Like most of my generation, I was born in 1976, much of my adult life has, at least partially, been defined by the events of 9\/11. As the Taliban completes conquest of Afghanistan after seizing Panjshir <\/a>\u2013 Long War Journal, soul searching on the war on terror has begun in earnest with the 20th<\/sup> Anniversary just around the corner. Netflix provides and interesting perspective with:  Turning Point: 9\/11 and the War on Terror<\/a>. There are so many things there that I had forgotten and some interviews and audio recordings that I had never seen or heard. Can\u2019t watch or don\u2019t have Netflix? Just Security has you covered with: Introduction to a Symposium: How Perpetual War Has Changed Us \u2014 Reflections on the Anniversary of 9\/11<\/a>. There are plenty of other takes but these are two that I found particularly thought provoking even though I don\u2019t necessarily agree with some of the conclusions. Radio Free Europe provides another interesting take on Pakistan\u2019s role in the entire conflict with: Spy Chief’s Visit With Taliban Underscores Pakistan’s Victory In Afghanistan<\/a>. According to the experts, the Pakistan \u2013 Taliban relationship is\u2026complicated with some believing they provide open support while others argue there is growing concern. For something completely different, how about The James Webb telescope has a bona fide launch date<\/a> from Ars Technica. It\u2019s just a little behind schedule and over budget\u2026.All of this and so much more in our Two Day Push!<\/p>\n

Inspired by the Cognitive Raider Initiative, The Cognitive Warrior Project has put together a daily list of diverse articles that can easily be chosen from to play a part in developing a more mentally agile warfighter that embraces the adaptation required for tomorrow\u2019s battlefield. Our intent is to create a space where you can choose one or two articles a day (about 10 minutes) instead of mindlessly scrolling social media.<\/p>\n
