“Somewhere a True Believer is training to kill you. He is training with minimum food or water, in austere conditions, day and night. The only thing clean on him is his weapon.

State Sponsored Cyber-Terrorism is Here to Stay
I have been talking alot about 4th Generation Warfare on this blog, in particular, the use of State-Sponsored Cyber Warfare that is used against an enemies infra-structure to disable it.

21st Century Guerilla Terrorism
At NO other time in history has there been a more obvious and clarified threat to the civilian operator by terrorism than today.

“Setting So High a Price for Our Blood…”
I am currently reading Steven Pressfield’s novel The Lions Gate, a fictional “hybrid history” of Israel’s Six Day War fought in 1967. The book is outstanding so far and I highly recommend it, as I do any of Pressfield’s stuff, as it is all top-notch. The other day, I came across a statement that I…

Learning from Terrorist Tactics: Spotting Suicide Bombers
When I decided on this subject, I initially was prepared to do a ton of research and fact checking, but then it hit me one day: I really have to look no further than Israel and their Counter-Terrorism Networks to get the “scoop” on this subject! After all, they have been dealing with and neutralizing…
The “Written in Blood” Rule Proves Correct Once Again…..
I remember during my tenure working for Uncle Sam in the Military that it was said, quite frequently and openly, that workplace “SAFETY PROCEDURES AND GUIDELINES WERE WRITTEN IN BLOOD” mostly because of inept Government bureaucracy. As a young whippersnapper, I did not quite understand what that meant, until I saw, first hand a man get electrocuted due…
What the CO can Learn from the Eric Frien Manhunt
