Investigation of generic ‘cartel’ expands to 300 drugs
Submitted by Amanda Matthews on Mon, 12/10/2018 - 6:16pmWhy is anyone so upset about drug companies ripping everybody off??? What did people think would happen when we were chained to Big Pharma by Hopey-Changey and his fraudulent ACA? Price fixing was no doubt going on before then but when it was decided that Americans couldn’t order prescription drugs from another country where they are less expensive, this was a natural result. But then again, YMMV.

British taxpayers paid for red-baiting Jeremy Corbyn
Submitted by gjohnsit on Mon, 12/10/2018 - 2:56pmAmericans may not be aware that the anti-Russia propaganda in the U.K. is at least as bad, if not worse, than it is in the U.S. It now turns out that the propaganda effort is both taxpayer funded, and definitively partisan.

How did I miss this failed Israeli missile attack on Syria?
Submitted by arendt on Sun, 12/09/2018 - 6:43pmThis mention, today, is the first I've heard of this incident.
On November 30, following almost two-and-a-half months of silence, the Israeli air force bombed Syria with three waves of cruise missiles. The first and second waves were repulsed over southern Syria, and the third, composed of surface-to-surface missiles, were also downed. At the same time, a loud explosion was heard in al-Kiswah, resulting in the blackout of Israeli positions in the area.
