“Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.” Those of the words of Sun Tzu, author of the The Art of War. There’s no doubt in my mind that Israel and the Arab League have created strategic special forces, dubbed “C6ISR forces” by IDF Brigadier General Gal Hirsch (retired). The term…
Special forces versus forces capable of special operations
February 9, 2016
Last night I had my second interaction on Twitter with a man who claims to be a former member of the US Army Special Forces. He’s upset at me for using the term “special forces” to describe the 150,000 troops trained by Saudi Arabia to intervene in Syria (and Iran). I had to block the…

Though I don’t feel envy, I’m sometimes saddened when I see happy parents with children they love. So I can’t understand why Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen…

Almost everybody is really ordinary, now more than ever. In this Golden Age of Mediocrity, even the wolves are sheep. You see it everywhere. There’s no “ruling elite” that gets together to conspire against us. Almost all of the human race finds talent and excellence to be alienating. You know what the “one percenters” do…
