  • Congress Needs to Do More Than Just Exercise Its War Powers 19/03/2024
    When it comes to bombing Yemen, Congress seems more interested in being consulted than in the substance of that consultation. When the Biden administration began striking Houthi positions earlier this year, members of Congress from across the ideological spectrum took to social media to decry these strikes — but their criticism focused almost entirely on […]
  • Professionalism is the Foundation of the Army and We Will Strengthen It 18/03/2024
    In my nearly 37 years of service, I’ve seen the strength of the Army profession in action — in the courage and dedication of our soldiers, leaders, and army civilian professionals on the battlefield and in garrison. I observed that strength watching a company commander display his professional competence and leadership while driving conversation during […]

  • Mid-Afternoon Map: Nostalgia for the Non-Existent 15/03/2024
    There’s been a great deal of discussion about the decline of Western civilization over the past few centuries. I suppose at some point it’s inevitable, but after hundreds of years of crying wolf, it’s increasingly difficult to get alarmed. Periods of intense civilizational self-confidence have consistently been followed by periods of agonizing self-doubt before the […]

    On the most recent episode of The Russia Contingency podcast, Michael Kofman and Rob Lee discussed a variety of structural factors impacting Ukraine’s ability to fight, from drones to manpower, ammunition to motivation.

  • Rewind and Reconnoiter: War Won’t Be Coming Back to the Balkans with Dimitar Bechev 14/03/2024
    In 2022, Dimitar Bechev wrote “War Won’t be Coming Back to the Balkans” for War on the Rocks, in which he argues that, “while Russia has an incentive to open a second front against the West, its partners and fellow travelers in the Balkans have much to lose from an escalation.” If Europe applied pressure and […]
  • Competing for Influence in Latin America 14/03/2024
    Chris, Melanie and Zack take a close look at the United States’ relationship with countries in Latin America. Why has the United States neglected Latin America in the last several decades?

  • Strategic Myopia: The Proposed First Use of Tactical Nuclear Weapons to Defend Taiwan 14/03/2024
    The United States first deployed nuclear weapons in Europe in September 1954.

  • Admiral Raoul Castex: The Naval Strategist for Non-Hegemons 13/03/2024
    French Navy Adm. Raoul Castex (1878–1968) is the greatest naval strategist you probably never heard of.

André Beaufre (1902–75), as well as the two giants of modern naval strategy, the American Alfred Thayer Mahan (1840–1914) and Britain’s Julian Corbett […]
  • Win-Wind: How a Bipartisan SHIPS Act Could Meet China and Climate Challenges 12/03/2024
    The United States faces two serious challenges: China and climate change. Ships can help solve both of them. China is run by an authoritarian and increasingly militarily capable government determined to reshape the international order. Climate change, meanwhile, threatens future generations — and our own. Expanding military shipbuilding will mitigate these risks by deterring a […]

  • The British Army and the Lessons of the Boer War 11/03/2024

  • U.S. Troops in Syria Are Critical For Multiple Missions: Keep Them On 08/03/2024

  • Send in the A-Team: A Graduated Response for Ukraine 07/03/2024
    Of all the symbols of American power abroad, the U.S. special operations soldier occupies a unique place in the public’s imagination. The public appetite for tales of derring-do and gutsy ventures is limitless, and U.S. special operations provide enough of these, routinely and visibly, to propel that mystique. Such publicity obscures a less splashy type […]
  • Drones, the Air Littoral, and the Looming Irrelevance of the U.S. Air Force 07/03/2024
    Today, the U.S. Air Force faces an almost-existential crisis.
