Recruiting for SWC members because....

[Kiwigrunt]

Here I had expected to find here a place where Coalition partners could have posted interesting stuff about their respective approaches and experiences in small wars.

Here is a place where Coalition Partners can post interesting stuff about their perspectives and experiences. Bring it on.

Being Dutch, I could have posted on the Dutch 3 –D approach (the comprehensive approach of Defense, Diplomacy and Development) and its results in Uruzgan province….

Please do.

What I found instead is a place where coalition partners are being bashed plus unfavorable, unflattering and IMO uninformed comparisons with the American approach. This I find quite disappointing and not a real encouragement for posting.

It is not my perception and experience that coalition partners and other ‘outsiders’ are being bashed by a predominantly (and logically so) American membership in a way that is out of proportion to the criticism that they portray to their own side and actions (sure, amidst a lot of chest-beating). If it is your perception, and you find it disappointing, than perhaps that should be a real encouragement for posting. Please inform us.
