Many concessions that #Iran   claims it could get from the #MOU have regional implications but as I wrote #Iran 's requirement that ships notify it & pay fees for transiting the #StraitofHormuz could have immediate global ramifications ssi.armywarcollege.edu/SSI-Media/Re...

⚠️ New Publication ⚠️ #Iran is trying to get the right to charge a toll on the #StraitofHormuz. I teamed up with the always great Dr. Daphne Richemond-Barak & @justsecurity.org to examine what this would mean for US strategy, international law, and the world. www.justsecurity.org/137610/iran-...

With the #Strait of #Hormuz closed & #Iran not negotiating what military options does the #US have to end the #IranWar‌? My latest article with SSI @armyuniversity.bsky.social examines the strategic opportunities & risks of seizing islands in the #PerisanGulf ssi.armywarcollege.edu/SSI-Media/Re...

With the loss on the ground of an E-3 there has been much talk about whether it could have been anticipated. In September I published an article on @balloons2drones.bsky.social warning of such an incident & what we need to do to prevent it. balloonstodrones.com/2025/09/30/c...

⚠️ New Publication ⚠️ With the #StraitsofHormuz closed & #Iran continuing attacks around the #MiddleEast the cost of continuing the #IranWar‌ is clear but what about the strategic cost of ending it? Check out my latest publication with @timesofisrael.com blogs.timesofisrael.com/the-cost-of-...

#Hamas may have signed a #ceasefire that will bring an international force to #Israel & #Gaza but that doesn't mean it has given up - the @timesofisrael.com published my thoughts on how #Hamas will try to undermine international efforts to bring #Peace blogs.timesofisrael.com/hamass-strat...

One potential contributing country for an International Security Force for #Gaza is #Indonesia - which is why I'm particularly excited to see an article I co-wrote with @nirarielli.bsky.social on it will take to succeed published by the Jakarta Post! www.thejakartapost.com/opinion/2025...

Very excited to be participating in the @rusi.bsky.social #LandWarfareConference - I will be speaking tomorrow but looking forward to today's presentations & discussions!

I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed on the history of #women in #combat and the differences between #Israel and #NATO for a @wsj.com article! It was a great conversation, most of which didn't make it into the article, which is behind a pay wall. www.wsj.com/world/middle...

What can #US #AirPower achieve against the #Houthis in #Yemen? What are the limit of what strategic air power can achieve? Check out my latest article in @balloons2drones.bsky.social! balloonstodrones.com/2025/05/06/c...

There are a lot of positive signs in #Lebanon but #Hezbollah still wants to attack #Israel & poses a threat to peace & security... @nirarielli.bsky.social, Mary Elizabeth Walters and I discussed how to change this in our latest article in @newsweek.com www.newsweek.com/how-turn-fra...

Great to have had the chance to talk to the community in #KansasCity - the discussion was fantastic & I got some great questions. I love the chance to get beyond the military, policy, and academic environment - thank you Kehilath Israel for giving me the opportunity! www.kcjc.com/current-news...

The attitudes that @jsargentr.bsky.social reports are common and why the #UrbanWarfareCenter was created. There is now a good community of people across multiple countries providing expertise on the issue....and yet it remains an uphill battle to get the #Army to really care.

I am excited that the first episode of a series about #OCT7, #Israel, & the wars in #Lebanon & #Gaza that I recorded with #TheOperationalArch podcast by the School of Advanced Military Studies is now available! Check it out here! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... open.spotify.com/show/6H5tqk4...
