    Damm^^^ if you do and damm** if you don't. In Gaza they blame it all on Israel when in fact there are 3 parties in a war going back at least a century. You have HAMAS on the Muslim side, Israel on the Jewish side and the people in Gaza caught in the middle. It is the modern fifth generation warfare, We supply aide to Israel, they bomb Gaza based HAMAS, and it turns the response into a defeat for Israel no matter what the outcome by using the internet and propaganda.

    This a long and detailed statement about what fifth generation warfare is, where it came from, and some of the battles that have been fought. You don't have to read it, but if you don't you well be part of the war and a tool of those who are fighting it. It is not a simple subject and it in fact may be part of the tools used in this new war. I know that reading on this war has changed my attitude towards all media, and I no longer trust any of it.

    An Introduction to Fifth Generation Warfare

    While the gentleman may be totally correct on both Israel and the Ukraine, he is just as much a factor in the war of words as the bombing in Gaza is. As Stalin has supposed to have said It isn't the ballots, its who counts the ballots in politics. In this new war it isn't who drops the bombs or overthrows the government, it is who wins in the media war. You may look at the video and everything he states is correct. It however is but one barrage in the battle between the neocoms and Russia and the larger war being waged.

    I'm sure you're right about all of that. I am just sick of having tax dollars forcibly extracted from me to pay for it and having it done in my name and to pay the salary of that psycho four-star general Donahue who spoke of invading Russia. Perhaps he should change his name to Jack D. Ripper. And I wonder how much dirt Mossad has on Miss Lindsey Graham for him to be Israel's biggest bitch?

    I threw up my hands, threw in the towel and totally gave up on the entire mess of Palestine/Gaza on 7 October. Honestly, I don't care what happens there anymore. HOWEVER, I do not believe the Gaza people are innocent in this conflict - no way. I think they have been totally brainwashed and have supported Hamas in the long-term. Like @Fairlaneford I simply do not want my tax dollars going there to support either side in any manner anymore - period. Not for humanitarian aid or weapons or anything. I'm done and any good will I use to have is done. If Israel wants weapons from us then they can pay for them, no loans, no credit and definitely no freebies. What the hell, if we don't sell them then some other country will... I wish we would simply step back from the entire thing.

    As far as 5th Wave Warfare, we have a front row seat with the Ukraine-Russia war. It's everywhere. Also, thinking about it, isn't this exactly what the Leftists used with their Woke and DEI agenda to make it sound like the fair and correct way forward. Personally, I don't put as much faith in 'Information and Perception' warfare (5th wave) as stated here and other places as a bullet fired in anger definitely changes one's perception, even reverse it completely, in less than a heartbeat. Reality bites...

    EDIT: Destroying Iran's nuclear intentions was different but this Palestine thing has to be handled between Israel and the Palestinians and if they want to exterminate each other so be it because we have tried decades to help them find a compromise and all we have done is get farther and farther dragged into the mess. No. I am finished with it.

    Warfare is on our computers, in our face 24/7, MSNBC, FOX, ONN, CNN, etc.
    You have money, property and are free, They are trying to get it.

    Who is they? Not you. Big corporations, Multi Nationals, governments, globalists.

    Always has been, always will be. And you are being screwed, left, right and straight up the poopchute. No lube.

    If it came down to it, if there were another world war, if it didn't go nuclear, we'd probably win.
    Right now we don't have an external enemy, we are just fighting within. But, given an external threat and the draft ... I'm betting that rainbow color hair will make a great distraction on the front lines (also cannon fodder).
    There is a great war machine that is sitting fallow that may come alive if the there was a serious need.
