Stevenson’s army, August 2
My SAIS colleague, Charlie Stevenson, distributes an almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I plan to republish here. This is a first tasting. If you want to get it directly, follow the instructions below:
WSJ [alone among the media I see] reports that none of the president’s economic advisers except Peter Navarro supported the new 10% tariffs on Chinese imports.
WaPo has more on the planned reductions in US troops in Afghanistan.
WSJ reports Israel launched two air attacks inside Iraq.
New Republic says swing states get special favors in Congress, like ethanol for Iowa and coal for Pennsylvania.
In my assessment, Lindsey Graham has a lot of pluses and minuses, but this week’s gross abuse of Judiciary Committee rules and norms is a big minus.
[I’m not sure if you can open this, but CFR has a good set of articles on cyber issues.]
