Chinese on-line propaganda is so ineffectually heavy-handed that in the last Taiwan elections it actually hurt the pro-Beijing candidate. But when US "influencers " do it, can be efficiently deceptive to safeguard PRC interests, e.g on Tik Tok youtube.com/watch?v=xEDGZl…
When Israel was attacked by Iran's ballistic missiles it had its "Arrow" ballistic missile defense up & running & near 100% effective & very very cheap. How come ? Because Israel 's R&D and production are like their US counterparts until strangled by a jungle of regulations....
OTAs are only of use to non-profits, none of which, not even Rand Corp, has made even a prototype of a useful piece of defense equipment. We need an open-door DoD office where inventions can be presented in prototype form without tends of thousands of pages of prior submissions

The jungle of Def procurement regulations favors oligopolistic big contractors with more lawyers & lobbyists than engineers. Drastic simplification would allow inventors & new contractors to come forward with their prototypes for hands-on testing & demonstration.
The 1987 Defense Reorganization Act centralized higher military command ending the sharing out of roles (eg the Desert One disaster: Marine pilots for Navy helicopters to carry Army troops w US Air Force refueling). Needed now Act II: Procurement deregulation for new entrants
W Israel fighting on 3 fronts one would have imagined that it could count on the support of the "professional Jews" in US politics. E.g Rep Jamie Raskin in MD. He just won the Scharf Moriz prize by voting against funds for Israel's weapon imports from the US, mostly defensive.
The 1987 Defense Reorganization Law quickly tested in the Gulf War & triumphantly vindicated (Colin Powell could provide command unity) now needs Act II : procurement reform, w the deletion of 25,000+ regulations that favor Lockheed etc with more lawyers than engineers
Reform Jews & ex-Jews in US politics expect, even demand the support of Jewish voters even if they vote against US defense spending, which is essential to maintain the world order on which we all depend. Now they vote against Israel too (eg Raskin in MD, a.k.a Scharf Moritz).
At last there is clarity on the inordinate delay of the IDF over the Hamas remnant in Rafah-the simple military decision was entangled in complex negotiations w friendly Sunni powers over post-combat responsibilities, including protecting Gaza civilians viz. now hated Hamas
The crisis in US military policy is driven by an elemental problem: the impossibility of exploiting today's cheap yet effective military technology exemplified by attack drones because of thousands of outdated regulations & adversarial T&E w lawyers viz engineers.

The indispensible CANARY MISSION website is down. Who is doing that ? Iran ? EW contractors working for Hamas ? Who knows : but be sure that the money comes from tax-exempt foundations such as the Rockefellers Brothers Fund. Look up the board members.
No investigative reporter has revealed to the public the role of salaried agitators in spreading Hamas propaganda across the US: they come with PLO flags, posters and "get things started". Who pays / Tax-Exempt foundations
Bing West "The U.S. Navy has expended $1 billion, firing $2 million missiles to shoot down Iranian Shahed drones costing $20,000 ". Yes, a $,3000 killer RPV could do it, but DoD does not have an open door for inventors & demands compliance with thousands of regulations before…
Cheap drones are today's munitions NOT platforms but Pentagon procurement under thousands of regulations makes cheap impossible: the Replicator program for "cheap” drones starts at $30,000 & most are over $250,000. Bing West National Review "America’s Military Isn’t Providing…
Amazon sells "Queers for Palestine" T-shirts for $19.99. I do hope that they attract many anti-Zionist buyers who will wear them on their solidarity trips to the Middle East, for which they only need a one-way fare.
TV & newspapers report the spread of Palestine agitations without including 1 word about the salaried "spreaders" funded by the Rockefellers Brothers fund & others such who arrive with flags and posters to agitate the idle, the confused, the ignorant ..and the deeply malevolent.
Michael Pettis has long supplied the only analysis needed on China's macroeconomy: inflation-phobic policies inhibit Gov reactions to the deflationary tsunami of the construction collapse. Meanwhile: w its ageing pop China's share of global GDP is falling not rising.
In the indispensable: [email protected] April 26 I read Park Macdougald: the agitators of the students at Columbia et al (who have dropped the mask to call for the death of all Zionists) are salaried by the Rockefellers brothers funds, Soros etc. Needed: material action
NYT Apr 27 : Thomas L . Friedman:Israel Has a Choice to Make: Rafah or Riyadh. Friedman's Arafat delusion over decades did not cost him his job & now he is 100% wrong again. The Saudis want a strong Israel as a partner viz Iran, not an Israel that cannot finish the job.

In Italy the population is prevalently centrist & pro-Western but ex-Prime Ministers function as Beijing & Moscow agents, few read the balanced newspapers, and depend on TV news programs run by covertly anti-American leftists. Scandal: no US ambassador; only a charge' d' affaires
Prudent poker player Putin who four times rose from the table with imperial gains (Abkhazia, S Ossetia, Crimea & this month, Belarus), is suddenly gambling recklessly at the roulette table by invading Europe's largest country with an army much too small for the task. Finis Putin
@PaulOPinion @ELuttwak Yep, including their kids.
Vice President @AmrullahSaleh2 forming a resistance force and want to start from Panjshir province which is about three hours from Kabul. Ahmad Shah Massoud's son and defence minister Bismillah Mohammadi with him. It doesn't feel like they are about to give up without a fight
China's gutter press keeps writing that the virus was brought to Wuhan by US visitors. Knowing full well that it started in the "bat lady's" sloppy lab, & seeing how UK & US scientists covered up for them just to hit at Trump, the Global Times's Dr Goebbels enjoys the effrontery
Biden is criticized for abandoning Afghan women to Afghan men. Reports that captured villages must provide brides for the warriors (no more than 4 each under Muslim law) should be investigated in situ & non-Eurocentrically by a Congressional delegation, headed by Rep. Ilhan Omar.
They ask: when will Biden meet Xi Jinping ? The latter's gain is the legitimization of his rule, "wolf" diplomacy (Canada, Australia) & sharpened repression included. Where is the US gain ? Concessions of course, from previous leaders. But Xi gave nothing for his 2015 WH visit
An alliance built day by day: the Brit Gov also rejects China's ocean claims & will send the Royal Navy's new aircraft carrier to say so. "Toothless lion" ? OK, but it is fact that RN subs would come along & they could sink every significant Chinese warship at sea, all alone.
Too late, Trump: "I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order respect the Law.". All agree that Kennedy won in 1960 because of fraud in Chicago & Texas. But Nixon patriotically refused legal remedies

Huawei complains that the US is "leveraging its own technological strength to crush companies outside its own borders". Very true, but of only 1 company: Huawei. At Davos, 2 years ago it boasted that it would crush US competitors. Now it seeks sympathy for its backward tech.
