Great to see our forum on US military humanitarianism out with Modern American History @modamhist.bsky.social! It’s been fun working with Brian Drohan Julia Irwin Elisabeth Piller and Adam Seipp first on a roundtable for SHAFR Conference and then as this forum. Check it out here: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

We'd surely prefer our forum on US military humanitarianism to be less timely but at least it can provide useful context Brian Drohan Julia Irwin Adam Seipp Dr. Mary Elizabeth Walters 🇺🇦

To bring it all home, Dr. Mary Elizabeth Walters 🇺🇦 considers the fundamental contradictions between #humanitarianism and #militarism. Thank you so much to these wonderful authors for such a timely and engaging forum! cambridge.org/core/journals/…

As we wait to see if the #ceasefire comes into force in #Gaza, here’s our take on what it would take to make it sustainable in Newsweek. And as always, it’s great to work with Jacob Stoil and Nir Arielli

With the future of the ceasefire between #Israel & #Lebanon increasingly uncertain - what can be done to save it? I partnered with Nir Arielli & Dr. Mary Elizabeth Walters 🇺🇦 to look at solutions! Check out our findings in Newsweek! newsweek.com/how-turn-fragi…

It’s hard to overstate what a seismic change this is. Not only is Germany rearming, but its neighbors and Europe in general are praising the vote. This shift raises interesting questions about the memory and legacy of WWII in Germany and Europe. bbc.com/news/articles/…
