The Challenges of Understanding Taliban Finance
Afghan Afghani bills. (Peretz Partensky, https://flic.kr/p/9c2CBh; CC BY-SA 2.0, https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/) Last week, the Taliban effectively took control of most of Afghanistan. This has naturally led to questions about how the group managed to do it—and about how they were funded. Researchers do have a high-level understanding of how the Taliban raise funds, but much less is known about how the group uses, moves, stores, manages and obscures its funds. Even public understanding of Taliban revenues suffers from lack of precision. The lack of precise knowle... read more

“Festival Borges” plans to draw Argentina’s most “universal” author closer to the public

What the Collapse of Afghanistan Means for America’s Future
*Daniel R. DePetris* *National Security, Americas* This past-action theory of credibility has proven to be bogus, in large part because no two situations or crises are identical—and no two U.S. presidents are identical either. Opponents of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan are using the images of desperate Afghans seeking flights out of the Kabul airport to attack the U.S. decision to leave the decades-long civil war. Nikki Haley, the Trump administration’s former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, equated President Joe Biden’s departure from the South Asian nation as a fu... read more

He wants to pick and choose which sectors recover. Erin O'Toole said the Conservatives want all Canadians to prosper in the post pandemic recovery which includes all workers and all trade unions.

Just Because We've Only Detected One Doesn't Mean Rogue Interstellar Objects Are Rare
In 2019, astronomers spotted a snowball in space moving at over 110,000 miles per hour. They quickly realized they had never seen it before. It was not even from our solar system. Now named Borisov, it was the first interstellar comet ever detected by humans. That doesn't make it rare. A new computer estimate instead believes that in the Oort Cloud—a shell of debris in the farthest reaches of our solar system—interstellar objects outnumber objects belonging to our solar system. *Borisov comet.

The Army Is Looking to Employ Sensors on High Flying Balloons 
*Peter Suciu* *military, Americas* The balloons would be equipped with cyber and electronic warfare sensors. During the American Civil War, the Union Army established the Balloon Corps, which was initially organized as a civilian operation that employed a group of prominent American “aeronauts.” The unit, which was active from 1861 to 1863, used seven specially built, gas-filled balloons to perform aerial reconnaissance on the movements of the Confederate States Army. The unit was disbanded before the war ended, but in 1893, the United States Army Signal Corps established a War B... read more

The F-14 Tomcat Might Be America's Most Iconic Fighter— Not Just Because of Top Gun
*Mark Episkopos* *F-14 Tomcat, * Years before its iconic appearance in the cult classic film Top Gun, the Northrup Grumman F-14 Tomcat distinguished itself as a versatile and ruthlessly effective workhorse fighter. The Tomcat has its early roots in the Tactical Fighter Experimental (TFX) program. Seeking to cut development costs and to streamline production chains, then-Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara laid plans to procure a joint fighter for the U.S. Air Force and Navy. Against the wishes of the Navy, the TFX program produced the ill-fated General Dynamics F-111B attack ai... read more
Afghanistan Today Is Not Taiwan Tomorrow
*Chris Li, Josh Tupler* *Afghanistan, * Comparisons between U.S. policies toward Afghanistan and those toward Taiwan are more wrong than right. President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw American forces from Afghanistan ushered in the unceremonious close of a conflict that cost over $1 trillion and killed or wounded nearly 25,000 Americans across six presidential terms. A two-decade-long bipartisan investment of American blood and treasure failed, ultimately, to achieve U.S. objectives of permanently expelling the Taliban and building a self-sufficient, democratic nation.

U.S. Credibility Not Seriously Damaged by Afghanistan Failure

Learn From The East – A Major Lesson Of The Pandemic.
The world is now in the throes of another wave of Covid-19, with another surge in infections, sickness and deaths, this time due to the more infectious and apparently more lethal Delta variant. Are there lessons to be learned from the previous waves of Covid-19 that might help us now? There are, and they were evident long ago, but in the West, they have been largely ignored. Up to now, for example, the US has suffered over 617,000 deaths; China in contrast has suffered fewer than 5,000 deaths in a population four times as large as the US. Could there not be some lessons that mi... read more

Late in June 2021, commercial satellite imagery revealed that China appears to be building a field of at least 119 underground silos for the launch of nuclear intercontinental ballistic missiles, or ICBMs, in its northwestern Gansu province. That’s in addition to around 20-25 more silos already known to be under construction elsewhere. The 700 square mile IC... read more
Taliban Takeover: Who is Abdul Ghani Baradar, Afghanistan’s New Leader?

The Taliban has emerged as the undisputed victor of the nineteen-year war against the U.S.- and NATO-supported Afghan government. The group’s most prominent, Zabihullah Mujahid, gave its first press conference on Tuesday, in which he indicated that the Taliban’s stances had moderated and it was open to women’s education and employment.

California Courts allow San Quentin to steal prisoners property
Last June I wrote on this blog about the situation of San Quentin (California) death row inmate James P. Anderson. I’ve been friends with Anderson for the past 2 ½ years and we regularly speak on the phone about his situation inside the prison as well as things going on in the wider world. I recently asked him how we first made contact and he told me he'd seen an article I wrote in 2005 that made the connections between growing Pentagon budget and cutbacks in social spending. So he tracked me down and called from San Quentin and I accepted the call. The rest is history. I wante... read more
