Afghanistan's Guerrilla War
Afghanistan's Guerrilla War
09/11/2004 07:10 AMAT.
Back to Afghanistan. Islamic guerrillas are gearing up an
insurgency to put the US into a two front war. By the end of
Bush's next administration, we should be up to ears in two hot
guerrilla wars. Remember, this is fourth generation
warfare. It turns strength into weakness.
Our amazing military, when bogged down in hot guerrilla wars
transforms itself into an extremely expensive, legitimacy depleting
liability. For example, we have set up a situation where we
can't lose either Afghanistan or Iraq. Two hot guerrilla wars
would put all of the military assets we have into those
theaters. The additional cost would run well in excess of $400 b
a year. Casualties and confusion would rise as attention is
divided between the theaters. This situation would then make it
possible to strike at other areas (Saudi Arabia
inparticular) with impunity. Events would be staged to bait
the US into expanding new areas of operations. The key here is
to inflate the bubble of US power to the point it become vulnerable to
catastrophic failure. Add global guerrilla systemic disruption
to the mix and we are in for a disaster.
Note: This effort is led by mens such as Mansoor:
Mansoor is the son of Nasrullah Mansoor, one of the most respected
Afghan guerrilla leaders from the time of the Soviet occupation of
Afghanistan in the 1980s, who terrorized Soviet troops around Gardez.
Saifullah Mansoor's reputation as a chip off the old block was
cemented when in April 2002 he led a raid in which 18 US soldiers were
killed in a guerrilla attack at Shahi Kot in the Zarmat area.

quality, not the time it takes to get a patent, the hallmark of its
work - judge

about how much he's done to reform the patent system. Yet, every day
we still seem to see ridiculous patents. If that's what we call
reform these days, I think we need something different.
