After seven Democratic presidential candidates debated on Nov. 15, CNN treated us to a debate of eight Republican hopefuls on Nov. 28. The transcript of the debate numbers 25 pages. Its first major subject is “illegal immigration,” which runs to Page 10, or about a third of the debate. Illegal immigration? The word “state” in the political sense (as in “the United States of America”) implies that foreigners cannot come to and live in a “state” as they could on land owned by no one. Otherwise, the “USA” should have been called “NOLA,” “No One’s Lands of America.” Nineteen foreigners...

The Dragon's Fury Series by Freeper author Jeff Head has been re-written, revamped, and re-released as a single Harback Novel of 800 pages. The original story is largely the same, with new content, an update for current geo-political-technical conditions, new artwork, and removing any specific date-centricity. There are forewords by best selling freeper authors Larry Schweikart (LS) and Matthew Bracken (Travis McGee) which read as follows: By Larry SchweikartCo-Author of, A Patriot’s History of the United States Author of, America's Victories: Why the U.S. Wins Wars and Will Win the War on Terror From the moment an unholy alliance...

Americans were rightly outraged over the possibility of an Arab nation with ties to terrorists taking control of six major American ports. Protests from across the nation helped to squelch the deal. However, the job’s not finished. The Communist Chinese still control ports at Long Beach. Congressman Charlie Norwood, (R-GA) made a strong case for getting the Chinese out of the port of Long Beach when he noted that while Dubai has been a reliable partner for America in the War on Terror, Red Chinese officials have threatened invasion of America’s ally on Taiwan and nuclear war against the United...

Great News! Freepers LS & Jeff Head have just released a book! It is LS (Larry Schweikart) first novel, a thriller about 9/11, "September Day", produced by fellow FReeper Jeff Head. Only available on Amazon/B&N. Hope you'll take a look: Check out Amazon site About September Day No living American can, or should, forget 9/11. But the process of trying to place this book with a major publisher has alerted me to the fact that many indeed want to do just that. Repeatedly, my agent got rejections with the words, "It's well written, but we don't want to touch...

I am very close to finishing my book regarding The Stand at Klamath Falls and the crisis of 2001. Here is the cover art: (Note: In this post I am including the Introduction, the Acknowledgements, and the Epilogue for review and comment.. The book should be completed and to the printers by the 1st of February.) INTRODUCTION It has been almost five years since the memorable and pivotal events surrounding the struggle by farmers in the Klamath Basin of Oregon and California took place. Much has occurred since then that has overshadowed those events…but nothing can erase the importance of...

In May 2004, a flotilla of Chinese warships sailed slowly down the length of Hong Kong's Victoria Harbor in an effective show of force. Officially, the People's Liberation Army described the visit as "an event to honor the PLA Navy's 55th anniversary." Clearly, the subtext was that the People's Republic of China (PRC) was striding confidently on the world stage. This display – the first since the colony's return to China in 1997 – came as pro-democracy advocates were grumbling about Beijing's clamp-down on any appearance of self-determination for the former British colony. Two guided-missile destroyers (Shenzhen and Harbin, Sovremmenyy-class...

In the last months there has been a lot of interest expressed on FR about aircraft carriers. I have found that there is a lot of interest all over the net. So, I created a web site about all of the World's Aircraft Carriers. It will surprise you how many countries operate at least one...and also how many are building large-deck Amphibious Assault ships. Of course, no one holds a candle at this time to America's capabilities in this regard. Please enjoy, and let me know what you think. I hope it serves as a resource for naval enthusiasts everywhere....

The PLAN is readying the former Russian carrier Varyag for something. These pictures show the exterior painting now being completed in the standard PLAN surface combatant colors, with the superstructure preparing to be painted. They have been working on the project in their naval shipyards for over two year now.

Yesterday my wife and I attended a community awareness meeting called at our church to talk about the growing methamphetamine and illegal drug problem in our little Idaho community. The County Attorney and a Captain with the Idaho State Troopers made the presentation, with the local Police Chief and Sheriff also in attendance. About 300 people attended. Idaho is an increasing target for the Mexico Drug Cartels for developing and deciminating drugs. The officials clearly showed and demonstrated how these drugs are being funneled, using illegal aliens as carriers, from Mexico, across the remote sections of the US border and...

Note: Click on any of the pictures in this report for a larger image. Over the 2005 Labor Day weekend we drove from Idaho to Bremerton, WA to visit my daughter and son-in-law (active duty US Navy) and our two grandsons. A secondary reason was to take a look at the US Navy reserve fleet there in Bremerton and to see any current US Navy vessels in the yards. The trip over was very beautiful and pleasant. There is a lot of very beuatiful scenary between Idaho and Washington. Here are some pictures of some of that scenary. Once we...

Over the last ten days I have, with the rest of America and the world, watched a horrific natural disaster and tragedy unfold. I say natural disaster because that is exactly what a hurricane is when it strikes humanity and destroys property and lives and leaves suffering in its wake, as hurricane Katrina did along the Gulf Coast last week. I say tragedy because I have sat transfixed as I have watched as governmental social programs long in place, contributed to the disaster, and as a number of unimaginable and crass mistakes made by those who could have and should...

Is China building a carrier? By Yihong Chang JDW Correspondent & Andrew Koch JDW Bureau Chief Hong Kong & Washington, DC Chinese shipyard workers have been repairing a badly damaged ex-Russian aircraft carrier and have repainted it with the country's military markings, raising the question once again of whether China is pursuing longer-term plans to field its first carrier. In the latest developments, images show that workers at the Chinese Dalian Shipyard have repainted the ex-Russian Kuznetsov-class aircraft carrier Varyag with the markings and colour scheme of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Navy (PLAN). Additional new photographs show that other...

The purpose of the "RISING SEA DRAGON IN ASIA", web site is to chronicle, document and analyse the rapid buildup, growth and modernization of the Red Chinese navy (PLAN), and attempt to put that growth and modernization into perspective as it relates to the current geo-political situation, and as it relates to United States vital interests in general, and particularly as it relates to the United States Navy. The Site contains a extensive section with a side by side pictorial and technical comparison between the developing PLAN and the US Navy, as well as sections documenting the rapid growth of...

What is Liberty? Well, IMHO, in the context of American liberty, ere's an answer.... Liberty is freedom from encumberance in an environment where the unalienable rights of mankind are both recognized and respected and where individual "Free Will" bounded by fundamental moral principle is the avenue for interaction in society . That's a lot of pretty words that basically say that if a people are to be free, they and their government have to recognize and respect the God-given rights of others and be moral. In fact, liberty can not coexist with widespread individual, or institutional immorality. Immorality places an...

NEW DELHI - India and China, the world's two most populous countries, agreed on Monday to create a "strategic partnership" in an effort to end their longstanding border dispute and boost trade and economic cooperation. The agreement signaled a significant shift in relations between the two Asian giants after decades of mutual distrust and suspicion. "India and China can together reshape the world order," Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said after a welcome ceremony for his Chinese counterpart, Premier Wen Jiabao, at India's presidential palace. Together the two nations account for one-third the world's population. The statement announcing the partnership...

I'm Katie, Jeff's oldest daughter. He asked me to write and update everyone. I posted a thread on Joanie's thread but it was so far down I didn't know if anyone would see. He pulled through surgery fine and is now home recovering. They did have more problems than anticipated and had to repair four sinuses instead of just two as well as remove a cyst. He thanks everyone for their thoughts and prayers and is hoping to be back online in the next few days. Thanks for all of your support!

Jeff Head will be undergoing surgery this morning, Friday the 11th. The surgery has been a long time coming, in that he has experienced, for the last several months, headaches, dizziness, lightheadedness, and a significant loss of stamina. After enduring a battery of tests, it was determined that his major organs are in good shape but he is suffering from a severe case of sunisitis. This morning’s surgery will involve going into the two frontal sinuses and surgically opening up proper drainage for them, while also letting them drain, medicating them, and attempting to clear them out without damaging the...

THE RISING SEA DRAGON IN ASIA 2005 UpdateBy Jeff Head, February 2005 As an update to the original "Rising Sea Dragon in Asia", that I publiushed in January of 2004 (and have been writing and warning about since 2000), I offer this update, dated in February of 2005. This report is fairly short and broad, and I believe does not contain the detail necessary to reflect the true scope of the emerging threat. But it does clearly indicate the nature and size of the current Red Chinese buildup, and their is only one principle power that such a buildup...

Hi Fellow FReepers,I am privileged to announce that Jeff Head, the 2001 Free Republic Person of the Year, has just created a single hardback volume of all five of the Dragon's Fury series books! Now, instead of getting one softback volume at a time, you can read the entire epic between two hard covers.This is a serious undertaking, to say the least! The collector's edition comes in at over 800 pages, by using a smaller than typical font, and putting many more lines on a page than you normally see. For those of us over 40, it will mean pulling...

Now, he has suffered another heart attack...his kidneys are failing...his lungs are...

BEIJING: State oil giant Sinopec Group has signed a $70 billion oil field development and liquefied natural gas agreement with Iran, China's biggest energy deal with the No. 2 OPEC producer, an Iranian official said Friday. The preliminary deal may yield political benefits far sooner than commercial ones as Iran courts China's favor on the UN Security Council, where Beijing holds a potential veto over any action against the Islamic Republic's nuclear program. Under a memorandum of understanding signed Thursday, China's second-largest oil firm, Sinopec Group, will buy 250 million tons of LNG over 30 years from Iran and develop...

Also willing to indoctrinate their youth and have them particpate directly in the bloodletting....

For those of us who have followed Freeper Jeff Head's series, "Dragon's Fury," through its currently published four volumes, all you can say to Jeff is . . . . Do you have a crystal ball? Without giving too much of the plot away, suffice it to say that with the events in Beslan and the possible shift in alliances in which the U.S. and Russia end up fighting certain Middle Eastern states together, we are only a couple of steps away from seeing his plot unfold.

For all of those who have been praying for my brother, sadly, I must inform you that he passed away this afternoon at 5:57 PM in Denton, Texas. He died of respiratory failure associated with his lymphoma. We were set to take him home to in-home hospice care on Friday after some liquid was to be drained from his abdomen. Before that procedure could be preformed, he took a turn for the worse and his kidneys began to fail. The doctors indicated that further procedures might prolong his life shortly, but would lead to re-occurance in short order and probably...

Halfway through Jeff Head’s four volume (soon to be five volume) series, “Dragon’s Fury”, it’s difficult to decide whether to be more awed by the scope or by the execution of this 21st century Iliad. In “Dragon’s Fury”, Head has crafted an epic – there’s no other word - with a global range and has done it without allowing the story to lose its humanity and focus on individuals wrapped up in and affected by events. And, oh mama, are there ever events. Iran parlaying a nuclear capacity into reality, Middle Eastern states coming together into a unified intranational entity,...

Received a cellular call from Jeff this PM . His brother who has been suffering for a long time may be losing his battle with cancer. Jeff and his family are enroute to Texas and will pass thru here Saturday afternoon. Jeff has asked all to please include his Brother and his family in their prayers for the next few days.

I took out the domain name "TributeToRonaldReagan.com" today (it will take about 96 hours to propogate across the web). It is my permanent tribute to President Ronald Wilson Reagan...the greatest President in my life time, in the 20th centruy, and among the two top presidents of all time, second IMHO, only to George Washington.

Regarding the growing wait to see the late President Reagan lying in state. ...I am overjoyed to see it. I wish I could be there. I woudl gladly wait 24 hours or more to be honored to see him lying in state. Myself and my family will be there in spirit. I pray that the masses who desire to see him amaze everyone...that they are so numberless that they cannot be contained. I pray that they will wait as long as necessary and be glad and willing to do so, in California and in DC...white, black, yellow, brown and red....

My Tribute to Ronlad Reagan, The Gipper These are my feelings at the passing of a truly great American...one that history will show whose life and service to this nation we were all tremendously priveleged to have personally witnessed. Ronald Reagan (1911-2004) was simply the greatest President in my lifetime, and I believe the greatest President of the 1900's. Probably among the greatest three Presidents this nation has ever had. He epitomized the traditional American spirit of positive, can-do attitude, reliance on fundamental moral principle eminating from faith in God, dedication to the principles of individual liberty and a commitment...

I wanted to take a moment and give a progress report to everyone following my Dragon's Fury Series of novels. As many of you know, my father passed away on January 25th just past.

THE RISING SEA DRAGON IN ASIA By Jeff Head, January 2004 In the 1990's the Poeple's Republic of China embarked on an unprecedented military buildup to modernize their aremd forces, increase their qualitative functioning and put them in a position to be able to better carry out the geo-olitical dictates of the Red Chinese government. This necessarily includes being able to develop themselves to a point that they could credibly confront the other armed forces in the region who may stand in the way of those geo-political directives, in particularly the United States.
