RANT Segments & Headlines:

The Good:

  1. Peaceful measures. China continues to reduce its standing military. In 1997 they cut 500,000 from their ranks. Then in 2000 another 200,000 and as we touched on in the headlines, their president announced another reduction of 300,000 is in progress, which will bring their standing army to 2 million, the lowest numbers since the cold war ended, China has the second largest military in the world next to the United States http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/03/world/asia/beijing-turns-into-ghost-town-as-it-gears-up-for-military-parade.html

The Bad:

-BREAK- Voicemail

The Ugly:

  1. Hungary’s nationalist prime minister, Viktor Orbán, has claimed Europe is in the grip of madness over immigration and refugees, and argued that he was defending European Christianity against a Muslim influx. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/sep/03/migration-crisis-hungary-pm-victor-orban-europe-response-madness
