  • Trump 2.0 and the fracture of US cyber power *
    (Military Times) China’s cyber targeting took a dangerous turn in 2024. No longer content with espionage, Beijing has started laying the foundation for destructive cyberattacks on American networks. And yet, the new Trump administration is renewing an effort to break apart its greatest asset for counterstriking: the “dual hat” arrangement between U.S. Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM) and the National Security Agency (NSA).

Splitting this leadership structure would greatly damage U.S. cyber effectiveness. Read More

  • Israel and the delusions of Germany’s ‘memory culture’ *

No country, however, matches its convoluted journey from ground zero in 1945 to Gaza today. Read More
