"It was at the maximum range of the aircraft. There were so many unknowns and again, you know, no plan survives first contact with the enemy and as you read about the chapter in operation torch and what evolved there, it's a miracle that the 60th didn't lose any more aircraft than they actually did. Hey everyone, Scott here. We're going to take a short break for a word from our sponsors. Right, I mean, you get the sense with World War II that every bit of equipment, particularly aircraft is cutting edge experimental brand new. I mean, there are some aircraft that were developed in the mid 1930s like the B-17, but not even just the aircraft, all the tactics, how you use it with thousands, tens of thousands of troops, and could you describe, first of all, the results of operation torch, but what are the lessons learned with conducting an airborne mission that will come out later in D-Day when you have a good understanding of what works, what doesn't work, what are ideas that should be further developed. And what are other ideas that are good in terms of speculation, but need to be scrapped because they're ultimately not workable. Yeah, well, what's interesting is, well, the results of operation torch obviously initially, the French did fight back, but quickly they changed your mind and they actually kind of joined our side. They're in North Africa. So overall operation torch the landings were successful. They eventually did get those aircraft and the key is getting fighter and bomber aircraft into North Africa to support the army to provide close air support interdiction missions as the army advanced operation torch. The North African campaign most Americans aren't too familiar with it, but it actually did go fairly fast. We pushed the Germans across Algeria and into Tunisia, which set up the stage for the invasion of Sicily. And when I talk about the invasion of Sicily in the book, I mean, that was another airborne disaster and I talked about lessons learned throughout North Africa and Sicily, there were many lessons learned and we'll talk about those right now real quick. Obviously, just medical evacuation flights, casualties off the battlefield were initiated for the first time in army history with the C-47 in North Africa. So just lessons learned about how to expand the battlefield medical capability, triage, get men back to that first care point to actually save a lot of lives and that whole medical evacuation system grew and matured through D-Day later on. 26,000 Americans were medically evacuated from C-47s off the beaches of France later on in 1944. So you can see that whole aspect there. Lessons learned about, you know, we talk about tactics and how to fly formation. This was just all brand new. It just didn't happen. Remember most of your pilots were all brand new, flight officers and second lieutenants right out of flying training. Most of them when they showed up, some of them didn't even have training in C-47s. They did their training in the states were shipped overseas. So basically these men were learning their jobs, you know, in combat situations, on the fly, we learned a lot about working with the airborne. How can I say it inner service coordination with the navy in shooting down friendly aircraft?

"Scott here with another episode of the history unplugged podcast. In World War II, the allied forces use all sorts of aircraft in combat for the very first time. And because of that, they also use experimental tactics. In May 1942, the allies flew new C 40 7 transport aircraft to North Africa as part of operation torch. This was the first combat airborne mission in U.S. Army history, but also the longest airborne mission of the entire war. The planes flew their maximum distance and only had enough fuel to handle a one way trip. Even though the paratroopers trained during the daytime, they had to deploy at night. Now a lot of mistakes were made and lessons were learned here that would make for better airborne operations in the future, such as D-Day, but there were also lots of innovations that came in handy later. The 60th troop courier group went on to fly some of the first combat aero medical

You're adopted only. That's fine. That's a whole different story, right? That's how men preferred women to be overweight. And that's a old preference in tradition. But the funny thing is that when some Americans do go to Mauritania and be overweight, they're like, why is he acting like a woman? They used to associate. And sometimes you would see the way like really overweight people walk in the way women did. The same thing. So that's why they would be really confused. Like, why is this guy trying to be a woman? Well I used to hear it. Because they associate like that because like morita men or at least back then they're really skinny, you know, really skinny.

"So before it's just a bunch of people landing on a beach and what we had in North Africa was just get it off the ship. We don't care what it is and get it on the beach somewhere and just dump it on the beach. But the problem is, where it's needed isn't on the beach is needed in shore. And once it's on the beach, do you have any idea well, first of all, what's on the beach and secondly, where is it at? So you can get to it quickly. That's what these shore elements or store groups and strawberries are going to do. So there'll be more of a systemized approach to what is our offload look like. Once it arrives on the beach, it's going to we know where it's going, which beach it goes to. We have a better organization. You need a strong personality controlling that beach. So the beach master is not only controlling the combat forces that roll in, but the support forces and directing you go here, you go there, put the ammunition over here, put the chow over there. You don't want everything all mixed together. And then once it's on the beach now, the engineers are clearing paths through the beach so you can get it off. And now what you want is your supply dumps, established inland. So this is another example where we're seeing a Sicily where equipment and ingenuity comes to play because we now have these new vehicles called ducks. They're an amphibious vehicle. They can take two and a half tons of supplies from offshore. You can swim on shore and they can traverse the beach and go inland a ways and then drop their material and go back for another load. Or they can move in. Whatever it might be. But we see them at first in Sicily and they're amazing at what they do. They're not real fast, they can't haul a great deal, but they're fast enough and they can do it, fill a need where there was a gap before. So the combination of these new beach units that are controlling the beaches new equipment like the ducks that are offloading material, moving it inland, and now we're establishing these short inland supply dumps. So we know where to go for ammunition. We know where to go for petroleum. We know where to go for rations and water where it might be. Now you're talking about throughput. So it's how many people can we not only land on the beach, but get across the beach. How many tons of supplies can we not only land on the beach across the beach and store it inland? And now you start establishing, this is your next priority is what

The 2021 federal grant program is designed to promote atheism and humanism overseas and encourage quote dissent from religious belief. Joe Biden, of course, the Catholic that I put in quotes wants to spread atheism. I always laugh when I hear this, which is if atheism was true and you believed it, why would you want others to also believe it? You're an evangelistic atheist, that's really dark. To help us unpack this, is the courageous congressman Jim banks, who's pushing back against it, congressman, welcome to the program. Be with you. Thanks for having me. So this is hard to believe. Walk us through the specifics of this in some detail. The Biden administration's Secretary of State Anthony blinken, they have a bureau of democracy and human rights. They're promoting atheism and humanism worldwide, walk us through this. Yeah, this is really crazy. So in April of 2021, the Biden State Department under secretary blinken announced a competitive process that would award grants of up to about a half a $1 million to organizations that are committed to the practice of spreading atheism or humanism, especially in south and Central Asia, Middle East and North Africa.

"So to the topic that I wanted to discuss today, I wanted to share some thoughts regarding the 5 remembrances I first recorded a podcast episode in 2019 around this topic and that was episode number 108 and the title of that episode was important things to think about often. So you can revisit that one if you want, but this is a revisit of the topic of the 5 remembrances. So it's been a while since I've recorded a podcast. I've been busy with life and travel and just things that I have to do for work and for, you know, being a dad and a husband and all the other things that you do in life. So yeah, I think it's been over a month now since I recorded a podcast episode. I just returned from a trip, I was able to go for work to Europe and then to North Africa. And had the opportunity to do some flying there. So I really need trip, I really need experience, and one of the benefits of being a team pilot for one of the wing manufacturers in Europe is that for their annual team pilot gathering, I got to go to France to do to join this meeting and my twin brother is also on the team, so it was really fun for both of us to be able to go fulfill our duties as team pilots, but also be able to do some fun exciting travel and flying centered around that. So I think our primary responsibility as team pilots is to go out and fly and capture footage, photos and videos, which is why if any of you have looked for me on social media, thinking I'll follow and see if I share any podcast related stuff. Everything you would encounter if you see me on social media centered around flying, and that's why because all of the content that I capture as part of my obligation as a team pilot to produce content that helps promote that specific brand. So anyway, that's why I was on that trip. And had a really good time. And while I was there, I was thinking a lot about the 5 remembrances..

Only the Foolish Follow Their Hearts
"The Angela Merkel piece in The Wall Street Journal? You know one of my mottos in life that helps me understand life, my Friends. One of them is Germany is always wrong. And I say that with deep affection, not only for individual Germans in my life. At a German young man, live at my home for half a year. I just fell in love with. Wonderful special young man. But Germany as a country is based basically always wrong. And fitting into that motto is The Wall Street Journal editorial. Rarely has a foreign policy legacy been discredited as rapidly and thoroughly, as former German Chancellor Angela Merkel's. Remember I said she was a foolish woman, a long time ago, when she led the way in Europe to having a million people from North Africa come in. From the Middle East, actually, Middle East and North Africa. And my heart goes out to a lot of those people. It is always gone out to these people.

How Iran Uses Hezbollah to Conduct International Operations
"I'm continuing my discussion of Iran and its operations in other countries in the Middle East and even in North Africa. The article I'm discussing is written by Karim sajar poor in foreign affairs magazine and such a port makes the point that Iran uses its surrogate, which is Hezbollah, to conduct operations in a number of other countries, but particularly in Lebanon. Now Hezbollah is by far the most powerful force in Lebanon today. They just go about doing whatever they want. I mean, they want to assassinate a political opponent. That's it for him. They have they run their own underground economy. They've implanted thousands of rockets in Lebanon that have the capacity of striking Israel. And then one time Hezbollah claimed to be sort of its own organization. It was not part of Iran. But of late, they've become very explicit about their the fact that Hezbollah essentially is Iran. Here is Sheik and Ezra. This is by the way the founder and leader of Hezbollah. And he goes, as long as Iran has money, we have money. Just as we receive the rockets, we use to threaten Israel, we're receiving our money. So this is an azra la basically saying, hey, listen, I'm Iran's man outside of Iran. I do Iran's bidding and the Iranians are perfectly happy to fund me. Let's remember that Iran also uses Shia radicals and local groups in Iraq and they used it while America was in Iraq to sort of destabilize the Iraqi regime, which they were very successful in

It was plenty the younger in North Africa. They dusted off a book. And so Luther was going back to the source code. There wasn't a centuries of medieval craft institutional lawyers and bankers saying this is acceptable. This is not acceptable jurisprudence that someone talking about the decision that happened previously over a century after century, he raised it all by going back to the sources for him, the source code was scripture. So he actually went back to the Hebrew and the Greek, not Jerome's vulgate, but what he found there was something very specific that said, this institutional cruft is illegitimate. And so yeah, he pounded up these theses, which is like, that was a technical academic debate. He didn't want to have it with everyone. He put it on the wittenberg door, not because it was for everybody to see. People couldn't read it. Latin, he actually put it up for a very specific academic debate. He didn't want a revolution. He didn't want craziness. He wanted to just kind of massage the details and start something new. And ultimately, the power holder said, no, we're not going to let you challenge our authority that way. So it spun out. And so wittenberg, the high flying academic, you know, that's writing in Latin is also wittenberg, the bar room brawler, literally, who's writing these shit post memes where 50,000 of them are posted all over the place. And that's what took the world by storm. He didn't intend to have that consequence. And for like quite a while, he was anonymous. He was like some monks, I'm drunk and monk in the middle of nowhere. It wasn't any power hub. And like before that, historians don't really know what to call what was happening.

"And she says she absolutely remembers that they called them flags and she actually had Irish irises growing on the side of their house. And they would cut them and take them out to the cemetery, and that's what they called planting flags. And I did ask her if she still calls me that she says, oh yes, I still call iris flags often. But I asked about her kids who several of them are still in Springfield. And she says, oh no, they would never. They would never call them fly. So called a viruses. So my question is, I'm just curious was that a highly localized thing has a completely gone away, you know, because like I said, her kids are in Springfield now. Don't say it. So I'm just really curious about that whole origin of the flags and the irises and why my dad would have called iris flags. Oh, fascinating. There is a white iris iris albicans, which is also known as the cemetery iris, and it's something that is planted in a lot of cemeteries, particularly throughout the south. There's this long, long tradition of planting white irises in cemeteries. It's a tradition that goes all the way back to North Africa and found its way to Spain and then from the Spanish who settled in Florida. It spread throughout the south. Now, is there any is there any guess how that means does it look like a flag? Is there any particular flag that looks like or any guess how the term came about or is there another derivation of flags that I'm totally missing that doesn't mean nothing to do like a banner? Well, that's a very good question because the etymology of the flag that symbolizes a nation and the flag that is an iris plant. They're both kind of murky, but the plant flag may come from an old word that means read or rush refers to a kind of read and tall, skinny flower. The flag that's made out of cloth. Again, is another sort of murky etymology. It may have to do with the sound of it flapping in the wind..

I stood up straight and tall, like a tall, tall, sunflower, and I just radiated the light and the beauty of my mind in relationship to the world of fashion. So one of your contributions in terms of personal style to fashion is your capes and your caftans. How did you start wearing them? And I should say these are not ordinary capes. These are like amazingly designed sometimes out of particular fur and just thought out and processed with the great class world class designers. Well, when I went to Marrakech and saw that the men in North Africa and Casablanca walked around in caftan shirts and loose cliff fitting clothes all day every day. They woke up, they put on their long sleeves to the floor ankle shirts to the floor. They had caftans, and this is the indigenous dress of the black man in Marrakech. And this is I decided I wanted we like that. I want to wear that instead of a suit because it's comfortable. You have ventilated, your roomy, your cozy, and you can just stretch. And I'm not a tall stick anymore. I'm a big, big guy of great girth, and people think I look like maybe my clothes don't look that important, but I have taken great time and fittings for my capes and kaftans made by the great designers. So I will continue to wear these things to the rest of my life. Did your weight have anything to do with wanting to work? Absolutely. My weight issue is an ongoing thing. It's an ongoing battle.

Author William Federer Describes 'The Treacherous World of the 16th Century'
"William Federer has written a book called the treacherous world of the 16th century and how the pilgrims escaped it which its effectively the prequel to America's freedom, William Federer, welcome to the program. Great to be with you. Hey, I mean, the treacherous world of the 16th century and how the pilgrims escaped it. Most of us know so little about the 16th century. We don't think of it as treacherous or non treacherous. What are we talking about here? What is that what is it that got you to write this book? You've written so many books on history. It's a joy to talk to you on any historical subject. But I love it when you come out with a book like this, because you really have done your homework and we get to benefit. What is it that why do you call it the prequel to America's freedom? What did they leave? Well, Europe was ruled by kings and it was being invaded by the sultan of Turkey. The Ottoman sultan Suleiman the Magnificent he was surrounding Vienna. So backdrop, the Muslims conquered all of North Africa, which used to be Christian. There were 250 Catholic diocese along North Africa. Muslims invaded Spain and held it for 700 years and they were just driven out in 1492. So just a couple of years earlier, the Muslims had controlled Egypt for 600 years. It had been founded by the Christian face Mark that wrote the gospel of Matthew Mark Luke and John. And then Siri was completely Christian for 6 centuries of angiotensin by the apostle Paul until Khalid Omar conquers it. And the Turks convert to Islam and they invaded to what is today Turkey and all 7 churches mentioned in the book of revelation are wiped out and then they finally cross the Bosporus and conquer Constantinople in 1453 and then finally they're invading Europe and surrounding Vienna Austria the year 1529. So here we have an Islamic invasion into Europe and just a couple of years earlier the reformation started 1517 with Martin Luther. And so Europe has an inside outside chaos going on and the Holy Roman Emperor is the king of Spain. Charles V now the title Holy Roman Emperor means he's sort of responsible for defending Christendom. And so here he is wanting to defend against the Islamic invasion. At the same time, he is inherited all the new world, right? Columbus discovered it for Ferdinand Isabella. And so he's taking the gold from the new world to fit out his navy to keep the Muslims from taking over the Mediterranean

And there's plenty of extreme weather right now across the globe in greece. Fires a continuing to devastate entire towns and record. Temperatures are taking hold in southern europe and north africa. The where we saw the most concerning fires in the last week well fires that they thought were in remission. Have now up again and the severe heat. Waves are expected to reach areas of spain and italy to as the country's brace for temperatures of around forty seven degrees celsius and that's not to mention the recent devastation caused by weather events exacerbated by climate change including fires in turkey and siberia.

This is the stupi. I'm this is happening in real time. And i think the world doesn't know enough about climate change is happening now to how can we stop it. You're listening to sky. Needs climate costs with me. Anna jones ami katharina the toxin. This week we're taking the most sobering assessment about climate. Change that we've ever seen an asking. What can we do to solve the problem. Yes a country in the district. Court really has been the talk of the town. Hasn't it this week headlines everywhere. A lot of coverage in the media. We've heard a lot about it but if you can do us the honor of giving us the standout points for mates. It's i know. It's a tough a tough ask. Well scientists have been working on it for about three years and they assessed over fourteen thousand pieces of scientific evidence and research part shot. Try in one minute. Don't don't don't tie me. I'll do my best to my best to summit upside right. So what does the report show as well to break it down. And this is the first of three parts of the ipcc's report and this one looks at the science of where our planet is now in terms of its climate and produces has produced various scenarios that projects where our climate will be in the future. So let's take first part shall we. Where are we now. So it is unequivocal. Human activity has contributed to the woman of global surface. Temperature and atmosphere and scientists have estimated that so far that's been warming of around one point one degrees celsius above pre industrial levels. So that's from about eighteen fifty until now and the fastest rate of warming in the last two thousand news has happened in the last forty years that we're seeing that woman happening at an unprecedented rate and now looking forward into the projections and various different scenarios. When it comes to emissions the report found that even if we work tomorrow to suddenly shift to very low levels of emissions of greenhouse gases that's a carbon dioxide nitrous oxide methane. We will still hit one point five degrees celsius of warming in the next twenty years. We're locked into that. There is an irreversible change over the next few decades. We're also locked into at least half a meter of sea level rise continuing arctic sea level melts and the increase in severity and frequency of extreme weather so things like heat waves into the wildfires. Such you've seen in southern europe over the last few weeks drought. Tropical storms like cyclones at leading to flooding. So so bring assessment really. Yes that's right. And i have seen quite so many people on social media. Talk about how scary a report is when this is essentially the most authoritative view of what's happening to the planet's climate today and as you say it went comes a shock to to climate scientists but at the same time seeing in those bull terms and does sound alarming. So let's focus on that glimpse of optimism shall we because it isn't all politics to talk us through why we shouldn't give up hope. Yes the report. Isn't supposed to scare people into thinking this is it. This isn't game over. There are calls to action within it and and it looks as i said various different scenarios in the future and it does show that if we were to put in deep what we are. Governments are industries what we can just communities if we would commit to deep and profound cuts to our emissions levels. We could stick to that one point five degrees celsius threshold of warming their thereabouts and even start to see the worst effects of that climate change start to diminish towards the end of the century and that is the real key positive message we could take from this report that it's not too late and realize what it does is it also puts the uk in the spotlight ahead of cop twenty six which is just around the corner and eighty days away now and accompany. We've been talking about it for so long is rapidly approaching and we'll put the spotlight in terms of what we're doing with our decarbonising plans with our mission's plans. But there are a couple of reports this week about what. The u k strategy is have suggested it might actually be a bit more fragile than anyone would like us to believe. Yes that's right and we've still announcements to come. Haven't we from the government about how it's going to meet. It's very ambitious targets but one of those reports that you were talking about was one. That's come out. That said that blue hydrogen could have been a key. Part of the government's plan to to bring down our greenhouse gas emissions this form of hydrogen could actually be twenty percent worse for the climate at the burning natural gas potentially but a bad news for the prime minister just a few days after that report. Yeah and that's not all those new analysis from wwf. The world wildlife fund claiming that the march twenty twenty one budget didn't add up to the to the uk government delivering on its climate promises. They said that the climate mitigation policies equate to just one hundred forty five million pounds but policies that will drive up emissions at such as a controversial fuel. Duty equate.

Patriarchy is woven into this society in the fabric of it, the economics of it the culture of it the ideology of it, but With fascism. It's taking that once again to new extremes. And I think with this one of the example I think is useful to get into this. A lot of people at first really scratched their head. About the unity between Donald Trump and Mike Pence, Because here you have somebody who's completely hidden Mystic has no more no moral compunction just completely Ah womanizer serial divorce her sexual predator, Donald Trump, and then you have somebody like Mike Pence who's so repressed and calls his wife, mother and is, it would be still acting normal life. You wouldn't think by somebody like Trump and they came together. And that's a political science. It's a fusion of Christian fascism in this country, which is a powerful vein of the fascist movement and other movements that Trump brought together. But one of the cornerstones of this is Absolute hatred of women. In a very extreme form. Because Mike Pence wants to reduce women to breeders to criminalize abortion to criminalize birth control absolutely, just allow women to exercise their full humanity. Being a parent could be beautiful if you want to be. I'm not against Children but against the forcing of women to have Children, the reducing women to nothing more than breeders. Trump, on the other hand, wants to reduce women to nothing more than sexual objects and objects of sexual plunder. And in those two things, they may seem different, but they're both reducing women to possessions of men in one form or the other, and that is a big cornerstone of their unity. And it's why somebody like Trump, who Who was pro choice his whole life because it enabled him To continue his womanizing and predatory behavior can morph right into the outright enslavement of women through more force. Mint thistles. All peace, then, of course. Have the machismo. And the warlike mentality, the exertion of male domination in the streets and the mobs that we saw. We have people out Proud boys recently, some some group of women who very reactionary fascist women tried to form proud girls, and they were harshly told by the leaders of proud boys and mocked and ridiculed that you have no right forming a group. It's boys. It's male domination. And if you want to help us, you should be in the kitchen, having babies keeping him around shut. That's almost The direct quote. So this hatred of women is a big cornerstone of this fascist movement. Absolutely..
