STARTING TOMORROW: The Otherization Rules!*MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2021* *Quickly today, a pet peeve:* According to yesterday's New York Times, it happened rather quickly: The creation of a mural in a public school cafeteria quickly produced a type of culture war between the pro-mural and anti-mural communities. (Chekhov: "The appearance on the front of a new arrival—a lady with a lapdog—became a topic of general conversation.") The news report in yesterday's Times barely scratched the surface concerning the basic facts of the case. But we'll admit that we were annoyed when the Times reporter offered a demographic breakdown ... read more

Security In Iraq Oct 22-28, 2021
The last week of October saw an explosion of tension in central Diyala as the Islamic State attacked a village and then the inhabitants carried out a retaliatory strike upon a neighboring town.

One was the retaliatory attack by tribesmen in Diyala, two were by pro-Iran groups leaving 18 by the Islamic State. Those left 36 dead and 42 wounded. 1 Hashd al-Shaabi, 7 members of the Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) and... read more

The F-15EX Is a Great Airplane, but It Can't Replace the F-35*Peter Suciu* *F-15EX, * Experts are also quick to point out that even as great of a platform that the F-15EX may be—it absolutely shouldn’t be seen as a replacement or even an alternative to the F-35. This week the United States Air Force announced that the Boeing-built F-15EX Eagle II recently completed its first-ever operational test mission while paired with F-15Cs and F-15Es at Nellis Air Force Base (AFB), Nevada. It was a significant milestone for the aircraft, and it certainly highlighted the capabilities of the advanced aircraft. By all accounts, the F-15EX should be see... read more

The Myth of American Humanitarian InterventionIn the 1950s, the Americans invented the term “humanitarian intervention” to create the impression that their wars were motivated by altruistic and philanthropic concerns. They monopolized this term—only they had the right to attack another country for humanitarian reasons. If any other country intervened, the Americans would adamantly oppose the intervention and brand it as a savage invasion. In most cases, the American humanitarian interventions led to much bigger humanitarian disasters, probably because the real purpose of these wars was to capture natural resources and install p... read more
