politics by other means

At the terrific blog Arms and Influence, you can read a smart and steady stream of military analysis from a (barely) pseudonymous UC Irvine political science Ph.D. who wrote his dissertation on the tendency of the United States to misunderstand the shape and significance of so-called "little wars." Start here, and keep going. Particularly useful are the old posts, such as this one, linked under the "Exploding Myths" heading in the left column.

Thanks for the tip. It's a great site with great perspectives on something I've been interested in for 25 years. I'm just depressed that, in all that time, I haven't had his insights.

Thanks for the kind words. After a much-needed break, I'm back posting again.
