WikiLeaks is at it again, threatening a huge data dump on the Iraq war. Given that there were so many more people deployed in Iraq than Afghanistan, the number of documents will be significantly greater.
China's giving some hints of their political succession process with the elevation of VP Xi Jinping to a key military committee. This move comes as more countries are looking for help from China to contain Nork WMDs.

Guess what? There's a whole flotilla of terrorist enablers preparing to run the blockade that Israel has around Gaza. Sigh.

US AFRICOM hosted a maritime security conference attended by 19 African countries and 5 European ones.
