“Congress has only itself to blame for this mess. The post office is meant to be self-sufficient, but it hasn’t broken even for years. A misalignment like this wouldn’t last in private business, but the Postal Service answers to politicians.”

2…………….> Three Global Terror Finance Campaigns Disrupted: DOJ

.
WASHINGTON – Today, the Justice Department, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Department of the Treasury announced the dismantling of three terrorist financing cyber-enabled campaigns, involving the al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas’s military wing, al-Qaeda, and Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (“ISIS”). This coordinated operation is detailed in three forfeiture complaints and a criminal complaint unsealed today in the District of Columbia. 

These three terror finance campaigns all relied on sophisticated cyber-tools, including the solicitation of cryptocurrency donations from around the world. The action demonstrates how different terrorist groups have similarly adapted their terror finance activities to the cyber age. Each group used cryptocurrency and social media to garner attention and raise funds for their terror campaigns. Pursuant to judicially-authorized warrants, U.S. authorities seized millions of dollars, over 300 cryptocurrency accounts, three websites, and four Facebook pages all related to the criminal enterprise.

Funds successfully forfeited with a connection to a state sponsor of terrorism may in whole or in part be directed to the United States Victims of State Sponsored Terrorism Fund (http://www.usvsst.com/) after the conclusion of the case.

“It should not surprise anyone that our enemies use modern technology, social media platforms and cryptocurrency to facilitate their evil and violent agendas,” said Attorney General Mr. William P. Barr.

3…………> US Navy Carrier Show Of Force:  Exercises In South China Sea

.
A strike group led by the USS Ronald Reagan conducted flight operations and high-end maritime stability operations and exercises:

“Integration with our joint partners is essential to ensuring joint force responsiveness and lethality, and maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific,” said Navy Commander Joshua Fagan, Task Force 70 air operations officer aboard USS Ronald Reagan.

The drill comes amid heightened tensions between the United States and China, as Washington has assailed Beijing over its coronavirus response, and accused it of taking advantage of the pandemic to push territorial claims in the South China Sea and elsewhere, long opposed by the US by regularly sending warships through the strategic waterway.

Brunei, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan and Vietnam have competing claims.

4…………> Female SS’ Service Guards: Ravensbrück Concentration Camp

.

In 1940, after World War II had begun, the female guards became members of elite death squad the SS (Schutzstaffel, Protection Squadron) of Hitler, and one of those was Maria Mandl who did  witness all inhumane brutality as the senior overseer of the all-women’s concentration camp in Ravensbrück, Germany:

“There was nothing bad about the camp,” she innocently declared at a tribunal for Nazi collaborators, shortly before being hanged in 1948, following a Krakow court that sentenced her to death as a war criminal at age of 36.
