Ukraine's Covert Drone Strike on Russia's Nuclear Bombers – In a bold operation dubbed “Spider Web,” Ukraine smuggles explosive-laden drones into Russia disguised as backyard sheds, damaging up to 40 nuclear-capable bombers. The strike signals a new era in covert drone warfare and offers a chilling preview of what China might replicate on U.S. soil. Drone Warfare and Port Vulnerabilities Raise U.S. Security Concerns – Bryan connects Ukraine's tactics to vulnerabilities in U.S. ports, especially Chinese-built cranes embedded with suspect electronics. He warns that the threat of Trojan-horse-style drone attacks is now a domestic risk, not just a foreign battlefield tactic. China's Rare Earth Blackmail Threatens U.S. Auto Industry – Despite Trump's tariff rollbacks, China is withholding critical rare earth exports, putting U.S. vehicle production on the brink. Trump responds by suspending Chinese student visas and weighing further retaliatory measures. Defense Secretary Warns: Taiwan Invasion “Could Be Imminent” – At the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth warns that China is training daily for a Taiwan assault. He urges U.S. readiness and tells Europe to focus on Russian threats instead of meddling in Asia. Analysis: Is Putin Helping Xi By Prolonging the Ukraine War? – Bryan outlines a possible coordination between Russia and China, using Ukraine to distract and weaken the West as Beijing prepares for action on Taiwan. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." – John 8:32

Join Colonel Vikrant Shinde and Arindam Goswami in this episode of All Things Policy, where we dive into one of the most transformative developments in modern warfare and aviation: the rise of unmanned aerial systems. Vikrant, a Research Fellow at Takshashila, is working on a research paper on this very subject, which will be out very soon.From their military origins to today's complex commercial ecosystem, drones have revolutionised our airspace - particularly what experts call the "Air Littoral," that critical zone below 10,000 feet where traditional aircrafts now share space with everything from delivery drones to weaponised UAVs.The recent India-Pakistan conflict brought this reality into sharp focus, showing how drones have fundamentally transformed the battlefield. Meanwhile, countries like India are navigating the delicate balance between fostering innovation through regulations like the Drone Rules 2021 while simultaneously developing counter-UAS capabilities to address emerging security threats.The discussion in this episode explores this new aerial frontier - where regulators, military strategists, and technology developers are racing to build systems that can distinguish friend from foe in increasingly congested skies. How do we manage this complex ecosystem? What lessons have recent conflicts taught us about drone warfare? And what does the future hold for airspace security?Join us as we discuss about the technological challenges, regulatory frameworks, and defence strategies shaping the future of our skies.The PGP is a comprehensive 48-week hybrid programme tailored for those aiming to delve deep into the theoretical and practical aspects of public policy.

HR2 Bret Boyd: Drone Warfare, Oil Regulations, Trump and Trade Deals with the UK 5-7-25 by John Rush

Edition No135 | 28-04-2025 - After transitioning to become his excellency, Ukraine's ambassador to the UK, General Valerii Zaluzhnyi kept a relatively low profile. Now he's attending more civic events that have connections to the Ukrainian community, and has given keynote addresses at several significant events, including Chatham House and Rusi. His vision of the future of war is emerging, as well as some criticism of Western military preparations to counter Russia, that is couched in low-key, highly diplomatic language, but is devastating in substance. Valerii Zaluzhnyi opened a recent address at the Ukrainian School of Management, a new space for leadership and critical thinking, with this emotive sentence: “Three years ago, we faced a stark choice: to fight or to vanish. And we made our decision - we chose to fight. Not only did we manage to stop and push back the most powerful enemy in the world, but we also redefined the very nature of modern warfare. As a result, Ukraine has become home to one of the most advanced and adaptive armed forces of our time.” ----------LINKS:https://www.pravda.com.ua/columns/2025/04/25/7509135/https://www.defenseone.com/ideas/2025/04/how-drones-data-and-ai-transformed-our-militaryand-why-us-must-follow-suit/404444/ ----------Easter Pysanky: Silicon Curtain - https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/easter-pysanky-silicon-curtainCar for Ukraine has joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this special Easter season.

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Troy Johnson, founder and partner at Resource Development Group, LLC, about the deep history and modern implications of mining. From the earliest days of salt extraction to the role of rare earth metals in global geopolitics, the conversation covers how mining has shaped technology, warfare, and supply chains. They discuss the strategic importance of minerals like gallium and germanium, the rise of drone warfare, and the ongoing battle for resource dominance between China and the West. Listeners can find more about Troy's work at resourcedevgroup.com (www.resourcedevgroup.com) and connect with him on LinkedIn via the Resource Development Group page.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:17 The Origins of Mining00:28 Early Uses of Mined Materials03:29 The Evolution of Mining Techniques07:56 Mining in the Industrial Revolution09:05 Modern Mining and Strategic Metals12:25 The Role of AI in Modern Warfare24:36 Decentralization in Warfare and Governance30:51 AI's Unpredictable Moves in Go32:26 The Shift in Media Trust33:40 The Rise of Podcasts35:47 Mining Industry Innovations39:32 Geopolitical Impacts on Mining40:22 The Importance of Supply Chains44:37 Challenges in Rare Earth Processing51:26 Ensuring a Bulletproof Supply Chain57:23 Conclusion and Contact InformationKey InsightsMining is as old as civilization itself – Long before the Bronze Age, humans were mining essential materials like salt and ochre, driven by basic survival needs. Over time, mining evolved from a necessity for tools and pigments to a strategic industry powering economies and military advancements. This deep historical perspective highlights how mining has always been a fundamental pillar of technological and societal progress.The geopolitical importance of critical minerals – Modern warfare and advanced technology rely heavily on strategic metals like gallium, germanium, and antimony. These elements are essential for electronic warfare, radar systems, night vision devices, and missile guidance. The Chinese government, recognizing this decades ago, secured global mining and processing dominance, putting Western nations in a vulnerable position as they scramble to reestablish domestic supply chains.The rise of drone warfare and EMP defense systems – Military strategy is shifting toward drone swarms, where thousands of small, cheap, AI-powered drones can overwhelm traditional defense systems. This has led to the development of countermeasures like EMP-based defense systems, including the Leonidas program, which uses gallium nitride to disable enemy electronics. This new battlefield dynamic underscores the urgent need for securing critical mineral supplies to maintain technological superiority.China's long-term strategy in resource dominance – Unlike Western nations, where election cycles dictate short-term decision-making, China has played the long game in securing mineral resources. Through initiatives like the Belt and Road, they have locked down raw materials while perfecting the refining process, making them indispensable to global supply chains. Their recent export bans on gallium and germanium show how resource control can be weaponized for geopolitical leverage.Ethical mining and the future of clean extraction – Mining has long been associated with environmental destruction and poor labor conditions, but advances in technology and corporate responsibility are changing that. Major mining companies are now prioritizing ethical sourcing, reducing emissions, and improving worker safety. Blockchain-based tracking systems are also helping verify supply chain integrity, ensuring that materials come from environmentally and socially responsible sources.The vulnerability of supply chains and the need for resilience – The West's reliance on outsourced mineral processing has created significant weaknesses in national security. A disruption—whether through trade restrictions, political instability, or sabotage—can cripple industries dependent on rare materials. A key takeaway is the need for a “bulletproof supply chain,” where critical materials are sourced, processed, and manufactured within allied nations to mitigate risk.AI, decentralization, and the next era of industrial warfare – As AI becomes more embedded in military decision-making and logistics, the balance between centralization and decentralization is being redefined. AI-driven drones, automated mining, and predictive supply chain management are reshaping how nations prepare for conflict. However, this also introduces risks, as AI operates within unpredictable “black boxes,” potentially leading to unintended consequences in warfare and resource management.

In this conversation I speak with Sam Bendett, one of the worlds leading experts on Russian weapons development and capabilities, drones, AI, and the war in Ukraine. Sam is an advisor for the Center for Naval Analyses and an adjunct senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security, an honorary “mad scientist” with the Mad Scientist Initiative of the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command, and a Russian military autonomy and artificial intelligence subject matter expert for the DOD's Defense Systems Information Analysis Center. We discuss drone warfare in Ukraine as it stands today. We cover the range of systems being fielded, counter measures, AI capabilities, what life is like for drone operators and soldiers on the line of contact, drone production pipelines and supply, and more. ►Watch On YouTube: https://youtu.be/cvBQ715PShw ►Find out more about Sam's work here: https://www.cna.org/our-experts/bendett-samuel https://www.csis.org/people/samuel-bendett ►Follow Sam on Twitter & Bluesky: @sambendett, @sambendett.bsky.social   These conversations are supported by the Andrea von Braun foundation (http://www.avbstiftung.de/), as an exploration of the rich, exciting, connected, scientifically literate, and (most importantly) sustainable future of humanity.

Interview with Ingvald, member of the “BIRDS OF FURY” unit of the Ukrainian armed forces. A unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that uses the «Backfire» unmanned aerial vehicle system which has been specially designed to destroy enemy forces and equipment. This drone can fly far beyond the front line, venting our fury on the enemy, and return home to pick up a new payload. The «Backfire» is immune to enemy radio electronic countermeasures, and like us, is ready to unleash its rightful rage against our genocidal invaders. However, we and our planes need your help to continue destroying the Russian occupiers before they come knocking on your door. ---------- LINKS: https://zlyizbir.org.ua/ https://zlyizbir.org.ua/en/ ---------- We ran two events in Ukraine in the last two weeks. Lviv (part 2) and Kyiv. The event we ran in August 2023 was a huge success, and had a great impact. Now our aim is even more ambitious. Two cities. Two events. Multiple panels consisting of the best experts, and all filmed in high definition for the channel. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras But it costs. Last time the overall cost was £3,500 for Live in Lviv, and we covered 80% of this through ticket sales. This time the costs are higher, and there's less opportunity to sell tickets at the available venues and studios, so I'm creating a campaign to raise £5,000 to make this trip a reality. We also have a much more ambitious programme to film interviews around Kyiv and Lviv for the channel. This project will have an impact, so please help if you can. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISER A project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.

In this episode, we examine the economics of drone warfare.

Retired Australian Army Major General Mick Ryan–author of three recent books on the future of warfare–joins our hosts Ray Powell and Jim Carouso to discuss how autonomous weapons (drones) are challenging our military assumptions, and their implications for Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific. Mick draws lessons from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and asserts that drones don't necessarily mean the obsolescence of current inventories of manned weapon systems, but will require significant cultural and organizational changes to integrate them into our strategies, tactics and force structure. Mick considers the U.S. “Replicator” project to field drones at high volume, and the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command's notion of turning the Taiwan Strait into a drone “hellscape” for any potential invasion. He also talks about how developing countries can leverage inexpensive drone technology to level the playing field against larger aggressors.If you enjoyed this conversation, don't forget to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts so you won't miss an episode!

In this episode of the Eye on AI podcast, Tyler Xuan Saltsman, CEO of Edgerunner, joins Craig Smith to explore how AI is reshaping military strategy, logistics, and defense technology—pushing the boundaries of what's possible in modern warfare.   Tyler shares the vision behind Edgerunner, a company at the cutting edge of generative AI for military applications. From logistics and mission planning to autonomous drones and battlefield intelligence, Edgerunner is building domain-specific AI that enhances decision-making, ensuring national security while keeping humans in control.   We dive into how AI-powered military agents work, including the LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) model, which fine-tunes AI to think and act like military specialists—whether in logistics, aircraft maintenance, or real-time combat scenarios. Tyler explains how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and small language models allow warfighters to access mission-critical intelligence without relying on the internet, bringing real-time AI support directly to the battlefield.   Tyler also discusses the future of drone warfare—how AI-driven, vision-enabled drones can neutralize threats autonomously, reducing reliance on human pilots while increasing battlefield efficiency. With autonomous swarms, AI-powered kamikaze drones, and real-time situational awareness, the landscape of modern warfare is evolving fast.   Beyond combat, we explore AI's role in security, including advanced weapons detection systems that can safeguard military bases, schools, and public spaces. Tyler highlights the urgent need for transparency in AI, contrasting Edgerunner's open and auditable AI models with the black-box approaches of major tech companies.   Discover how AI is transforming military operations, from logistics to combat strategy, and what this means for the future of defense technology.   Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for more deep dives into AI, defense, and cutting-edge technology!   Stay Updated: Craig Smith Twitter: https://twitter.com/craigss Eye on A.I.

Islamophobia across the Western world is on the rise. It is a pernicious prejudice that seems to have seeped into public acceptance. It is not just the prize of the ultra right, across the West, even liberal minded governments have sought to malign Muslims unjustly. Consider President Macron's separatism Act, that maligns in effect any believer that follows the shariah. Or consider at home, the Labour government's reluctance to recognise anti Muslim hatred as a cause of the most recent riots across northern England. Or the US administration downplaying the murder of Palestinians.My guest today, Dr Amina Shareef argues that Islamophobia is more than a visceral hatred. It is a death dealing project. It aims to dehumanise, and expose Muslim populations to death. Dr Amina is an academic specialising in anti-Muslim racism, Islamophobia and the war on terror policies, practices and its impact upon Muslims .You can find Dr Amina Shareef here:Website: https://aminashareef.com/ Twitter: @AminaShareef1Let me remind all viewers that to help us continue to engage critical thought at this time, Please consider becoming a Patron. https://www.patreon.com/TheThinkingMuslimYou can also support The Thinking Muslim through a one-time donation: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/DonateListen to the audio version of the podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7vXiAjVFnhNI3T9Gkw636aApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-thinking-muslim/id1471798762Sign up to Muhammad Jalal's newsletter: https://jalalayn.substack.comPurchase our Thinking Muslim mug: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com/merchFind us on:Patron. https://www.patreon.com/TheThinkingMuslimTwitter: https://twitter.com/thinking_muslimFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/The-Thinking-Muslim-Podcast-105790781361490Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thinkingmuslimpodcast/Telegram: https://t.me/thinkingmuslimBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/thinkingmuslim.bsky.socialHost: https://twitter.com/jalalaynHost IG: https://www.instagram.com/jalalayns/Website Archive: https://www.thinkingmuslim.com Hosted on Acast.

PREVIEW: DRONES: SOUTH KOREA: JAPAN Upcoming discussion with Henry Sokolski of the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center (NPEC) will examine a war game scenario exploring the implications of North Korean drone warfare targeting nuclear infrastructure. The analysis focuses on a hypothetical hybrid attack where drones strike a nuclear power plant in South Korea, potentially triggering mass evacuations across South Korea and Japan. This scenario raises critical questions about regional security vulnerabilities, drone defense capabilities, and the cascading effects of attacks on civilian nuclear facilities. The conversation will explore how such hybrid warfare tactics could destabilize the region through panic and mass displacement, even without conventional military engagement. Sokolski's insights should illuminate emerging security challenges at the intersection of drone technology, nuclear safety, and regional stability in East Asia. 1951 North Korea negotiators

Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Pace served in the U.S. Army for 22 years. He first deployed to Afghanistan at the beginning of the War on Terror as an infantryman, then redeployed to Afghanistan in ‘03. After attending officer candidate school, Pace then deployed to Iraq as a company executive officer in ‘07.  Pace then decided to join the U.S. Army Special Forces (Green Berets). He did work in places like Colombia, Peru, Europe and Central America, doing foreign internal defense before returning to Afghanistan in 2019 as a part of Special Operation Forces. There, he oversaw drone warfare. In this interview, Pace talks about his deployment to Iraq, joining the Green Berets, and the horrors of drone warfare:  “I started to feel like I was running some kind of weird factory, where our product was human tragedies, where we're just blowing up these people over and over, we're just watching it night after night. And it started to bother me, but it did achieve its desired effect. It did achieve its impact. Again, it's a very effective way to do business.”  Click here to check out Two Weeks In Hell, the Discovery Channel show about the Green Beret's training which features LTC Pace.  Learn more about your ad choices.

For two-and-a-half years, Ukraine has been fighting Russia with the goal of “total victory” – to not only beat President Vladimir Putin's forces back to the border, but to reclaim all territory annexed by Russia since 1991.  But as both President Volodymyr Zelensky and Putin's popularity and resources fade, and as another winter approaches, it's possible that a more pragmatic end to the war could be in sight.  Today, editor-in-chief of The Economist Zanny Minton Beddoes, on what it would take for a permanent end to the fighting, and the future for Ukraine if that can't be reached.  Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram Guest: Editor-in-chief of The Economist Zanny Minton Beddoes
