The Justice Department has sent F.B.I. agents to reporters’ homes to serve subpoenas and, in at least one case, flashed a warrant to seize devices. The Pentagon has fired the editor and publisher of its traditionally independent newspaper, Stars and Stripes, and blocked access to other journalists who refused to sign pledges that would limit their reporting.

The next 9/11, or far worse, is there in plain sight. Yet apparently it is communism not AI that threatens America. Me on Dallas, Trump and our unlearning species. Free to read.

Twenty-five years after the September 11 attacks, the war on terrorism has reshaped U.S. foreign policy, national security, and the way Americans think about safety itself. What did the United States get right—and wrong—in the decades that followed? And how did the threat evolve from al-Qaeda to ISIS to a new landscape of domestic and online vulnerabilities? I

General David Petraeus discusses autonomous warfare, drone technology and the military transformation driven by Ukraine. Ukraine offers the clearest evidence that warfare is changing in revolutionary ways. Unmanned systems now account for nearly 90% of Russia’s killed and wounded on the front line, with around eight million drones produced by Ukraine every year. Software is updated weekly and hardware every few weeks, a pace no Western procurement system matches.
Traditional armoured manoeuvre has effectively stopped, replaced by a dense zone of surveillance and strike drones along the front. For Gen. Petraeus, Senior Vice President of RUSI, this demands a complete institutional overhaul, covering doctrine, force structure, training, procurement and personnel, on a scale far beyond the changes he oversaw during the Iraq surge.
He argues the UK is unusually well placed to lead this shift, given its visibility into the Ukrainian battlefield, political continuity across governments, and a parliamentary system that can move fast, though entrenched interests in legacy platforms will resist the change required. This interview is featured in the latest episode of the RUSI podcast ‘Global Security Briefing’: https://www.rusi.org/publication/epis.
