This will be a sort of medley of old favorites . . .
Sovereignty . . . Strategy . . . Statecraft
. . . with special attention to Strategy, Operations, and Tactics.
The three assets of statecraft — Diplomacy, Finance, War-Fighting — activate in the three domains of life: Strategy, Operations, and Tactics. In theological discourse, these domains of life are referenced variously as The Triple Thread Of Life; Father, Son, Holy Spirit; Brahma, Siva, Vishnu. The three together constitute The Law of Expansion. Diplomacy, Finance, War-Fighting are each and all positive, constructive, objective building activities. Heraclitus described this reality with a famous dictum:
Conflict is the father of all things.
Intelligence is as useful as a person assessing it. Suvarovs, von Mansteins, Mac Arthurs, and Zhukovs do not lay about in abundance awaiting activation. Data is not intelligence. Competent, refined, self-confident persons, persons with unique, identifiable names and faces, persons who can and do intuit what is happening broadly and actually, people who see through data to the truth, the big picture . . . these persons are intelligence. Everything else is noise, including so-called artificial intelligence.
Every General Staff and military school in the world will study appreciatively the Russian way of war, and today, the way Russians conduct the nations’ first war mutually and fully inside the planet-over electronic envelope. Doctrine is more consequential than armaments. Spirit is more consequential than finance.
Russians have beaten to the punch every military-industrial establishment, including the American one — their only near-peer — in numerous and consequential particulars.
No armed force in the world has experience defeating a force structure, capacity for surprise, or tools of lethality such as Russia puts today on a battlefield of her choosing. NATO armed forces are tasting it, yet so far at least, NATO seem not to care or even want victory over their stated enemy (Russia). None has counter-force to some of Russia’s weapons designed to operate in the planet-over electronic envelope. Air defense and hypersonic projectiles, including sub-surface aquatic devices, come to mind.
American war doctrine derives from German General and Staff Officers who fought on the Eastern Front during World War II. That is, American war doctrine derives from the reminiscences of losers.
Russia is annihilating NATO morale, doctrine, equipment, personnel, and industrial base. NATO nations themselves, subject to drug-and promiscuity-induced Green ideology, already had disavowed requirements and terminated abilities requisite to defeating a nation of Russia’s morale, history, natural resources, and strategic, operational, and tactical prowess.
All this the nations now see and study for lessons learned. The salient points are not lost to most of them.
The hubris of Anglo-American FIRE folks — Finance, Insurance, Real Estate — is no match for intelligence, much less for kindness.
This is what Russia has done to the nations:
I am trying here to develop some aphorisms regarding the interplay of strategics, operations, and tactics in a nation’s affairs. To wit:
A nation’s strategic objectives are political — protect and defend one’s sovereign morale, territory, communications, industry, and finance, or be someone’s vassal.
A nation’s operational objectives are human-technological — annihilate an aggressor’s personnel and equipment as needful to achieve strategic success.
A nation’s tactical objectives are temporal-geographical — seize or release land as needful to achieve operational success.
and
Tactical and operational objectives are unachievable in the absence of sound, accomplishable strategic objectives. The corps of warfare is strategic operations, not tactical events.
Renouncing or ignoring a nation’s strategic objectives while essaying tactical and operational successes through diplomacy, finance, and war-fighting guarantees calamity to spread throughout a nation’s institutions. Euro-American degenerates engineer calamity in their nations’ institutions by renouncing or ignoring their nations’ strategic objectives. They are quite content doing that and accepting the havoc it summons.
To purify and recover a nation’s institutions, therefore, lay out for her consideration strategic objectives that cultivate self-confidence among her citizens. They’ll do the rest. Americans make proper decisions when offered the truth.
Americans NeoCons / Fascists are ready
to fight Russia to the last European.
It’s obvious to everyone now that Russia’s SMO-Ukraine acts as spear tip of the nations’ resolve to overthrow the hegemonic ambitions dear to American NeoCons and Euro-American Fascists generally. In addition, the nations recognize that to annihilate those ambitions they must activate force vectors through all three assets of statecraft — Diplomacy, Finance, War-Fighting — using powers inhering in the three domains of life — Strategy, Operations, Tactics.
Equally obvious to everyone is that Neo-Cons / Fascists have neither requirements, resources, nor intelligence sufficient to enforce their hegemonic ambitions on the nations, at least not and still have a planet to hegemon on and about.
American NeoCons and Euro-American Fascists generally — aka Globalists — have distinguished themselves for unremitting nastiness. Here are some names Victoria Nuland, Robert Kagan, Kimberly Kagan, Henry Morgenthau, Jr., and his Plan, Irving and Bill Kristol, Hans Morgenthau, Jonah Goldberg.
Basically, an Ashkenazy Jewish pogrom, a jihad against Christianity and Russians especially, to punish the latter for throwing off Bolshevik Revolutionaries and repairing to Mother Russia and Mother Church. 80%-95% of Bolsheviks — depending on who’s counting — were Ashkenazy Jews.
Then there are the FIRE folks — Finance, Insurance, Real Estate. God and the nations see their machinations and are not amused.
- indicabo tibi o homo quid sit bonum et quid Dominus quaerat a te utique facere iudicium et diligere misericordiam et sollicitum ambulare cum Deo tuo
- I will shew thee, O man, what is good, and what the Lord requireth of thee: Verily to do judgment, and to love mercy, and to walk solicitous with thy God.
