Who doesn’t love a good sword? Whether it’s the weapons of the Samurai and Ninja, or Excalibur or that brute of a thing that William Wallace carried in Braveheart, these ancient tools of war are a part of our development as a species. Some are ornate, some are basic, some are well made and some […]

Weapons sell. We can see the importance of such profiteering in the current slaughter in Yemen in which the US and UK governments are making vast profits from the sale of killing systems to the Saudi Arabian regime.
