Chinese President Xi Jinping refused to attend the G20 Summit in New Delhi. If he thinks that he is too important then he is sadly mistaken. If he thought that he was flopping the India show then also he has failed miserably. I dig deeper into CCP & the Chinese mentality: https://youtu.be/ur4NhkRVHk0?si=LV6eWq8YYNld3Bc8

Winning the Peace (Ch. 4) Redux
Winning the Peace (WTP and/or WP â Willy Pete?), and the FAOs in the program are organized within each partner nation similarly to an infantry platoon reinforced. Platoon commander (O-5), platoon sergeant (E-8), corpsman, radio telephone operator (RTOs), squad leaders (O-4), fire team leaders (O-3), and grunts (enlisted advisors).

Civil War vs. Secession
People have been throwing around the idea of a new âcivil warâ in the US, like in the 1860s. We should be so lucky. Our Civil War was a regional conflict. Everybody knew where the North ended and the South began. We didnât have pro-slavery people operating as saboteurs in the North, nor vice-versa. Both … Continue reading Civil War vs. Secession

On the other hand they are filled with lot of really … Continue reading Plan Mexico: Winning the Peace #1 (readersâ advisory: esoteric military stuff)
Preface: LtCol S.x MacTemplar -Shadow Warrior
Where to begin? It seems that war is just too big of a topic for Hollywood to handle in 90-110 minutes. Go figure. I know I canât do it justice in 300-plus pages, either, but it will be more accurate than anything Hollywood can dish up. I suspect what people want from Hollywood is to … Continue reading Preface: LtCol S.x MacTemplar -Shadow Warrior
