Does Moscow plan to use microchipped birds to bomb Americans—and to begin controlling human minds? The post Putin’s Pigeons appeared first on The American Conservative .
Takimag Putin’s Pigeons Does Moscow plan to use microchipped birds to bomb Americans—and to begin controlling human minds? TakiMag Pigeons are often colloquially known as “flying rats.” Might this be because they are actually secretly spies, trained by intelligence services to flap around “ratting” on people like feathered Stasi and KGB informers? In Vladimir Putin’s Russia, this appears to be the plan.

I was also a columnist for Esquire,…Open

Foreign Affairs How to End the War in Iran The stated American war aims have been achieved, and with difficult work a conclusion is conceivable. The difficulty of finding a path toward ending the war with Iran should not dissuade us from looking for one. In terms of the goals the Trump administration set out for the attack, there is little reason to continue the conflict. At the same time, the political and, in particular, economic costs of the conflict have grown. President Donald Trump’s Truth Social post on Monday, combined with media reports , indicates some interest in ending the war on his part, but a serious diplomatic push would take several weeks at least. This article sketches a framework for ending the war. It is, by its…Open
