A little over one year ago to the day, White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan boasted:

"The Middle East region is quieter today than it has been in two decades."

US Middle East policy consistently produces one thing: failure.

Biden's most recent Oval Office address presented an incomplete picture of Washington’s myriad military engagements abroad to the American public.

My latest with @ForeignPolicy

It's past time for a fundamental reevaluation of the US-Israel relationship.

Good blog by @GiltnerBen and @jeallenFP on how Biden's claims re "the United States is not at war anywhere in the world" is, as Biden likes to say, pure malarky.

Pleased to share the first of what will be monthly updates to the Taiwan arms backlog data that @GiltnerBen and I published last November! Time for a 🧵https://t.co/vXpBe8h5vt

[Eric Gomez @EricGomezAsia]

My latest @CatoInstitute blog post is on Taiwan's extended military conscription period, which yesterday inducted its first cohort of troops. This improves defense, especially taken with the rest of Tsai's 2022 reforms if Taiwan can stick the landing https://t.co/taQtA9DOLP

[Cato Foreign Policy @CatoFP]

While Turkey remains an American ally, the U.S. should not expect that weapons shipments to the country will make Turkish interests align with American interests.

We are saddened to announce that Uga X, fondly known as Que, died peacefully in his sleep earlier this morning.

Born May 27, 2013, he formally began his tenure in a collaring ceremony at the Georgia-Georgia Southern football game on Nov. 21, 2015. Que retired following the 2022 season after becoming the most decorated of all the Bulldog mascots. He compiled a football record of 91-18, presided over two SEC titles, the 2021 and 2022 College Football Playoff national championships, and seven New Year’s Six bowl appearances.

He will always be remembered as a Damn Good Dawg.

Many assume that sending an ally more weapons makes it more compliant with America's interests. Turkey proves that this assumption is false.

[Congresswoman Cori Bush (Archived) @RepCori]

.@POTUS can’t launch airstrikes in Yemen without congressional approval.

This is illegal and violates Article I of the Constitution.

The people do not want more of our taxpayer dollars going to endless war and the killing of civilians. Stop the bombing and do better by us.

[Justin Logan @JustinTLogan]

We did it, we finally figured out a way to make Riyadh call for restraint and avoiding escalation when it comes to the Houthis!

[Armand Domalewski @ArmandDoma]

Striking the Houthis was probably unavoidable at this point, but important to keep in mind we should have never backed Saudi Arabia’s moronic and evil campaign in Yemen in the first place

[Jon Hoffman @Hoffman8Jon]

My latest with @ForeignPolicy.

It's time to face reality:

US Middle East policy has failed.

I'm going to miss the Lennon to my McCartney. But @jbcohen92 is going to absolutely kill it at @CRS4Congress. Can't wait to read his future reports (and cite them in my own pieces)! Thanks for everything Jordan!
