U.S. Navy Destroyers Could Soon Be Shooting Down Enemy ICBMs
Kris Osborn, The National Interest - 6 hours ago
*Kris Osborn* *Security, Americas* Could hypersonic missiles be next? *Here's What You Need to Remember: *There is yet another interesting tactical possibility here which might include the idea that a highly-precise, larger and long-range SM-3 IIA interceptor could be used to intercept hypersonic weapons.

Phil, All That Is Solid ... - 6 hours ago
When my friend Lewis Bassett tweeted earlier about how he thought the left "might fare better if it tried to get over Jeremy Corbyn a bit", I winced. Because I knew he was setting himself up for a world of pain. Some of the replies inevitably cast him into darkened recesses from where they hope he may never emerge. Others pointed out that as Corbyn is central to moves against the left, it was foolish and wrong to talk about abandoning him. And others suggested he's not the real target at all - the person of Corbyn is the focal point of a movement he (inadvertently) condensed and gav...
