Japan Unveils New Security Strategy
This first DOWD Report in the series "Japan Unveils New Military Security Strategy" explores reasons for the unprecedented increase in defense spending. Ultimately within the next four years, the National Security Strategy is calling on Japan’s government and citizenry to “take the necessary measures to make the level of its budget, for both the fundamental reinforcement of defense capabilities and complementary initiatives, reach 2 percent of the current GDP”
Japan's Arming for Cold War II
In this second report on Japan's increase in defense spending, Mr. Dowd describes where the additional funding went and which Nations are supplying the aircraft, missile defense systems, and drones they are upgrading to. Aircraft carriers are being repurposed, with the overall hope that this increased strength and presence will be a deterrent for physical altercations.

China - The taking of the South Pacific Islands
China is using the Belt and Road Initiative Strategy (BRI) as a predatory lending scheme to get Pacific Island Nations indebted beyond their ability to pay under the guise of modernization. Many of these Island Nations were liberated at the cost of American lives during previous wars. Now the Chinese Communist Party has taken possession of ports and influenced Island Leaders to embrace communism without ever firing a shot.
