CNN INTERNATIONAL CHRIS KOLENDA:  THE AFGHAN POLITICAL ECONOMY
Professor Christopher D. Kolenda is President & CEO of Kolenda Strategic Leadership LLC, a Senior Military Fellow at King's College London.  Advisor & Strategist on Afghanistan, Pakistan to Undersecretary of Defense for Policy.

Webpage & Article on Defeating The Islamic State http://kolendastrategicleadership.com/defeating-isis-begins-by-recognizing-a-sunni-arab-state/

​
Five current unpleasant realities:
1.  The Islamic State is a pro-to Sunni Arab state controlling massive territory.  
2.  Currently, a proto-Kurdish State currently exits.  
3.  Neither Assad, nor Iraqi (Shia dominated) is going to win battle for legitimacy.  
4.  Both regimes are Shia dominated &
5.  Assad's regime cannot be defeated as long at it receives Russian/Iranian assistance.   

Professor Kolenda's policy is to reverse these trends while providing longterm regional security.

Amazon Conservative Internationalism http://amzn.com/0691159319
​

Questions:  Previous Presidential administrations never had our technological advance, how can the maintenance of Empire teach the State Department about armed diplomacy.

State is run like an unelected monolithic fiefdom demanding fealty, what framework should be applied to reform State & how would immediate future Presidents manage disabling bureaucratic conflict during the application of Statecraft.

How do 24 hour networks and the culture war impact Diplomacy.

How best do we characterize the entrenched institutional dysfunction of numerous Cabinet level agencies prior to the Iraqi Surge that fatally weakened US threat deterrent.   Why does this happen?

Can State handle a culture war with Islam?  What role does Presidential Statecraft have in engaging State so that IT functions.

How does the R.M.A. (revolution in military affairs) hurt traditional diplomacy in the maintenance of alliances.  (How much of this can be identified with 'Blue Water  vs.  Continental Strategy'.)

Concerning Reagan's Statecraft:  Why was Kissenger ignored?  

How would immediate future Presidents employ your book (Conservative Internationalism) for policy resolution regarding our most intractable conflicts (Pashtun intransigence, Pakistani nuclear posture/doctrines, Indian - Pakistani rivalry & contemporary Syria.)

How would Conservative Internationalism address the liberalization of China's Capital/Current Account.

Regarding the near nuclear parity of Islamic monarchies throughout the Gulf, how would Conservative Internationalism achieve balance.

Regarding managing Reagan's National Security Council:  Dr. Jeane Kirkpatrick & Ed Meese had a physical shoving match over Church/Boland Amendments relative to Iran - Contra; can you speak to how your book would bring conceptual clarity to deliberate Constitutional ambiguities regarding separation of powers doctrine.  Can you address how liberal progressive political doctrines exacerbate civil-miltitary relations, hollowing out any effective deployment of Statecraft.

Mahin Siddiqui:  Gulf intelligence on pakistan, beijing & functioning markets

5/9/2015

0 Comments

 
Mahin Siddiqui Associate at Gulf Intelligence in Dubai, a Strategic Communications & Strategy boutique and leading Think Tank http://thegulfintelligence.com

Mahin Siddiqui's analysis reveals an emerging threat to Pakistan coming from the movement of the Islamic State east toward Kabul.  Given its myriad social, ethnic and religious plurality, Pakistan is the next logical step for the Islamic State.

Siddiqui's policy resolution is sophisticated, yet grounded in realism:  Pakistan's political leadership should seek to reintegrate Pakistan into regional markets to secure a favorable growth strategy, effectively confronting the Islamic State with a strong national Pakistani identity with functioning markets, new capital, and growth, allocating policy flexibility to an emerging threat environment.

Q3.  What policy can Islamabad field to counter a rapidly militant column of indigenous Shia favorable to Teheran.

Q4.  A new patron in Beijing portends that Pakistan seeks to prevent isolation, what role does Beijing play for Islamabad's security interests.
