** Good Evening,
------------------------------------------------------------
It's Monday, June 5th.

** London Bridge
------------------------------------------------------------
Two of the three men who carried out Saturday night's terror attack in London have been named by police. The BBC reports (http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-40165646?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=d58ff4ff4a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_06_05&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-d58ff4ff4a-145367789) that Pakistan-born Khuram Butt, 27, of Barking, London, had been known to police and MI5 but there had not been any intelligence about an attack. All 12 people arrested after the attack have now been released without charge.

London’s Telegraph has compiled a report on the identified attackers: “Everything we know about them (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/06/05/ringleader-london-bridge-terror-attack-named-khuram-butt/?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=d58ff4ff4a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_06_05&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-d58ff4ff4a-145367789) .”

** Critical Quote
------------------------------------------------------------

** “Meeting General Nicholson’s requests should be clearly tied to tight limits on every type of military and civil aid. Conditionality should be applied both to Afghan military performance and political and civil performance.”

Cordesman authored a new commentary today, “Giving Afghanistan a Fighting ‘Last Chance’ (https://www.csis.org/analysis/giving-afghanistan-fighting-last-chance?utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=d58ff4ff4a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_06_05&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-d58ff4ff4a-145367789) .”

Music has healing power. There is no doubt about it. Yesterday, the “One Love Manchester” concert took place even as England was coping with Saturday’s terrorist attack on London Bridge.

There were great moments during the “One Love” show. I loved when hometown legend Liam Gallagher of Oasis and Coldplay performed the Oasis standard “Live Forever (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDJlPG_M600&utm_source=CSIS+All&utm_campaign=d58ff4ff4a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_06_05&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_f326fc46b6-d58ff4ff4a-145367789) .”
