*"Pachacutec" is a New York Mets fan, a businessperson, a progressive writer and a collector of classic jazz recordings who can usually be found online at firedoglake.com.

And his military expertise, that would be what?

But he has no trouble prescribing for the US and Israel.

"...using a powerful state military against an entrenched and locally popular guerilla force is the best way to destroy said military. Having a powerful military is, in this context, a liability, because having it tempts you to use it, thereby furthering the ends of your guerilla or terrorist attackers. Al Qaeda and Hezbollah know this. It's about time we, and Israel, figured this out."

Yes!
