Zalmay Khalilzad, Jerry Boykin, Gordon Chang, Roger Robinson

ZALMAY KHALILZAD, formerly a US Ambassador to the UN, Afghanistan, and Iraq, lays out what remaining leverage Russia has over the US in Afghanistan. He also explains why he is hopeful that this Saturday's presidential elections in Afghanistan will see a president elected who is in favor of a bilateral security agreement with the US. 

Lt. Gen. JERRY BOYKIN, Executive Vice President of the Family Research Council, argues that social experimentation is turning the US military into a homeland defense force, unable to respond effectively to problems overseas. He also reports on the FBI's apparent severing of ties with the controversial Southern Poverty Law Center. 

GORDON CHANG, of Forbes.com and World Affairs Journal, weighs in on the rationale leading up to North Korea's recent non-lethal shelling into South Korean waters. Chang goes on to discuss an array of topics that include China's courting of South Korea, President Obama's recent effort to restore Korean-Japanese relations, and First Lady Michelle Obama's trip to China.

Former Senior Director of International Economic Affairs at the National Security Council ROGER ROBINSON draws parallels between the implementation of economic warfare in the U.S.S.R. of old and Putin's Russian Federation of today. He details further several measures by which the United States and its NATO allies can best combat Russia's economic strategy.
