Daily aggregation of various news articles for a broad range of interests.
I’ve got two very different videos for you today. The first, the latest from Cappy Army, is quite good. It tells the story of Vitor Bout, who went from military translator to international arms dealer. From the description: Viktor Bout went from Soviet military
Defining Asymmetric Warfare
Twice a week, I get to drive Number 3 and two other girls from the neighborhood to school, and on this last trip we listened to the latest episode of the President’s Daily Brief (her idea) and talked about Asymmetric Warfare. Really, she was trying to prepare for a
The Plague and Biological Warfare

The Future of Warfare, a Company to Watch, and Shipping
There was some big news announced last week regarding warfare that you might have missed. BREAKING: @Saronic plans to deploy $3.2 billion to build a next-generation shipyard in Brownsville, Texas, where it will scale production of autonomous vessels.
