Stevenson’s army, September 21
- I agree with this Lawfare piece arguing that civilian control of special operations has weakened and should be strengthened.
- SAIS Prof Vali Nasr describes Iran’s response to Trump sanctions.
- Jamelle Bouie says Facebook is undermining democracy worldwide.
- Former HASC chairman Thornberry describes NDAA negotiations.
- WOTR piece says we have too many myths about Chinese nuclear weapons.
- NYT says Cuba has a food crisis. [Remember, Cuba is an issue in this week’s exercise.]
- New book argues that most presidents criticize, manipulate, and restrict the press. Looks like a good book.
My SAIS colleague Charlie Stevenson distributes this almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I plan to republish here. To get Stevenson’s army by email, send a blank email (no subject or text in the body) to stevensons-army+subscribe@googlegroups.com. You’ll get an email confirming your join request.
