  Phoney War The: The History of...

  Though the French would be decisively defeated soon after the Nazi invasion of Belgium and France in early 1940, they had not sat on their hands. As the power of Nazi Germany grew alarmingly during the 1930s, the French sought means to defend their territory against the rising menace of the Thousand Year Reich. As architects of the most punitive measures in the Treaty of Versailles following World War I, France was the most natural target for German retribution, so the Maginot Line, a series of interconnected strongpoints and fortifications running along much of France's eastern border, helped allay French fears of invasion.  
  	The popular legend of the Maginot Line portrays the frontier defenses as a useless “white elephant” project that was prompted by a gross misapprehension of warfare's new realities in the mid-20th century and quickly overwhelmed by the forceful advance of the German blitzkrieg. English idiom today invokes this vision of the Maginot Line as a metaphor for any defensive measure strongly believed in but actually useless. Indeed, usages such as “Maginot Line mentality,” describing an overly defensive, reactive mindset, perpetuate the legend. As a French author and military liaison with the British, Andre Maurois, wrote about his disillusionment with the defensive line he originally enthusiastically supported: “We know now that the Maginot line-complex was a dangerous disease of the mind; but I publish this as it was written in January, 1940.”  
  This was what brought about the stasis along the Western Front near the end of 1939, a short period of time now referred to as the Phoney War, during which the Western Allies awaited some sort of action by the Nazis. Ultimately, the Allies had not expected the Germans would be able to move armored units through the Ardennes Forests, a heavily wooded region spanning parts of Belgium, France and the Netherlands.

  Marriage and Morals

  In Marriage and Morals, Bertrand Russell challenges conventional attitudes toward love, marriage, and sexuality, offering a bold and progressive critique of traditional moral values. First published in 1929, this groundbreaking work examines the evolving nature of human relationships, questioning outdated norms and advocating for a more rational and ethical approach to marriage and personal freedom. 
  Russell explores the historical and cultural influences that have shaped ideas about marriage, fidelity, and sexual morality. He critiques the rigid constraints imposed by religious and social institutions, arguing that many traditional views on relationships are based on dogma rather than reason or human well-being. Instead, he promotes a more open and flexible perspective, emphasizing the importance of emotional and intellectual compatibility, personal autonomy, and mutual respect between partners. 
  A central theme of the book is Russell’s belief that morality should be based on human happiness rather than arbitrary social rules. He discusses topics such as divorce, birth control, and the role of women in society, advocating for greater equality and personal choice in matters of love and family life. His views, considered radical at the time, laid the foundation for modern discussions on sexual ethics, gender roles, and personal relationships. 
  Marriage and Morals remains a thought-provoking and relevant work, offering timeless insights into the complexities of love and marriage. Essential reading for those interested in philosophy, sociology, and human relationships, it continues to inspire debates on the intersection of morality, freedom, and societal change.

  Majestic 12: The History and...

  Editors Charles River

  When people think about unidentified flying objects (UFOs), they tend to think of flying discs piloted by gray beings with large heads and enormous eyes. They tend to think that these sightings only started relatively recently and that belief in UFOs is some sort of modern religion brought on, perhaps, by the very justifiable fears of a nuclear age. But a study of the phenomenon quickly reveals that people have been seeing UFOs since the beginning of recorded history and perhaps a lot longer than that. 
  	Naturally, as technological advances and the creation of flying aircraft became realities, the sighting of UFOs increased, as did the interest in potential contact with aliens.  Some of the American investigations of UFOs from the 1940s and 1950s were documented, but nothing exemplifies the debate between those who believe that extraterrestrials visit the Earth and skeptics than the top secret papers that emerged in the 1980s and seemed to prove the existence of a shadowy secret organization known as MJ-12 or Majestic 12. To believers, these papers proved beyond a doubt not only that UFOs were real and of extraterrestrial origin, but also that the federal government had been aware of this since the 1940s and had even managed to recover one or more crashed alien spacecrafts. To skeptics, this notion simply proved how gullible UFO believers were. There was no middle ground - people either believed in the MJ-12 papers completely or laughed at them. 
  	Decades later, it’s finally possible to take a more balanced view of the history of the MJ-12 papers, including where these documents originated from and who created them. It now seems virtually certain that there never was an organization called Majestic 12 and that the papers describing it were faked, but what makes the story truly fascinating is that it now also appears likely that these papers were faked by people actually working within the Air Force or another government agency.
