Deepfake Videos: When Seeing Isn't Believing, Holly Kathleen Hall
Catholic University Journal of Law and Technology
Videos, known as deepfakes, use readily available software to create a work that shows people saying and doing things they may never have uttered or engaged in. The technology making the videos appear very authentic is advancing at such a rate that people may not be able to detect if the videos are fact or fiction. Given the hasty acceptance of other forms of fake news in society, deepfake videos have the ability to affect the nature of information the public receives about candidates and policies. This study examines the potential use of deepfake videos in the democratic process, analyzes …

A Call To Action: Lessons From Ukraine For The Future Force
The US Army War College Quarterly: Parameters
Fifty years ago, the US Army faced a strategic inflection point after a failed counterinsurgency effort in Vietnam. In response to lessons learned from the Yom Kippur War, the United States Army Training and Doctrine Command was created to reorient thinking and doctrine around the conventional Soviet threat. Today’s Army must embrace the Russo-Ukrainian conflict as an opportunity to reorient the force into one as forward-thinking and formidable as the Army that won Operation Desert Storm. This article suggests changes the Army should make to enable success in multidomain large-scale combat operations at today’s strategic inflection point.
Radicalization Into Violent Extremism I: A Review Of Social Science Theories,

Radicalization Into Violent Extremism I: A Review Of Social Science Theories, Randy Borum
Journal of Strategic Security
In discourse about countering terrorism, the term "radicalization" is widely used, but remains poorly defined. To focus narrowly on ideological radicalization risks implying that radical beliefs are a proxy—or at least a necessary precursor—for terrorism, though we know this not to be true.Different pathways and mechanisms of terrorism involvement operate in different ways for different people at different points in time and perhaps in different contexts. This article explores the problems in defining radicalization and radicalism, and suggests that radicalization—and more specifically, involvement in terrorism—might best be viewed as a set of diverse processes. It goes on to review several …

Newport Manual On The Law Of Naval Warfare, Second Edition
International Law Studies
The Newport Manual on the Law of Naval Warfare, Second Edition, is a continuing effort to restate the law of naval warfare as a purely lex lata exercise. Like the first edition of 2023, it is designed to provide a practical guide for commanders and seafarers, lawyers and officials, and educators and students. In doing so, the Manual includes developments in warfighting technologies in recent decades, which have significantly influenced the nature of war at sea. This second edition has been edited by four of the original authors following an extensive review and revision process.

A Delicate Balance: The Japan-Us Status Of Forces Agreement Applying A Comparative Framework To Recommend Changes To Criminal Jurisdiction Provisions In The Japan-Us Status Of Forces Agreement To Better Protect The Interests Of Japan And The United States
Brooklyn Journal of International Law
The criminal jurisdiction provisions of the Japan-U.S. Status of Forces Agreement (“SOFA”), which governs the rights of US servicemembers deployed in Japan, must be amended. The recent Japanese criminal conviction of a U.S. naval officer focused U.S. lawmakers’ efforts on revising the Japan-U.S. SOFA. This led to a provision in the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (“NDAA”), which requires the U.S. Secretary of Defense and Secretary of State to analyze the largest existing U.S. bilateral agreements and their treatment of U.S. servicemembers’ rights in foreign courts and, by the end of 2024, report their findings to congressional committees. This Note …

Echoes Of 9/11: Rhetorical Analysis Of Presidential Statements In The "War On Terror", Bruce Ching
Journal Articles
This article examines persuasive statements by Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump involving appeals to national identity as a rhetorical foundation for anti-terrorism policy since 9/11. Their specific rhetorical methods have included the use of memorable catchphrases, alliteration, metaphorical framing, and contrast between values of the United States and those of the terrorists. President Bush focused on rallying the nation’s response against the perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks, identifying the U.S. with “freedom itself” and invoking the phrase “War on Terror.” President Obama emphasized the importance of the nation’s values while denouncing the Bush administration’s torture of …
