The life of Bright Sheng comes full circle!*SATURDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2021* *The way we look to The Lesser Breed:* Bright Sheng is an American composer. The record shows he was born long ago, though perhaps not so far away: *Bright Sheng was born in Shanghai, China on December 6, 1955*. His mother had been his first piano teacher, having started learning at the age of four. *When the Cultural Revolution began, his home's piano was taken away by the Red Guards.* Sheng went back to playing a year later, using his school's since he didn't have one at home. Shortly thereafter, he decided to play piano for the rest of his life, al... read more

Russia’s Neighbors Have More Leverage Than They Think*Kenneth Yalowitz, William Courtney* *Russia, Eurasia* While Ukraine, Belarus, and Georgia may be top priorities for Russia, Moscow has less room for maneuver than its power might suggest. If the Belarus opposition had won the Nobel Peace Prize, as some thought it might, anti-government protests could have again engulfed Minsk and heightened anti-Kremlin sentiments. This scenario underscores the complexities Russia faces in seeking to influence or dominate post-Soviet neighbors. Despite their three decades of independence, the Kremlin seems to view neighbors as less than fully so... read more

Back to the Future: Is ‘Integrated Deterrence’ the New ‘Flexible Response?’*Michael Clarke* *Integrated Deterrence, United States* The Biden administration’s strategy for countering China recalls John F. Kennedy’s plan to deter the Soviet Union. But the Biden administration would do well to learn some of the pitfalls that came with Kennedy’s idea of flexible response. The concept of “integrated deterrence” has now been identified by the Biden administration as central to the development of its forthcoming 2022 National Security Strategy.

James Madison has said that the American Revolution was driven by the “sacred fire of liberty.” But liberty for whom? The Declaration of Independence begins with these lines: “We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness…”—this sounds like a triumph of liberty, equality, and fraternity.

There’s Still Much to Learn from WWII’s Guadalcanal Campaign*James Holmes* *World War II, Asia-Pacific* Not bad for an old fight over seemingly worthless ground. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *Guadalcanal, then, teaches that lesser priorities can upstage operations in ostensibly more pressing theaters of conflict. Strategists constantly evaluate and reevaluate their relative importance. The campaign also reminds us that strategists don’t vary radically from place to place or time to time. This year marks the seventy-ninth anniversary of the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands. The battle is one of seven naval engagements that—together ... read more

Don't Underestimate Singapore's Air Force*Charlie Gao* *Singapore, Southeast Asia* Being a tiny city-state, one of the strongest arms of the Singaporean military is the Republic of Singapore Air Force. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *Overall, unlike their neighbors, Singapore has gone “all in” with Western tech. The common origins of their aircraft probably make resupply and maintenance easier. This trend looks to continue now that Singapore is looking into the F-35 as a replacement for their F-5Es. Despite its small geographical size, Singapore fields one of the most advanced and well-equipped militaries in South ... read more

Why China Won't Repeat Imperial Japan's Naval Failures*James Holmes* *Pearl Harbor, Asia-Pacific* Don’t jab a sleeping giant, and if you do, don’t steel his resolve. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *China, unlike Japan, appears content to build up naval and air power along its periphery in hopes of rewriting the rules of the Asian order—the liberal order of seagoing trade and commerce over which America has presided since Japan’s downfall in 1945. While sometimes bellicose and always assertive, Beijing does not appear eager to pick a fight. It doesn’t appear to be in any particular hurry to fulfill its maritime destiny. As we af... read more

Can The Russian Kornet Missile Defeat US Aircraft Carriers?*Charlie Gao* *Kornet Missile, Russia* Aircraft carriers face a litany of threats in the modern age, but the U.S. Navy has spent the last half-century thinking of ways to defeat threats to them. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *It’s unlikely that a thermobaric Kornet would make its way through the hull, though it probably would leave a significant dent or create spalling on the other side. Could Russian Kornet Anti-Tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs) *attack* the USS *Abraham Lincoln*, a *Nimitz*-class aircraft carrier? Using limited analysis of the capabilities of the Kornet and th... read more

Statism vs Individualism, Globalism and the New Warfare World OrderBy Steve Brown… The west is (undeniably) in rapid decline. It’s ever more evident.

One-half century later those smoky mirrors reflect a most extraordinary kettle of monetary tricks from ubiquitous dollar derivatives, to the most bizarre […] read more
