Today @POTUS informed Congress of his intent to rescind Syria’s designation as a State Sponsor of Terrorism. This historic step opens new possibilities for economic opportunity and recovery, giving the Syrian people a chance at greatness.

@CarolineRose8 @TheSoufanCenter Despite the accurate characterization of IS threat to Iraq, the reality regarding prisons is more complex than indicated; concerns are deepening amidst the absence of transparent de-radicalization and rehabilitation programs.

Here it is!! The mammoth study by @AlexAlmeida2020, Crispin Smith and myself of the military performance of the integrated muqawama/PMF team in the 2026 war. Print it, settle in with a beverage and a highlighter, and read every word and every footnote. Keen to hear feedback when folks have had a chance to digest. @horizonengage @WashInstitute

New analysis from me on tracking the Islamic State through the Worldwide Activity Map I created over the past 3+ years https://t.co/c34X8jJbbX

Iran wasn’t beaten by airstrikes. The munition is the trivial last step; the intelligence is the war. The decisive piece, the fix on the leadership, was American, built over years, spent in a morning. My latest for the @Newsweek👇🏽

[Aaron Y. Zelin @azelin]

Finally finished Daniel Neep’s (@neepd) exhaustive history of modern Syria. A must-read and a ton of lessons for the current stage. Biggest takeaway is how much Syrian history rhymes with itself. Hopefully, the new authorities appreciate that history within the current stakes.

[Caroline Rose @CarolineRose8]

Important quantitative look at ISIS’ slowed tempo of operations.

Of course, by no means is this a sign that anybody should begin looking away and diverting resources from monitoring efforts.

But the narrative that ISIS is amidst a “resurgence” akin to mid-2010 levels is incorrect.

[Clara Broekaert @ClaraBroekaert]

AI & Terrorism, the pandemonium narrative and its limits.

Please see my deep dive with @ColinPClarke on how Islamic State has adopted AI, and what we can expect based on prior innovation patterns by the group.
