A step-by-step approach to applying the Japanese warrior's mind set
to martial training and daily life.
Escalation is a natural tendency in any form of human competition,
and today's security environment demands that the United States be
prepared for a host of escalatory threats. This analysis of
escalation dynamics and approaches to escalation management draws
on a range of historical examples from World War I to the struggle
against global Jihad to inform escalation-related decisionmaking.
In 1959, Alexander George reconstructed a methodology the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) used to analyze Nazi propaganda
during World War II. This same methodology, with adjustments for
differences in culture and ideology, might have been used to
analyze North Vietnamese propaganda to help evaluate the
effectiveness of America's coercive air campaign against North
Vietnam. Throughout the war, North Vietnamese leaders used
political propaganda to manipulate the opinions of the people it
controlled and others they wished to influence. The analysis of
this propaganda during Operation Rolling Thunder suggests the
North's decision calculus remained insensitive to the effects of
bombing, which helps explain why Rolling Thunder was unsuccessful
in compelling Hanoi to stop supporting the insurgency against South
Vietnam.
This report examines how Joint Task Force Haiti (JTF-Haiti)
supported the humanitarian assistance and disaster relief efforts
in Haiti. It focuses on how JTF-Haiti was organized, how it
conducted Operation Unified Response, and how the U.S. Army
supported that effort. The analysis includes a review of existing
authorities and organizations and explains how JTF-Haiti fit into
the U.S. whole-of-government approach and the international
response.
Space stability appears to be eroding as a growing number of states
acquire the ability to degrade or destroy U.S. space assets. The
United States needs a coordinated national space deterrence
strategy designed to operate on both sides of a potential
adversary1s cost-benefit decision calculus. Future research will
determine the most effective and affordable mix of strategies,
policies, and systems for strengthening space deterrence.
