2 December 2008, by U.S. President-elect Barack Obama announced on Monday his national security team, including former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton as secretary of state and incumbent Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who would retain his post.

2 December 2008, by Feds to Judge: Dont Second Guess Bush Domestic Spy Program December 2, 2008 - 5:36pm — MacRonin Feds to Judge: Don't 'Second Guess' Bush Domestic Spy Program: Via Threat Level SAN FRANCISCO --- The Bush administration on Tuesday urged a federal judge to dismiss lawsuits against the nation's telecommunications companies accused of being complicit in the government's once-secret spy program adopted in the wake of the 2001 terror attacks on the United States. "That was designed to pro
2 December 2008, by I was on the phone during Bob Gates’ first presser since being reappointed as defense secretary by President-elect Obama, but my man Matt DeLong kept me covered and sent along his notes. And look at this! Gates is OK with Obama’s timetable for withdrawing combat troops from Iraq in 16 months! I’ll update when the Pentagon emails me the transcript, but Gates was asked about the timetable, and he said working within Obama’s 16-month-ish timetable, with appropriate adjustments along commanders’ r
2 December 2008, by We’ve got to clean out the stables of national security as well. ‘For a bunch of small-government Republicans,’ one former denizen of the White House who has now stepped back inside for the first time in eight years, ‘these guys built a hell of an empire.’ Eight years ago, there were two deputy national security advisers; today there are a half-dozen, each with staff. In the downstairs suites of the West Wing and across the street in the Old Executive Office Building, the returnees tripped in
2 December 2008, by Speaking of Hillary Clinton’s people, Greg Sargent has it confirmed from a knowledgeable source: Jim Steinberg, deputy national security adviser in Bill Clinton’s second term, is close to becoming Hillary Rodham Clinton’s deputy secretary of state. While being mindful of President-elect Obama’s admonition yesterday against the Obama-versus-Clinton meme, Steinberg almost assuredly isn’t whom Clinton would have picked on her own. Like Greg Craig, Steinberg has roots in the Clinton administration
2 December 2008, by ssupak President Bush issued an executive order on Monday that denies collective bargaining rights to about 8,600 federal employees who work in law enforcement, intelligence and other agencies responsible for national security.
2 December 2008, by Obama NSA Appointee has Ties to Chevron and U.S. Chamber of Commerce Climaticide is a national security issue, potentially the biggest national security problem we face. Consequently, anyone concerned about global warming also needs to be concerned about the qualifications of the person who occupies the post of National Security Advisor. And, unfortunately, there are reasons for concern. Yesterday, Barack Obama announced a number of cabinet post appointments, most prominent of which was Hil

2 December 2008, by Thanassis Cambanis, who’s covered the Middle East for The Boston Globe and The New York Times, has an original commentary out for Middle East Progress on how to deal with the new Lebanese realities rather than the fantasies of the Cedar Revolution: In short, Hezbollah, Syria and Iran are stronger in Lebanon that any point in the last decade. In order to foster better ties with a Lebanese government that includes Hezbollah as well as the pro-Western coalition, U.S. policy makers should consid
2 December 2008, by Not long ago, a number of foreign-policy progressives in the Obama orbit vented to me about how they were concerned Hillary Rodham Clinton would shut them out of State Dept. jobs in favor of her own people. It wasn’t really an idle concern: several remember how the Clinton people un-sutbly warned Democrats during the primaries not to back Obama, because Clinton would inevitably win the nomination and the presidency, and they’d be frozen out. So let’s say, for the sake of argument, that their fe
2 December 2008, by Kagan: ‘Sovereignty Must Be Earned’ By Matt Duss at 2:20 pm Kagan: ‘Sovereignty Must Be Earned’» Columns like this one make me question why Robert Kagan is considered one of the “smart” neocons. Suggesting that we should “internationalize the response” to the Mumbai attacks, Kagan wants the international community to “declare that parts of Pakistan have become ungovernable and a menace to international security.” Establish an international force to work with the Pakistanis to root out ter
2 December 2008, by Surprise! Jimmy Carter writes on CNN’s website about the enduring value of promoting and protecting a world order that holds human rights to be sacred. This advice never gets old: Too often, the international community has failed to respond to emerging crises, partly because voices of the oppressed are missing in policy discussions. Had the international community heeded the warning of human rights defenders in the former Yugoslavia, Rwanda, Darfur, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, more r
2 December 2008, by David Brooks says: Some theoreticians may still talk about Platonic concepts like realism and neoconservatism, but the actual foreign policy doctrine of the future will be hammered out in a bottom-up process as the U.S. and its allies use their varied tools to build government capacity in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Lebanon, the Philippines and beyond. I think there’s something of a category error here. The development of some kind of consensus about how to do this stuff is noteworthy, and the dev
2 December 2008, by ISLAMABAD: National Security Conference on Monday said that all political parties and democratic forces firmly support the government and the armed forces of Pakistan in defending Pakistan’s security interests. The conference was presided over by Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani at PM’s House in which leaders of major political parties in the country participated. However, the conference unanimously adopted a joint statement saying it was a steadfast resolve of Pakistani nation to defen
2 December 2008, by President-elect Barack Obama has named a national security team tasked with strengthening our security and renewing our standing in the world.
2 December 2008, by Required reading from Ezra Klein. The question: David Brooks is right to understand Barack Obama's national security team as the maturation of thinking that began in Iraq and Afghanistan and focuses more on building civic capacity than destroying military capabilities. This is the post-Iraq consensus between liberals and realists, and it will hold as long as the question is Iraq. But what if the topic changes? If China triggers a confrontation over Taiwan or a threatening genocide cries out fo
2 December 2008, by Via Mike Tomasky, some words of wisdom from outgoing Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert: Were a regional war to break out in the next year or two and were we to enter into a military confrontation with Syria, I have no doubt that we’d defeat them soundly. We are stronger than they. Israel is the strongest country in the Middle East. We could contend with any of our enemies or against all of our enemies combined and win. The question that I ask myself is, what happens when we win? First of al
2 December 2008, by Look, it's yet another email from David "Plouffe Daddy" Plouffe, Barack Obama's chief deputy in charge of spam. Seriously, this guy. I like you, David, but not in that way. Can't you give my inbox a rest? No? Okay, how much do you want this time? Yesterday, President-elect Barack Obama and Vice President-elect Joe Biden announced key members of their national security team. Barack and Joe have asked some of the country's most experienced leaders on national security, foreign policy, law enfo
2 December 2008, by When last we left the question of who would staff a Gates Pentagon — GOP appointees or Obama’s people? — it looked pretty much like Obama would put his team in at the sub-cabinet level. Trusted defense adviser Richard Danzig would get the deputy secretary position and probably Michele Flournoy of the Center for a New American Security would get the undersecretaryship for policy. Now The Washington Post reports — via Matt Yglesias and Steve Benen — that not only is the deputy secretary, Gordon E

2 December 2008, by In his column of November 27, Z. Dwight Billingsly’s assertion that Republican administrations are better than Democratic ones at providing national security is not born out by the facts. There were no attacks by foreign terrorists on the continental United States during 8 years of the Clinton administration. In early 2001, that administration gave the incoming Republicans repeated warnings about the dangers posed by Osama bin Laden and al-Quaeda. The Republicans underestimated that risk and fa
