The relevance of Sun Tzu

The message of the book is clear: war is won not through strength but through skillful manipulation - a victory of the writing brush and brains over sword and strength. This vision of war is related to another major point of the book, or at least can be interpreted in this way: war is not just the function of the military but is the exercise of the entire societal body. And it is here that the US military behemoth fails: America’s socio-economic fabric as a whole is not designed to win the current wars, regardless of what seems to be enormous and constantly increasing investments in the country’s military machine.

Russian War Criminal, General Baranov, Hero of Russia
July 27th 2006 the European Court will give the verdict in case Bazorkina vs Russia. Bazorkina's son "disappeared" in the hands of Russian soldiers. The interestring thing is that CNN got on film sequence, where general Baranov gave order to kill the wounded soldier, Bazorkina's son. Baranov later was appointed "Hero of Russia" and is now the highest commander of all Russian troups in North Caucasus. This film shows that Baranov is a war criminal, a simple killer. His promotion and high rank in the Russian army shows a dark side of Putin's Russia.

Delarey - Boer War
This is for the pride of the Afrikaaner Nation. General De la Rey was a Boer General in South Africa who led his brave boers in battle against the invading British Empire. The odds were staggering 80 000 boers to 350 000 british Soldiers. The Boers held out to the bitter end. The British held thousands of Boer women and children in the first ever concentration camps. The British forced the Boers to surrender as they starved their women and children - only for the Boers to return to their torched farms without many of their murdered family. A Salute to the men who fought for my right to be here in South Africa today. "Ons Vir Jou Suid Africa"

CAUGHT: Pentagon pundits on TV news
CLICK HERE TO TAKE ACTION: http://FreePress.net Tell Congress: Investigate the Propaganda Pundits The New York Times has exposed a secret Pentagon campaign to infiltrate the media with pro-war propaganda. The scheme reaches all the way to the Bush White House, where top officials recruited dozens of "military analysts" to spread favorable views of the war via the news. Many of these propaganda pundits didn't reveal that they were working from Pentagon scripts or lobbying for companies seeking to cash in on major military contracts. This is a violation of every conceivable standard of journalism -- and possibly of federal law. Send a letter to Congress and demand better media: http://FreePress.net

Bush At War With Environment - Richard Nixon's EPA Head
Bush has declared war on the environment - says Richard Nixon's former head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Russel Train. "We're at war in Iraq. They tell us we're at war against terrorism. I'd say that George W. Bush has declared war on the environment. And I think that people ought to stand up and be counted in opposition to that. The first National Park, Yellowstone, was created in 1872. Now that was a Republican year, right after the Civil War. General Grant, then the president, was the person you have to give credit to for Yellowstone. You can go back to Teddy Roosevelt and say he Roosevelt was a great conservationist. He created our National Forest and our national wildlife refuges and he took a strong interest in conservation. You get to Richard Nixon and you get a...

Dispatch: The General
UPDATE: Cecil just got married to the Beeyootiful lady in this video, Lynsey. He now has one year on base at Pendleton, after which he will most likely ship to Afghanistan. Thank you so much for all of your wonderful comments and well wishes. Anywho. It just kind of dawned on me in a really big way this week that my brother is a Marine. Yeah, I know... you'd think I'd have figured this out when i watched him graduate from Boot Camp. Whatever. So, between bouts of weeping I created a video that explains my views on my brother's role as a Marine, my loathing of war, my love of my brother and family, and generally coping with it all. With a dash of personal opinion. I don't believe that we were created to be fighters. As in a great sermon from Don Finley of Life Church (paraphrased), "If...
