Military analysis and education for civilian leaders

Institute for the Study of War – a tremendous resource!

Last Friday, ISW was honored to host General David H. Petraeus for a conversation with Dr. Kimberly Kagan entitled CENTCOM in 2010: Views from General David H. Petraeus. General Petraeus discussed his competing regional priorities at U.S. Central Command and offered a strategic overview of his AOR, explaining the dynamic effect it has on American national security.

Full videos and transcripts of the event are now available at UnderstandingWar.org.

In the 3-part video, General Petraeus touches on almost every major problem set facing CENTCOM, including

  • Saudi Arabia and Iran’s influence in Yemen,
  • Iran’s illicit nuclear weapons program,
  • Iraq’s future partnership with the United States and
  • the Tehrik-i-Taliban (TTP) terrorist group in Pakistan.

The topics discussed with General Petraeus and Dr. Kagan are vital to America’s pressing national security issues. As such, ISW encourages you to help us make these videos go viral – please share on Facebook, Twitter or your favorite blog!

If you have not already done so, please become a friend of ISW on Facebook or on Twitter today.

Many Thanks,

Megan Ortagus
