Guns: Now that Vice President Joseph Biden's task force on revamping U.S. gun laws is complete, "a legislative fight must be waged. . . . A good first battle should be a law requiring every gun buyer to pass a criminal background check. An estimated 40 percent of gun sales take place in an unregulated private market that enables virtually anyone with cash to secure an arsenal."

U.S. Military:
"The Pentagon said this week there were 349 suicides by active-duty members of the armed services in 2012, as opposed to 311 combat deaths. . . . More than half of troops who killed themselves had never deployed from the U.S., and 85 percent never saw combat. Although caring for those returning from battle remains a priority, the military needs to better monitor the mental health of all service members."

"The debt ceiling is an instrument of economic self-harm. It's ridiculous and should be scrapped." But President Barack Obama "should be open to replacing it with something more intelligent. . . . Several variants are possible. One would cap growth in federal spending at the trend rate of growth of the economy."

"A slight acceleration in Chinese economic growth at the end of last year is reinforcing the common narrative that China's expansion is a threat to other nations, including the U.S. The bigger danger over the medium term, however, may be a slowdown in Chinese growth -- which appears to be more likely than most U.S.-based commentators seem to realize."

On Dec. 28, Greek Finance Minister George Papaconstantinou "was accused of removing names from a list of Greeks with Swiss bank accounts -- the so-called Lagarde list -- and he was expelled from the socialist Pasok party." Not only does this "demonstrate the kind of institutional failure that has landed the country in so much trouble, but it could also mark the beginning of the end for the current coalition government -- and possibly for Greece's euro-area membership, as well."

Chuck Hagel, President Barack Obama's nominee for U.S. secretary of defense "has told friends that he takes Dwight Eisenhower, a fellow soldier, as his model. . . . Hagel shares Eisenhower's strong reluctance to use military force to intervene in foreign crises. Unlike civilians who have never served or commanded in war, Eisenhower had, and Hagel has, a good understanding of everything that can go wrong on the battlefield."

"The assassinations last week in Paris of three female Kurdish activists from Turkey have, for now at least, had the opposite effect to the one their perpetrators almost certainly intended. Instead of engulfing the country with Kurdish anger, Turkish cynicism and a new cycle of violence, the killings have revealed the depth of public and political support behind efforts to negotiate an end to three decades of insurgency by the Kurdistan Workers' Party, better known as the PKK."
