...indications that Iran was nearing operational nuclear arms have been growing stronger in the last few months.  Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad unveiled on April 9 a revamped centrifuge capable of enriching uranium at faster speeds that, according to the State Department, would be unnecessary for peaceful nuclear power. The Arak heavy water plant and the Bushehr atomic reactor, both almost completed, could combine to produce dangerous quantities of plutonium for nuclear warheads. Furthermore, according to the “Weekly Standard,” a thus far unreleased report by the International Atomic Energy Agency documents that Iran...

...this stage in its development of nuclear technology. Of course, I am not advocating that we all start singing renditions of “Bomb Iran,” but military action should not be disallowed on principle. In fact, I would argue that our reliance on soft power without the implicit threat of true hard power is the fundamental reason why both North Korea and Iran have comfortably duped...

...What’s really revolutionary about new media is its accessibility,” Kuriyama says. “It doesn’t take a high level of training and expensive equipment to do remarkable things, and that’s the power of it.” Kuriyama believes that the short films currently in production truly are “new media”—perhaps even a new genre. Although the short films may overlap with movie-making techniques, they are often made without movie cameras and actual footage. They sometimes have narration...
