In a move that has escaped the scrutiny of major media outlets, Arlington National Cemetery's website has quietly removed sections highlighting the contributions of Black, Hispanic, and female veterans. Gone are the pages that celebrated the lives of trailblazers like Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, General Colin Powell, and the intrepid Tuskegee Airmen.

Even the stories of pioneering women such as First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and World War II combat photographer Marguerite Higgins have been erased.​

With an estimated $15 trillion in lithium, titanium, uranium, and rare earth elements at stake, the battle isn’t just between Russia and Ukraine—it’s a global fight for power, technology, and economic control.
