    Command Post: "How Tough Is Cutting $400 Billion?"
    Date: 07/25/2011
    Media: Video

    Just how tough is it going to be for the Pentagon and other national-security agencies to cut $400 billion from their spending between now and 2023? Those are the marching orders President Obama has given his tea, led by budget-cutting expert Leon Panetta, who has just moved from the CIA to the Pentagon. John Nagl of the Center for a New American Security and your Battlelander discuss the challenge with Dave Barno, retired Army lieutenant general, and Nora Bensahel, a military strategist formerly at the Rand Corp. and now at CNAS.

    Command Post Episode Five: "The Challenge of Pakistan"

    When it comes to fingering trouble spots in the arc of crisis that springs from the Middle East and ranges west to Libya and east to India, No. 1 -- with a bullet -- is invariably Pakistan. It's a vexing stew of tribal rivalries, economic stresses, religious hatreds and a perpetual war alert -- perhaps including nuclear war -- against neighboring India. So we wrap up the first week of Command Post with a deeper look into the challenge it poses. Thanks for watching!

    Command Post Episode Three: "Counter-Insurgency versus Counter-Terrorism?"
    Date: 07/13/2011
    Media: Video

    Since President Obama announced his plan to begin pulling 33,000 troops out of Afghanistan by the end of next summer, there's been a lot of debate over whether this marks the end of a counter-insurgency campaign and the beginning of a counter-terror strategy. Is it really a binary choice -- does it have to be one or the other  -- and does it make any difference to the grunts on the ground?
