Koizumi all shook up over Graceland visit

Gateway Pundit:

...

Koizumi released an Elvis CD in 2001: "Junichiro Koizumi Presents: My Favorite Elvis Songs."

...


Back in 1987... When Koizumi was a mere lawmaker, he and his brother Masaya, now a senior adviser to the Tokyo fan club, helped raise funds to erect a status of Elvis in the Japanese capital to commemorate the 10th anniversary of his death.

Debbie Schlussel thought this was a pretty cool idea when it was announced.
Allah has a cool roundup.
The visit to Elvis's home was a dream come true for one of his biggest fans from Japan. It is great to see the human side of world leaders and particular one like Koizumi who has been a great ally for the last six years. Japan has become for Asia what the UK is for Europe when it comes to relations with the US and that is a high compliment. It will be a Blue Christmas without him.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
