SIGNAL, Not Noise! By AJ

New here. Strategic geopolitics strategist, practitioner and leader in global corporate security, and author. Former military. 21 years across military, corporate security, investigations and critical infrastructure.

Original ideas, original analysis and original content: strategic realism, realpolitik, first principles, design thinking and order of effects logic, applied to geopolitics, military strategy, strategic security and politics.

I look beyond the headlines to find the SIGNAL, Not the Noise. The US, Israel and Iran war, Russia and Ukraine, energy, sanctions, and the leading indicators that move before the news does: Toyota shipments, gold flows, military blood logistics and my 49-indicator tracker.

Every forecast is dated, so it can be checked against the record.

Top 10 in World Politics on Substack. Published in The Times and 30+ publications. Cited by the US Congressional Research Service. Appeared on LCI, French national television. Author of SIGNAL READY.
