Jonah Jeremy Bob Jerusalem Post, Mar. 16, 2022 “Ukraine has previously informed the IAEA that regular staff have continued to operate the Zaporizhzhya NPP and carry out their day-to-day work, but that its management is under the control of the commander of the Russian forces there. In today’s update, the regulator said it had been […]
Melanie Phillips Israel National News, Mar. 18, 2022 “Russia’s top state-controlled energy company Rosatom is set to cash in on its $10 billion contract to expand Tehran’s Bushehr nuclear plant.” In his address to the U.S. Congress this week, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky told U.S. President Joe Biden in a plea for American air defenses against Russian […]

John T. Correll Air Force Magazine, June 24, 2016 “There is no official explanation for naming the airlift “Nickel Grass,” but it was most likely the work of an airman in the planning chain who whimsically borrowed the words from a bawdy World War II fighter pilot ballad that began, “Throw a nickel in the […]
J. Robert Kane Small Wars Journal, July 26, 2018 “Nevertheless, the idea of an American resupply airlift conflicted with American policy as described by deliberating members of the WSAG who knew of the diplomatic repercussions of the action with both the Arabs and Soviets.” The 1973 War between Israel and the Arab states is largely […]
