Havana Syndrome is caused by directed energy weapons that have been secretly developed and that are used in covert attacks on U.S. diplomats and intelligence officers. This may be the start of new era of cognitive warfare, which targets the brain to covertly incapacitate and directly affect behavior.

At its zenith, the Islamic State was one of the most developed and powerful of the various militant organisations that have emerged within the Middle East in recent decades. Not limiting its objectives to organising mass casualty attacks, it constructed a complex system of administration, including an outreach department, which produced a large body of film, social media and literature. Of these, its flagship publication, Dabiq (later renamed Rumiyah), has been its most significant English-language output, and has the potential to tell us a great deal about its ideas and those of other non-state armed actors that claim to maintain some kind of relationship with Islam. Islam and the Islamic State begins by tracing out the emergence of the Islamic State. It locates its separatist appeal within the aftermath of the Iraqi invasion and the early years of the occupation--particularly the Coalition's successful efforts to prevent the formation of a unified national resistance movement. It then goes on to position the West's efforts to reveal its "true nature" within established narratives on the relationship between Islam and violence. This campaign of "ideological delegitimisation" lay at the heart of the military campaign to denude the so-called Caliphate and was, Tim Jacoby argues, central to a global attempt to downplay its quintessentially political motives. With this context in mind, the book this book seeks to understand what the Islamic State says about itself. Attempting to get beyond the moral opprobrium that characterises many other studies, it looks in detail at Dabiq/Rumiyah. The objective here is to analyse how this vital corpus of literature engages with Islamic exegeses--in terms of references to the Qur'an, classical scholarship and contemporary Muslims intellectuals. This reveals a complex and highly instrumental approach to the faith that was fundamentally driven by a determined claim to statehood.

The Politics of Riverine Rights

War and Community in Late Antiquity

The self-evident truths of 1776 hover over America's divisions-as inspiring ideals, as measures of how far the nation still must come, as the hypocrisy of slaveholders, as intrusions on local traditions. The revolutionary politics of 1776 turned from securing the rights of Englishmen to establishing the authority of an independent nation. The battlefields of 1776 cast the military mould for the war years to come and gave an enduring symbol of gritty determination. Drawing together the eloquence of Jefferson and the insistence of Paine, the strategies of generals and the audacious tactics of armies on the move and the powerful political movement that transformed colonies into states, this history of 1776 is a leading scholar's distillation of the pivotal events that must be reckoned with two hundred and fifty years after the nation's birth.

The often-forgotten global story of how the Confederacy lost its bid for sovereign nationhood In 1861, proslavery secessionists severed ties with the United States, launched the Confederacy, and readied their new government to join the international community as a sovereign nation. In The First Pariah State, Robert Bonner tells the story of how a transatlantic publicity campaign dashed Confederate hopes by ostracizing its rebellion as an immoral, global menace. The international anti-Confederate campaign built on existing antislavery themes but moved far beyond them. Improvised indictments circulated secessionists’ most incendiary words across the world. The Union and its foreign allies condemned the marauding Southern navy for disrupting high-seas commerce, violating civilized norms, and preparing for the resumption of the African slave trade. Abraham Lincoln and Senator Charles Sumner sought to convert rhetorical barbs and maritime anxieties into novel doctrines of international law designed to counter rogue regimes. And Union opinion-makers, including Black abolitionists, worked with European supporters to stymie the South’s naval expansion, war finances, and diplomatic efforts to gain formal recognition. International worries about the Confederate rebellion waned after U.S. victory, and the Southern pariahdom of the 1860s left few enduring traces in international law or overseas remembrances. In fact, over the next century and a half, the pro-Confederate “Lost Cause” mythology proved to be as powerful abroad as it was within the restored United States.

Men-at-Arms

This fully illustrated study assesses the armies of Poland at war in the first half of the 16th century, during the transition from feudal to standing forces. Against a background of almost continual warfare, the 80 years after 1492 witnessed the slow transformation of Polish forces from feudal levies to standing armies. The bloody struggle between Poles, Lithuanians, Hungarians, Muscovites, Cossacks, Turks and Tatars culminated in the Union of Lublin in 1569, uniting the Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. This crucial period in Polish military history saw the introduction and development of famous troop categories such as the Polish hussars, and a tactical transformation with the introduction of foot and mounted hand-gunners to replace crossbowmen. Drawing upon a wealth of sources, the author explains the social and ethnic composition of armies and their methods of recruitment; their organizational structure, and that of units of different troop categories; their weapons, armour and equipment; their strategies and tactics; and campaign life. In this engaging book, specially commissioned artwork and rare illustrations combine with authoritative text to bring this under-researched subject to life for an English-language audience.

Oxford Handbooks

The second edition of The Oxford Handbook of National Security Intelligence is a thoroughly updated state-of-the-art work on the role of secret agencies in defending the democracies and intelligence activities in authoritarian regimes. Edited by Loch Johnson, one of the world's leading authorities on the subject, the handbook examines the topic in full, beginning with an examination of the major theories of intelligence. It then shifts its focus to how intelligence agencies operate, how they collect information from around the world, and the difficulties in disseminating intelligence to policymakers. It also considers the balance between secrecy and public accountability, and the ethical dilemmas that covert and counterintelligence operations routinely present to intelligence agencies. Throughout, contributors factor in broader historical and political contexts that are integral to understanding how intelligence agencies function in our information-dominated age.
