. Australia has just turned the most important port on its northern coast over to China. Control of the strategic Port of Darwin goes to a Chinese company with ties to the Communist government-for the next 99 years.
. Egypt's president Sisi is under siege from a number of directions-one of which is an alliance to take him down-that is developing between Hamas-and the Islamic state.
. Arms control treaties aimed at preventing the world from becoming an armed camp are falling to pieces.
. A Pentagon official says China and Russia are developing super-soldiers, unethically enhancing their infantry in ways that could change the way wars are fought.
