    Default Swedish Meatballs Confidential

    Swedish Meatballs Confidential - I only read it for the articles .

    "Best I.O.-Related Blog Ever"
    [...with significant caveats, of course.]
    -Michael Tanji (a darn fine sport! -M1)

    "I'm reaching out to Swedish Meatballs. Who are you? Inquiring, and confidential, minds want to know."
    -Mountain Runner

    "We are not quite sure what to think of the rather interesting but not entirely worksafe blog. On the one hand, we find some of the pieces quite excellent but we dislike attempts to play insider baseball with Beltway politics (especially writ large.) We find such discussions border too often on conspiracy theory. But when they focus on information operations and military matters, they prove worth reading. (We also rather like the manner in which they characterized our link - "Kent's Something of Import".... clearly an artifact of translation software, but it carries with it a flavour of the Victorian...)"
    -Imperatating Kent(s?)

    "He's pretty smart. Plus, his, um, artwork, evades the filter on my DoD computer...
    Nice"
    -A testy guy named Isaac (testy is good, too)

    "Bizarre site, no? I don't know who he/she is, but I'm afraid to link to him/her for risk of being dragged in by the lewd patrol."
    - Armchair Generalist

    "Swedish Meatballs Confidential focuses on unwrapping programs of propaganda, PSYOPS and "perception management" from across the spectrum of media outlets. It's saucy, too. This group knows what the #### is going on. Read it, and you will too."
    -Anything They Say

    "Swedish Meatballs has learned how to dress up a web page about information operations, diplomacy, foreign affairs and related matters to make them more understandable."
    -Main & Central

    "Very interesting IO/PSOPS focused milblog.
    Eye catching visuals to boot, though maybe not `Work Safe´"
    -Small Wars Journal council member Zen Pundit

    "...it's a hoot"
    [...criminally recontextualized. -M1]
    -Pundita

    Guess that depends on where you work .... Some interesting graphics, and equally interesting articles, but a bit heavy on the conspiracy theory stuff. If we were really able to successfully run operations as complex as the conspiracy theorists believe, we wouldn't have as many problems as we do now.

    Default A new approach to learning COIN doctrine?

    Should have used the same visual approach to 3-24...might actually get a few more Soldiers to read it.
