Yes, it would be different/harder carrying gear. But I'm sure if an XInfantry-game's contest rules required carrying/using...
The oil of Central Asia, and control over it, is the key to Russian survival. The situation has not changed today from Soviet times in terms of revenue for the Kremlin. Chechnya itself is a worthless...
Quite a long time ago now, I worked at Bank of America when the ATM system crashed. I was one of those assigned to analyze why. In any system that services orders, there are queues. In the physical...
How the nation's biggest banks are ripping off American cities with the same predatory deals that brought down Greece

I was in that region (in Tbilisi) from 2000 to 2005. He weaves a conspiracy originating at RAND with factlets that support his radical-left conspiracy views. There are a lot of declarations in that...
The total size of the precious metals market is just not that big and the same goes for the supply. That is one basic reason we went off the gold standard - our money supply needs were just too big....
Interesting. Nice try Vladimir. :-)
I think I've posted here about that little Georgia war. I ran an office in Tbilisi for 5 years up until 2005. Saw the transition to Saakishvili. I'll quickly...

Conquering Afghanistan- What The West Can Learn From India

My personal view on PTSD (which includes having symptoms for years) is that it is an adaptation. Consider what the result is:
Ehanced startle reflex and instant capacity for violence (i.e. rapid...
Backtracking to the Engdahl piece, I agree in substance with some of his economic material, however, his take on the "color revolutions" is false. Even more than military campaigns, intelligence...
Napoleon said it, "Corruption has limits. Stupidity has none."
We are doing the best job we can to overreach and destroy our nation in the process. Because we have this idea in our heads that we...
... Musharraf is the inheritor of the power base built by Zia, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_Zia-ul-Haq) who used the Islamists and catered to them to gain and keep power and developed the...
Seems to me the best economic warfare against us is using ourselves as the instrumentality. Which is, I think a nice to have as far as the Kremlin boyz are thinking. I don't think there's much Iran...
Looked at them. Careful about assumptions regarding responses. I developed the virtual work immersion system design which is still, today, ahead of its time. (BTW - UVC was a distribution outfit, not...
Did he ever talk to Colonel Dave Hughes about No Gun Ri? Dave is a Korea vet who has something to say and agrees with Bateman.
The underlying question is, "What does a VNSA (violent non-state actor) require in order to be as capable as the state?" A corollary is, "What does it mean to be as capable as the state?" I'd say...
I was a bit of a leader in VR once, have a videotape "Fundamentals of Virtual Reality" sold to over 4000 universities around the world through UVC (now defunct.) Worked on image processing real time...
Stan, he's talking about training of analysts for intelligence work. You appear to be talking about training of regular soldiers for combat. Perhaps if you were discussing the same topic it might...
You think that's what gave rise to the Sunni-Shia split? Check again. http://islamfortoday.com/shia.htm
I'll spare you quoting chapter and verse on the form of government being specified as one...
A total of some 3,000 or so over hundreds of years. Compare that to a single one of many under the various Muslim empires which killed all men between 15 and 45? Last one was in Europe in Belgrade...
No. There is too much difference between the parts - New Testament and Old. It's there with complete consistency in Koran, Sharia and Hadith. An entire chapter devoted to how to divide the booty of...
He's to the point, and most of it rings true to me, although I have not seen the inner bureau side enough to be able to say one way or another. It fits the analysis of Soviet deficiencies well. I...
Sorry to be opaque there, or appear a bit dense. My intent was to signal how one can network by just getting out in the field and doing it. The context was to support what I was saying to JeffC about...
My intentions are to have conversations with intelligent people and perhaps help some to be more effective. In my current incarnation I am in graduate school in microbiology. You may or may not be...
