The Counterrevolution in Military Affairs:...Ralph Peters What a rant! I like Peters, and agree with most of the time. But this article jumps around so much it is almost incoherent. Yes, we have a major problem with a media who wants to act as a scorekeeper, and dramatize the head-choppers. Yes, the faith of the suicide bombers is a problem, but the answer is to secularize their society though globalization, not to throw up our hands. Yes, we are buying the wrong weapons, but the military has a responsibilty to prepare against possible threats, not just the most likely ones. So they have to be ready for China to go "wog" on us and act irrationally. Ralph needs to split that article into three articles, complete his points, and quit the hand-wringing.
