Whatever Happened to ISIS in the News?

Not that long ago, news about ISIS was everywhere. But suddenly the controlled media took on a new narrative: "Finally, ISIS is no more, thanks to the American superpower."

Well, no. A new caliph (Abu al-Hussein al-Husseini al-Qurashi) replaced the previous one, and the Islamic State is still at war with the West, recruiting, educating, inspiring, and equipping a worldwide following. Their official magazine, Al-Naba, still proceeds weekly from the Central Media Office of the Islamic State.

For your files and study, the web site thereligionofpeace.com maintains an updated list of ISIS attacks, assassinations and terror killings (476 and counting,) along with other Islamic attacks since 2015. During this time period, there have been a total of 2911 Islamic attacks in 53 countries, in which 27722 people were killed and 26192 injured.

But the new Americans didn’t just reproduce the country they left. They built institutions England didn’t yet have.

Year 1 — a seagoing vessel launched at Medford, 4 July 1631. The shipwrights had been sent out in 1629, ahead of the fleet.
Year 4 — representative government. Elected deputies sitting in the General Court.
Year 6 — Harvard. £400 voted for “a schoale or colledge.”
Year 8 — a printing press, the only one in British North America. Glover died on the voyage out; his widow Elizabeth moved the operation to Cambridge and got it running.
Year 10 — the Bay Psalm Book, the first book printed in America.
Year 11 — the Body of Liberties, read aloud at every General Court.

Big Ag Strikes Again. Check the Ingredients at the Store.

This is the cultural shift we were told would never happen. But 3D-printed fake meat and fish have officially hit American grocery stores. The U.S. retail launch of the PERFECTA brand introduces 3-D-printed meat and seafood to grocery stores across the Northeastern United States.

The packaging DOES NOT disclose that the company’s products are manufactured using 3D-printing technology. Instead, beautiful photos on the packaging make the five products look real and irresistible.
