Daily aggregation of various news articles for a broad range of interests.
It has been a looong time since I have taken the time to write. Mostly because I have been busy with my actual job, side projects and a change to the kids’ school schedule, but honestly one of the biggest factors was the war in Ukraine. It caught me so off guard
Daily Dump: Resistance, Vultures and More – February 1, 2022
Resistance is the unifying theme of the day as it takes all forms in stories from around the world. We could consult the bible of Resistance from ARIS Studies but we will stick to the headlines. Did you know there was a breakaway province in Moldova? I didn’t but does it
Daily Dump: Spheres of Influence, Taiwan and the Greater Pacific, War and Disease, The Betrayal and More: January 21, 2022
Ukraine and Taiwan dominate the headlines today and their stories, rightly or wrongly, are being linked together but I agree with the basic premise of the War on the Rocks: Taiwan Is Not Ukraine: Stop Linking Their Fates Together. In the current geopolitical moment, the
Daily Dump: The Intersection of Terrorism,Good Governance and Great Power Competition, Not One Inch, Genocide, Citizen Resistance and More – January 24-26, 2022
It is not every day that the headlines are filled with articles that cover the intersection of Good Governance, Terrorism and Great Power Competition (actually it probably is) but for Today’s Daily Dump, that is where we will focus. To demonstrate the convergence of the
Daily Dump: An Outlier in Germany, France’s Vision, Turning Insurgents into Commandos, A Declining Birth Rate and More – January 20, 2021
A day late again. In my defense, I was watching a friend’s 2-year old and it has been a while. Once again, no unifying themes in our Daily Dump… Today we will discuss some of the stories that we would normally overlook. I know that, as far as the news goes, most are talking
Daily Dump: Afghanistan-Pakistan Border Creates an Opportunity, The Kazakhstan – Russia – China Nexus, Nukes and More – January 19, 2022
Today, we go all over the place in our featured articles with a couple throwbacks to links from several days ago on stories that we may have missed or didn’t have an opportunity to dive further into. To start things off, we will go to Afghanistan and the Afghanistan-Pakistan
Daily Dump: The Texture of War, NATO, Ukraine and Russia, Playing Devil’s Advocate and More – January 18, 2022
Before we dive into the big news of the day, I’d like to bring your attention to a couple podcasts that I think are definitely worth your time: The Texture of War in Afghanistan’s Pech Valley: Part 1 – Horns of Dilemma The Texture of War in Afghanistan’s Pech Valley: Part 2
Daily Dump: Trouble with Narratives, Huawei, Spying, Espionage, Hacking and More – January 13, 2022
I had high hopes for this post and was going to write about the drone war but sometimes the stories don’t fit the narrative that you thought, so, I am giving up and just hitting publish. This post is technically 4 days late already. I was scrolling through Twitter the
Daily Dump: Kazakhstan, Russia – Ukraine – NATO, Afghanistan, Gitmo and More – January 11, 2022
No theme today as we are going every direction to catch-up with most of the big stories we have discussed the last few months and then one final rather unexpected story that I had no idea was turning 20. Our first stop on our trip around the world we will go to the story
Daily Dump: Russia and Ukraine, Russia and NATO, Russia and Kazakhstan and More– January 10, 2022
Since this post is hitting the internet a day later than I had anticipated, we get a new introduction… the other one wasn’t that good anyway. I tried to be cute with a headline and I don’t think it would have aged well. Lot’s of news centered around Russia
