The Islamic State, once a local insurgency rooted in Iraq and Syria, has transformed into a global network with far-reaching influence. In this episode of the podcast, we chart how its operations have expanded beyond the Middle East, as the group leveraged technology, propaganda, and local affiliates to spread its ideology across borders. Host Lucas Webber is joined by Aaron Zelin, a Fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy and founder of the widely acclaimed website, Jihadology. Aaron explains how The General Directorate of Provinces, a global hierarchy structure responsible for overseeing and coordinating Islamic State's global affiliates, is central to much of the group's expansion.

Brett kicks off the program by talking about the partial Ukraine ceasefire agreement between Trump and Putin, expressing his skepticism about its potential success due to his deep distrust of communism. He argues that while the ceasefire may seem like a step forward, history shows that deals with communist regimes are often unreliable. Brett also discusses the importance of the United States’ role in the world, stressing that America is the land of opportunity and freedom, unlike socialist or communist nations where citizens are restricted in pursuing their dreams. He criticizes the state of global politics, including the instability caused by regimes in Venezuela and Cuba, warning that the United States must remain vigilant against these growing threats.

China's cyber enterprise is rapidly growing: China-nexus activity was up 150% across industries in 2024, with a 200-300% surge in key sectors such as financial services, media, manufacturing, and industrials/engineering. CrowdStrike identified seven new China-nexus adversaries in 2024. “After decades investing in offensive cyber capabilities, China has achieved parity with some of the top players out there, and I think that is the thing that should terrify everybody,” Adam says.   China-nexus threat actors aren't the only ones evolving their cyber operations. As the CrowdStrike 2025 Global Threat Report shows, nation-state and eCrime adversaries spanning regions and skill levels are gaining speed and refining their techniques. They're learning what works and what doesn't, and they're scaling their effective tactics to achieve their goals. So what works? Voice phishing (vishing) skyrocketed 442% between the first and second half of 2024 as adversaries leaned on vishing, callback phishing, and help desk social engineering to access target networks. Generative AI played a key role in social engineering, where its low barrier to entry and powerful capabilities help adversaries create convincing content at scale. Compromised credentials also proved handy last year, helping threat actors enter and move laterally through organizations and operate as legitimate users.  What doesn't work as well? Malware. 79% of detections in 2024 were malware-free, indicating a rise in hands-on-keyboard activity as adversaries face stronger security defenses.  Tune in to hear Adam and Cristian dig into the key findings of the CrowdStrike 2025 Global Threat Report, which also examines the latest on cloud-focused attacks, vulnerability exploitation, and nation-state activity around the world.

Listeners will no doubt remember the devastating Ebola outbreak of 2014–2016. More than 28,600 people were infected, and 11,325 people died across several countries in West Africa. One of the hardest-hit places was Sierra Leone, where nearly 4,000 people lost their lives. In the years since, scientists and civil society advocates have raced to develop and implement a vaccine to protect against future outbreaks. That vaccine works—and works well. It was tested during outbreaks in the Democratic Republic of Congo and is now being deployed proactively to protect at-risk populations, including frontline health workers. This includes Sierra Leone, where the vaccine is being rolled out to 20,000 frontline workers so they can protect their communities and the world from the next outbreak. My guest today, Allyson Russell, is at the forefront of these efforts. She is the Senior Programme Manager for Outbreaks & Global Health Security, Vaccine Programs at GAVI—the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization—which is supporting the rollout of this vaccine in Sierra Leone. We begin by discussing the toll the 2014 outbreak inflicted on the region before diving into how this new Ebola vaccine will help prevent the next outbreak from spreading.

Strategic Risk Assessment Talk delves into the complex geopolitical landscape, focusing on the evolving situation in Ukraine as North Korean troops are reported to be aiding Russian forces. Host Hal Kempfer, a retired Marine intelligence officer, provides a deep analysis of the implications of North Korea's involvement, including the potential impact on regional stability and the dynamics of the ongoing conflict. Kempfer highlights the psychological and operational characteristics of North Korean troops, particularly the indoctrination they undergo which may influence their performance in combat. The episode also touches on the broader geopolitical ramifications, such as the response from South Korea and the potential shifts in military aid dynamics as the war progresses. As North Korea sends thousands of troops into the fray, the strategic chessboard in Europe becomes increasingly intricate, requiring careful monitoring and response from global powers. Kempfer's insights serve as a clarion call for understanding the multifaceted risks emerging from this development, emphasizing the need for a nuanced approach to international relations and conflict resolution.Kempfer also explores the recent U.S. military actions against Houthi positions in Yemen, where B2 bombers were deployed to conduct precision strikes on deeply buried targets. Hal Kempfer discusses the significance of these military operations, not only in terms of their immediate objectives but also in light of their messaging to regional actors, particularly Iran and Hezbollah. The use of advanced stealth technology signals a commitment to maintaining strategic superiority and deterrence capabilities in the Middle East. Kempfer contextualizes these actions within the broader framework of U.S. foreign policy, examining how they fit into the ongoing tensions with Iran and the potential for escalation in the region. The discussion also reflects on the implications for U.S. allies and adversaries alike, reinforcing the idea that military readiness and capability remain critical components of international diplomacy.The podcast concludes with a compelling analysis of the power shifts within Hamas following the death of its leader, Yahya Sinwar. Hal Kempfer outlines the immediate challenges Hamas faces in maintaining cohesion and effectiveness amidst significant losses in Gaza. The leadership vacuum left by Sinwar raises questions about the future direction of the organization, the potential for a ceasefire, and the implications for Israeli-Palestinian relations. Kempfer emphasizes the complexities of succession and the influence of external actors, such as Qatar and the UAE, in shaping the post-war landscape. He also considers the potential for a unified Palestinian front and the impact of international diplomatic efforts on the ground situation. The episode underscores the intricate interplay of local and international factors that define the current state of affairs in the region, highlighting the necessity for informed strategic assessments in navigating these turbulent waters.Takeaways: Hal Kempfer discusses the implications of North Korean troops being sent to assist Russia in Ukraine, highlighting the potential consequences for the conflict. The U.S. has imposed sanctions on Chinese companies supplying military drones to Russia, indicating escalating tensions in the geopolitical landscape. The recent deployment of B2 bombers against Houthi positions in Yemen demonstrates the U.S.'s commitment to maintaining military capabilities in the region. The death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar raises questions about the future leadership and strategy of Hamas amid ongoing conflict with Israel. Kempfer suggests that the involvement of North Korean forces in Ukraine might compel South Korea to reconsider its policy on arms to Ukraine. The...
