Trumpet Hour: Week in Review-China Takes Australian Port, Islamic State in Egypt, Arms Control Failure, Super-Soldiers, and More

. Australia has just turned the most important port on its northern coast over to China. Control of the strategic Port of Darwin goes to a Chinese company with ties to the Communist government-for the next 99 years.

. Egypt’s president Sisi is under siege from a number of directions-one of which is an alliance to take him down-that is developing between Hamas-and the Islamic state.

. Arms control treaties aimed at preventing the world from becoming an armed camp are falling to pieces.

. A Pentagon official says China and Russia are developing super-soldiers, unethically enhancing their infantry in ways that could change the way wars are fought.

. The Federal Reserve raised America’s interest rate-it was just by a quarter point-but it shows just how much distortion has been caused in markets by seven years of basically zero interest loans.
