Not an attempt at humour: the Columbia student/envoy demanding that the University feed the hall-occupiers is a reminder that supply & logistics matter in conflict, especially long ones, just as much as wider strategy. Need to realise this isn't a mere protest.
NATO needs to be focusing less, not more on the Indo-Pacific! Check out my recent piece with my friend @paulvanhooft for @Atl_Comm here in the Netherlands. @hcssnl @warstudies atlcom.nl/artikel-atlant…

As MPs debate assisted dying, here’s why having once supported it I now find it v hard to do so. I think state-sanctioned wrongful deaths will be inevitable. When the right to die becomes the duty to die, who will step in to save those most at risk? theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
„Firms in China have provided Russia with semiconductors that are crucial for making various weapon systems. They have also provided navigation equipment, parts for jets, and more generic products such as ball bearings, used in artillery pieces and other equipment.“

Bruno, you don't really think IR profs should stop talking about Ukraine, surely? Important crisis. Or, as author suggests, only ones w/maximalist hawkish views should give views? Telling people you disagree with, as he does, to shut up is intellectually vacuous & likely to fail.

I commend this article to you, with a brief prehistory of how NATO and other powers have developed their own doctrines of terminating losing wars via (last ditch) battlefield nuclear use. foreignaffairs.com/united-states/…

I offer Keir Starmer some unsolicited advice. If Labour wins, he'll want to focus primarily on domestic priorities, promises and problems. But the international anarchic world will still bear down on the UK, & crises will erupt, so better to think hard about foreign policy now.

Instead of announcing grand new doctrines, writes @PatPorter76, Keir Starmer should embrace a very British realism thecritic.co.uk/dear-keir-get-…
Nuclear-armed powers plan, in extremis, to use weapons against military forces to forestall defeat over core areas/interests by shocking an adversary into backing off. NATO's own doctrine in the late Cold War, eg. It's not conclusive, but a closer analogue than Vietnam.

Let's say that's true. It doesn't follow that Britain should run this errand & insert a military force, inviting fire, in a clash that is peripheral to its interests. If trying to make a humanitarian difference there does matter, withhold support to Netanyahu.

The very act of sanctioning Russia also reduces Europe's containment capacity v China.

Even merciless sanctions struggle to deter determined adversaries. Especially ones, like China, that respond to the threat of them with sanctions-proofing measures, & who Europe probably can't afford to cut off anyway.

Its quite untrue, historically, that Israel must exterminate- not just contain- its adversaries in order to attract partners or alliances. Thomas Friedman, once again, filling in his ignorance with his simpleton theory of credibility.

China continues to push ahead with strategic infrastructure along the Line of Actual Control with India. Note too: there are up to 150,000 PLA deployed along the frontier. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/china-co…

@gregmitrovich @slantchev @DrRadchenko @PopovaProf @PatPorter76 On the one hand, nuclear use is unlikely and there are escalation steps short of use that Putin could take e.g. a testing resumption. On the other hand, we just don't know. The risk shouldn't diminish Western aid to Ukraine, but should counter ideas such as a NATO NFZ or NDZ...
Because the person delivering it holds a different view from you and lives in a free country. It’s not enormously complex.
Why on earth is R4’s Thought for the Day being used as a campaigning platform against assisted dying?! #r4Today
So because gay people can get married now people like me need to be subjected to a cultural order where we’re seen as superfluous biomass awaiting disposal via a state-sanctioned mass suicide machine? No thanks.
For 50-years we've had a legal choice over who to love, for a decade we've had a legal choice over who we can marry. The time has come for Parliament to vote on changing the law to allow assisted dying, to help prevent terminally ill people from suffering very painful deaths.
@PatPorter76 There are so many reasons to withdraw support to Netanyahu, both security-strategic and humanitarian.
@PatPorter76 ‘Muddling through is overrated’; superb line.
I just heard Kit Malthouse make light of these sorts of concerns in the debate yesterday on Radio 4, ridiculing the idea we’re a “nation of granny killers.” So troubling that some MPs clearly don’t have the first clue about coercive control in family relationships.
As MPs debate assisted dying, here’s why having once supported it I now find it v hard to do so. I think state-sanctioned wrongful deaths will be inevitable. When the right to die becomes the duty to die, who will step in to save those most at risk? theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
"There must be a general election," said Sturgeon when the UK prime ministers changed; it's a "democratic necessity", she claimed. Presumably, she holds the same view now about the change of first ministers in Scotland?
As Sturgeon explains, there must now be a Scottish election. Or does that kind of thing only work if it’s Toaries and Westminster?
@PatPorter76 It's a pamphlet. I don't agree with the first-degree, literal interpretation of the headline. Also - you don't fall into his category :)
@gregmitrovich @slantchev @DrRadchenko @PopovaProf @PatPorter76 Note that the US did not lose 12% of its active military personnel (annual average) in only 3 years in Korea or Vietnam. Nor was the US subjected to deep cross-border attacks.
@gregmitrovich @DrRadchenko @PopovaProf @slantchev @PatPorter76 We don't have another case of a nuclear-armed power which has suffered as much damage as Russia has for its war of choice against a neighbor. And who can prevail on Moscow today the way the US did on Israel in 1973 or India and Pakistan in 1999? Perhaps, China,
While there is good reason to believe that the Russian regime engages in nuclear blackmail and nuclear bluff, there is no reason to suppose that it *always* bluffs and will bluff, irrespective of circumstances. My original tweet indicates the importance of, shall we say,…
It is telling that so many of RIS’s most cited articles are dedicated to IR theory; perhaps the case for its “death” or “end” is overstated? This is the second most cited article of a year on Carr alone.
They had invaded China on land and picked a fight with the US at sea.
Japan after 1942 was unstoppable, how did they fumble so hard
Ah, to be able to write regularly for an influential publication while enjoying an unlimited expense account. Why does such a position go to such a twit?
Its quite untrue, historically, that Israel must exterminate- not just contain- its adversaries in order to attract partners or alliances. Thomas Friedman, once again, filling in his ignorance with his simpleton theory of credibility.

I'll trade for the days when they, or some of them, read these authors, and when it was harder to get a machine to write an essay.
US Amb to NATO expects allies at Washington Summit to “construct a bridge to membership by offering Ukraine a deliverable that will enable them to become even closer to this alliance.” Part business-school mumbo-jumbo, part false hope.
“We’ve been clear since 2008 that 🇺🇦 Ukraine will become a member of the Alliance,” @USAmbNATO tells @AndrewDesiderio. “We reaffirmed that last year at the Vilnius Summit,” she adds. Watch more: ➡️ bit.ly/3Ue9VTM
The below is a pure lie. "The terrifying truth about nuclear war...is the insane time clock that was put on everything from the moment nuclear launch is detected. This is fact. And so is the fact that POTUS has only 6 minutes...to make this decision." politi.co/4aUnTkL
