    THE NEW KALISHNIKOVS :: AK-47 - aka Drones 
    This poem is about the new invention in war, of small arms arsenals - The Drone. Coming on the heels of the 
    former mass produced and used small arm the - Kalashnikov rifle. 
    The similarities of the AK and Drones, for widespread use are their cheapness to build relative to their 
    use - cost benefit. Their individual strike and their reliability, and their 
    effectiveness. 
    In all its guises, it represents a new era in remote 'close contact'. 
    The Drone itself being sent from a remote location and controlled at a remote location, 
    but the target being an individual, small group or military vehicle like the Tank. 
    Drones are fast becoming the choice of weapon in the modern age for battlefield contact.

    Why It's Normal for Men to Cheat

    In a culture that often condemns male infidelity as a simple moral failing, Why It's Normal for Men to Cheat offers a more nuanced perspective. Author A.A. Castor delves into the deep-seated forces—evolutionary instincts, historical precedents, and psychological drivers—that shape male desire and can lead to unfaithful behavior. Far from excusing betrayal, Castor's aim is to illuminate the complex interplay between biology and culture, ultimately inviting a more compassionate and informed dialogue about what it means to be faithful in a modern world. 
    Drawing on fields such as psychology, anthropology, and relationship studies, Castor examines how factors like testosterone, societal power dynamics, and personal insecurities converge to influence men's actions. Through real-life stories and data-driven insights, readers gain a clearer understanding of how male infidelity can emerge from natural impulses, yet still inflict profound emotional harm on partners and families. 
    At its core, Why It's Normal for Men to Cheat is a call to self-awareness and accountability. Castor underscores that while natural drives are powerful, they do not override the moral responsibility we hold in committed relationships. By unpacking the taboo surrounding male infidelity, the book paves the way for honest conversations about trust, desire, and the boundaries that sustain healthy connections. Whether you have experienced betrayal firsthand or simply wish to understand the complexities of human sexuality, this book offers a balanced exploration that encourages empathy, introspection, and the possibility of genuine healing.

    Christianity was not a state religion for its first three centuries, and it was only when Emperor Constantine the Great declared it so in the early 4th century that the Church was faced with the thorny problem of state-sanctioned violence. The first major Christian authority to justify the use of arms in defense of Church and State was Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, who wrote in the 5th century, “They who have waged war in obedience to the divine command or in conformity with His laws, have represented in their persons the public justice or the wisdom of government, and in this capacity have put to death wicked men; such persons have by no means violated the commandment, ‘Thou shalt not kill.’”  
    	This opinion gained increasing influence in Western Christianity, though in the East, the attitude was (and continues to be) more nuanced. War was tolerated as a regrettable necessity in a world wounded by sin but never blessed. Canon law enacted in the Byzantine (Eastern Roman) Empire tended to treat soldiers who had killed as sinners needing to repent, and Bishop Basil of Caesarea (d. c. 330) believed that they needed to abstain from receiving communion for three years after battle. It was not that that the Eastern Roman Empire was a particularly peaceable state–far from it, in fact: it was engaged in almost continuous warfare for its entire existence. However, its conflicts were mostly defensive in character, fighting barbarians, Persians, or Muslims, and the idea of consecrating arms for the cause of Christianity was considered alien to its spirit.  
    At the Council of Clermont in July 1095, Pope Urban II canonized religious war by urging Western Europe's nobility to take up arms in defense of the Byzantine Empire against the Muslims, thus launching the Crusades, and religious military orders such as the Knights of Saint John, the Templars, and the Hospitallers arose.

    Libya and the West: What Everyone Needs to Know® is a welcome update to the literature on Western diplomatic relations with Libya. It specifically analyzes the complicated relationships that Italy, Britain, the United States, and France developed with Libya beginning in the 1910s. On the basis of a wide range of primary and secondary sources, it offers insights into the political and socio-economic conditions within Libya that concerned Western leaders and shaped their policies. Among the crucial episodes that this book embraces are fascist Italy's military conquest and colonization of Libya; the expulsion of Axis armies from Libya and other north African states during World War II; the enthronement of King Idris in 1951; the discovery of oil in Libya in 1959. It explains the seizure of power by Muammar Qaddafi in 1969; the low-intensity military conflict between the United States and Libya in the 1980s; the Western response to Libyan acts of terrorism, including the murder of a British police officer in London in 1984 and the downing of Pan Am flight 103 in 1988; the enduring turmoil sparked by the Arab Spring in 2011; the decision by NATO powers to intervene militarily in the Libyan civil war to ensure the downfall of the Qaddafi regime; and the murder of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens at Benghazi in 2012.
