Stevenson’s army, October 10 and 11

I was traveling yesterday, so here is a double edition:

October 11:

– WaPo explains what a siege in Gaza looks like  and how Hamas breached the wall

– NYT assesses Israel’s failures

– WSJ says Hamas got money through crypto financing

– Atlantic reminds what Hamas believes

-Kenya force to Haiti blocked

– Polish generals resign over politicization

– US may send another carrier toward Israel

– Analyst summarizes US failures in Afghanistan

-Op-ed writer says Space Force needs own lobbyist on Hill

October 10:

– At the Atlantic Andrew Exum questions the quality of the IDF conscript soldiers.

– NSC calls for Israel to make “proportionate” response.

– Politico sees a “high tech failure”

– US now calls Niger coup a coup

– DOD seems to run the best schools in US

– Susan Glasser examines Jake Sullivan’s actions on Ukraine.

My SAIS colleague Charlie Stevenson distributes this almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I republish here, with occasional videos of my choice. To get Stevenson’s army by email, send a blank email (no subject or text in the body) to stevensons-army+subscribe@googlegroups.com. You’ll get an email confirming your join request. Click “Join This Group” and follow the instructions to join. Once you have joined, you can adjust your email delivery preferences (if you want every email or a digest of the emails).
