The Air Force Caucus

Article Abstract:

The Air Force Caucus was formed by a group of former Air Force veterans who became legislators. It is the first group of its kind to be formed that focuses purely on Air Force issues. The organization has 19 members, each of whom has served either the Air Force or Air National Guard, and some of whom have had distinguished military careers. These members represent both major parties and come from all parts of the country. They function as the Air Force's lobbying arm for various proposals and projects, and express their views on the House floor, in hearings and other private legislative forums.

James Woolsey, Director of Central Intelligence in the period 1993-95, have given their opinion about the priorities of the USAF and also about the Washington's struggle against the toxic combination of political fascists and religious extremists in the Islamic world, in the Air Force Association's inaugural Air & Space Conference, held in Washington D.C.

A crescent over Europe?

Article Abstract:

The growing restive Islamic minority both in numbers and political power in the European continent has become a matter of concern for the US, which has enjoyed an exceptional relationship with Europe. Experts predict that Europe would have an Islamic majority sometime well before the end of the 21st century providing a social and political challenge to the US.
