Dr. Henne contends that while Israel’s post-October 7 campaign in Gaza has achieved tactical successes — destroying roughly 80% of Hamas’s Rafah tunnel network, carrying out decapitation strikes against key leaders, and securing the release of over 100 hostages — it has failed to meet its strategic objectives, as evidenced by remaining hostages, new fronts opening with Hezbollah and Iran, and the IDF’s repeated need to re-clear contested areas in what critics term an “endless war." He argues that shifting the debate from moral and legal questions to the strategic efficacy of Israel’s actions could promote a more restrained or diplomatic approach to resolving the conflict.

Following Putin’s June 2024 visit to Pyongyang — and the signing of a “comprehensive strategic partnership” featuring mutual‑defense guarantees — North Korea has deepened its support for Russia, supplying ammunition, missiles, and potentially special operations troops. This alliance marks a major shift for Moscow, which will no longer support UN sanctions on North Korea, and could embolden Pyongyang to escalate provocations against South Korea, risking a broader conflict. For Beijing, the challenge is managing this growing Russia-North Korea alignment: China must navigate between its leverage over both nations and the need to avoid being pulled into aggressive moves that could destabilize the region and strengthen U.S.-South Korea-Japan security cooperation.

The piece explores how the U.S. Congress exhibits a clear duality on the Israel–Palestine issue: while it consistently provides strong military and political support to Israel, it also expresses concern over humanitarian conditions for Palestinians. Lawmakers largely reaffirm Israel’s security needs, yet some voices within Congress maintain pressure for accountability regarding civilian suffering and human rights in Gaza. This dual stance reflects the challenge of balancing strategic alliances with ethical considerations, ultimately shaping U.S. policy toward a narrowly focused approach.

This piece presents a provocative perspective on nuclear weapons proliferation. Tchantouridze argues that the traditional approach of non-proliferation, which aims to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, may no longer be effective or realistic in the current global landscape. He suggests that a controlled proliferation strategy, where more nations possess nuclear capabilities under regulated conditions, could potentially enhance global stability by deterring aggressive actions and promoting a balance of power. This approach challenges conventional wisdom and invites readers to reconsider the dynamics of nuclear diplomacy and security in the modern era.

This article discusses the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran following a series of Iranian missile attacks on Israeli territory. Iran launched at least 180 missiles into Israel, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing hostilities. This barrage was reportedly in retaliation for Israel's recent strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon, an Iran-backed militant group. The article examines the potential implications of this escalation, considering Israel's possible military responses and the broader regional security dynamics. The situation underscores the fragile security environment in the Middle East and the risks of further escalation into a wider regional conflict.
