A North Korean Nuclear EMP Attack: The Threat America Downplays at Its Peril
*William R. Graham* *Security, * Why Washington needs to see this threat for what it is. Analysts like Jack Liu and Jeffrey Lewis are to be commended for their interest in educating the public about North Korea’s missile and nuclear programs and endeavoring to provide their readers with “informed analysis.” However, in a series of recent articles, both analysts have written off the possibility of a nuclear electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack from North Korea as “unlikely” and “science fiction” because they believe the 10 to 20 kiloton nuclear weapons currently possessed by North ... more »

*A portion of the 2016 presidential debates staged by Professors Maria Guadelupe and Joe Salvatore, in which the Trump character is played by a woman, Rachel Whorton (left), and the Clinton character is played by a man, Daryl Embry (right).* *by Gaius Publius* The latest outrage from the Republican Wet Dream Team is Trump's withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord, cheered by almost every Republican in elected federal office.

Brief terrorism round-up

London attack: How are UK extremists radicalised? Per BBC News
A fascinating BBC article http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-40161333 purporting to examine how UK extremists are radicalised. The article manages not mention the Koran and the Hadiths, do they really play no part in the radicalisation of extremists? Are there really no Koranic verses that could be seen as justifying or even ordering terrorism? Really?
Donald Trump drops all pretense and takes to Twitter to call the Muslim travel ban exactly what it is, a Muslim travel ban.
We need to be smart, vigilant and tough. We need the courts to give us back our rights. We need the Travel Ban as an extra level of safety! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 3, 2017 This is the tweet that Trump sent out on Friday right after the attack in London. The fact that Trump used the term "ban" did not go unnoticed. Thank you for making it clear it's truly a Muslim ban as SCOTUS considers ur Exec Order- ur truly the dumbest President we've ever had. — (((DeanObeidallah))) (@Deanofcomedy) June 4, 2017 So instead of deleting the tweet or making some bullshit excuse, T... more »
Is Libya War Coming to an End?
[image: undefined] On the 3rd of June, Khalifa Haftar's Libyan National Army (LNA) gained its most significant strategic military victory in the southern part of the country which now means that almost two thirds of Libya is under Haftar's LNA control. This may prove to be a game changer in the six year struggle for power after the US and UK-led attack on Libya in 2011. The LNA entered the southern town of Waddan in Jufra and overran the area. The nearby town of Sukna was taken by the LNA. Haftar’s forces then captured the strategically important Jufra AFB which will give it air s... more »
Beyond ‘Blowback’: Islam and Terror
[image: undefined] The latest attack in London – the third to hit Britain within seventy-five days – is once again provoking a debate about the relationship between Islam and terrorism. On one side we have those who say Islam is inherently violent, and is incompatible with the basic canons of Western civilization. On the other side, we have liberals who say that this is a libel on an entire religion, and that advocates of religious violence are a distinct minority within the Muslim faith. These two views have distinct policy implications: the former would impose what amounts to a M... more »
Trump’s Budget: Radical Change or More of the Same?
[image: undefined] President Donald Trump's proposed budget has generated hysteria among the American left. Prominent progressives have accused the president and his allies of wanting to kill children, senior citizens, and other vulnerable Americans. The reaction of the president’s allies — including some conservatives who should know better — is equally detached from reality as they hail Trump for launching a major assault on the welfare state and making the hard choices necessary to balance the budget. President Trump’s budget does eliminate some unnecessary and unconstitutional ... more »

The Real South China Sea Question: Is China Really a Threat to Maritime Trade?
*James Laurenceson* *Security, Asia* The risk of other countries’ trade being halted or subject to a costly diversion is exaggerated. Western media commonly claims that more than US$5 trillion in trade passes through the South China Sea annually. This figure appears to originate from a 2011 press release by US Navy admiral Robert F. Willard, who cited the value of trade flows as a reason why the sea lanes were ‘incredibly vital’ to the United States and the region as a whole. Similarly, the Australian government’s 2016 Defence White Paper says that Australia’s interests in the r... more »

A Russian Fighter Plane’s Tragic Error Brought Us Google Maps

The April 1978 shootdown of Korean Air Lines Flight 902 by a Soviet Su-15 fighter plane—which killed two passengers but spared 107 others—distressed the Soviet air force, not because it had shot down a civilian airliner, but rather that it had gotten so far into Soviet airspace before being intercepted. Five years later, a second encounter between Su-15s and a Korean airliner would result in far heavier loss of life. On Aug. 30, 1983, KAL Flight 007 departed from John F. Kenne... more »

Where Global Terror Really Reigns and Who Is Responsible
As recent terrorist attacks in the West have shown us, the economically advanced nations of the world are still highly vulnerable to attacks by lone-wolf terrorists despite the fact that trillions of dollars have been spent on trying to prevent such attacks. While the loss of dozens of lives in attacks in France, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany, Russia, the United States and other nations is tragic, there are parts of the world where terrorist attacks take place on an even more regular basis that are more-or-less completely ignored by the mainstream media.

"A Journey..."
"Happiness is a journey, not a destination. For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles *were* my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness *is* the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one." - Souza
"Just Once..."
"But because truly being here is so much; because everything here apparently needs us, this fleeting world, which in some strange way keeps calling to us. Us, the most fleeting of all. Once for each thing. Just once; no more. And we too, just once. And never again. But to have been this once, completely, even if only once: to have been at one with the earth, seems beyond undoing." - Rainer Maria Rilke

Yet, at the same time, as the Eastern sages also knew, man is a worm and food for worms. This is the paradox: he... more »

This broke the impenetrable Saxon shield wall and exposed King Harold to Norman cavalry. Would there ever have been a Soviet Union if the Czar had sta... more »

It’s the ability to hold and manipulate information in mind, over brief intervals. It’s for things that are important to you in the present moment, but not 20 years from now.

Disaster Branding: The Importance of Naming-- Guest Post By George Lakoff
Donald Trump knows the power of branding and actually make huge profits by selling the use of his name. But the power of naming and branding can be a double-edged sword: when a president creates and perpetuates real human disasters, we can truthfully attach his name to them and allow well-earned disaster branding to spread naturally. Mr. Trump uses the word "disaster" metaphorically for policies and practices he doesn’t like. But there are real, literal disasters in the world: huge fires, devastating, floods, deadly storms, major droughts-- disasters caused systemically by the hea... more »

The U.S. Navy Has the Best Submarines in the World (Largely Thanks to a Terrible Tragedy)
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * The Thresher tragedy is a big reason why. *The creation of SUBSAFE lead directly to tougher—and safer—submarines. (Another U.S. Navy submarine, Scorpion, was lost in 1968 but there is no conclusive explanation for the sinking.) In 2005, the USS San Francisco collided with a seamount at maximum speed—an estimated thirty miles an hour at a depth of 525 feet. SUBSAFE’s careful watch over submarine design and manufacture is credited with ensuring the San Francisco not only failed to sink, but that only one sailor died and the ship could even make it bac... more »
This Russian Submarine Could Out Dive Any U.S. Sub Today (And Its Retired)
*Robert Farley* *Security, * The Alfa class was more of a hot rod than as submarine. *The USSR paid dearly for this performance. Nicknamed “golden fish,” the Alfas strained even the massive Soviet submarine building budget. Moreover, they generally proved unreliable in service, requiring expensive and complex maintenance. Soviet ports often lacked the training and equipment necessary to keep the Lyras in working condition. In contrast to most of its other Cold War submarine projects, the USSR built only seven Lyras, one of which was more a prototype than a usable weapon. This fi... more »
Why America's Last Battleships Might Have Been the Best Ever
*Robert Farley* *Security, * Warships like no other. *Various proposals were floated for reactivating the Iowas over the next twenty-five years. New Jersey returned to service in 1968 to bombard North Vietnam, but was soon sent back to mothballs. Some proposals in the late 1970s envisioned the replacement of the aft turret with a flight deck capable of operating helicopters and V/STOL aircraft, but these were rejected because of high cost. At the beginning of the Reagan administration, however, funds began to flow more freely, and plans were hatched to reactivate the four remai... more »

What Do China's Military Strategists Think of the Battle of Midway?
*Lyle J. Goldstein* *Security, Asia* [image: Aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson transits the East China Sea. Flickr/U.S. Navy] China likely recognizes that once wars are started with America, even when militarily successful, they may be extremely difficult to end. Late springtime is a fitting time to contemplate the origins of U.S. maritime supremacy. Over the course of about twenty-four hours in June 1942, U.S. naval aviators turned the whole course of history by putting the Imperial Japanese Navy’s four premier flattops on the bottom. This victory can be attributed in roughly eq... more »
