Threats Watch
Well, it isn't 100% done, but it's time to invite a few more readers to check it out.
The new site, Threats Watch, is functional, mostly. We haven't published the initial assessments of the various threats, or posts of any sort other than the initial welcome statement but many of the category pages now have news feeds and resource links attached to them. The current welcome post is on every page, but it'll disappear from them once we start updating the them with assessments or regular post on issues and events.
Check it out, share your feedback here or there. And if you find something that's broken, by all means let me know. Also tell Tom and Bill what you think of it, as they've been instrumental to its development and will have regular updates beginning shortly.
A couple of technical notes - we use a combination of del.icou.us, mySQLicious, and lots of php to feed the news into each page. To select the news and commentary, we are using Feed on Feeds. I highly recommend them all.

A quick scan over there and... Hey, I like it! The setup, layout, and categories seemed reasonably intuitive for "clicking" around the site and ending up where you thought you'd be (does that make sense?)
Just curious, though... in what category would you place illegal immigration? I may have missed it.

Good question. Not there yet, but a page under the U.S. category will include domestic concerns. We'll most likely address illegal immigration, tort reform, property rights, etc. on that page. Somehow the politics page is there but that one isn't. I'll have to poke around abit.

That's very good. My only suggestion is to add France to the list of Strategic Adversaries.
