Readers will recall that, for a week last June, Ben was hanging out in Bangkok, at the International Military Law and Operations (MILOPS) Conference.  While there, he took in an interesting and important address by Alan Liotta, a senior Defense Department official who focuses on the United States' detention policies worldwide. Liotta's remarks---on, unsurprisingly enough, the present and future of U.S. detention operations---constitute the thirty-fourth episode in our Lawfare Podcast series.
