Breaking News Alert 04-16

🔺26 December 2016: Today India successfully test-launched for the fourth and final time the Agni-V (Agni-5), a nuclear-capable, road-mobile ICBM. The Agni-V is a three-stage, solid propellant nuclear weapon delivery system that has been indigenously developed by India's Defense Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). 



Agni-V has a widely acknowledged range of over 5000km (3100mi), with Chinese officials claiming that this figure is under-reported; that a more accurate reporting of its range would be in excess of 8000km (4970mi). Agni-V boasts multiple independent re-entry vehicle (MIRV) warhead technology.

  1. I have been mulling over the approaching new year, the Presidential inauguration, our new administration in the United States and the approaching wars and chaos in the world. And I thought about the last time the world was in chaos and World War was approaching. And then I thought about the song American Anthem, which reminds me of my 90+ year old father who served in the invasion of the south of France. What with Sean's background of military service and his insights into world affairs, I thought you might all be blessed by this:

    All we’ve been given
    By those who came before
    The dream of a nation
    Where freedom would endure
    The work and prayers
    Of centuries
    Have brought us to this day
    What shall be our legacy?
    What will our children say?
    Let them say of me
    I was one who believed
    In sharing the blessings
    I received
    Let me know in my heart
    When my days are through
    America
    America
    I gave my best to you
    Each generation from the plains
    To distant shore with the gifts
    What they were given
    Were determined
    To leave more
    Valiant battles fought together
    Acts of conscience fought alone
    These are the seeds
    From which America has grown
    Let them say of me
    I was one who believed
    In sharing the blessings
    I received
    Let me know in my heart
    When my days are through
    America
    America
    I gave my best to you
    For those who think
    They have nothing to share
    Who fear in their hearts
    There is no hero there
    Know each quiet act
    Of dignity is
    That which fortifies
    The soul of a nation
    That never dies
    Let them say of me
    I was one who believed
    In sharing the blessings
    I received
    Let me know in my heart
    When my days are through
    America
    America
    I gave my best to you
