Yes, and sow the ground with salt.

Happy May Day
…better known as victims of communism day. And it’s a tragic condemnation of our “educational” system that young people (and too many old people) don’t understand how horrific this philosophy is.
[Afternoon update]
[Late-afternoon update]
Sarah Hoyt (who would know): A remembrance of May Days past.
[Wednesday-morning update]
Killing Russian Mercenaries
Can you imagine the Obama administration doing this? Hey, if the Russians say they weren’t their people…
And note once again what a terrible Putin stooge Trump is turning out to be.
Le Zone Rouge
A century after the war, an interesting example of how Twitter can be a useful medium for a photoessay.
One of the most chilling abandoned places in the world is France's Red Zone, or "Zone Rouge".
Over 100 years ago, the First World War so devastated the landscape here that people are still forbidden to enter, & the zone has become a ghostly & overgrown place. pic.twitter.com/fPDL4URKmV

The House IT Scandal
Though I guess it’s not a scandal, like all of Obama’s scandals weren’t scandals, because the media refuses to report it.
[Update a few minutes later]
Another story the media finds uninteresting: The Clinton campaign illegally laundered $84M.
The New Anti-Semitism
Joel Kotkin writes that many Jews are delusional about their enemy.
I’ve noticed that the left media, both here and in Europe, assume that any antisemitism is “right wing” by definition. This helps cover up the source of much of it, particularly overseas. (Hint: It starts with “I”).
Trump And The Foreign-Policy Swamp
An…interesting perspective from David Goldman. The notion that “Russia Russia Russia!” is a strategy by the establishment to prevent a rapprochement with Putin is one that hadn’t occurred to me.
China
Is it “Sputniking” the U.S.?
I don’t know, but our procurement and R&D policies are pretty badly bolluxed up.
Trump’s Trade Policy
It’s magnificently right, and catastrophically wrong.
The entitlement sending is out of control, and what cannot go on forever will eventually stop.
Anti-Semitism
The German government struggles with a new form of it.
As the article notes, it’s because they declare it “right wing” by definition, which obscures the true source, as demonstrated by the fact that it takes seven paragraphs before the appearance of the M word.
