Hoplology prevents me from being fooled into panicking

Everyone should study hoplology, the science of combat. A good hoplologist can tell you about the video below. It’s said to show a Russian precision air strike on a tank of the Levant Conquest Front in Aleppo. The reporter is from al Jazeera. What actually happened is that the tank fired its main gun. That’s…

Defeat the enemy without giving him a reason to rise again

Although I’ve studied warfare for over forty years, I was wrong about how to defeat the enemy. This is what I used to believe. This is actually not true. Killing large numbers of combatants causes trauma that will never heal. Death is the main reason that the western powers can’t create peace in any region…

Washington Post becomes propaganda arm of the Islamic State

I learned during the 2014 Gaza war that western journalists support jihadist terrorists. The main reason is bigotry. Western journalists don’t see jihadist terrorists as adults with the same brains as non-Muslim Europeans and Americans. To the average western journalist, Muslims are cute little aboriginals who can’t really do any harm. This is why the…

Echolalia is a disorder. Get some help so that you can stop

In the last few years of his life, my father developed echolalia. “Where are you going?” I’d ask. “Where are you going?” he’d answer. Echolalia is the mindless repetition of what others say. My father had diabetes that he refused to manage. It wreaked havoc with his thought processes. The rest of you have no…

Firepower now has multiple applications

For centuries, firepower meant only one thing. The “best” weapons killed the largest number of people in the the shortest amount of time. Probably in around 2005, the Gulf Cooperation Council made peace with Israel. Together they created weapons that increase firepower and narrow its scope. To me, the motivation doesn’t matter. I don’t care…

Useless “analysts” and “experts” should shut up

Every day, we see more useless blather from self-described experts on the Middle East. These people are all idiots. Their opinions are completely wrong. All they need to do is study munitions and military operations. Then they’ll know the truth. Let me show you how easy it is. One of these men fighting for the…

Machinations are not the same as conspiracies

Well-meaning people direct the close minded to my blog. The usual response is, “It’s just a bunch of conspiracy theories.” No. I write about machinations, not conspiracies. Here’s the difference. Conspiracy: a secret plan that two or more people hatch in order to do something harmful or illegal. Machination: a complicated secret plan. Guess who…

Hidebound is another word that everyone should know

The reason that I’m a hermit is that most people are far too repulsive and belligerent for me to allow in my life. This is especially true in my main field of interest. Military buffs tend to be aggressively ignorant and hidebound. Because I don’t think like them, they’ve begun the fifth large-scale round of…

American response versus Arab League response to attacks

In Syria, Russia decided to once again test so-called American resolve. On June 16, 2016, Russian aircraft dropped cluster munitions on US-backed rebels in al-Tanf. The bombers were the Su-34 Fullback. To protect the rebels, the US scrambled two F/A-18 Super Hornet fighters from an aircraft carrier in the Mediterranean. The US pilots contacted the…

Beware those with an agenda to demoralize and anger you

It’s not my place to tell Muslims how to think or feel. All I do is provide information that people can use to help make a better world. I support everyone who strives to improve. Therefore I need to say that you must beware of those with an agenda to destroy. They play on your…
