Do you recall when Angela Merkel’s emails were the subject of hacking by the NSA? And she was all pushed out of shape because she THOUGHT Germany was an ally of the United States. And to show just how close the United States was to that concept when Germany asked the U.S. to sign an agreement to stop this spy activity the U.S. had the audacity to say ……… NO!

That was back in 2013 and in addition it was discovered that according to the British newspaper The Guardian the NSA was able to monitor 35 world leaders’ communications in 2006. A memo said the NSA encouraged senior officials at the White House, Pentagon and other agencies to share their contacts so the spy agency could add foreign leaders’ phone numbers to its surveillance systems.

Now jump to last weeks email hack of Obummer’s emails. And all the hype created BECAUSE IT WAS THE RUSSIANS! And they aren’t an ally. So not being an ally of the United States would put you in the position of NOT TRUSTING the United States. And being an ally of the United States puts you in a position of NOT TRUSTING the United States.

Tubularsock see the same old pattern being played out …….. you can NOT TRUST the United States. Really, Tubularsock knows it’s old news.

 

However according to the U.S. Government’s new military doctrine created by the US Army, Win in the Complex World 2020-2040  provides the basic concept that is based on ever-changing variables. “The enemy is unknown, the geography is unknown and the coalitions are unknown” states the document. So as for allies in the course of the 21st century “. . . each friend can become the enemy. Friends and enemies can be changed arbitrarily“.

Now that is sure comforting but it goes back to Tubularsock’s premise, “you can NOT TRUST the United States”. Pretty simple if you ask Tubularsock.

And in this “new?” view presented by the U.S. Army, the current practice is clear in the current training mission of the 173rd Airborne Brigade in the Ukraine. This entire Ukraine take over by the United States overthrowing an elected government will not be (nor has it ever been) an isolated incident , but rather part of a comprehensive, new strategy. Or same as it ever was!

In this new document several principles are to be considered for future military successes, “. . .  the US military has to be active in social media and controlling the public display of conflicts.”

The entire US approach will be a global presence with troops  in the entire world before a possible outbreak of a conflict. In addition storing weapons in hiding and on bases to respond in time of war as quickly as possible.

This entire current “Atlantic Resolve” strategy of  US soldiers and war materials in Eastern Europe is part of this new military program.

So, just how is 2020-2040 any different in military policy than 1940-2015? Sounds like an instant replay except we have let our “allies” know that “Friends and enemies can be changed arbitrarily”! So, Tubularsock figures that at least some honesty is better than none!

Which brings up a basic axiom, ONLY AN UNHAPPY PEOPLE SUPPORT WAR. 

Think on that.
