"A new Israeli proposal for a hostage deal includes...for the 1st time...a suggestion that Israeli leaders are open to discussing an end to the Gaza war as part of a deal." @BarakRavid Could break the stalemate; unclear that Netanyahu's govt can pass it. axios.com/2024/04/27/isr…
“This is the highest-risk pt in terms of the Hezbollah-Israel front since the initial weeks after Oct. 7,” said Rym Momtaz, "There is a lot of reconnaissance-by-fire happening, which is each side testing the limits of the other through live fire attacks.” wsj.com/world/middle-e…
"Moran says she lost 12% of her bodyweight, and her hair, during 54 days in Gaza, and that her body was covered with scars. It is hard for her to imagine what it's like for the hostages still held there, five months on." bbc.co.uk/news/world-mid…

The problem with the 2/2.5% graph (on its own) is that is fails to include the state of the economy. Occasionally, it would be useful to remind ourselves of a real-terms comparison (like this, from @commonslibrary).
“The Biden administration has determined that three Israeli military units and two civilian units have committed “gross human rights violations” against Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. But it will not deny four of them military aid” nytimes.com/live/2024/04/2…
The leader of the Columbia encampment sounds very normal. ‘The student, Khymani James, said in the January video that “Zionists don’t deserve to live” and “Be grateful that I’m not just going out and murdering Zionists.”’ nytimes.com/2024/04/26/nyr…

Not all lessons from Ukraine will apply to NATO militaries, but this is one that will. Russian Orlan ISR UAVs are not very sophisticated but they are cheap and easy to produce. That means Russia produces them in large numbers and they are expendable. But many of the current…
Begging people to read one—one—book covering the history of Jewish emigration to Israel, which countries those people came from, and why. Honestly, even a Wikipedia article would do. To the Iraqis, Yemenis, Moroccans, etc in Israel, this discourse must seem absurd.

@shashj @MTSavill @commonslibrary Augustine’s Law images I took from Wikipedia today. I think I stole this idea from Augustine or someone else, but when I have presented this argument before the next slide was always a picture of this!
@MTSavill @commonslibrary Which in turn takes no account of inflation in the unit costs of defence equipment… exemplified by Augustine’s Law 16:
This is the book I have been waiting for! This eyewitness account of the Battle of #Kyiv from @IAPonomarenko is sure to be a classic.
Can't believe my book on the Battle of Kyiv is out in just 11 days... So much work, so much passion. This is what it is about. A story of the gathering storm of one of the most absurd and unnecessary wars ever, of hope and dedication for what is right... and also a love letter…
This morning the Swedish defence commission presented its report. All parties support most things in the report, incl a budget hike to 2,6%, focus on capabilities here and now, long range fires, more GBAD and drones, more conscripts, more ammo, more personell, adapting to Nato.
This you ?
The US should act on its commitment of not seeking to contain China’s economy, decouple with China or hold back China’s progress in science & technology.
WarGit said that he broadly welcomed the proposals but that anybody who uses the phrase "at pace" ought to be pressed through a sieve.
'University leaders said that they broadly welcomed the proposals for vetting staff and ramping up security around sensitive sites, with one senior figure saying it was clear that the threat was evolving “at pace”.' thetimes.co.uk/article/academ…
@KofmanMichael @shashj If you have ~1000 casualties in 3 days, then you have an average of ~333 per day. Granted it would communicate better it's an estimate if you'd say ~300 per day.
@shashj Actually, the adaptation I would look for is to spray water or waste oil (from an on-board tank) behind the treads to dampen down the dust (e.g., obviously not all the time, but during movement to the LCC position and the line of contact).
@edwardstrngr @shashj In my U.S. Army Infantry Basic Sergeant made it clear our assault team needed to spread out, find cover, and keep moving. As for the enemy, the three f's: find 'em, fix 'em, f*** 'em. Now with drones and heat sensing cameras. New body armour = heat blockers?
@shashj Exactly what we forecast in our Future Operating Concept - written in 2019. It talked about a battle of “hiding and finding” with spread deployment, movement and signature reduction being essential attributes.
It's hard to understand why an economics professor showing concern for a student would be thrown to the ground and arrested. This is not an obvious way to defuse a crisis.
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
