Turkey threatens severe retaliation against the Netherlands as diplomatic crisis escalates

By Dr. Mercola Alzheimer’s is an epidemic, currently affecting an estimated 5.4 million Americans. Unless there are radical changes, many experts project half of us will eventually acquire it. Since diet is one of the root causes, diet is also a foundational prevention and treatment strategy. This is an important point, considering there are no meaningful conventional treatments for this devastating disease. Drugs like Namenda or Aricept, which are commonly prescribed for Alzheimer’s, have very limited effectiveness and come with potentially serious side effects. But other healthy lifestyle strategies also need to come into play for a truly holistic approach. … Continue reading →

Not long ago, a democratizing Turkey, with the second-largest army in NATO, appeared on track to join the European Union. That’s not likely now, or perhaps ever. Last week, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan compared Angela Merkel’s Germany to Hitler’s, said the Netherlands was full of “Nazi remnants” and “fascists,” and suggested the Dutch ambassador go home. What precipitated Erdogan’s outbursts? City officials in Germany refused to let him campaign in Turkish immigrant communities on behalf of an April 16 referendum proposal to augment his powers. When the Netherlands denied Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu landing rights, he exploded, saying: “The … Continue reading →

Editor’s Note: Over the last few weeks a multitude of readers have asked about how to go about investing in Russia. We tasked our in-house financial expert Paul Goncharoff — who has been doing business in Russia since before the internet was invented — to provide our readers with a short beginner’s guide. Paul Goncharoff is Chairman, Disciplinary Committee, National Association of Corporate Directors, Russia. Lately, I have seen a noticeable increase in the number of non-Russians registering as so-called “tax residents” in the Russian Federation. This is by no means a tsunami of people, but it is increasing mainly due to opportunity and comparatively … Continue reading →

About four months from now, Americans will go through the sickly, depressing ritual of celebrating the liberties they no longer enjoy. This includes, among an almost infinite number of things now malum prohibitum (that is, illegal, a violation of some law or statute, but entailing no harm done) being free to hire someone to give them a ride at a price mutually agreeable and otherwise acceptable to both parties. The government – that is, the busybodies-with-guns who are the government – consider this sort of peaceful, voluntary transaction between consenting adults, neither of them complaining, to be intolerable because it … Continue reading →

If you thought you had been outsmarting restaurants by plumping for the second or third cheapest wine on the list, then think again. Contrary to popular belief, the wines one or two above the cheapest at a restaurant is no more likely to be of better quality or value than the lowest priced glass or bottle on the list, according to sommelier Mark Oldman. He says restaurants know diners will often opt for one above the cheapest and will place wines with higher markups in these coveted slots. His advice? Always choose the cheapest wine on the list, reports Business Insider. … Continue reading →

One month before I joined Ron Paul’s Congressional staff in Washington, my article against school vouchers was published in The Freeman (May 1976). That was a long time ago. My article was directed against Professor Friedman’s chapter favoring school vouchers in his 1962 book, Capitalism and Freedom. School vouchers are a way to let parents have some choice in where to send their children to school. The local government issues vouchers to parents of school-age children. Local schools can exchange vouchers for money from the government. If schools can attract parents who will pay partial tuition in the form of … Continue reading →

Well-known gun author Chris Bird has produced a new book. The full title is Surviving a Mass Killer Rampage: When seconds count, police are still minutes away. Bird requested a review by Guns.com staff, and I was fortunate to be chosen as the reviewer. In this meticulously researched publication, Bird delves into almost every mass murder spree that’s been in the news in recent history, with an emphasis on the actions leading up to, and finally actions taken to end the events.  He provides an overview of police and other institutions’ philosophies regarding mass killings, as well as analysis of … Continue reading →

Last week President Trump significantly escalated the US military presence in Syria, sending some 400 Marines to the ISIS-controlled Raqqa, and several dozen Army Rangers to the contested area around Manbij. According to press reports, he will also station some 2,500 more US troops in Kuwait to be used as he wishes in Iraq and Syria. Not only is it illegal under international law to send troops into another country without permission, it is also against US law for President Trump to take the country to war without a declaration. But not only is Trump’s first big war illegal: it … Continue reading →

It has been said that “as California goes, so goes the nation”.  That is why it is such a shame what is happening to that once great state.  At one time, California seemed to be the epicenter of the American Dream.  Featuring some of the most beautiful natural landscapes in the entire world, the gorgeous weather and booming economy of the state inspired people from all over the world to move to the state.  But now people are moving out of the state by the millions because life in California has literally become a nightmare for so many people. I … Continue reading →

This paper was delivered at the Mises Institute’s 2017 Austrian Economics Research Conference in Auburn, AL. Having devoted considerable time over the last forty years to studying the Great War, an interest that I developed in graduate school in the mid-1960s, I am no longer surprised or disappointed by fictional accounts of this conflict. In a forthcoming anthology, I try to explain why the glaringly obvious is so often neglected in most popular histories of the War. This is seen particularly in the attempt to attach overwhelming responsibility to the losing side while making the Allied governments look better than … Continue reading →

Back in 2013, Barronelle Stutzman, the owner of Arlene’s Flowers in Richland, Washington, refused to provide flowers for a gay friend’s same-sex wedding. The legal battle that ensued has now ended: The Washington State Supreme Court just unanimously ruled that the florist violated the state’s anti-discrimination law. The case has given rise to some misconceptions about discrimination. Here is the back story. In 2012, the state of Washington enacted Senate Bill 6239, which recognized same-sex marriage. Gay men Robert Ingersoll and Curt Freed, who had been a couple since 2004, decided to get married in September of 2013. At the … Continue reading →

The CIA created and accumulated from other sources a huge array of malware and cyberattack capability capable of stealing information from any individual, any government, any corporation, any intelligence agency and either leaving no trace or leaving a “fingerprint” of an innocent party. The CIA, being arrogant and incompetent, lost control over its monster which escaped and now is in the hands of we know, not who. Floating around the Internet, it was sent to WikiLeaks. Listen to Julian Assange’s explanation of the capability of the CIA’s spyware, which includes end runs around encryption. The presstitute media’s response was not … Continue reading →
