As part of the relaunching and restarting Strategy Unit, we have now moved to the new domain name at www.StrategyUnit.net and have updated our feeds to http://feeds.feedburner.com/strategyunit. So please update your bookmarks and RSS feeds accordingly!

We’re still migrating and updating content, so changes will be frequent but we look forward to settling quickly to the new address and new design.
Please note that as one unfortunate circumstance of the move is that previous postings will show “0 Comments”, when in fact that are comments on the posting. There appears to be no way to easily correct the situation at this time.

Looking forward to contributing back on Global Security Issues.

Cheers,

StrategyUnit

But with events continue to unfold and grow in importance, StrategyUnit will be returning albeit at a far lighter schedule, maybe 2-3 articles a month.

Looking forward to jumping back into discussions on global security!

Cheers!

Your July 4th History Lesson of the Day: While this picture is often depicted as the signing of the declaration, it actually the drafting of the document. But alas, this picture by Trumbull, as a depicting the declaration, is now a tradition of sorts regardless of what it actually is. Read more here.

If anyone would like to guest blog on my site, send me articles, tips, etc to post. Let me know and post a comment below.

For my day job, I am an Internet marketer, so I happen upon lots of interesting Internet-related technologies all the time. One of them is 3Bubbles, a way to integrate live chat to every blog and web site. As one of the early beta testers, I’ve enabled chatting on all postings. I know I dont generate enough traffic to really take advantage of this new technology, but I cant help but give it a try.

Just wanted to thank everyone who has visited StrategyUnit and to those that have posted invaluable comments as well. StrategyUnit has only been online for only four months, but has attained decent visitor numbers and some recognition from greats like Zenpundit to Instapundit.

I would like to state that if anyone feels they share the same interests, scope and focus as StrategyUnit is welcome to solicit potential articles. I both wish to expand StrategyUnit capacity to produce relevant articles and also lighten my personal blogging burden. With a full time 9-7 job in a fast-paced industry, its quite the effort to maintain this blog.

Cheers

Happy Holidays and Have a Happy New Year

But, unfortunately, wars are still being fought…and now we are fighting in the Global War on Terrorism (Or the “Long War” as Ginrich calls it) and the War in Iraq.

While remembering those who have fought for America for generations past, don’t forget those who continue to serve this country today.

Tdaxp – a New Blog (new to me)
This is a new blog by a guy named Dan. Great blog with interesting, analytical and unique perspective on a host of issues. Just keep on scrolling.

Especially interesting to me are:

• The Future That Might Have Been
• The Failure of Global Guerrillaism: Democracies Withstand Economic Pain (Disclosure: I posted on the thread on Global Guerillas, 4GW v. 3GW)
• Speaker Hastert Attacks Oil Company Record Profits (Blog Network Attacks)

Hello Saudi Arabia, Hello Oil Peak!
Here’s something I found at NYT that is not receiving enough attention, but is discussed at the Oil Drum:

“a senior intelligence official, who insisted on remaining anonymous because he was not permitted to speak publicly on the issue, said that the Saudi plans to increase production by nearly 14 percent in the next four years were not enough to meet global demand. Even the Energy Information Administration recently scaled back its expectations of how much more oil the Saudis could pump in 20 years.”

Check out The Oil Drum’s coverage here. The Oil Drum also covers other news over doubts of Saudi Arabia’s Aramco on how much reserve and capacity remains in Saudi Arabia.

China is an Unstoppable Graduate Student Factory (or not?)
In “Anoint no economic superpower before its time”, Daniel Drezner has a very good roundup putting some doubt on the opinion that China’s is churning out far more and better engineering students than the US – helping lifting China to superpower level and eventually surpassing the U.S. and the West.

Daniel Drezner’s posting is a great follow-up to my previous post, “China the Roaring Economy – Or Maybe Not “, which points to some doubts on China’s consistently astronomical GDP growth figures.
