Global Guerillas
I've added Global Guerillas to the blogroll. The latest two entries are 'Fragmentation in India' and 'U.S. Border Collapse'. Not happy reading. The authors thesis is that the nation-state is increasingly vulnerable to systems disruption by tech-savvy guerilla fighters. For instance, he's written about the Nigerians who are shutting down that countrys oil revenue by constantly attacking the pipelines. The pipelines stretch over a large area, are easy to hit, and the cost to the central government is enormous and painful. Low cost, large 'benefit' strikes are easier than ever for guerillas everywhere. Recent entries regarding Iraq are must reads and very depressing. You need to know this stuff, so take your medicine - have a look at GG.

This is bullpucky. It's like comparing the ELF to Osama. The ELF does a few millions of dollars of damage every year. The "REBELS" or whatever we call them MIGHT do a billion in damages to a country's economy. Then there is Osama. Everything the US has done since then in the name of 9/11 will cost us trillions for many years to come.

Wow. This blog software is really goofy. It is just freaking goofy.
I keep expecting my lovely lady to say, "Sorry Dear, I'm Blogspotting".
Say what?

I don't get the objection. Should we only talk about Osama and nothing else? Don't some problems (like India breaking apart) have a potential to mushroom? No pun intended. Are all leftoids tunnel-visioned monomaniacs? Gee, if only we could bring the evil Bush creature into the frame on every single issue maybe the leftards would broaden their vision. Yeah, that's the ticket. Bush is trying to break apart India and blow up Nigerian piplines to enrich his buddies, er, CRONIES at Big Oil Inc. and Enronburton. Okay, are the topics interesting NOW? And if they're not intersting to you, why on earth do you object to other people finding them so? Idiot!
