Links For The Moonwalk Anniversary

As we observe the 50th anniversary of the first moonwalk, here are some things going on down here on earth:






From American Thinker, "Trump is no racist".

From LifeZette, FLOTUS "laughs at her critics" as she loses to one of her predecessors in a poll but beats out another.  (Since Mrs. Trump hails from Slovenia, can I regard any criticism of her which I consider unfair to be Slavophobic?)



From The Conservative Woman, China's harvest of religious believers' organs.










From the Express, why the U.K.'s new Tempest fighter jet could be a "game-changer".  (I wonder where the Brits got that name from.)












From Russia Today, a Soyuz MS-13 rocket is launched to carry three astronauts to the International Space Station.  (The three are respectively Russian, American and Italian.  I'm sure that the idea of an American riding into space on a Russian Soyuz would have been considered rather far-fetched back in 1969.)









From Arutz Sheva, a Holocaust survivor buys a medical bed for the 102-year-old Polish woman who rescued him.  (How do you say "thank you" in Polish?  Oh, wait, I know that one.  It's dziękuję.)




From Egypt Today, six defendants known as "the illegal migration gang" are held for criminal trial.  (More generally speaking, this is an example of a country enforcing its immigration laws.)







From The Hans India, India's Border Security Force prevent 12 Rohingya refugees from entering India from Bangladesh.  (Apparently, some countries are allowed to defend their borders.)













From Fox News, Border Patrol agents use teargas to stop 50 would-be illegal aliens from storming a port of entry on a bridge over the Rio Grande.  (The attempt occurred around 4:00 a.m., when the bridge is normally closed.)
