News China

News ChinaAs a Chinese-American who has been residing in the states for almost a decade, I find most publications to be polarizing. They are either so anti-china to omit anything that has to do with its economic development and exaggerate in terms of their "human rights" violations: most notably the "correctional facilities for fa lung gong practioners". or only exalt the huge strides theyre making economically, omitting any social issues.

I find this publication to be the least biased one i have came across on China. It explored both sides of the issue. it explored topics i do not want to think about my homeland such as "involuntary hospitalization" and racism towards minorities. it has a very balanced account of all of today's happenings in China.

good thing all LA county libraries have this publication. no need to pay a dime.

This magazine is surprisingly enjoyable. People living in the US or Canada who have a connection with mainland China will be pleased with the variety and depth of the news presented each month. This is not a magazine that says "Rah Rah China" all the time either, it often exposes the missteps of business and political leaders, the current (and true) state of all Chinese society in general, and interesting coverage of the Chinese cinematic industry and the arts. All and all, a worthwhile magazine for anyone interested in Chinese current events.

It felt like the language barrier was gone, and I was reading a Chinese version of Forbes, or whatever. It comes out monthly, so I ended up reading it cover to cover. I had always felt desperately in need of more information on the worlds, soon to be, biggest economy. Now I feel I have it. Who would have thought, that after all or those books, after Rosetta Stone Mandarin, and all I could get my hands on, (plus a ton of money) it was really just a subscription to some obscure monthly that I needed! My thanks to the Brooklyn Public Library for having a copy in my local branch, at one time, for exposing me to this fascinating resource.

Soldier of Fortune

Soldier of FortuneYes, you read correctly, World War III. That is what we are fighting right now. Soldier of Fortune brings coverage from all over the world that you don't get in the mainstream press. And the talking heads on TV certainly don't mention some of what SOF covers.

In every issue, there is a Terrorism Sitrep which gives a run-down on various arrests, attacks and other details related to worldwide terrorism. It's the first thing I open to because in 2 or 3 minutes, I can get a feel for what's going on.

Further, they gave (and still give) excellent coverage to the wars in Afganistan and Iraq. But they still cover what mercs are doing in Western Africa and how a small group of guys is trying to make a difference on the US-Mexican border (Ranch Rescue).

All-in-all, a great magazine. Definitely on the cutting edge with its stories, giving the reader information not readily accessible. If you are a military person, and/or concerned about what's REALLY going on in the world, you should read this. If you claim to be a patriotic American, you should read this to find out what the mainstream press won't tell you about the Mexican army, illegal drug runners, and the invasion of our southern border. READ THIS MAGAZINE!

Soldier of Fortune is not a great magazine, but it is a good magazine to keep an eye on. The articles generally include interviews with prominent politicians and military figures, reviews of guns, and news stories and research pieces. The news stories tend to come heavily from the right, and the conclusions they come to sometimes sound like conspiracy theories, but it is good that some people lean forward on the news to try to put things together. Also usually included is a piece on a military operation of the past, reviewing tactics, equipment, and personalities involved. I enjoy reading this magazine and have learned some things from it. I recommend it.

Though I live in the UK (England if you prefer) I subscribe to Soldier of Fortune, because I admire it's forthright, often outspoken views. Though there are military magazines published here they tend to be either factual (planes or tanks), or historical. SoF's passionate defence of America and it's constitution, and individual rights is something you do not see very often this side of the ocean! Our magazines tend to be more reserved. If only the UK could produce something as patriotic. Opinion aside SoF has sharp colour photos, and more important articles covering topics which are simply ignored by the mainstream media.

Heartily recommended. If you in the USA it's a bargain!!!

I'm a Brazilian, single and I was born in 1970. I never left my country, except for some weeks. I read just a few issues of this amazing American magazine. Please, I read many other American magazines, also about weapons and wars, but Soldier of Fortune is the best of them. If you want to read what is really happening in places such as Iraq or wants to know what really are Iran, Somalia, Venezeula or even Argentina and Brazil, this is a great choice.

For any war happening today, this is the best magazine to read. It seems that it doesn't sells good, but this is the best magazine in its area.

This Mag covers everything from our troops serving in combat and occupation missions to the best new equipment. SOF also gives you a rundown on different weapons and stories of guys who lived to tell their own personal war stories. The World SITREP column in the centerfold gives a look at global stability or lack thereof and you can read about terrorist arrests and threats you are not being told about through mainstream media. The contributing editors are in the places they are writing about and are not there on assignment for the Mag, but are there helping to better the cause, so that what you read is accurate and fresh. I have been reading SOF since I was in 6th grade in the early 80's and I can remember reading about Osama bin Laden well before most Americans ever even heard the word Taliban. Read it and be up to speed it's a great source of info.

BTW you will save a lot of money by using the subscription card in the Mag
