The US military may be in deep shit if a new drone war starts. Inertia, bureaucracy, and fear of making the wrong choice are limiting the American military’s adaption, and this could lead to many many more dead Americans if the US gets into a modern drone war.

The strikes and war on Iran have delayed Iran’s nuclear program for up to two years. The Iranian nuclear deal that Trump abandoned in his first term delayed Iran’s nuclear program by ten to fifteen years.

Russia is playing aggressive games with NATO while also currently invading its neighbor.
For example, a Russian helicopter flew into Poland and then returned home. If Poland had shot it down, it’s likely that the helicopter could have flown into Russian territory before the missile hit, meaning Russia would misleadingly claim that it was an attack on Russian soil even though the helicopter was fired upon while in Poland.

Property taxes incentivize people to sit on land and not use it because if they develop it, they will have to pay higher taxes. Land value taxes incentivize people to actually use the land because the tax is the same either way, and, they can better make up the cost of the land value tax if they use it productively or sell it to someone who will.
Land is hard to value, but it should be doable with modern techniques.
This should lower taxes on single family residential homes, while greatly increasing it on vacant land.

Lethality is important, but the goal at the strategic level should be to end the opponent’s will and capability to fight. Destruction and death aren’t always the best way to do this.

There’s a problem in academia on the left and the right where people are reluctant to publish studies, or even work on studies, where the findings will be unpopular with their professional or social circle. Social scientists need to publish findings they think contribute to our knowledge on the topic, ignoring how it will make people feel.

In 1938/9, the British rejected two states in Palestine, instead proposing a single state, putting strict limits on Jewish immigration, and restrictions on land sales from Arabs to Jews. The Palestinian Arab leadership rejected it because they wanted immediate independence and the complete and immediate cessation of all Jewish Immigration. So, the Arabs living in Palestine, were offered a single Arab majority state with strict limits of Jewish immigration, and still rejected it. It’s possible they rejected it because, influenced by both Nazi ideology and Islamism, they wanted the Jews eliminated from the land, so the British offer wasn’t good enough.
From the end of WWII to today, elites in some Middle Eastern states reluctantly support dictatorships because the other options that would likely take over if not for the dictatorships are Islamists.

Trump repeatedly screams fraud when there is an election outcome he doesn’t like, even in elections he wasn’t running in. And of course, without even close to decent evidence…
2016 Republican Primaries, 2016 US presidential election, 2018 US midterms, 2020 US presidential election, 2022 US midterms…
He even claims it in elections he won to claim “in reality” he won bigger!
