F. Roger Devlin reviews Lynn & Becker's National Intelligence and Its Consequences
National IQ correlates at .97 with educational attainment at age 15. The correlation with educational expenditure, on the other hand, is a negligible .19.
theoccidentalobserver.net/2019/05/28/nat…
A nation’s IQ correlates negatively with its average temperature. But the most impressive inverse correlation is with a country’s estimated temperature during the Würm glaciation between 30,000 and 11,700 years ago: -.87.
This supports the theory that higher intelligence evolved in the European and Northeast Asian peoples because of its survival benefits in colder latitudes during that most recent ice age.

"There will be no way to increase Jewish pluralism in the Jewish state; no way to enact civil marriage or civil unions; no reform to the conversion system to deal with intermarriage either; and no reform to the provision of religious service.
jpost.com/Israel-Electio…
This will affect not only religious life in Israel, but may further aggravate and inflame relations between the Jewish state and the Diaspora – particularly the Jews of North America, which chafes at the lack of equality for progressive Judaism in the country."
The most ethnonationalist Jews in Israel are firmly in charge. Selling Israel as a democracy in the image of the West rather than a medieval theocracy will be an uphill battle--but the Israel Lobby will be doing just that.

Andrew Joyce: On Liam Neeson and the Philosophy of the White Vigilante
"In a blurring of stark individualism and concern for the group as a whole, these characters often live (and behave) at the margins of the society they go on to protect.
They possess an open disdain for social permissiveness, bureaucracy, and procedure, and, finally, they are the spartan, right wing existentialist practitioners of a violent urban vigilantism."
Overlooked is the stark reality that sexual access to females, often in the context of rape, has been a perennial fons et origo for group conflict, and certainly for vigilantism. Historically women have been regarded as the vessels of familial, communal, and group honor

JS Tobin: Many of the protesters have been carrying signs and chanting slogans calling Macron the “whore of the Jews” and “the Jews’ puppet.”
What, you may ask, do the Jews have to do with French economic policy?
jns.org/opinion/the-ad…
The correct answer is nothing. But to those wearing the yellow vests, Jews are apparently synonymous with the “establishment”—the unseen and anonymous power-brokers they feel are manipulating their lives and destroying their country."
In fact, Jews are a wealthy, powerful component of the French elite. See, e.g., @GuiDurocher's review of Anne Kline's La France LICRAtisée and Le CRIF: Un lobby au cœur de la République

<Thread> I often talk about civ-mil gaps, but the hardest gap for me to talk about is the sacrifice gap. It’s hard to quantify, and it’s personal. But in The Fighters @cjchivers says a lot of things I haven’t been able to express or that I’ve struggled to talk about for years. 1/
I’ve tweeted about this book before, but when I did, I hadn’t actually read the last chapter. It’s the most powerful, & I really think it’s the best non-fiction book about the wars I’ve read. So, a few bourbons in, I wanna talk about why it’s so great. 2/
The book tells the story of 5 service members from different ranks & services who fought in Iraq & Afghanistan. It traces their lives over more than a decade and, in so doing, it tells the story of the wars from the perspective of some of us who fought it. 3/

#FísicaThreadBr [Sou uma Física INVEJOSA?] Hoje vim falar sobre a inveja na Graduação. Pelo menos eu senti isso mais forte durante a minha. #CiênciaBr #ciencianobr
Eu lembro que alguns dos meus professores instigavam a competição de notas entre alunos, faziam questão de dizer a nota dos outros em voz alta e até mesmo humilhar os que não tinham a nota “tão alta”. Outros professores batem no peito pra dizer: comigo ninguém passa.
Naquela época quando eu era ingênua e não tinha aprendido a me impor, ainda não tinha mais de 10 anos na academia, achava normal. Normal pq eu só tinha aquilo como parâmetro. Então eu fui percebendo que eu sentia inveja de alguns colegas. Eu me pegava perguntando: quanto tirou?

1. And now I'm going to tell a story. Another false flag. This time is to force @POTUS not to take the US army out of #Syria.
They already have a lot of experience (8 years) to make chemical attacks to accuse the Syrian government.
OH, and they even have a manual.🧐😲🤨

2. ISIS terrorist? 😲Seriously?🤨 Have they investigated? 🤓And they already know who it was? 🧐Super efficient 🙃.

Preliminary reports say at least six people were killed & 19 injured by the explosion. US official: 4 US army Killed & 3 US army wounded.

3. ISIS took responsability?😲Seriously?🤨Have they investigated?🤓They already know who it was? 🧐Super efficient 🙃.

The Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) took responsibility for the attack that reportedly targeted the US-led coalition’s patrol.

#National Security & The #BokoHaram Insurgency: On The Most Pressing Challenges Currently Facing The @HQNigerianArmy's Operations
@HQNigerianArmy 1. None to the exclusion of the other, the operations are as intensely dogged by issues which stem from the human factor ( MANPOWER) as they are majorly constrained by issues of logistics and ewuipment (MATERIEL)
@HQNigerianArmy We shall xray the storied human factor subsequently but let us begin from the area of materiel where we shall be making some revelations that are as in-depth as they are unprecedented...never been broached with such specificty
