In City Journal, Mark P. Mills reveals a future for renewable energy…one that depends on oil and natural gas. The narrow-minded “transitionist” rationale, he argues, overlooks the US$5 trillion price tag (in the U.S. alone), the shakeup to industry, mining constraints, the costly overbuild of backup generation, the false analogy of green energy’s scalability, the dubious development of battery storage – and the ultimate impotence of government-imposed “mandates”.

Palestinian Culture: Unique in its Own Destructive Way
Although the Palestinian Authority enjoys an array of cultural departments and programs, A.J. Caschetta in Jewish World Review finds that all of it – art, education, literature, poetry, music, education and film – is oriented to two goals: the vilification of Jews and the destruction of Israel. Caschetta notes this is in sharp contrast to Arab and Muslim traditions, which include myriad aesthetically normal cultural works. Palestinianism, Caschetta finds, is “a very sick culture”, driven by resentment and fuelled by hate.
