - suggests that providing economic and social supports for pregnant women and families are the most effective ways to prevent abortions. "Many of these organizations' supporters are undoubtedly motivated by a profound and commendable desire to preserve and protect human life at all stages," said Chris Korzen, executive director of Catholics United and co-author of A Nation for All: How the Catholic Vision of the Common Good Can Save America from the Politics of Division. "Unfortunately, the leaders of these organizations are pursing strategies that are counterproductive to their stated objectives. This type of political rhetoric and campaign intervention is directly responsible for many of the failed policies of the last decade that have proved to be a disaster - by all reasonable measures - for human life and dignity." The ad campaign and USCCB protest are eerily reminiscent of a 2004 concerted effort by the Republican Party and far right Catholic political organizations to convince Catholics that Senator John Kerry's position on abortion rendered him unfit for their vote. Although theologically inaccurate, this well-funded and well-organized campaign may have been the decisive factor in securing President Bush's win in Ohio. "It's time to move beyond the failed policies of the past and address the real threats to the common good: war, poverty, and lack of health care and education, the environment, and our dire economic situation," said Korzen. "It's also time to stop using the abortion issue to divide voters and to start bringing Americans together around common ground solutions. The Society for Truth and Justice and Operation Rescue's action are bad for Catholics, bad for the unborn, and bad for America." Is there really all that much difference between what they were advocating in 2008 and the approach adopted by the current leadership in the Church? I would be very surprised if the soon to be Cardinal Cupich makes any statement condemning these attempts to disrupt Christ's Church.
Maybe it's just me being an old history major and looking for these stories or perhaps there is an up tick of "discoveries" verifying our Judeo-Christian Heritage at the same time that the godless PC Elites and their current Islamic allies are attempting to destroy it!??

Fatima sez: "Just another distraction from the peace that God desires. Best not to pay attention to these things." Yes Fatima! It most certainly is a satanic distraction but the time is past for ignoring the enemy and the "Smoke of Satan" that has entered all aspects of our lives ... INCLUDING The Church!! We are in THE MESS we are in because we sat in the Pews .. SILENT ... or voted with our feet ... when OUR CHURCH was hi-jacked by Lavender Marxists .... and WORSE .... after Vatican II. As old Mary Lease of the Grange Movement used to say: "It's time to raise less corn and more Hell". It appears that The Storm is upon us! Perhaps if The Faithful had Raised Hell 40-50 years ago, The Lord would not have to now GOD SAVE ALL HERE!!
YES!! Time to RISE! I'm thinking about forming "The Razorback Provisional Wing of The Irish Republican Army" It's good and critical to keep our sense of humor ... always .... but Gang!! ....

Nuclear war 'IMMINENT' as Russia tells citizens to find out where the closest bunkers are NUCLEAR war could be imminent as Russia told its citizens to urgently prepare for a devastating radioactive conflict as relations with the West stoop to their lowest since the Cold War. A terrifying Russian television broadcast explicitly told civilians to find out where their nearest bomb shelter is and repeatedly asked viewers if they were ready for nuclear war. One apocalyptic broadcast told viewers on Moscow's state-owned TV channel NTV: "If it should one day happen, every one of you should know where the nearest bomb shelter is. It’s best to find out now." .... Aggressive posturing from Russia in recent weeks has seen the state force 40 million of its citizens to take part in a massive defence drill to prepare them for a nuclear holocaust. Russia’s military announced it would run the country-wide drill in preparation of a large-scale war. http://www.express.co.uk/news/world...-bunker-fallout-shelter-Syria-Bashar-al-Assad ======================================================================== And then we have this possible Natan "Gog security breach" by Obama that could be used as the grand excuse for lighting the fuse...(and people thought that this Nov. was outside the timing possibilities!): Exclusive: Obama, aides expected to weigh Syria military options on Friday ..... One set of options includes direct U.S. military action such as air strikes on Syrian military bases, munitions depots or radar and anti-aircraft bases, said one official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. This official said one danger of such action is that Russian and Syrian forces are often co-mingled, raising the possibility of a direct confrontation with Russia that Obama has been at pains to avoid. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-mideast-crisis-syria-options-exclusiv-idUSKCN12D2B2
