The targeting intelligence isn’t there. Guided bombs find markets, not camps.

Warner 26 — Lesley Anne Warner. April 22. Africa security analyst and columnist covering African security affairs for World Politics Review. World Politics Review, “Nigeria’s Airpower-Centric Counterinsurgency Is Costing Civilian Lives,” https://www.worldpoliticsreview.com/nigeria-boko-haram-iswap-jilli-civilian-casualties/ Clopus the free portion of a paywalled article---the cut ends where the paywall does

On the evening of April 11, Nigerian military airstrikes hit a market in the northeastern village of Jilli, located near the epicenter of the country’s two-decadelong jihadist insurgency, killing as many as 200 civilians. While defending the choice of target as a terrorist enclave and logistics hub, the Nigerian Air Force subsequently announced it was dispatching a fact-finding mission to assess the extent of possible civilian casualties.

The Jilli market bombing is the latest in a series of government airstrikes over the past decade that have killed civilians, underscoring the Nigerian military’s continued challenges with intelligence , target identification and air-ground integration. Between 2017 and 2024, more than 500 civilians were killed in such attacks, both in the northeast against the two jihadist insurgencies operating there—Boko Haram and the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP)—as well as in the northwest against armed criminal groups that the government generally refers to as “bandits.” In January 2017, an airstrike hit a camp for internally displaced persons in Rann . Another strike in December 2023 struck a religious gathering in Kaduna .

Recognizing that civilian deaths boost extremist recruitment, the Nigerian Air Force unveiled a Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response (CHMR) action plan in May 2025 and inaugurated a dedicated CHMR Board two months later in July. The Jilli airstrike makes it clear that a gap remains between this emphasis on civilian harm mitigation and operational practice.

How it works

You write one sentence. DebAGI does the rest.

Two layers. In the human layer you write one sentence describing the file you want, and four files come back to your inbox: a .docx, a .cmir, a zip of every source, and the check log. In the agent layer, DebAGI researches the literature, cuts the cards, then runs quality control; a card that fails quality control goes back to research, and the loop repeats until it passes.

The deliverable

What you get.

.docx
The file itself, in Word or Verbatim. Tagged, cited, underlined and highlighted, ready to read.
.cmir
The same file for CardMirror.
evidence.zip
The raw PDF of every article the file was cut from, whole.
gates.txt
The check log for your file, exactly as it ran.

Why this exists

Two reasons

Accessibility.

The alternative to AI-cut cards isn’t that students cut cards themselves. It’s that they were born in the right zip code, pay tens of thousands of dollars to attend school, or are already on the circuit and paying $600 for a file.

It is impossible to match a big school or private coaching on the quantity and quality of evidence. Until now. AI card cutting democratizes files and ensures small schools can not only compete but equalize the playing field, no matter who they are up against. The winners of debate shift from whose school came with the most coaches to true debate skill.

Skills.

Debaters today will graduate into a post-AGI world. The skills we teach should not be legacy ones from an era before Claude existed. To be forward-looking is to avoid arbitrarily insulating debaters from the transformative technology that will define their generation.

AI-cut cards force a shift up the abstraction layer, putting ever more weight on strategic decision-making, parsing information quickly, and getting up to speed on research you have zero context on. It is paperless again: legacy coaches worried that Googling in round would kill the activity, and instead it moved on and let students learn the skills that actually matter for their future.

Questions

The objections, answered straight.

Is it legitimate to read this evidence in a round?

It is the exact same as if a coach had written the file for you. Every card body is full text from a real published source. Every card carries a full cite. Nothing inside the body is paraphrased, summarized, reworded or reinvented, and the file arrives with every single source document attached so that you can prove it rather than assert it.

If your league, tournament or coach wants that disclosed, disclose it. Nothing about this makes the card any more or less true.

What does it refuse to do?

It does not paraphrase a source and present the paraphrase as a quotation. It does not invent an author, a date, a title or a URL. It does not cut behind a paywall it cannot read: where the free portion of an article stops, the card stops and the cite says so in words.

Who is it for?

Policy and Lincoln-Douglas, high school and college. A full file or a single card. Affs, disads, counterplans, kritiks, topicality shells, case negatives, and answers to whatever you lost to last weekend.

Coaches use it to fill the holes in a prep set the week of a tournament, so the squad spends its evenings drilling instead of reading PDFs.

How do you check for evidence ethics?

Every card goes through a comprehensive review to make sure it passes the rules for ethically cut evidence. Card bodies are diffed against the downloaded source, so an edited word or a paragraph quietly removed from the middle of a quotation fails. Highlighting has to sit inside an underline, so it cannot assemble a sentence the author never wrote.

We also send you a zip of the full articles behind everything it cuts, so you can verify any of it for yourself rather than taking our word for it.

Go and read the sample.
