Three circles of threat

Article Abstract:

The main objective of the US must be to divide and marginalize while decentralization, but this is the main difficulty, as many of actions have had an opposite result particularly for George W. Bush's administration's 'global war on terror'. The policies must hence deal with three different circles, al-Qaeda in its 11 September incarnation, terrorist movements that though permeable to global Islamist ideology have a local objective and roots, all those in the Muslim and Arab world who feel increasingly attracted to jihadist ideology and feel compelled to transform their discontent into action.

Reagan was right: let's ban ballistic missiles

Article Abstract:

In 1986, Ronald Reagan had proposed to eliminate offensive ballastic missiles but the Russians had refused to agree. The Reagan's Zero Ballistic Missiles (ZBM) should be re-examined as it would eliminate risks associated with thousands of US and Russian ballistic missile warheads and remove the most dangerous weapons from regions in the Middle East, southwest Asia and Korean Peninsula.
