With the Iran war continuing with seemingly no end in sight, what options are available for bringing the war to a satisfactory conclusion? The reality is there are few options available, and none of them come without serious problems.

With the Iran war continuing with seemingly no end in sight, the Senate also recently voted down a war powers resolution, 50-49, that aimed to have President Trump withdraw U.S. forces unless he received specific authorization to continue the conflict. But is simply withdrawing and calling it quits....

As the President ratchets up trade tensions with Canada, our northern neighbor may be looking to Europe to better protect its economic interests and decouple from its relationship with the United States:

U.S.-Canada trade war is reshaping North American economic and security ties as Canada seeks stronger partnerships with Europe and economic independence.

On this 25th anniversary of the terror attacks that forever changed our country, ASP CEO Matthew Wallin explores the feelings he felt that day and offers some lessons learned over the past two and a half decades.

Today marks 25 years after the September 11th attacks, an event that has shaped the trajectory of this country ever since. The memories and experiences of this day continue to affect many, and undoubtedly still color our politics today.

Obesity not only affects the active duty and reserve component, it hits our veterans hard. ASP's Lucas Brooks takes our first look at the challenges our veterans face with their weight and how it might impact readiness:

Until access to treatment options improves, veterans, their communities, the healthcare system, and America’s readiness will continue to pay the price.

Last week, CIA Director Ratcliffe flew to Moscow for discussions on undisclosed issues. Some say it was to warn Putin against attacking NATO. While the message is uncertain, sending the director served as a message all of its own.

Trump appears to have borrowed the CIA’s institutional credibility to boost the power of the message he sent to Moscow.

ASP's president, Lt Gen Norman R. Seip, USAF (Ret.), appeared in National Review this weekend, where he wrote on the need for the U.S. Government and the defense industry to work better together if our country is going to meet its need for abundant, high-quality armaments:

We need to match the high quality of our defense platforms and weapons with speed in producing them.

Tokyo is addressing many of the institutional barriers that have historically limited deeper intelligence cooperation. While membership in the Five Eyes partnership remains far from guaranteed, these reforms bring Japan closer to the standards and capabilities expected within the Five Eyes.

Japan is modernizing its intelligence architecture, raising the prospect of eventually becoming the “Sixth Eye” within the Five Eyes.

The world is still watching the U.S.-Iran war unfold, but state and non-state actors alike have already realized the power of blocking vital bottlenecks. The U.S. and its allies should now anticipate the proliferation of this tactic and prepare accordingly for a new era of geopolitical competition; one in which the global economy is held hostage by actors seeking accessible geopolitical leverage.

Maritime chokepoints have become an inherent vulnerability to the global economy. In the wake of its war with Iran, the U.S. will need to formulate a response strategy.

Ukraine’s long-range bombing campaign on Russian oil infrastructure has disabled 20 to 42.7 percent of Russian refining capacity, leaving Russia with an excess of crude oil and a deficiency in fuel. Russia is currently seeking to import fuel to meet its needs, opening an opportunity to introduce new sanctions on fuel exporters who are now selling to Russia.

Traditionally an exporter of refined petroleum products, Russia is currently seeking to import fuel to meet its needs, opening an opportunity to introduce new sanctions on oil exporters who are now selling to Russia.

The U.S. has reached a decisive moment in maintaining its global favorability and international legitimacy. To maintain its traditional global leadership role, the U.S. must undertake an effort to reassess the misalignment between its actions, its rhetoric, and the perceptions of foreign publics.

A new Pew survey shows China overtaking the U.S. in global favorability for the first time, driven largely by declining confidence that Washington respects its own citizens' freedoms, even as the country works to present a more "uplifting" version of its own history.
