      <![CDATA[<p>While there is still some controversy regarding the term '4th Gen Warfare" I've got a pretty good briefing on the subject from the man who has been briefing it around lately, recently to II MEF (Marine Expeditionary Force).  I've copied over the slides as jpgs, so you can see the brief as the Marines saw it (with the author's permission, please credit LTC (R) Wilcox should you use these for any purpose yourselves).  The notes that go with the slides are probably more important than the slides, but I haven't figured out how to export those from Powerpoint without creating a huge file on my server...  so - if you go over and scan through  the brief and decide you would like the whole thing, drop me an email and I will forward you a copy of the complete brief (1.7 megs, zipped, so have a care what email address you want it sent to!).</p>

<p>Shoot, the recommended reading list is worth the visit.</p>

        <![CDATA[This is whay what SOA is doing and 'winning the hearts and minds' is so important.

I've been flamed on other blogs for saying how important I think it is that our soldiers are repairing schools and playing soccer with the kids and handing out candy and all.

But we will never win the WoT as long as the sort of thing in your pic is going on. We can't kill <i>everyone</i> over there. We have to show these people there's a better way. 

As long as kids like that are being brought up in that environment we'll be fighting terrorism. If that stuff doesn't stop my grandkids will still be under risk 50 years from now. To me - at the risk of coming very near to that dreaded 'root-cause' phrase - its a matter of thinking through what's really going on over there. This has to stop.]]>
