National Archives By Scott S. Powell American approaches to war for the last 70 years have been characterized by a normalcy bias that war conduct should be guided by the goal of reaching negotiated compromise outcomes rather than achieving victory and total defeat of the enemy.

The depletion of advanced missile stockpiles raises concerns about U.S. military readiness for potential conflicts with other global adversaries. PULSE POINTS WHAT HAPPENED: The U.S. Army has depleted much of its global stockpile of long-range precision missiles after five months of military operations against Iran , with sources stating that the military has used virtually all of its Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) and Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM). DETAIL: The missiles, which cost more than $1 million each and have also been supplied to Ukraine , are considered critical for striking targets from long distances while reducing risks to pilots, and officials say the dwindling inventory could limit the U.S. military’s ability…Open
