This may sound totally Lunar but I am obviously a better General than every $ star General in the Central Army Group put together, even though I have never even been to an officer advanced course let alone some advanced Command and Staff Collage or what ever it is that ISGTs go to. These types of courses are just for the wrong type of people, unlucky people.
Let me send you all a loud and clear symbolic message. I was playing cards tonight, Sequence to be precise,
and I one each of the last 2 games in only 9 moves each game. Yes you heard me 2 rows of 5 in only 9 moves. Now if that were not enough in the first game the rows made the letter V and in the second game the rows made the letter X. Read Napolean pal! His wisdom about Generals might set you free. He knew them for what they are.
Now Mr. Lind’s critque is modest attack on on on nothing. The fact of the matter is that the US can not fight Counter Insurgency worth a shit because it is unworthy of any county born through revolution to be fighting a counter insurgency in the first place. Counterinsurgency is the strategy of Monarchs and Empires.
Furthermore it is obvious that our esteemed Generals have not learned anything from Algeria.
Algeria provides a strategy that is appropriate for a Republic. If such a strategy should actually ever be used by a Republic is another question. The strategy is insurgency. Yes you maroons you heard me right, insurgency, you out insurgency the insurgents. If you dip wads were not so wrapped up in your Bibles and actually new something about Islamic history you would know that Muslims spend more time fighting themselves than anyone else. You would know that the cheapest way to kill a Muslim is to get another Muslim to do it for you.
You better handle this powerful information with great care. First of all it is better to convert your enemies to allies than it is to kill them. Second the vast majority of Muslims are not your real enemies, those that are, are not the ones closest to your positions. Do you know what I am hinting at here. I am hinting at a painful truth. I suffer from hemorrhoids.

Despite your sinisium, you are for the most part correct. We call it in Speical Forces to “Out Guerilla the Guerilla” We have known this for decades, but we fall under Generals who keep fighting the World Wars.

De Liber,
Words have different meanings to different people. When you said that “we fall under Generals who keep fighting the world wars.” Do you mean that you are under the command of Generals, or that you are falling down dead because of the generals, or that you can not stand up because you are laughing to hard to stand up when ever you see a General get near a microphone?
