From now through the first week of January, World War 4 Report will be on semi-hiatus, with a low level of activity, while editor and chief blogger Bill Weinberg takes a well-earned stay-at-home vacation and sees to some personal matters. If you appreciate our daily offerings, please take this opportunity to support our year-end fund drive, so we can hit the ground running when we get back, with refocused energies—and hopefully having reached our goal of $5,000. Thanks for reading, and for your support.
