Training soldiers to notFight
It is a lot harder than many people think. We see other countries get into trouble all the time and we have been in a lot of trouble ourselves and it is something we have been doing almost from the beginning of it's invention back in 1948. notFighting is much more difficult than fighting, not in it's enactment, but in achieving the end. Fighting is straightforward, we fight, smack smack, you're dead, I am grinning like some insane jackal, covered in blood and gore. Now we get into a notFighting fight, peacing, and all of a sudden, I have lost, you are still dead, but I have lost because we were notFighting. Once you have established that notFighting is an objective, aggressive dominance is a losing strategy.
The US/UK invasion of Iraq is a excellent example of fighting. The absence of the worlds nonFighters in Iraq appears to be a problem that will not be solved simply. |
