Sinopsis

Weaponized Vehicles explores the surprising influence of Japanese manga on real-world military technology and strategic thinking. It delves into how fictional depictions of tanks, mechs, and other advanced combat vehicles have shaped, and been shaped by, military innovation.Surprisingly, manga often anticipates technological advancements, serving as a cultural laboratory for exploring the potential of combat vehicles. The book examines how these fictional designs have affected military simulations, design concepts, and even strategic planning.

 
The book progresses by first providing an overview of combat vehicles in both real life and manga. It then explores specific examples, analyzing technological features, tactical doctrines, and cultural symbolism.Ultimately, this book offers a unique perspective on the interplay of art, technology, and warfare, challenging the idea that military innovation is solely driven by practical needs. It argues for the significant role of cultural imagination in shaping the future of armed conflict.

    "I bought an El Al ticket. Destination Ben Gourion airport. Tel Aviv. Israel. 60 years ago, my mother was born a few dozen kilometers away. In Haifa, Palestine.
    So begins the story of the "return" of Ziyad Clot, grandson of Palestinian exiles. In Ramallah, he accepted a position as legal advisor to the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and became a negotiator, taking part in the talks that were to lead to the creation of the Palestinian state by the end of 2008. But he soon came to terms with the obvious: "The peace process is a spectacle, a farce, played out at the expense of Palestinian reconciliation, at the cost of bloodshed in Gaza. And despite myself, I'm becoming one of the actors in this drama.”
    The author plunges us into the heart of the peace process, revealing the pretenses, behind-the-scenes maneuvers of the parties and the internal and international rivalries that help fuel the fantasy of a two-state solution. This edifying account, steeped in personal history, shows how and why negotiations to create a Palestinian state came to nothing. For the former negotiator, a peaceful solution to the conflict can only be found through a single state in which Palestinians and Israelis will have to live together. This hybrid country, "Israeltine," is already here.

    Tragedy and Hope 101

    The information in this book contradicts nearly everything you’ve been led to believe about democracy and representative government. 
    Based on the groundbreaking research of respected historian Carroll Quigley, Tragedy and Hope 101 reveals an unimaginably devious political system. The goal of those who control the system, in Quigley’s own words, is to dominate “all habitable portions of the world.” Using deception, theft, and violence, they have achieved more toward this goal than any rulers in human history. 
    Fortunately, the information age has dramatically undermined their plans. The immorality of their system (and those who serve it) has become nearly impossible to hide. Awareness is spreading, resistance is growing, and tragedy is yielding to hope.

    The two decades after the Cold War saw unprecedented cooperation between the major powers as the world converged on a model of liberal international order. Now, great power competition is back, and the liberal order is in jeopardy. 
    Russia and China are increasingly revisionist in their regions. The Middle East appears to be unraveling. And many Americans question why the United States ought to lead. What will great power competition look like in the decades ahead? Will the liberal world order survive? What impact will geopolitics have on globalization? And, what strategy should the United States pursue to succeed in an increasingly competitive world. 
     In this book, Thomas Wright explains how major powers will compete fiercely even as they try to avoid war with each other. Wright outlines a new American strategy—responsible competition—to navigate these challenges and strengthen the liberal order.

    Over the last decades, rivalries, bilateral disagreements, and distrust between Maghreb states have taken a toll on common political and security challenges, like the Western Sahara issue, the Libyan conflict, the destabilisation in the Sahel region and transnational clandestine flows. Moreover, the Maghreb is one of the least economically integrated regions in the world, and this leads to the region's loss in growth, and the disheartening record of missed opportunities for stability and prosperity. This is the cost of the "non-Maghreb".
    This Report aims to unpack the political and economic costs of the "non-Maghreb", understand its historical genesis and geopolitical implications and, more broadly, what the future might hold for individual countries and the Maghreb as a divided, fractious but potentially coherent whole.
