past writing

foreign policy analysis

I have written various articles for Geopoliticalmonitor.com. Here are a few samples of Situation Reports and Forecasters that I’ve written in the past:

Pakistan Taliban in retreat
Hegemonic decline or practical diplomacy?
Afghan election & NATO
PLA Navy bristling at US presence
Baghdad bombings an inside job?
Chinese military power

Here are a couple Backgrounders- a format that provides a more in-depth analysis:

BRIC countries energy security report
Bush torture years
Arctic ownership

And there are plenty more to be picked through over at the GPM.

satire writing / humor

The War on Terror: a retrospective – A frank and honest assessment of just how freaking crazy this war has been (and continues to be).
101 Jesii – a tongue-in-cheek examination of personal Jesii (hopefully that’s the plural of Jesus).
Life at the end of history- A satirical take on Fukuyama’s belief that we reached the pinnacle of human organization in liberal democracy.
