🔥Rising heat: It’s the theme of the summer with more than 1/3 of US states under extreme heat warnings.
Our conception of summer is changing from a time of fun & leisure to a period of emergency. @ArshtRock's @KBMcLeodFLA asks how we can relax when so many people are at risk?
Most people know the effects of global warming:

What are the markers on the path from radicalization to violence in both the international & domestic terrorism spheres?
An indicator for @georgetownICAP's Mary McCord is that once general ideological propaganda changes into logistical planning, the threat escalates. #360OS
“Data can also only get us so far in conflict zones because the role of social media is so heavily contextual. Social media really tends to be the most harmful when it's amplifying and reflecting back underlying tensions in these conflict zones.” #360OS
“Mediators should explore the potential of social media integration into peace agreements. Conflict parties might actually agree to exercise restraint in the online space the same way they agree to stop fighting physically via a ceasefire agreement.” #360OS
