While Max busied himself publishing his multi-volume study of religion, lecturing, organizing military hospitals, serving as an adviser in peace negotiations and running for office in the new Weimar Republic, Marianne published many works, among which were: "The New Woman" (1914), "The Ideal of Marriage" (1914), "War as an Ethical Problem" (1916), "Changing Types of University Women" (1917), "The Forces Shaping Sexual Life" (1919) and "Women's Special Cultural Tasks" (1919).
ellauri063.html on line 41: Tony Blair oversaw British interventions in Kosovo (1999) and Sierra Leone (2000), which were generally perceived as successful. During the War on Terror, he supported the foreign policy of the George W. Bush administration and ensured that the British Armed Forces participated in the War in Afghanistan from 2001 and, more controversially, the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Blair argued that the Saddam Hussein regime possessed an active weapons of mass destruction (WMD) program, but no stockpiles of WMDs or an active WMD program were ever found in Iraq. The Iraq War became increasingly unpopular among the British public, and he was criticised by opponents and (in 2016) the Iraq Inquiry for waging an unjustified and unnecessary invasion. He was in office when the 7/7 bombings took place (2005) and introduced a range of anti-terror legislation. His legacy remains controversial, not least because of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars.

The author Robin Moore, who wrote the book, The Green Berets, helped Sadler write the lyrics and get a recording contract with RCA Records.

One verse mentioned Gabriel by name, but it was not used in the recorded version.

Because of its isolation and dirt-low cost of living, many bases around the world were closed and relocated to Battle Mountain. Soon Battle Mountain Air Reserve Base became JAB (Joint Air Base) Battle Mountain, hosting hot air units from all the military services, the Air Reserve Forces, the Central Intelligence Agency, and even the Space Defense Force and the Death Planet.

Human Rights Watchin mukaan Rapid Support Forces -joukot tekivät sotarikoksia Darfurissa vuosina 2014 ja 2015, jolloin siviilejä siirrettiin, raiskattiin, ryöstettiin ja tapettiin.

General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon on yhdysvaltalainen yksimoottorinen yliääninen monitoimihävittäjä, jonka General Dynamics on alun perin kehittänyt Yhdysvaltain ilmavoimille (USAF). Se suunniteltiin päivähävittäjäksi, ja siitä kehittyi menestyvä jokasään monitoimilentokone. Yli 4 600 lentokonetta on rakennettu sen jälkeen, kun tuotanto hyväksyttiin vuonna 1976. 50v vanhoja prutkuja. Yhtä vanhoja kuin Alapuron Mikko, yhtä nopeita kuin Alapuron Risto. Vaikka Yhdysvaltain ilmavoimat eivät enää osta niitä, parannettuja versioita rakennetaan vientiasiakkaille eli värivammaisille hölmöille, alikehittyneiden maiden miespuolisille kansalaisille. Fighting Falconin tärkeimmät ominaisuudet ovat kehyksetön kuplakatos hyvän näkyvyyden takaamiseksi, sivulle asennettu ohjaussauva, joka helpottaa ohjausta ohjauksen aikana, 30 astetta pystysuoraan kallistettu heittoistuin vähentää g-voimien vaikutusta ohjaajaan ja rento staattinen vakaus / fly-by-wire- lennonohjausjärjestelmä, joka auttaa tekemään siitä ketterän lentokoneen. F-16:ssa on sisäinen M61 Vulcan -tykki ja 11 kovapistettä. F-16 on myös hankittu palvelemaan 25 muun maan ilmavoimissa. Vuodesta 2015 lähtien se oli maailman eniten asepalveluksessa oleva kiinteäsiipinen lentokone. Israelin ilmavoimien F-16-koneiden ansioksi laskettiin 44 ilmasta ilmaan -murhaa Libanonin konfliktin aikana. Yhdysvaltain ilmavoimat (USAF), sen neljä Nato-kumppania, ja Pakistanin ilmavoimat (PAF), joka on suuri Naton ulkopuolinen Yhdysvaltain liittolainen, ovat General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falconin pääoperaattoreita. Neljä eurooppalaista kumppania, jotka tunnetaan yhteisnimellä European Participating Governments (EPG), ovat Belgia, Tanska, Alankomaat ja Norja; niiden ilmavoimista käytetään myös nimitystä European Participating Air Forces (E-PAF). Jatkotilauksia ei ole tehty lukuun ottamatta yhtä tilausta vuonna 1989 kahdelle F-16B- 15 OCU-lentokoneita korvaamaan kaatuneita lentokoneita. Kaikki lentokoneet ovat saaneet Mid-Life-Update (MLU) -päivityksen ja uuden coolin kypärään kiinnitetyn tähtäysjärjestelmän. Äveriäs Norja ilmoitti 6. tammikuuta 2022, että kaikki sen F-16:t on poistettu käytöstä, kun ne on korvattu Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II:lla.
ellauri346.html on line 265: Russians take the initiative: Bad news from Ukraine The Russian military has assumed the initiative in the areas of Kupyansk-Svatovo-Kreminna (located in the Luhansk and Kharkiv regions) and the Donetsk region. A potential fall of Avdiivka, deemed the gateway to Donetsk, could be inevitable, as per Colonel Mart Vendla, the Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Estonian Defense Forces, as reported by ERR service. Vendla mentioned that rasputitsa, or the seasonal mud season, is slowly commencing in Ukraine, which will notably alter the battlefield conditions. "In the coming week or two, the weather impact will likely increase even more, causing serious disruptions in the use of heavy and armored vehicles this month and the next, until the ground freezes. Both the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the Russian Federation are probably striving to secure cozy lodgings before winter's onset," the Estonian officer assessed.

When asked about the situation on the front line and the strategy of Ukraine's Armed Forces, he refrained from sharing specifics. However, he did reveal that the commanders were deliberating on the current battle strategies. Might this indicate a shift toward a defense-only operation for the Ukrainians? The more we support Ukraine, the sooner the war will conclude - Jens Stoltenberg optimistically ended.

ellauri372.html on line 542: Riimin sanat "swear for" ja "wherefore" ja "ecclesiastic" ja "kepin sijasta" ovat yllättäviä, luonnottomia mutta humoristisia. Lisäksi "-don dwelling" ja "a-colonelling" riimi on jännitetty katkeamiseen saakka, jälleen humoristisen vaikutuksen vuoksi. Mitä vittua, "colonel" ääntyi /kolönel/ 1600-luvulla!? Moukka! “Colonel” came to English from the mid-16th-century French word coronelle, meaning commander of a regiment, or column, of soldiers. By the mid-17th century, the spelling and French pronunciation had changed to colonnel. The English spelling also changed, but the pronunciation was shortened to two syllables for no good reason. By the early 19th century, the current pronunciation and spelling became standard in English. But in the part of Virginia I come from, there is no “r” sound; it’s pronounced kuh-nul. (David Miller, Curator, Armed Forces History, National Museum of American History).

The team consisted of two U.S. Special Forces soldiers and four South Vietnamese. The mission was deemed a success with 88 bombing sorties flown against the terminus resulting in multiple secondary explosions, but also resulted in SOG´s first casualty, Special Forces Captain Larry Thorne in a helicopter crash. William H. Sullivan, U.S. Ambassador to Laos, was determined that he (Lauri) would remain in control over decisions and operations that took place within the supposedly neutral kingdom, though dead as a doornail. That would keep the excursions to neutral Laos "plausibly deniable."
