Third Generation war, also known as maneuver warfare, was developed by the German
Army in World War I. By 1918, Blitzkrieg was conceptually complete, lacking only the
tanks necessary for operational mobility. The Prussian / German roots of Third
Generation war go back earlier, to the Scharnhorst reforms that followed Prussia's defeat
by Napoleon. One of those reforms changed what was required of a Prussian officer;
instead of being responsible for obeying orders, he became responsible for getting the
result the situation required regardless of orders (in 19th century war games, it was
common for junior Prussian officers to be given problems that could only be solved by
disobeying orders). This in turn created a military culture that was focused outward, on
the enemy, the situation and the result the situation demanded instead of inward on
rules, orders and processes. In effect, Prussia had broken with the First Generation
culture of order.
The new Third Generation tactics developed by the Germans in World War I were the
first non-linear tactics. On the defense, the objective became sucking the enemy in, then
cutting him off, rather than holding a line. On the offensive, the attack flowed like
water through the enemy's defenses, always seeking the weakest point to penetrate, then
rolling him up from his own rear forward. Operationally as well as tactically the goal
was usually encirclement. Speed replaced firepower as the most important tool, and
dislocation, mental as well as physical, was more important than attrition. Culturally,
not only was the German Army outward-focused, it prized initiative over obedience and
it depended on self-discipline rather than imposed discipline. This was George Patton in
World War II, the reasons for his success and for his dislike by those in higher command
positions and civilian government.
Much of the American military reform movement of the 1970s, 80s and early 90s was an
attempt to move the American armed forces from the Second to the Third Generation.
While the Marine Corps formally adopted maneuver warfare as doctrine in the 1990s,
most of what the Marine Corps does remains Second Generation. The other American
services remain almost wholly Second Generation, to the frustration of many junior
officers.
4th Generation war is the greatest change since the Peace of Westphalia, because it
marks the end of the state's monopoly on war. Once again, as before 1648, many
different entities, not states, are fighting war. They use many different means, including
“terrorism” and immigration, not just formal armies. Differences between cultures, not
just states, become paramount, and one culture will not fight the way another fights. All
over the world, state military organizations are fighting non-state opponents, and almost
always, the state is losing. State military organizations were designed to fight other state
military organized like themselves, and against non-state enemies most of their
equipment, tactics and training are useless or counterproductive.
I would classify this as a combination of both clandestine insurgency and guerrilla warfare. It
is clearly and lucidly described by Trinquier in “Modern Warfare”. ( 26) It is also the exact way in which counter insurgency must function when needed to overcome insurgent revolution.
Of course there have been 4th Generation insurgencies (and counter insurgencies) for
thousands of years, as well as the use of 4 th Generation Warfare tactics and strategies by
state military organizations against other state military. {Sun Tzu’s The Art of War, (9,
10)} The American War for Independence began as a counter insurgency of largely non-
state actors and used militia guerrilla tactics throughout the war even after the
development of the Continental Line. (35, 36)
The most remarkable and effective field commander of the American forces was Daniel
Morgan, whose ability to integrate militia and regulars at the battle of Cowpens set up
Cornwallis’ ultimate defeat at Yorktown. (37)
This was Daniel Morgan. (37). A veteran of the French and Indian War, Morgan
commanded one of Virginia’s two rifle companies sent to support the Siege of Boston in
late June 1775. Morgan had served as an officer in the Virginia Colonial Militia since
the French and Indian War. He recruited 96 men in 10 days and assembled them at
Winchester on 14 July. He then marched them 600 miles to Boston in only 21 days,
arriving on Aug. 6, 1775. Known as Morgan’s Riflemen, they soon discouraged British
raids out of Boston with the accuracy of their long-range fire, something the British
could not match. He also initiated tactics which first targeted the British formation’s
Indian guides, then their officers, then their NCOs. The British found this to be
“barbaric.”
In effective counter insurgency and guerrilla war functions the leadership both militarily and politically should be targeted and eliminated by destroying their plans as did David’s Spies to Absalom in that revolution or by their execution or assassination.
Morgan was an impressive field commander, big in size yet poorly educated, he enjoyed
drinking and gambling but his troops never forgot who was in command. Morgan had
served as a civilian teamster during the French and Indian War. After returning from the
advance on Fort Duquesne by General Braddock's command, he was punished with 499
lashes (a usually fatal sentence) for punching his superior officer. Morgan, not
surprisingly, hated the British army. He later served as a rifleman in the Provincial
forces assigned to protect the western border settlements from French-backed Indian
raids, and in 1774 he served in Dunmore's War, taking part in raids on Shawnee villages
in the Ohio Country.
During the Saratoga campaign, Morgan’s riflemen played a key role at the preliminary
battles of Freeman’s Farm and later at Bemis Heights, where at his order the British
General Fraser was mortally wounded by rifleman Tim Murphy. This was the single
most important rifle shot of the war, since the loss of Fraser caused the British attack to
collapse and the subsequent surrender of the entire British force persuaded the French to
enter the war.
After Cowpens, Morgan went home on sick leave, but he had certainly paid the British
back for those 499 lashes. There were many American officers and men who
had acquired their military experience in the French and Indian War. And like Morgan,
many of them had also acquired an acute understanding of what the British army could
and could not do in the terrain of North America. This formation of young soldiers in
the crucible of war is a constant found throughout history. The primary lessons were
moral ones, not military. And morale is critical in 4th Generation Warfare.
If the intention is to preserve this nation Americans must learn the lessons of clandestine, counter insurgency and guerrilla warfare and be WILLING and able to apply them when needed to off set the insurgency which is now occurring in the civilian, military, law enforcement, judicial and political arena’s in the United States of America.
As Hammes describes, (38) “From 1987 to 1990, I got a small taste of the practical
aspects of insurgency. I spent those years training insurgents in various locations of the
world. This was the tail end of the Cold War and the United States still had vested
interests in the outcome of a number of insurgencies. The most intriguing part of the
tour was the opportunity to talk to these men. I was particularly impressed with two
aspects of the men I met. First was their utter determination to continue the struggle
despite the odds. They were not deterred by fear of death. In each case, they were
engaged in a struggle with a government force that possessed many times their military
power. In each case, they knew the odds and were not deterred. They believed in their
cause and were sure that belief was powerful enough to defeat the government. The
idea they fought for was central to their resistance. In fact, they were counting on
political power generated by that idea to neutralize the overwhelming military power of
the government. As I worked with these men, I realized this fact should be obvious to
Americans. An idea kept our American War for Independence alive during seven long
years of war. (It should also be noted that for most of the key leaders of our War for
Independence, the struggle began a decade earlier with the Stamp Act crisis.)”
The second outstanding trait was the remarkable ingenuity they displayed for overcoming
problems. Whether the problems were tactical, logistical, doctrinal, or political, they
often attacked them from a direction that simply would not occur to a Western trained
soldier. I found insurgents are not impressed with conventional power. They respect it
but seek ways around it, and have consistently succeeded in finding those ways . They
often used tactics and techniques that were outside the training and experience of the
government forces. Despite years of war, they consistently surprised government forces
with their ingenuity and determination. Insurgents are living proof of why man is at the
top of the food chain. We are the most creative, treacherous, loyal, aggressive, and
determined life form to yet evolve. Any nation (or organization) that assumes it is
inherently superior to another is setting itself up for disaster. I would add to this last
sentence that the same goes for political elites, only more so. This is perfectly
understood by 4th Generation Warfare fighters.
Michael Collins, (39) perhaps the 20th Century’s most accomplished virtuoso in 4th
Generation Warfare, fought in the disastrous 1916 Easter Rising, and afterward was being
paraded with other prisoners through the streets of Dublin on their way to prison. As
the column passed the ruins of Liberty Hall, a young woman caught up with her cousin
(Collins) and called out to him. “What will you do now?” “Do?” asked Collins,
“Do? Sure I’ll get ready for the next round of course. I’ve got some of the names
taken down already. The best of men.” His cousin was flabbergasted. “But, What?
How are you going to train them?” she called out. Collins replied, “Sure won’t His
Majesty’s Government train them for me?” Collins’ best field commander in West Cork,
Tom Barry, a British Army veteran of the Iraq theater during World War I, is reflected in
“Guerrilla Days in Ireland”. (40)
This is something that the governments who seek to fight 4th Generation Warfare don’t
understand. The 4th Generation Warfare warrior thinks in terms of decades, not months
or years. He or she will fight until victory or death. The long wars in Vietnam, Iraq
and Afghanistan, then, can also be seen as universities for American armed citizens in
4th Generation Warfare tactics and techniques.
Who Invented 4th Generation Warfare? Col. Hammes (38) says “This new form of war
did not arrive on the scene as a fully developed instrument but has evolved over decades
and continues to evolve at widely scattered locations. We are not in the middle of a
revolution in military affairs but rather an evolution.” Different authors assign different
origins to 4th Generation Warfare. Hammes traces it to Mao Tse-Tung, yet we know
that much of Mao’s theory was based upon the ancient Sun Tzu. Hammes then discusses
the “Vietnamese modification” and the “Sandinista refinement.” In each of these latter
cases the insurgents were fighting for control of the mindset of the United States
Congress through popular opinion within our country. But of course this is precisely
how the Founders of our own country defeated the British; the defeat at Yorktown
caused Lord North’s government to collapse and the new government that replaced it
came in with a promise to end the North American war, which it promptly did. “Street
Without Joy” by Bernard B. Fall, (41) suggests that the principal theorist of 4th
Generation Warfare on the communist side in Vietnam was neither Ho Chi Minh nor Vo
Nguyen Giap but Truong-Chinh.
The reality of fact is that 4th generation war or Clandestine, Counter Insurgent, Guerrilla war
has been going on throughout all of history. A detailed analysis of 2 nd Samuel chapters 15-17 and more will provide suitable examples of how the insurgency of Absalom, King David’s Son, used this very process in fomenting revolution against his father. Also how King David used clandestine operations to foil plans for his destruction by the advisers of Absalom during the revolution. These events occurred in history some 3000 years ago and are simply being rediscovered today. So it is appropriate to understand as Solomon, David’s Son said, “Nothing is NEW under the sun”.
Michael Collins (39) added his own improvisation to 4th generation war which proved
decisive when he evolved a new concept of guerrilla warfare that in time would be
copied by guerrilla leaders all over the globe from Mao to Shamir. The Collins
philosophy was based not on the capture of enemy bricks and mortar, but of its
information. Traditionally Dublin Castle, the seat of British administration in Ireland,
had used a network of spies and informers to infiltrate and then snuff out movements
directed at securing Irish independence. Collins perfected a system of spying on these
spies. Every important branch of the Castle system, whether it was banking, policing,
railways, shipping, the postal service, whatever, was infiltrated by his agents. These
were not highly trained, CIA-style operatives, but ordinary men and women, little people,
whom nobody had ever taken notice of before. Collins gave them a belief in themselves,
a courage they did not know they possessed, and they in return gave him a complete
picture of how their masters operated. For the first time in their history the Irish had a
team of assassins trained to eliminate informers.
Held back from making a full-scale use of their Army by the force of world opinion,
largely Irish-American opinion, the British tried to fight a ‘police war’, carried on by
hastily-formed forces of ex-servicemen and officers troubled by little discipline and less
conscience. The Black and Tans and the Auxiliaries wrote new chapters of horror in the
bloodstained story of the Anglo-Irish relationship. In the reprisals for these activities
Collins and his colleagues included the burning of homes and creameries, random murder
and the widespread use of torture. In addition to his campaign of warfare, he ran a
national loan, which was banned by the British so that either its advertisement or sale
became illegal. Yet the loan was fully subscribed, and every subscriber got a receipt.
(39, 42) As brilliant as he was, Collins would later claim that he drew much of his own
inspiration from the lessons learned by the Boer commando Christiaan Rudolph de Wet.
It is safe to say that 4th Generation Warfare has been evolving over at least the past
couple of centuries, (actually and historically since the dawn of civilization surely even
before 1000 BC) not the decades Col. Hammes suggests (38), and certainly in terms of
timeline, the American War for Independence of 1775 can lay as good a claim as any to
being its inventors. This is an opinion that the current American Three Percent have no
problem adopting. However, a 4th Generation Civil War waged by men and women who
are loyal to the Founders’ concepts would not fight an unrestrained Al Qaeda campaign
but one specifically targeted to spare civilians and to target the decision makers. (26)
The next American civil war will either successfully break new ground in 4th Generation
Warfare tactics and techniques or it will descend into a welter of blood and massacre.
Governments generally have a tendency to do that when they’re losing. The 4th
Generation Warfare warriors who claim to represent the Founders’ Republic will have to
require of themselves far more discipline and intelligence, no Fort Sumters and no
Oklahoma City bombings.
“War amongst the people” (43, 51) is both a graphic description of modern warlike
situations, and also a conceptual framework. It reflects the hard fact that there will
generally be no secluded battlefield upon which armies engage, nor are there necessarily
armies, definitely not on all sides. To be clear, this is not asymmetric warfare, a phrase
I dislike invented to explain a situation in which conventional states were threatened by
unconventional powers but in which conventional military power in some formulation
would be capable of both deterring the threat and responding to it. This “War amongst
the people” is different, it is the reality in which the people in the streets, houses and
fields, all the people, anywhere, are the battlefield. Military engagements can take place
anywhere, in the presence of civilians, against civilians, in defense of civilians. Civilians
are the targets, objectives to be won, as much as they are an opposing force. ( 26)
Labeling wars as asymmetric is to me something of a euphemism to avoid acknowledging
that one’s opponent is not playing to my strengths and I am not winning.
The advocates of the disarmament of the American populace always begin by saying that
no group of citizenry can oppose the might of the federal government because the vast
array of weaponry including aircraft, artillery and even nuclear weapons that the federals
could bring to bear if they are opposed trumps any number of armed “insurrectionists”
with rifles. This ludicrous argument is not only contradicted by many examples
throughout history but begs the moral question of resistance to a predatory government
itself. If a government is so depraved as to use nuclear weapons against its own people
on its own soil, it will not long survive the condemnation of even the people who
otherwise support it. The same goes for artillery and air strikes, even so called
“surgical, decapitation operations.” Such weapons are, in 4th Generation Warfare,
merely expensive but useless, appendages, especially in an uncontrolled media
environment.
Unfortunately in our time in these United States a vast amount array of the media is no longer uncontrolled and independent but is in fact the source of the government’s and other player’s propaganda to subvert the true normal functions of this constitutional republic. Mr. Vanderboegh does address this a bit later and this may now be changing with the new administration in 2025.
The fact that collectivist familiars even suggest the nuclear boogeyman as a real threat by
the federal government merely marks them as moral pariahs, inciters of holocaust, and
tells you everything you need to know about such people. THEY are apparently the ones
who are willing to see millions of their own citizens dead in pursuit of gun control and a
government monopoly on violence. They are bloodthirsty people indeed. The utility,
practical or moral, of using even precision-guided munitions from artillery or aircraft in a
civil war upon one’s own people, in one’s own territory and athwart one’s own logistics
tail is also militarily problematic, especially in a media environment that includes the
Internet, even more especially in a country such as the United States which depends
upon it for so much of its own economic activity that it cannot be totally shut down.
First, such strikes are not entirely “precision-guided” as we have seen in Iraq and
Afghanistan, leading to “collateral damage” (a military euphemism for dead civilians)
and moral discredit. Remember such a civil war would be “amongst the people” in
General Smith’s term and seeking their loyalty. Thus any smart 4th Generation Warfare
operator is going to desire to eliminate the possibility of his side creating “collateral
damage” as much as possible. Notice I said “eliminate the possibility.” Only a fool or
a foreign government agent would try to advance his or her cause by committing an
Oklahoma City bombing with a day-care full of innocent kids in it. Remember, too, that
4th Generation Warfare warfare is designed to change the minds of the “war making
elite” in their opponent’s capitol. (26) Oklahoma City type bombings merely strengthen
their hand, not discredit it. (Recall that after he was re-elected in 1996, Bill Clinton told
reporters on Air Force One while traveling back to DC from Arkansas that “Oklahoma
City broke the spell.”)
Indeed, if you are looking for a weapon that is in fact “precision-guided” you need look
no further than a bolt-action rifle aimed at an identified target and wielded by someone
who knows what to do with it. This, in fact, defines the Three Percenters, who, being
limited to rifles, know them very well and compete with each other to win matches
somewhere in this country every weekend. Can this be why Senator Dianne Feinstein, a
long-time advocate of “turn ‘em in, Mr. and Mrs. America”, is so obsessed with
“sniper” rifles that can “puncture a limousine” or “take down an aircraft”? (13)
Second, such bad publicity might be endured if the civil war was quickly put to an end
by such tactics, but in 4th Generation Warfare this is not only uncertain, it is fantasy.
The final critical characteristic of 4th Generation Warfare is that its timelines,
organizations, and objectives are different from those of earlier generations. Of particular
importance is understanding that the timelines are very much longer. The United States
wants to fight short, well-defined wars. America went into Vietnam, Bosnia, Kosovo,
Afghanistan, and Iraq convinced she could “clean it up” quickly. In each war, our
leaders told the people America would be out in a year or so. For the United States, a
long war is five years.
Unfortunately, 4th Generation Warfare wars are LONG. The Chinese Communists fought
for twenty-eight years (1921-1949). The Vietnamese Communists fought for thirty years
(1945-1975). The Sandinistas fought for eighteen years (1961-1979). The Palestinians
have been resisting Israeli occupation for fifty years so far (1975-2025). The Chechens
have been fighting for more than ten years. Al-Qaeda has been fighting for their vision
of the world for more than forty years, since the founding of MAK in 1984. Numerous
other insurgencies have lasted decades. Accordingly, when getting involved in a 4th
Generation Warfare fight, organizations should be planning for a decades-long
commitment. From an American point of view, this may well be the single most
important characteristic of 4th Generation Warfare.
Next, we need to understand that 4th Generation Warfare organizations are different. (26)
Since Mao, 4th Generation Warfare organizations have focused on the movement’s long
term political viability rather than its short term tactical effectiveness. They do not see
themselves only as military organizations but as webs that generate the political power
central to 4th Generation Warfare. Thus, these organizations are unified by ideas. The
leadership and the organizations are networked to provide for survivability and continuity
when attacked. And the leadership recognizes that their most important function is to
sustain the idea and the organizations, not simply to win on the battlefield. (38, p221-2)
Much is made in Third-Generation Warfare of “getting inside the enemy’s OODA Loop”
(observe, orient, decide, and act function ‘loop’) in order to disrupt their
operations. Hammes points out that 4th Generation Warfare warriors don’t even try.
Finally, because of the long timelines, even the objectives are different. 4Th generation
warfare operations do not seek to service more targets faster to disrupt an enemy’s
OODA loop. They do not seek to destroy an opponent’s industrial base using the U.S.
Air Force’s concept of targeting key segments of an opponent’s society. Nor do they
seek to dislocate the enemy’s armed forces so that their decision cycle fails and the
enemy collapses. In fact, it is essential to 4th Generation Warfare strategists that the
opponent complete his strategic OODA loop, with the resulting decision that the war is
too costly to continue. For the advocates of the government monopoly of force, I would
like to point out that it is impossible to nuke an idea to extinction, especially on your
own soil.
Hammes (38, 26) concludes the chapter with: 4th-generation-warfare opponents focus on
the political aspects of the conflict. Because the ultimate objective is changing minds of
the enemy’s political leadership, the intermediate objectives are all milestones in shifting
the opinion of the various target audiences, the people. They know that time is on their
side, Westerners in general, and Americans in particular, are NOT known for their
patience. Americans are not a people who think in terms of struggles lasting decades.
4Th generation warfare enemies will not seek immediate objectives but a long term shift
in the political will of their enemies. They will accept numerous tactical and operational
setbacks in pursuit of the goal.
Colonel Harry Summers (14) noted that after the Vietnam war he told a North
Vietnamese colonel that the United States had never been beaten on the battlefield. The
North Vietnamese Colonel replied, “That is true. It is also irrelevant.” It is essential to
understand that 4th Generation Warfare opponents do not focus on swift battlefield
victories. They focus on the long term strategic approach. They focus on winning wars,
not battles.
In an American civil war between an ideas based Three Percent and a disarmament bent
federal government, who then would lose interest first? You cannot destroy an idea, not
even an obviously bad and Evil one, witness collectivism in all its forms. And Gen.
Hammes further points out “At the operational level in 4th generation warfare, all an
opponent has to move is ideas. He can do so through a wide variety of methods, from
email to snail mail to personal courier to messages embedded in classified
advertisements. He will try to submerge his communications in the noise of the
everyday activity that is an essential part of modern society. It will be extraordinarily
difficult to detect the operational level activities of a 4th Generation Warfare
opponent.” (38, p218.) Yes, it will. Especially in a civil war set in your own highly
developed country.
Potential 4th Generation Warfare Targeting Potential 4th Generation Warfare Targeting
Potential 4th Generation Warfare Civil War Targeting by the The Federal Government and
the Three Percenters would include:
• Military Targets (ordnance)
Any industrial plant, city, or other object, or any person, group of persons, or force marked as a target for destruction, damage, injury, or capture because of its direct or indirect use in the conduct or support of an enemy's military endeavor. In restricted usage, a military person, force, installation, or area marked as a
target because of its use, or potential use, in direct military operations. (43)
This definition is made obsolete by 4th Generation Warfare because “direct military
operations” are precisely what the 4th Generation Warfare insurgent seeks to avoid. His
target is the mind and the will of the people and political leadership of his enemy.
Considerations for Government in 4 Considerations for Government in 4th th Generation War Generation War
In addition to all of the above information, any federal government of the United States
which wishes to make war on its own people must overcome a few statistics unrelated to
the Three Percent or 4th Generation Warfare. The United States is made up of 3.79
MILLION square miles with somewhere around 380 million people living there. This
makes it the third largest nation in the world by both land area and population. There
are, not unimportantly, something on the order of 150 million firearm owners scattered
across this vast country and today over 300 million firearms privately owned along with
over 5 trillion rounds of ammunition. This is about 42% of the population who claim to
possess at least 1 gun. The U.S. has just 4% of the world’s population but has about
40% of civilian owned guns globally, according to a 2018 report from the Switzerland
based Small Arms Survey. (52) The Small Arms Survey estimates that American civilians
own 393 million guns, ranking the U.S. number one in firearms per capita. (45)
By comparison, Iraq is only 168,754 square miles in area (about the size of the state of
California) with only 31 million in population. Afghanistan is a bit bigger with 250,000
square miles in area and a population also of around 30 million. What kind of bloody-
minded fool would deliberately ignite an insurgency in a country, especially his own, 9
times larger than both of those combined and containing 5 times the population, many of
them armed and skilled at the use of those arms?
DECAPITATION:
“Don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to
kill 'em right back.” Captain Malcolm Reynolds, Firefly, Movie, 2002. After more than a
decade in Afghanistan and Iraq, the American policy elite believed it had a pretty good
bead on counterinsurgency in 4th Generation Warfare which rests principally on one
tactic: decapitation of terrorist leadership. Leadership decapitation (46) is a high-profile
tactic that involves the capture or killing of top insurgent leaders. It is frequently used
against guerrilla insurgencies. In the past two centuries, top insurgent leaders have been
killed or captured in just under 50 percent of counter insurgency campaigns. Yet we
know little about the nature of the relationship between leadership decapitation and
counterinsurgency effectiveness. Is capturing or killing insurgent leaders an effective
tactic? Or is it counterproductive, radicalizing insurgent movements, strengthening their
resolve, and making them more difficult to defeat? Or does it have no effect at all?
The general consensus is that leadership decapitation of guerrilla groups is ineffective.
These conclusions should give scholars pause because they are based on unsystematic
research designs, minimal empirical data, and incomparable units, usually terrorist
organizations or foreign leaders. (46)
Johnston himself believes decapitation is effective and though he criticizes the critics of
decapitation, his work shows an almost entire ignorance of 4th Generation Warfare which
presumably decapitation is supposed to defeat. How does a drone strike, for example,
kill an idea? A broader consideration with a little history is found at Michael Zenko’s
blog at the Council on Foreign Relations. (47) “The United States did not always carry
out targeted killings (or assassinations) of perceived national security threats. To the
contrary, the norm against targeted killings outside of battlefield settings was established
by President Gerald Ford in 1976, when he issued Executive Order 11905: ‘No employee
of the United States Government shall engage in, or conspire to engage in, political
assassination.’ Until the late 1990s, U.S. targeted killings were officially proscribed and
rarely seriously considered or authorized by senior officials.”
Daniel Byman, a professor in the Security Studies Program at Georgetown University and
the research director of the Saban Center at Brookings, (48) wrote: “Targeted killings
work, just not in all places and at all times. They can steadily attrite a terrorist group’s
leadership and, over time, leaving it with fewer impressive leaders and fewer skilled
personnel. Their biggest impact, however, is often in what the terrorist organization
does not do. Leaders must spend their time hiding and changing locations in order to
survive. They must curtail phone communications and avoid interacting with large
groups of followers, all of which make them far less able to guide the organization,
inspire followers, and enforce their will. Leaders often instigate witch-hunts in order to
go after supposed traitors who provided the lethal intelligence, further reducing the
group’s effectiveness.
Targeted killings, however, are a TACTIC, not a strategy. The inevitable civilian deaths
that occur can at times, but do not always, create significant numbers of additional
enemies as well as carrying a moral burden. And politically it is tempting to ignore the
broader dimensions of counter terrorism and counterinsurgency as long as bad guys are
dying on a regular basis. These faults and limits, while serious, should not lead to the
rejection of targeted killings but rather a recognition of its costs and why alone they will
not suffice.
Again, this shows an imperfect understanding, even by Al Qaeda and the Taliban, of 4th
Generation Warfare. 4th Generation Warfare, (and also clandestine counter insurgent
guerrilla warfare) does not initially require organizations to be successful, merely the
transmission of ideas to independent actors of like beliefs who organize locally and
attack locally, even if the targets are not of national or even international, significance.
Sarah Holewinski, executive director of Center for Civilians in Conflict, a human rights
advocate and critic of U.S. drone policy, comes closest to understanding the limited use
of decapitation in a 4th Generation Warfare world. “They may kill some of the people
they’re intended to kill some of the time. But as a stand-in for long-term counter
terrorism policy, covert drone strikes in particular may be doing more harm than good to
national security. They’re supposed to rid the United States of enemies without the cost
of troop lives or the muck of a traditional invasion. But on the other side of the
balance sheet, drone strikes are creating anger, not only among locals in Pakistan and
Yemen, but among people elsewhere who want an excuse to hate America. Even for
America’s fans, drone strikes call into question U.S. commitment to responsible use of
force, thanks to the information vacuum around who can be targeted, why, under what
legal framework, and how CIA and Special Forces protocols protect civilians. A fight
worth fighting comes with sacrifice. Drones have relieved much of the sacrifice born by
the soldier but not the civilian, who lives in constant fear of sudden death. Regardless
of civilian casualties, which are highly disputed, the psychological trauma, displacement,
and suspicion among neighbors of colluding with one side or the other has turned
communities into war zones, even with no visible boots on the ground. No wonder
ordinary people are chanting ‘Death to America’ after strikes. There are no numbers on
how many formerly agnostic civilians are now skeptical about U.S. power nor how many
terrorists may arise as a result of the current drone policy. That X factor is reason
enough to pause before claiming a counter terrorism panacea.”
The American people are largely supportive of decapitation as applied in Afghanistan and
elsewhere, but what happens when the targets are in Marion, Ohio or Salt Lake City,
Utah? What happens when the killings of their friends and neighbors go on and on
because the federal government can think of no better way to compel obedience to
unjust, unconstitutional diktats contrary to the Founders’ Republic? Back on 17
September 2009, in a column on my blog “Sipsey Street Irregulars”, I noted Patrick
Johnston’s embrace of decapitation strategies; “Dark Thoughts, Misadventure, Spasm &
Decapitation. How I spent Constitution Day”; and commented on how, hypothetically,
that might play out. The thing is, once started, the regime will find it almost impossible
to stop on any terms besides their own unconditional surrender as they would be fighting
an enraged but dispersed network counter insurgency. It is likely that after a few weeks
of such blood-letting, the administration will be unable to find anybody left alive with
sufficient influence among the counter insurgents with whom they can negotiate an end
to the horror. The fact of the matter is that they would have done their best to kill the
folks they would need to stop what they started. And they will want to stop it, oh, yes,
out of concern for their own miserable hides if nothing else. For they will have
provoked a conflict that will not be directed at the war-fighters, the grunts, even those
in the outnumbered federal police, but rather at the war makers, i.e. themselves. In this
they have only Bill Clinton to blame. When the Philanderer in Chief, frustrated with
Serbian intransigence in 1999, changed the rules of engagement to include the political
leadership, news media and the intellectual underpinning of his enemy's war effort, he
accidentally filed suit under the Law of Unintended Consequences. The Serbians
knuckled under, yes. But the rest of the world took note, including the Three Percent. I
assure you, the appeal to the higher court of history in that case has yet to be decided.
Decapitation, I have tried to explain to people, works both ways in 4th Generation
Warfare. Johnston is as wrong as he can be when comparing past history to 4th
Generation warfare, distributed networks and leaderless resistance, especially as will be
practiced in the United States when it ever goes to war with itself. He is wrong, but the
powerful men and women he is writing for think he's right. Unfortunately for them, in
the situation the administration would find itself after Waco Two, the “decapitation”
strategy would for them more resemble Russian Roulette played with an automatic pistol.
A Hypothetical Scenario A Hypothetical Scenario
They kill some of the Three Percent, at first accidentally perhaps, but almost immediately thereafter intentionally. The spasm of defensive killing begins, targeted at their leadership. They spasm in return. They would not be able to scuttle into their “green zones” fast enough. For each clumsy attack on the Three Percent, they receive a lesson in the 500 meter war, one bullet, or many bullets, at a time. They commit “collateral damage” of innocents, the Three Percent stays within their rules of engagement and kill only war planners and war wagers. I have asked this question before. These leaders will fight to the last ATF agent or to the last oath breaking soldier. Will they fight to the first senior bureaucrat, the second Congressman, the third newspaper editor, the 4th Senator, the fifth White House aide? Can they stand Bill Clinton's rules of engagement? This is what 4th Generation Warfare will involve in the next American civil war in the 21st Century.
Can you understand now why I am trying to get that “useful dire warning” out to as
many people as possible? Only if both sides understand the possibility of how bloody
this civil war will inevitably be can it be avoided.
Unfortunately in this early stage of the 21st century revolution in the United States the political leaders have no intention of stopping their insurgent aspirations to change this nation into a socialist empire for their own picking. They have no intention of not steam rolling over the freedom, privacy, property and lives of the citizens if it will serve their purposes. Mr. Vanderbourg’s desire to bring out this “useful dire warning” as useful, will in fact be useful IF the three percenters will read and take to heart his presentation of what will be necessary to return the United States of America to its function as a constitutional republic guided by the Laws of Divine Establishment, Divine Institutions and Orthodox Bible Doctrine.
This brings us to today. (49) We constantly hear at many levels demands for bans on
semi-automatic rifles and for federal control of all private transfers of all firearms, the
so-called “gun show” loophole. It has been said, there will be no “grandfather clause”
of existing weapons and that confiscation of all military-pattern semi-auto rifles is
intended. Yet, the Three Percent will not obey such laws and they will defy the federal
government to do anything about it. I was once told by a “gun safety” advocate back
in the Nineties that he favored total civilian firearms confiscation. Only the military and
police should have weapons he averred and what did I think about that? I began to
give him a reasoned answer and he cut me off with an abrupt, “Give me the short
answer.” I thought for a moment and said, “ If you try to take our firearms we will kill
you.” It was true then, it is true now. The “arbitrarians” believe that they can
continue to encroach upon the liberty, privacy and property of their fellow Americans
without consequence to them. They cannot. When FREEDOM turns to tyranny under
democratic socialism, the armed citizen still gets to vote, with his rifle. Any grasping
would be tyrant who ignores that truth does so at his or her own peril. I pray, then,
that “Absolved” is viewed as a useful dire warning in time to prevent the 4th
Generation Civil War it describes.
I have taken the liberty to modify some of the terminology and ideas presented very well by Mr. Mike Vanderboegh to bring some statistical information up to date and also to present his ideas in the light of Bible Doctrine and Laws of Divine Establishment principles.
The American Revolution of the 21st The American Revolution of the 21 st Century Century The principles and functions under the Laws of Divine Establishment and Divine Institutions and the Spiritual Life of the client nation must continue no matter who is king, ruler, or president. A change in the administration of the client nation must not change the establishment Modus Operandi or the communication of Absolute Truth nor distract the Spiritual Life of the believer in the client nation. When the 2nd civil war starts here in the United States of America there will be no Laws of Divine Establishment or Divine Institutions function on the insurgency side. Therefore, it is highly possible that the next civil war will most likely NOT be based in a revolution as the main cause. However, it is abundantly clear today that the Laws of Divine Establishment and Bible Doctrine are both being actively suppressed under socialism and anti-Christian religious sentiments. The Laws of Divine Establishment and the Divine Institutions must continue to pump truth into the people of the nation whenever it is possible and this is the only hope for any nation in time of disaster. In a client nation in disaster situations, no matter what the situation may be, for there to be any hope for recovery, believers must have the same freedom to choose for Bible Doctrine and unbelievers for the Laws of Divine Establishment and Divine Institutions as in times of prosperity and they will not have this unless these Absolute Truths from Bible Doctrine are taught. In the current ongoing revolution in the United States any place the revolution controls is no place for someone to be communicating Bible Doctrine. However, if there is any Positive Volition in any area, no matter how difficult the historical circumstances, Bible Doctrine will be available. Continual teaching of Bible Doctrine in civil war, when possible, will result in any present Positive Volition being able to be added to the potential pivot to secure the nation when the war ends. There will be no instability for anyone with Positive Volition toward Bible Doctrine only historical pressure. However, when under great pressure, those who stop to weep are the arrogant but those who weep and keep doing what they are doing are humble. There are the 2 prerequisites to divine solutions for the believer in disaster:
• God helps the helpless (2Cor 12:10)
• God gives grace to the humble (1Pet 5:5)
The reality found in doctrinal truth is that “God makes war against the arrogant and gives
grace to the humble”. (James 4:6, 1Pet 5:5) Believers must understand that only God can deliver in historical crisis and no one has any special power to deliver except by means of the
use of the same Faith Rest Drill (5 Stages) that all other believers have.
Decline of the United States Decline of the United States
The United States of America is living under pseudo prosperity and in a fools paradise on the verge of total destruction which is manifest on a daily basis from the truth of Bible Doctrine and from an understanding of the Lies under the Policy and Plan of Satan put out by the majority of news media. American interpretation of Human History is terrible and the blame for historical pressure and disaster is erroneously ascribed to communism, islam, the Evil of the American government, loss of freedoms, etc. In reality the true blame is with the individual believer in The Lord Jesus, The Christ who has neglected or totally rejected accurate Bible
Doctrine and accepted substitutes under the process of the apostasy of Reversionism and
degeneracy of Arrogance. The Apostasy of Reversionism is one of the primary causes of the decline of any nation from ancient Assyria to any modern nation. The entire fault must lie
with the individual who is under Negative Volition to Bible Doctrine. This is the Believer who rejects Bible Doctrine and the authority of the teaching of Bible Doctrine and the principle of right pastor and who falls willingly into some form of reversionism. Also the unbeliever who rejects the doctrinal principles detailed in the Laws of Divine Establishment and Divine Institutions. The communists, moslems, mediocre government and the many other things which are currently and actively destroying this nation are operations under the Plan and Policy of Satan but are also used, basically allowed, as instruments by God to punish this nation for its so obvious failures. Therefore the real fault lies with the believer who has rejected the word of God and also with the unbeliever who rejects establishment principles and functions in the nation. Behind all the failures of the client nation is the spiritual degeneration arising from collective reversionism. God has blessed this country just as He had blessed Judah in their past and believers must recognize that this blessing and the nation as a whole can be removed in an instant at any time by God, just as Judah was removed even to this very day. Today the United States is composed of confused people and races and nationalities and is NOT by any stretch of the imagination “One Nation Under God” any longer. The people of this country today are totally mixed up emotional reversionists undergoing Emotional Revolt of the Soul and going to their destruction with NO concept of what true Freedom is and what it requires of them. In part this destruction of the United States of America is being caused by the softest attitude toward the trash and scum of the society ever in existence, as was the case in Rome just prior to its destruction. The nation no longer has a pivot of mature believers and the only hope of the nation is in the souls of the remnant of mature believers scattered throughout the
nation, these are known in the Old Testament Scripture as (heb) Jeshurun. Therefore, in order to save this nation there needs to be a very large number of believers who make a concerted
push to reach Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God and receive their Escrow Super –
Grace blessings.
The United States of America is totally saturated with all categories of the Interlocking System
of Arrogance and is involved in an ongoing revolution in this 21st century and does not even recognize it. When the Laws of Divine Establishment authority is completely removed, no matter how bad it may be being used at that time, then revolutionary catastrophe is inevitable. The principle is that the things which are considered ‘BAD’ with a national government will always be far worse in revolution. Criminals often pretend to be crusaders and thus becomes a facade for their own revolution. In overt revolution the criminal uses the crusader to foment the revolution and gain public opinion and support. Ultimately these crusader “dupes” in the revolution are discarded and very often destroyed if the revolution is successful. It is very difficult to differentiate criminal from crusader when they are combined in one person. Such finesse requires maximum arrogance and it leads to involvement in many of the categories of the Interlocking System of Arrogance. Then when a revolution removes a governmental leader there always results something far worse than the bad leader, ANARCHY.
The overriding questions for every person in the United States especially every believer should be:
• “What is our establishment authority?”
• “Where does our constitution fit into this picture”?
• “Was the constitution actually set aside in the first American civil war, the War Between
The States, and if so does it still apply today?”
• “How is it going to be possible ever to reestablish the constitution as a strong legal
foundation for our nation?”
During revolution and “change” in a nation, a Liberal Government always cooperates in this matter by actually being wrong and promoting EVIL according to biblical standards in the form of:
• Socialism
• Welfare state functions
• Redistribution of wealth
• Tax upon profits including savings and retirement
• Downgrading military
• Promoting a disrespectful attitude toward Law Enforcement
• Criminal rights
• Mental Attitude, Verbal and Overt Sin
• Interlocking System of Arrogance, Cosmic Dynasphere I Involvement
• Human Good production to save mankind Adding ambition to arrogance results in Evil being intensified by the emergence of revolutionary leadership. The people are always promised that they will gain from the revolution but they always lose. These are the people, who have been forged into the weapon of revolution, but who are inevitably destroyed by arrogant manipulation at the hands of the hard core revolutionaries. In the atmosphere of revolution there is only the advancement of EVIL and temporary or semi permanent profit, but ONLY to the hard core conspirators. Therefore, Revolution is the Oligarchy of EVIL.
American Low Intensity Conflict 2021 American Low Intensity Conflict 2021
“In Focus, Forward Observer” 26 Oct 2021, Mike Shelby. https://www.forwardobserver.com/
Throughout history, smaller or lesser armed insurgent and revolutionary movements have
pursued subversion, sabotage, terrorism, and other guerrilla tactics to wear down the
WILL of the state to resist the revolution. The strategy of these movements includes:
• Reduce the state’s capacity to act by depleting the resources of the government
• Undermine government legitimacy, most often by provoking overreactions which anger
the populace
• Challenge the authority of the government in areas where support for the revolution is
strong
We’ve seen the most recent iteration of this strategy developing since at least 2016, and
it is one of the reasons the United States is locked in a low intensity conflict, which is
likely to worsen throughout this decade. The nature of low intensity conflict is that it
doesn’t cross the threshold into conventional open warfare involving troops, tanks,
artillery and bombers, and the capacity for violence is not the decisive factor in victory.
This is a 4th Generation of War which one does not win on the battlefield with
conventional military or armed violence, but is a low intensity conflict only possible to
be won through turning the support and consent of the people toward the conflict. It is
mostly a politico-socio-psychological conflict. A clandestine war, a 4 th generation war of
insurgency. (26) Weapons of psychological war and law fare, or legal warfare, are by far
more important in this arena than arms. As we see right now, the overwhelming
majority of “enemy action” is happening in traditional media, social media, banking and
finance, courtrooms and district attorneys offices, and other non-military spaces, not
traditionally associated with war. Yet it is all low intensity warfare.
Over the past several years, I’ve highlighted the large disparities between the strengths
and weaknesses of left wing and right wing groups involved in our ongoing Low Intensity
Conflict. While Far Left groups, such as radical anarchist and armed revolutionary
socialist groups, lack extensive military-type arms, they excel in the psychological and
social aspects of war. This is what can be called “soft power.” Right wing groups, on
the other hand, have long had a focus on developing capabilities needed for conventional
conflict, what can be called hard power, largely at the expense of developing soft power.
In our own domestic low intensity war, the Far Left has the clear strategic advantage as
long as the conflict remains politico-socio-psychological, (clandestine) which is likely.
But there is evidence that Far Left groups are continuing to prepare for armed political
violence. {This is the historical progression of this type of conflict as detailed by
Trinquier. (26)} Often this is couched in the verbiage of self-defense where armed
socialist groups encourage acquiring and training with firearms and tactical gear to
become the backbone {the military arm} of a revolutionary socialist political movement.
Five years ago, these Leftist groups were armed with grandpa’s shotgun or a bolt-action
rifle. Today, we continue to see pictures and videos of range days signaling advancing
capabilities, including AR-15s and AK 47 type rifles with appropriate and sometimes high
quality accessories. Over the past couple years, we’ve reported on the Far Left’s attempt
to develop their own tactical industries, including gun stores, ranges, and tactical trainers
catering specifically to the Far Left. One trend that continues to this day is the
manufacture and distribution of body armor. An individual involved in this effort
recently claimed to have now supplied 300 Portland anarchists with Level 3 or 3+ body
armor.
As we’ve experienced and seen throughout modern history, political parties often have
militant wings composed of armed militias. Sinn Fein and the IRA in Northern Ireland,
and the Sadrist Movement and Jaysh al-Mahdi in Iraq are a couple examples. This
decade, these hand-holding relationships are likely {the actual historical progression} to
further develop between political movements and armed groups on both the Right and
Left. Continued development would absolutely signal the rising risk of organized political
violence. (26 – Modern Guerrilla Warfare} Although the United States was largely in a
lull of low intensity conflict, especially compared to 2016 and 2020, there are reasons to
believe this conflict will heat back up as we head into the fantastic overarching changes
being implemented by Mr. Trump and his Administration now that the GOP has taken
the House and Senate. This has led to claims of the illegitimacy of the last minute
Biden legislation, which may still act as an accelerator of low intensity conflict as the
nation moves into the next midterm elections. {This actually did occur in 2024 just after
Mr. Trump won Re-election}
The “armed Left” tends to be the butt of jokes for many on the Right, however, we are
seeing numerous veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan involved in training armed socialist
and anarchist groups. If these groups continue to progress at the rate we’ve seen since
2016, they will likely develop into a formidable cadre of mentors and trainers as the
“democratic socialist” movement grows more prominent this decade. If you read enough
history, then you’re likely to arrive at the conclusion that the establishment of capable
cadres, combined with reliable financial support and the “mobilization of the masses,” is
a future risk that should not be overlooked.

DRONES: A Federal Communications Commission (FCC) source said the agency must
impose restrictions on Chinese drone maker DJI Technology because of national security
risks. Commissioner Brendan Carr described the company as “Huawei on wings” and
called for the FCC to prohibit the purchase of DJI products with federal funds. “They
are collecting vast troves of sensitive data on Americans and U. S. critical infrastructure,
including high-risk images, using facial recognition technology, and remote sensors that
can measure an individual’s body temperature and heart rate,” Carr said. The
Department of Homeland Security and Defense Department separately affirmed the
Chinese drone maker is “providing sensitive U. S. infrastructure & law enforcement data
to Beijing.” (AC: Security researchers have warned about this type of surveillance since
at least 2016. The Chinese likely have a map of the “human terrain” in the U. S. from
exploiting surveillance cameras, drones, and social media applications which allows them
to exploit social bases through gray zone warfare. {It almost appears in 2025 that the
U.S. government has waited too long to avert any disaster which may be the direct result
of this intelligence gathering by China}
Excerpts from, “In Focus, Forward Observer”, Tuesday, 9 November 2021, Mike Shelby
https://www.forwardobserver.com/
Various far Leftist groups are focusing primarily on three things:
• Environmental and indigenous rights activism
• Mutual aid
• Intelligence gathering.
In the 28 September 2021 In Focus Early Warning, I discussed Far Left activities targeting
railways, pipelines, and other critical infrastructure, both over the past several years and
potential plans for the future. {China has to this day in 2025 demonstrated the clear
ability to disrupt a major part of the critical infrastructure of the United States including
communications, water and power sources not to mention port functions} Far Left
groups are again focusing on mutual aid projects, especially collecting coats and winter
clothing for the homeless and other groups. Mutual aid is a common effort intended to
help those in need, HOWEVER, it does bring the benefit of building popular support for
anti-capitalist and other revolutionary goals. These mutual aid projects, such as soup
kitchens and winter clothing drives, are in part intended to undermine government
legitimacy by showing the ineffectiveness of the government at solving these problems.
{Which in fact government is not designed or authorized to solve in the first place.}
Additionally, if the United States does face an eviction crisis, {today in 2025 this is mass
deportation of alien residents} anti-eviction activism and similar mutual aid projects will
become a top priority for far left groups nationwide. Last year’s Red House Autonomous
Zone in Portland, Oregon, for instance, was grown out of anti-eviction efforts. For now,
a number of Leftist ‘gun groups’ are promoting mutual aid events in the Pacific
Northwest, Colorado, and the East Coast. Mutual aid is a key part of community
organizing and building popular support. Far Left groups continue to develop these
networks, which can be relied on during the next wave of revolutionary and antifascist
activism.
Far Left groups maintain a persistent focus on intelligence gathering. This is by far the
most important point. We routinely see photographs taken by Far Left activists of
legitimately fascist (Patriot Front) and Neo-Nazi gatherings. Photographs are typically
accompanied by identities of those pictured and a history of their activities. Developing
intelligence remains a top priority for the Far Left. As we’ve covered numerous times in
the past, the importance of security and the value of information is stressed in Far Left
organizing and activist doctrine. Several blogs and websites host various manuals on
intelligence and security, including Marighella’s communist Mini-Manual of the Urban
Guerrilla. The accumulation of intelligence combined with mutual aid and community
organizing will greatly aid Far Left revolutionary aims. These groups now have less than
three years to continue organizing and preparing ahead of the 2024 elections. {2025 has
shown that these efforts have fallen short of what were desired results by the far left}
The Southern Border
Renae Eze, Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s spokeswoman, told sources that he “directed
state agencies to begin placing large storage containers end to end at low-level water
crossings to physically block any illegal immigrants from entry.” The containers are
expected to help “curb this invasion” according to Texas Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX), and
Abbot says there are still 733 miles of Texas border that need a physical barrier. Despite
the additional $750 million budget allocated to a border wall in Texas, there are no
plans for when construction workers will be contracted or the wall will be completed.

U.S. COMMERCE DEPT SANCTIONS CHINA FOR “BRAIN CONTROL” EXPERIMENTS: The
Commerce Department imposed sanctions on Chinese technology companies and
announced last week that China’s military is engaged in dangerous work related to
“brain control” research. Commerce sanctioned 11 Chinese institutions, as well as
China’s Academy for Military Medical Sciences, who are involved in military research to
disrupt or impair human neural activity through the use of external electronic devices.
The objective of the research is to create “brain control” weaponry that can be
employed in both gray zone and traditional armed conflicts. The research focused on the
use of computer-generated neural signals deployed through RF transmitters to disrupt
target functions and enhanced defenses from brain warfare weapons via programmable
embedded microchips. ( Analyst Comment: China is demonstrating that it is not bound
by conventional Western ethics when developing new cutting-edge weaponry for use in
unrestricted warfare operations. This type of weapon will likely be used on China’s
ethnic and religious minorities in the testing phase and then deployed against political
targets abroad. (Max Morton)
REBELLION AND VIOLENCE: A recent poll conducted by the University of Maryland
found that 1 in 3 Americans believe there are times when violence against the
government is justified. This is the highest number for American’s that hold these views
recorded in twenty years, with previous poll percentages in 2015 and 2010 at 23% and
16%, respectively. ( Analyst Comment: Degraded trust in government and public
institutions, and the inability of government to solve real problems, contributes to a
growing willingness to use violence. {This is the desired result of insurgent modern
guerrilla warfare. 26} With an increasing likelihood of violent unrest in the future,
security considerations in many local areas will continue to increase in priority. (Dan

The 2nd American Civil War
Last month, three major news outlets took aim at another American Civil War. Three retired U.S. generals claimed in a Washington Post column that the U.S. is headed for another armed insurrection {This is a definite misuse of the term insurrection in that the insurrection has already occurred and the United States is involved today in ongoing modern insurgent guerrilla war and the proper term here would be counter insurgency or counter revolution.} if nothing is done. source:
• https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/12/17/eaton-taguba-anderson-generals-
“Newsweek” warned that “millions of angry, armed Americans stand ready to seize power if Trump loses in 2024.” The article explains that neither side will be satisfied in a close race, with Democrats claiming voter intimidation for the loss or Republicans blaming voter fraud. With an “asymmetric capability to inflict violence,” the political Right, explains the article, stands ready to fight a war over the 2024 election. Source:

The UK’s “DailyMail” quoted a political science professor and CIA advisor who warns that the U.S. is “closer to civil war than any of us would like to believe.” The U.S. is in “dangerous territory” like you would find in pre-conflict Ukraine or the Ivory Coast. Source:

More recently, Canadian media outlet “The Globe and Mail” published a special opinion piece warning that the United States may suffer a political collapse in 2025 and become a right-wing dictatorship by 2030. Looking at the United States, the author sees “a political and social landscape flashing with warning signals.” Source:
• https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-the-american-polity-is-cracked-and-might-
Recently also British media outlet “The Guardian” published an article proclaiming that the next US civil war has already started. “The legal system grows less legitimate by the day. Trust in government at all levels is in free fall, or, like Congress, with approval ratings hovering about 20%, cannot fall any lower. Right now, elected sheriffs openly promote resistance to federal authority. Right now, militias train and arm themselves in preparation for the fall of the Republic. Right now, doctrines of a radical, unachievable, messianic freedom spread across the internet, on talk radio, on cable television, in the malls.” Source:
• https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/Jan/04/next-us-civil-war-already-here-we-refuse-
https://www.forwardobserver.com/
These articles offer a one-sided point of view, that the American right wing would be the
instigator of armed conflict. As I’ve documented for years, Far Left groups were at the
forefront of attempts to launch a popular revolution in 2020, some even threatening to
sabotage and shut down the economy if Trump had won reelection and remained in
office. Some revolutionary Far Left groups are arming and training. While news outlets
ignore these facts, the headlines are generally correct; we are headed for another conflict.
As we approach the one year anniversary of the Capitol protest on 06 January, we’re
probably looking at what’s called “shaping operations.” Shaping is a military term that
describes setting conditions on the battlefield for a decisive victory. In Iraq and
Afghanistan, this often included psychological operations targeting the populace in an
effort to gain their support, or at least deter their opposition, and turn them away from
supporting the enemy. There’s a solid case that the coming barrage of articles about the
one year anniversary of 06 January, and the continued opinion pieces about the risk of
an armed right wing uprising, are likely intended to shape public opinion and justify an
aggressive campaign against dissidents heading into 2024 elections. {This was maintained
for the last 4 years to disrupt the attempts of Mr. Trump to gain reelection and have
finally been set aside with his election in 2024}
More broadly, these shaping operations will support efforts to reinvent America and
redefine American identity, erasing Old Ideas, Old Culture, Old Habits, and Old Customs,
just as Chairman Mao Tse-tung ordered the erasure of the “Four Olds” during the
Chinese Cultural Revolution. While the media focuses on how the Right is arming and
preparing for opposition, they ignore the Cultural Revolution happening now that
replaces Old America with New America and ushers in New Ideas, New Culture, New
Habits, and New Customs. This is the crux of our coming domestic conflict. (Mike

How to Take a Stand in National Crisis How to Take a Stand in National Crisis
In any society there is legitimate delegated authority from God based on the categories of truth given to us by GOD. These Absolute Truth categories include concepts and principles of:
• The Laws of Divine Establishment
• The Gospel of The Lord Jesus, The Christ
• The Orthodox Fundamental Biblical Doctrines.
A Historical or National crisis is the time when God makes war against arrogance. (1Pet 5:5-6) This is always a blessing in disguise especially in the client nation, because in historical crisis where God makes war against the arrogant, the humble or Grace Oriented believer survives. It
is the “humble” believer who is Grace Orientated and avoids the Interlocking System of
Arrogance having the flexibility to separate from the illegitimate authority. These believers
have Honor because of integrity built up from Metabolized Bible Doctrine forming their Norms and Standards so that in their souls, Metabolized Bible Doctrine + Loyalty as a virtue results in perception and APPLICATION of Bible Doctrine as HONOR. Those believers who will not survive cannot recover from the disaster of historical crisis because of a lack of Metabolized Bible Doctrine in their Stream of Consciousness of the Soul and their saturation with arrogance. In these individuals, arrogance and dishonor keeps them in the state of inflexibility having neither moral courage nor humility to apply any aspect of Bible Doctrine to separate from the illegitimate authority. One cannot retain honor and be loyal to conspiracy and revolution founded by illegitimate authority. Therefore, illegitimate authority is based on categories of Evil formed from misplaced loyalty to false principles. False principles are derived from the rejection of Absolute Truth in any category and thus involvement in the degeneracy of the
Interlocking System of Arrogance and / or the apostasy of Reversionism saturating the thinking of a person or group. Thus, false principles always oppose the Laws of Divine Establishment and all other categories of Absolute Truth and include but are not limited to:
• Socialism
• Communism
• Welfare State Functions
• Redistribution of wealth
• Inordinate taxation
• Failure in separation of Church and state
• Failure in separation of economics and state.
• Failure in support of military functions
• Failure in jurisprudence
• Failure of judges to enforce written law but instead interpreting law based on sociology
• Failure of legislators making laws to solve social problems rather than for national benefit
• Humanism
• Atheism
• Religion
• ETC.
Pseudo or illegitimate authority is established on the basis of pleasing personalities and attractiveness and thus is Evil based authority which inspires Evil based loyalty. Loyalty to Truth + Integrity == Honor while Loyalty to Lies – Integrity == Dishonor. Therefore, loyalty is in competition with true Integrity when it is directed toward false issues or people without honor. People in a nation develop personal arrogance and distort their loyalty as a result of involvement in strong delusion and believing the Lies of Evil in propaganda when they
individually or collectively reject Absolute TRUTHS. (2Thes 2:11) Their arrogance may take the form of Crusaderism, Selfcenteredness or Self Righteous Arrogance or many other things. As they become more entangled into the Interlocking System of Arrogance, becoming involved more and more in the arrogance system and more influenced by greater numbers of the categories of arrogance, they develop strong delusions about life and become disoriented to reality. This disorientation to reality results in their becoming ONLY able to believe the Lies of Evil motivated propaganda produced by conspiratorial revolutionary leadership and the dishonorable, dishonest, subversive media. Today in the United States of America, the people are constantly inundated by Lies motivated by Evil from the media and by false principles from almost all sources of entertainment. In the entertainment media there is a constant violation of the principles of truth in scenarios which once were enjoyed and even able to be related to such as:
• Promiscuity as an acceptable alternative to legitimate marriage
• Criminals held up as heroes
• Crusader principles placed above legitimate establishment principles
• Homosexuality as an acceptable alternative to heterosexual love relationships
When facing national crises believers MUST maintain loyalty to truth thereby developing integrity supported by moral courage to function under the Laws of Divine Establishment and Divine Institutions despite all other influences or pressures. Therefore believers must remain loyal to legitimate authority and reject illegitimate authority.
Legitimate authority in the United States of America is supposed to be based on the American Constitution which is, as the supreme law of the land, designed to promote and protect freedom above all else. Freedom is essential for the promotion of Truth in the nation especially in the form of the Gospel of The Lord Jesus, The Christ and the Bible Doctrines of the Word of God. Illegitimate authority in the United States of America is focused on destroying the Constitution and promoting pseudo equality in place of freedom. Destruction of the Constitution is based on the promotion of false religions and Evil ideologies above the principles of the Laws of Divine Establishment, Divine Institutions and all Biblical Christian doctrines. Illegitimate authority over a prolonged period of time has in the United States of America systematically passed laws or interpreted laws to distort and water down the principles of the Constitution in an effort to promote Radical Liberal Crusaderism and false Evil functions in government and society. The absolute principle is that Freedom and equality are antithetical and absolutely mutually exclusive. The essentials of functioning in national and historical crises are to remain loyal to the legitimate authority of the nation and reject the illegitimate authority. For the believer this will require greater and greater moral courage as the nation degenerates into either revolution or civil war. In both of these cases the believer’s loyalty MUST be focused on legitimate authority and avoid strong delusion and accepting propaganda, always remaining focused and concentrating on the truth of Bible Doctrine, the Laws of Divine Establishment and the Divine Institutions. Individuals must be focused on protection of free, uncoerced volitional use, privacy, property and life for themselves and others as well. These efforts will require greater and greater moral courage and even the willingness to sacrifice everything and anything necessary to accomplish these ends and restore the integrity of this nation, IF THAT IS EVEN POSSIBLE. Just as all believers must all pass the injustice test in the Spiritual Life they must all pass the conspiracy test as well. Believers invariably have been or inevitably will be tested to enter conspiracy against authority in business, military, social life, spiritual life, etc. When a believer does not agree with the leadership in an organization then he must separate from it QUIETLY. Conspiracy is a test and as small cases come to the believer he must apply Bible Doctrine and resist becoming involved in such things. Today, in this early 21st century, it is a time in this nation of America of the GREATEST conspiracy ever in it’s history and believers MUST maintain personal and collective integrity and to resist this conspiracy in any way possible and exercise the greatest moral courage no matter the cost. The key principle for the believer to remember always is that The Lord Jesus, The Christ controls Human History:
• Individually
• Locally
• Regionally
• Nationally
• GLOBALLY
This has been formally stated by a legal group “Liberty Legal Foundation” putting the situation in the United States in perspective which is paraphrased in the article:
“The powers that be are engaged in a REVOLUTION to fundamentally transform
America”. It appears that in the United States of America the revolution to
fundamentally change the United States of America into a socialistic democracy may be
the cause of civil war thus the issue will be Truth. However, the country may be
involved in a combination of causes where political antithetical principles may also be a
cause thus the issue will also be freedom. The country may be in a unique situation
where the causes of the coming civil war are both freedom and truth. Today the
country is having miniature revolutions in its cities and will continue to have them until
there is the overt national revolution. In order to stop a revolution there must be a
means of stopping the controlling group or political party. Today the country must split
the focus of the democratic party in the United States of America. {This has actually
occurred with a dissatisfaction of a part of the democratic party with the continued
support of Biden and Harris in the 2024 election} If total consolidation of the power of
the nation is allowed under the democratic party the revolution of socialism in the
United States of America will be complete.”
The first 2 generals who transgressed against the new Hitler government in Germany were shot and killed without cause. Hitler established his own KILL List just as Barak Obama and the Clintons had done. The United States government has authority delegated to it by THE PEOPLE under the umbrella of the Constitution of the Unites States which is an establishment document of the greatest degree. The people in control of the country today are anti establishment in every way giving over the establishment principles of the constitution for control to eliminate all freedoms. The people in public office today UNIVERSALLY have been placed there by others who have no concept of nor any respect for the principles of the Laws
of Divine Establishment, the Divine Institutions, nor the Doctrines of God. (Rom 13:1-5) The Principle is that GOD will never place a criminal in a high administrative position in a client nation UNLESS that nation is saturated with National Arrogance. Now reflect on the ascendancy of Clinton, Obama and now Biden. Prayers by believers are to be directed on behalf of those in control of our nation and because of the focused EVIL coming from the
government officials today, a proper prayer is now the whole corrected translation of Ps 109 modified to reflect the application to the situation in the United States of America. In addition this type of prayer should include the request that the “OVERRULING will of God be done” in support of this nation.
The duty of believers as conservative patriots is to the Constitution not the individuals in the
government when they subvert it and try in fact to by pass it in every possible way. ( 1Tim 2:1-
2) Believers are to subordinate to the Divine Institution of LEGITIMATE government which functions under the Laws of Divine Establishment. The American system is UNIQUE in the world and in history in that Americans have a supreme law of the land so that all laws enacted by legislative action, NOT BUREAUCRATIC RULE MAKING, MUST be based on that standard. Obviously, that system has failed because of ARROGANCE in the legislative government and also in the judicial government branches with their creation of unconstitutional laws and misrepresentation or misinterpretation of existing law. With the election of Barak Obama the executive branch began trying in every possible way to destroy the standard itself, the Constitution, and convert the United States from a “free society” as a client nation into a society of slaves controlled by the federal government under socialism, Marxism and eventually communism. Believer therefore today have a choice to make where both options are correct:
• OBEY the twisted laws which violate freedom and privacy and property
• OBEY the principles and laws of the constitution which protect these
In either case the believer MUST be aware and ready to assume the consequences of his personal decisions.
The issue in this country may come down to separation from a false government just like the
colonies did in 1776. (1Pet 2:13-14) There is no place for legitimate Law Enforcement under a revolutionary government. Law Enforcement becomes a source of tyranny under a revolutionary government and revolution is anti-establishment and anti-establishment is NO environment for proper law enforcement. Law enforcement can only function honorably in dejuri status under a legitimate law system in an establishment oriented government. Law enforcement and police functions in an establishment government are for the defense of freedom and part of the umbrella of authority which protects human freedom. Therefore, law enforcement functioning outside the system of the Laws of Divine Establishment becomes a system of tyranny. Law enforcement is inevitably tied into the Laws of Divine Establishment and is the key to establishment freedom which is in fact that which determines the outcome of the Angelic Conflict.
Strategies in National Disaster Strategies in National Disaster
When one is completely at a loss regarding what is going to happen next in a disaster situation it is best to assume the worst case and try to determine how one would act in the situation of being the aggressor. The arrogant revolutionary aggressor can only think subjectively while the humble counter insurgent believer with Metabolized Bible Doctrine in his Stream of Consciousness of the Soul thinks objectively. REVOLUTION is always wrong and never right and NEVER condoned by God. In all cases the cause of establishment functions must be protected. When a revolutionary disaster begins it is wise to retreat from highly populated areas in the initial stages of battle or in revolution because too many malcontents live in the cities and are the “dupes” of the revolutionaries. These are the shiftless scum of society, the people who do not work for a living nor understand nor appreciate freedom. In addition predominately in the cities there is the criminal element which would work as a 5th column for the conspirators and pillage the urban areas which would then require extra troops to quell or prevent this anarchy. These criminal elements would be city or “urban” guerrillas functioning only for their own benefit. Retreat to less populated areas should be used to spare innocent people and gain the advantage of maneuvering outside of the cities and gain time to organize for resistance and counter insurgency. When a revolution has great momentum and is well organized time is on their side, therefore, time must be gained for those opposing the revolution. The strategic use of time in any military campaign is an essential part of strategy. To gain time strategic withdraw of staff and other people must occur as quickly as possible and in an orderly fashion. This was the obvious and blatant failure of the United States government in Benghazi and Afghanistan in the 21 st century, but was in fact the Obvious and Blatant success of King David during the Absalom Revolution in Judah in about 1000 BC.
Christianity and the application of Bible Doctrine demand that the believer be well organized in his mind and also in his life. The Believer will be tested each day to see if he can decide what to do each day without someone telling him what to do. From Bible Doctrine motivation
and application under the Faith Rest Drill (5 Stages) he should always remain organized. People who are unable to organize their lives on a daily basis are going to be extremely disorganized under great pressure. Promptness of function is a key to organization in life and lack of this might be acceptable to some degree in normal times but under the pressure of disaster or revolution there will be no time for the silliness of being late for everything. No one can serve in any position of authority effectively and at the same time be irresponsible. A great leader is always thoughtful of those who oppose him as well as those who are loyal to him. Most revolutionary armies are uncontrollable without having had discipline instilled in them and without the military organization or police to protect the civilian population of the areas they move into. Therefore, it is better to remove fighting elements from areas where these armies will move into rather than risk the frustration of the revolutionaries being taken out on innocent civilians when confronting them in the urban environment. It is Bible Doctrine in the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul of leadership which results in humility, integrity and sense of responsibility to all people which will combine to give a correct estimate of the situation and to issue the proper orders during conflict.
The Believer’s Preparation for the Crisis The Believer’s Preparation for the Crisis
Principles of Preparation for Crisis Principles of Preparation for Crisis
• Emotional ‘Courage’ derived from anger or hatred is useless, meritless, meaningless, and
neutralized unless you are able to THINK in terms of absolutes and are prepared.
• Do not Lock Up Guns ever and always keep them loaded.
▪ Train children with firearms and to respect them and that they are NOT toys to
play with
• Never sacrifice yourself in a hopeless situation.
• Emotion is useless in a crisis.
▪ Women as emotional creatures and must NEVER disobey a direct order from their
husbands in a crisis or disaster.
• Thinking under pressure, true COURAGE by definition, is essential to overcome adversity.
▪ Thinking under pressure is impossible if one is ignorant and has no information
based on absolutes with which to think.
• Therefore, one cannot function at all effectively in a crisis if he is ignorant and / or
emotional
• Knowledge regarding absolutes and technicalities must be applied to any crisis through
courageous action.
• Never allow any situation to freeze the thinking processes.
• Never ever quit fighting, never give up.
Believers who function consistently under Positive Volition to Bible Doctrine should be ready for any crisis which may come their way. Doctrine is the knowledge which will allow them to continue to think under pressure. Logistical Grace is the system from God designed to support the believer from Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God to his death in order to provide the necessary assets for his spiritual growth and advancement, therefore, it is total support for the believer by GOD in all crises.
Distractions in Crisis Distractions in Crisis
There are 2 distractions for believers which are of antithetical nature regarding crisis situations:
• Preoccupation with the disaster
• Preoccupation with the divine provisions of Logistical Grace
The believer can be so preoccupied with disaster that he fails to remember that The Lord Jesus, The Christ controls Human History at every level:
• Personal
• Local
• Regional
• National
• Global
He can be so preoccupied with the disaster that he is distracted from the consistent intake of Bible Doctrine or the reverse concentration on the Metabolized Bible Doctrine in his own Stream of Consciousness of the Soul. He can be so preoccupied with disaster that he forgets who and what The Lord Jesus, The Christ is. Therefore, to survive any pressure or disaster or crisis the believer must keep his eyes, or focus his concentration, on the giver while he is enjoying the gifts of deliverance. The believer can become so preoccupied with a disaster that he becomes involved in social action, crusades and human solutions for the disaster problems. On the other hand he can be so preoccupied with the material accouterments of Logistical Grace that he forgets the source of Logistical Grace provisions so that having become distracted from the source he is weakened rather than strengthened by the support. Therefore, both the obsession with impending disaster or with the material things provided by the Integrity of God can in subtle ways destroy the focus on the source of provision for the believer, the one who controls Human History. Either situation can become a preoccupation which will destroy focus on the giver causing failure in the crisis.
Grace in Crisis Grace in Crisis
When Logistical Testing is faced by the believer it is to see if he will loose focus regarding the source of those provisions and he must remember the SOURCE is where all that he has comes from. Everything the believer has or loves in life or counts valuable in life, he has because of who and what The Lord Jesus, The Christ is. It is essential to remember that GOD is OBLIGATED to provide Logistics for the believer to keep him alive and if something is missing which is essential for life then simply recognize it and ask God to provide it because he is required to do so by his very essence, his very character demands it and because of the nature of his plan. The believer must never be so preoccupied with what he has been given that he loses track of the source. The source of all things for the believer, The Lord Jesus Christ, through the Justice of God will also provide discipline or punishment for failure to those who have forgotten the source. Therefore, the believer MUST focus on the giver not the gifts because all successes in life are from the imputations from Christ to each believer personally.
It is ONLY maximum Metabolized Bible Doctrine in the Right Lobe of the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul which offsets the potential for preoccupation with either disaster or the material parts of Logistical Grace support and clearly brings recognition of the provider.
In a crisis of national, natural or historical disaster and catastrophe, no matter how helpless the believer may be the SOURCE of his very life is never helpless. While believers are helpless the source, God, does not have any more difficulty in providing for 1 or 2 helpless people than for 100 helpless persons. When there are 100 helpless people and 1 leader that leader has the added pressure from the helpless people. This leader is in the same helpless situation but also has responsibility for the other 100 but in fact the leader is also helpless. However, the source, The Lord Jesus, The Christ, is never helpless. Therefore, 2 helpless people or 100 or
1000 helpless people in a HOPELESS situation who are under humility and Grace Orientation provide the perfect situation for the Source to provide deliverance options. In Hopeless situations, when people are together they must mutually and collectively turn to the source for
their help and must be occupied with the source. (2Cor 12:10) Therefore, when in groups, believers in crises must function together in order to pass the tests of focus on Logistical Grace
or Disaster. As a result of Humility (gate #3 of the Divine Dynasphere) and Grace Orientation from maximum Metabolized Bible Doctrine in the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul, whatever the situation may be in life, in any disaster or crisis or catastrophe, if the believer is still alive and still has the ability to eat and breathe, The SOURCE, The Lord Jesus, The Christ, will still provide sustaining logistics for him. When the believer loses track of the source then what he has in this life becomes meaningless and inevitably results in great misery and discomfort. It is occupation with the source which avoids obsession with the material things or the people provided under Logistical Grace. Always remember that upon receiving any grace provision or blessing, God is glorified and the believer is benefited, therefore, the abilities or skills of man are meaningless because God uses weak, helpless, hopeless people and His policy of grace demands helplessness and hopelessness in order to provide help. God then meets hopelessness with hopefulness and help and when Grace Orientation produces humility in the believer, the power of God is revealed in the helplessness of man. It is Grace Orientation, a basic Problem Solving Device, which produces humility while preoccupation with material
things or disaster produces Arrogance which inevitably results in fear. The believer must live life totally as unto the Lord so that he will never be disturbed by approbation or lack of it from other people. When one lives life as unto the Lord, he will be properly oriented to reality and will have a happiness, a satisfaction and contentment, most people can never imagine and never have, an overriding tranquility for any and all circumstances in life.
God has a plan for his creation including the Human Race and God is perfect therefore that plan is also perfect but it encompasses IMPERFECT beings both angelic and human. In Human History, God uses people in his plan and the believer must always remember that if GOD wanted something perfect to handle and execute his plan he would never use people who have Free Will Volition and an Old Sin Nature which invariably makes all people completely unstable. However, the people God uses can only be used on the basis of His Grace Plan under His Grace Policy and not ever based on their own plans. The Grace Plan and Grace Policy of God involves every individual’s understanding of and function under the Laws of Divine Establishment and Divine Institutions designed specifically to protect and preserve the
Human Race in history and to avoid Power Politics and social action and focus on Pivot
Politics, spiritual growth and consistent Perception, Cognition, Inculcation and Metabolization of Bible Doctrine. Therefore, the restoration and deliverance of this nation, the United States of America as a client nation to God, can only occur as a result of believers who advance to Spiritual Maturity and form the pivot of maturity by which God delivers both individuals and nations. The believer MUST recognize that Divine Policy emphasizes THE INDIVIDUAL and his relationship with the Lord and the Lord’s perfect plan. Resistance to or rejection of Bible Doctrine, the revelation and explanation of that plan, results in the inevitable development of
Scar Tissue of the Soul as a part of Reversionism and the vast intensification of individual Arrogance involvement. This results in the believer being able to ONLY accept the LIE of Evil the plan and policy of Satan and thereby become involved in the human good of social action crusading. These types of human solutions to the problems of life produce greater and greater arrogance in the individual while divine solutions derived from Metabolized Bible Doctrine in the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul of the individual produce humility, happiness and tranquility.
God’s Provision God’s Provision
When God commands movement or taking a stand, he also provides the security for the movement or the stand in place. A part of Logistical Grace for every believer is the Wall of Fire protection designed to keep him alive in the world ruled by Satan. All problems in life
especially during crises must be handled by use of the Faith Rest Drill (5 Stages). Shelter, clothing, food, water even transportation and especially Bible Doctrine, all qualify under the concept of
Logistical Grace and when any are missing God is OBLIGATED to provide them for the believer. However, don’t expect a mansion and beef filet for dinner but be happy with a tent and roast rabbit. Believers being minus Bible Doctrine will often be bitter with regard to their situation in life or their losses during crises, this is complete failure to understand and be a participant in the Plan of God. The believer will not ever advance in the spiritual life until he understands the principles of Logistical Grace and God’s OBLIGATIONS to all believers. The
situation of every believer’s life is under the oversight of God (2Chron 16:9) and no believer can ever advance in the spiritual life until he understands Logistical Grace. These principles pull together the character and attributes of God, the Essence of God, with the Status Quo of the believer in time of testing, discipline or disaster. When there is testing for the believer from God the issue is GRACE and the purpose is accelerated spiritual advance and blessing. When there is Divine Discipline from God, the issue is Sin or some other failure on the part of the believer to continue to function within the Plan of God. The answer to all testing is the
Faith Rest Drill while the answer to Divine Discipline is function under the Rebound Procedure and to keep moving ahead in the Spiritual Life with renewed consistent Perception, Cognition, Inculcation and Metabolization of Bible Doctrine.
All testing is designed to focus the believer’s attention on the one and only celebrity of the universe, The Lord Jesus, The Christ, while all Divine Discipline is designed to focus his attention on the Plan of God, especially his failure to remain in it, and the provision of and use of the rebound procedure to recover. The believer who does not understand Logistical
Grace and Undeserved Suffering Testing vs Divine Discipline will live a life of total confusion and great misery being totally and completely divorced from reality. The mature believer who has passed Logistical Grace testing cannot do the thinking for another believer who is under Logistical Grace testing but he can provide new thoughts the immature believer does not possess and give them doctrinal promises and principles to rely on. However, one cannot run through life by grabbing promises and singing his way through life but he must think doctrine
and develop and deploy Doctrinal Rationales and come to doctrinal conclusions in order to weather the pressures and also the pleasures of life. God has provided and preserved Bible Doctrine for between 5 and 10 thousand years, therefore, the believer must avail himself of that doctrine and once inculcated he MUST THINK for himself. The believer must have the necessary Bible Doctrine so that he can stay at home or go to the hospital or fight on a battlefield and live or die while he constantly thinks doctrine. Every person has to die for himself and the lost principle is that every person must also live for himself by thinking for himself. Therefore, when God promotes a believer, He gives him a few little crises on which to sharpen his thinking skills for the big crisis or disaster of his life. If the believer cannot pass the testing of the little crises, “the charge of the Mosquito” he will never pass the test of any big crisis, “the charge of the elephant”. Therefore, God’s man for the major disaster crises goes through a series of FTXs (Field Training Exercises) in the realm of small crises. After he prefects the solutions for these FTX testings then he is given an opportunity to do it again under the action conditions of ‘combat’ in some great disaster situation. After successfully accomplishing the right thought process in small crises, he will therefore be ready for the big crisis. Life is a training ground, it is NOT la, la land, and the believer is to be trained every day of his life with some problem or situation where he has to think his way through it with the Metabolized Bible Doctrine from his own Stream of Consciousness of the Soul. Testing, small or great, is being in a hopeless situation where money, friends, or influence cannot get one out of the situation and where one’s Metabolized Bible Doctrine must be applied.
Stand Fast and Watch the Deliverance Stand Fast and Watch the Deliverance Moses was given instructions by God regarding the Jews and what they were to do when they had left Egypt and reached the Red Sea or Marsh Sea and they were in fact trapped between 2 mountain ranges and the Red Sea. He was to tell them to STAND STILL, to stand in place, to be stabilized in their thinking and concentrate on the Bible Doctrine in their souls. The principle is that once a believer takes a rest, standing fast in a promise from God, then he must focus on the Metabolized Bible Doctrine in his own Stream of Consciousness of the Soul and MOVE OUT in life to confront the issues of life. Believers must get into the promises of God and the doctrines of GOD and then MOVE, MOVE, MOVE toward whatever objective is before them. Therefore, the believer must STAND STILL on the inside in his Stream of Consciousness of the Soul and constantly MOVE on the outside to address the problems facing him.
• An Example: If the believer loses his employment situation he does not sit on the park
bench and wait for a job to hit him on the head from God. He must get up early, claim
the promises of God for logistics, deploy the Logistical Grace rationale and look
everywhere and anywhere for any kind of job he can find. If he can make 5 cents that
day it is better than NOTHING and most emphatically better than accepting a handout
from the government. There must be rest, calm and stability in the Right Lobe of the
Stream of Consciousness of the Soul with peace and tranquility while there is great
activity on the outside to address the problems or situations of adversity in life.
To Stand Still also means that GOD helps the helpless, ( 2Cor 12:10) those who have no solutions available but GOD does not help those who help themselves. To Stand Still means to have perfect confidence with NO FEAR and complete mental stability in the Right Lobe under any adversity or crisis of life. Therefore the concept is that in any crisis the believer must REST mentally but MOVE physically! There may be constant pressure on him but the believer does not fall apart in hysterical fear but constantly trusts in the Lord and has complete mental stability. During this time God is glorified as a result of the activity which the believer has
engaged in to overcome the adversity being completely based on the promises and Rationales of Bible Doctrine which praises and honors God.
Principles Regarding Logistical Grace Principles Regarding Logistical Grace Logistical Grace always emphasizes the Integrity of God so that once the believer has an understanding of how the Integrity of God works, providing logistics from the Justice of God to the imputed Righteousness of God in the believer, he can use this in any situation under any condition, whether it is at home or on any battlefield in combat or any other situation. In time of great prosperity it helps generate humility and in times of disaster and crisis even battlefield combat or any other situation it provides assurance, confidence and courage regarding the provision and protection of God for the believer. Logistical Grace support from the Justice of God emphasizes GRACE and never the sins or failures of the believer. When under testing, even if the believer fails the test, the emphasis is not on failure but on the Integrity of God in providing for the believer continued Logistical Grace under testing. Many people erroneously assume that which God has never intended for crisis situations. They condemn themselves to death for some real or imagined failure and second guess God while God has not indicated in any way that it is his intention that they should die and the Plan of God has not called for them to die. In any situation in life, especially in disaster or catastrophe or any crisis the believer must never die in his own mind before God is ready to take him and therefore must not die mentally but continue to THINK in terms of Divine Viewpoint and Metabolized Bible Doctrine. Facing a HOPELESS situation does not mean that death is imminent but it does means the believer must know and lean on the Integrity of God. It is LOGICAL to consider that if and when God is trying to teach a believer about His Integrity then HE INTENDS TO KEEP THAT BELIEVER AROUND SO HE CAN LEARN. Mentally giving up and in essence dying before God says come home is cowardice and being divorced from reality, and missing the blessings which God has for you in testing and adversity. This breakdown, though it is a bad situation, is not critical when a single individual does this, but when a whole nation does it that nation is in great trouble. This was the situation in the United States of America in the time of the nuclear weapons build up in the cold war of the 60’s and 70’s and also recently as a result of the CCP Wuhan Virus of 2019. The situation resulted in the people collectively thinking “Something must be done and there must be peace because if someone presses a button and bombs fly everyone will die”; OR, “People must wear masks and get an untested pseudo vaccine so that this deadly virus will not kill everyone, especially ME.” People must wake up to the reality that people die everywhere, every day and under every circumstance and automobiles and bananas have not as yet been regulated or confiscated. Whether in crisis, disaster or prosperity until it is God’s time to take one home He intends for that one to live and IF He intends for that one to live He will give the wherewithal for him to live called Logistical Grace, EVEN IN DISASTER, CATASTROPHE AND CRISIS.
The United States of America is today, and has been for many decades, a frightened nation and has been constantly running scared from every opposing world group from the communists with their nuclear and biological weapons and hypersonic rockets, from the terrorists and their suicide bombers, from the moslems and their believe or die religion, from the invading criminal illegals, from every imaginable affront or offensive group in the entire world. If this continues there will be wholesale slaughter of Americans who will stop thinking as a result of their overwhelming FEAR. Nothing in the bible commands the believer to have fear, with only one
exception, in Hebrews chapter 4 the believer is commanded to FEAR NOT reaching Maturity Adjustment to the Justice of God and NOT receiving his Escrow Super – Grace blessings. He is never otherwise to fear, especially not the communists, the most evil bastards who ever lived, no matter their build up of nuclear or biological or chemical weapons. The propaganda put upon believers today by ALL the media and government sources has declared that everyone will die from innumerable varying situations unless the people capitulate and relinquish their freedoms so the government can decide how to take care of them, but the absolute truth is every believer will be here until GOD, himself alone, calls that believer home from this life. The Believer must understand and always remember that he cannot run scared from any other person or group but that “GREATER is he who is in you than he who is in the world”. Today the people of the United States of America have become a nation of cowards and fear criminals, minorities, moslems, illegals, communists, homosexuals, radical public opinion, etc., and spend their entire lives patronizing these idiotic individuals and groups. Believers must never become cowards and must remember in fact that every person is born to die. In any pressure, adversity, crisis or disaster, possessing this type of fear, means that believer will die 1000 deaths and fear even his own shadow in life. The believer must use all hopeless situations to refocus on the Integrity of God. Under Logistical Grace man’s extreme situations are God’s opportunities to demonstrate His Power. Logistical Grace focus’ attention on the Integrity of God and the weakness and failure of the believer. Logistical Grace logic says, as long as the believer is alive God has a plan and a purpose for his life. Failure is the result of involvement in Mental Attitude Arrogance with its Mental Attitude Sins and when the reality of economic depression or warfare is faced the believer must not fail to face the GREATER reality of the principle of Logistical Grace whereby “My God shall provide all of your needs according his riches and glory in Christ Jesus.” This emphatically applies in situations of all categories of
Warfare and combat. The believer cannot ever afford to be ignorant of the Rationales and logic of Logistical Grace, the Essence of God, and the Plan of God developed from Eternity Past for the believer in time.
Principle of Priorities Principle of Priorities
Priorities in life for every believer must be established from the application of Bible Doctrine in order to function effectively in any pressure situation. Acquiring maximum Metabolized Bible Doctrine into the Right Lobe of the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul results in a change in the Frame of Reference, Norms and Standards and Scale of Values producing Divine Viewpoint priorities for the believer. The believer with proper priorities will be in complete control of any disastrous situation. It is only the true testing of hopeless situations which are unable to be corrected by human solutions, which challenge the believer to perpetuate the final 2 stages of the Faith Rest Drill (5 Stages). No believer can function under Faith Rest as long as they entertain fear in the Right Lobe of the Stream of Consciousness of his Soul. Fear an emotional sin is a by product of Emotional Arrogance involvement which produces Self Righteousness without pressure and Self Pity under pressure. Self Pity leads to discouragement and thus fear, therefore the believer must remove the FEAR PANIC PLOY from his soul through use of stage 2 of the Faith Rest Drill. Faith must reach out and claim a promise from the Metabolized Bible Doctrine in his own Stream of Consciousness of the Soul or accept the authority of a stronger believer and claim the promise he has made. To establish proper priorities of grace for a group, a strong mature believer must have the authority in the situation. He must have Bible Doctrine and doctrinal rationales in his Stream of Consciousness of the Soul. He must be able to apply that Bible Doctrine so that he is in charge of the situation. He must use his authority and be dogmatic and unwavering and in complete control and those who operate on the basis of grace in this manner never lose control of the situation. In a crisis the believer must have something to believe before he can go into action otherwise the action will be disastrous. The believer is not ever prepared for any crisis unless thought precedes action in order for thought to exist in action. When a harsh or demanding command is given by one in authority it is often done to shake those under him out of self pity so that they can then think in terms of Faith Rest. God provides Logistical Grace for both advancing and failing believers however crisis does not require the one who is leading to be thoughtful, courteous or kind but often requires a line of function which is tough and sometimes seemingly brutal.
A good principle to remember is to never judge people by their language, though it often reflects what and how people are thinking, but many of God’s Men have at times very poor language. It is often better for believers to think in terms of 3 and 4 syllable words than 1 syllable ones but a believer becoming upset because someone uses bad language or becomes forceful and is very loud while addressing him will guarantee failure under pressure and in disaster. The believer must be able to think under pressure and if he is to be the man for the crisis he must be able to think under pressure using Divine Viewpoint. The purpose of the life of the believer must be related to Bible Doctrine motivation when under pressure so that despondency and self pity are completely avoided and replaced by Bible Doctrine and the Faith Rest Drill (5 Stages). What is done in pressure situations must be meaningful when considered in the light of Bible Doctrine. For the believer who has been under consistent Positive Volition
toward Bible Doctrine, who has reached and / or exceeded Maturity Adjustment to the Justice
of God, there will be a time in life when others are involved with him in crisis and it will be HIS reverse concentration which will carry the day. If the orders of this mature positive believer are universally obeyed and followed, all will make it out of the crisis. However, if the orders are rejected all will fail. It is the promises from God supported by Bible Doctrine
principles resulting in Bible Doctrine Rationales which bring conclusions which eliminate the fear panic ploy and stabilize the thinking of believers so that they can begin to act and function under pressure. Once the believer’s mind is stabilized by claiming the promise of God this provides a start for stage 3 of the Faith Rest Drill where Bible Doctrine principles are used to support the promises. This requires the believer to draw on the Metabolized Bible Doctrine in his own Stream of Consciousness of the Soul and build the categorical knowledge he has of doctrinal principles into Bible Doctrinal rationales to apply to the situation. Finally the 5th stage of the Faith Rest Drill is drawing a Bible Doctrine Oriented conclusion based on that promise, the Bible Doctrine principles, and the Bible Doctrine Rationales, which will carry both the mature believer, and the others following him, through the pressure situation. These conclusions establishes the REALITY of God’s power and Grace in the minds of these believers rather than the reality of the disaster.
When 2 realities meet in conflict during disaster, the reality which wins determines the outcome of the disaster. There is the reality of disaster and there is the reality of Bible Doctrine related to the Plan of God for one’s life. When the reality of Bible Doctrine wins the disaster will be canceled, therefore, the believer must not be preoccupied with the disaster but must be preoccupied with the promises and Bible Doctrines given by God and thereby become the beneficiary of the blessings of Logistical Grace support and disaster deliverance. Logistical Grace basically says that no matter the disaster or crisis God intends for the believer to have support, so no matter what the circumstances of life a believer finds himself in, Bible Doctrine must be the greater, predominating, reality during the time of 2 conflicting realities. When in a crisis if a believer is lacking sufficient Metabolized Bible Doctrine in the soul to handle the situation then he should look for the nearest believer who has it. Ultimately everything in life depends on the character and attributes of God related to Eternity Past. The believer must realize and truly appreciate that Jehovah, The Lord Jesus, The Christ, is the only source of
Salvation Adjustment to the Justice of God. Once a believer possesses the imputed Absolute Righteousness of God, which is provided for him at Salvation and which is the only true recipient for Logistical Grace, he must clearly realize that this Logistical Grace is the only source of support for all believers in time, those believers who fail miserably as well as those who succeed. What God says by way of His promise in time is what He THOUGHT IN ETERNITY PAST before any pressure, adversity or disaster situation existed for the believer. What God knew was to become reality was fed into the Divine Decree and His person and plan, being perfect from eternity past, preexisted all human creatures and their pressures, crises and disasters, therefore, his promises and doctrines contain ALL solutions to all situations of human life. God has never been caught off guard by man’s failure nor by Satan’s revolution. Therefore, believers will never have a problem not known to God FROM ETERNITY PAST and SOLVED in ETERNITY PAST. The solutions then and now are perfect and in compatibility with His perfect plan and His perfect character and His solutions are found in Logistical Grace.
Survival & Solutions in Disaster Survival & Solutions in Disaster
The believer is responsible for every decision he makes because decisions are made by the use of personal volition and personal volition is the basis for the individual to participate in the resolution of the Angelic Conflict Appeal Trial. Therefore, God holds believers responsible for Evil motivation and thinking and the resultant Sin, Crime and any Human Good production decisions because these take, or are the result of the believer being, OUT OF THE PLAN OF GOD. If the believer has no standard by which to differentiate between these things then his only purpose in remaining alive is to be disciplined by God and then ultimately taken out of this life under the absolute misery of dying Divine Discipline under the Sin Unto Death. The absolute worst thing any believer can do is to become stupid and reject Bible Doctrine so as to become ignorant of Bible Doctrine. Without Bible Doctrine the believer has nothing with which to make correct decisions. This is also true for the unbeliever who must clearly understand and adhere to the Bible Doctrine principles found in the Laws of Divine Establishment and Divine Institutions. It is imperative that every believer understands that God has a plan and a purpose for his life and that purpose is to THINK but he must have something to think with.
Man is clearly said to be what he thinks in his soul. ( Prov 23:7) Therefore, what is in the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul is much more important than what is physically possessed by the individual. There may come a time when the Lord will turn the believer loose with nothing but what he has on his back and what he has in his soul. What is or is not in the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul will then determine whether he survives any great disaster.
With Metabolized Bible Doctrine in the Stream of Consciousness of the Soul and IF he uses his volition properly, disaster will not have any truly adverse effect on him. Today the believer must use the Metabolized Bible Doctrine in his own Stream of Consciousness of the Soul to rise to any occasion and glorify The Lord Jesus, The Christ and advance into the pivot in order to preserve the United States of America as a client nation to God. Assuming an equality of intellect between two opposing individuals, when there is a battle of wits between them, the
humble man will always win. Involvement in the Interlocking System of Arrogance neutralizes all talent, ability, intelligence, and above all any spiritual gifts or spiritual growth. Therefore those believers who avoid or recover from the Interlocking System of Arrogance will survive pressures, adversities and disasters and go on to greatness in life. Without humility the believer has nothing, is nothing and does nothing of any consequence in life and is therefore in a state of ZERO. When the believer gets to the point of realizing that he is unimportant and
non-essential in the overall Plan of God THEN God can use everything that believer is or has to advance his plan.
To Stay or Run To Stay or Run
In any crisis of natural or national disaster, if one decides to stay and defend his home and family, the question for him is will he allow some unlawful government thugs to take his only means of defense, his weapons, like they did during the crisis of Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana and leave him defenseless against the roving looters and thieves? Will he put trust in the bureaucrats who helped put him into the turmoil he is facing or will he unite with patriot brothers and take a stand? As far as families & homes are concerned individuals will need to plan for and provide for the possibility of no public utilities or maybe even the lack of social services from police, fire, ambulance, etc., for extended periods. One will need to consider and plan for how to provide for families, how to cook, heat & light homes and especially how to defend them!
The Essentials Needed The Essentials Needed
The things needed first and foremost are potable water, non perishable food items, medicines & medical supplies, sanitary supplies and disposal of waste because with little or no running water waste will need to be burned or buried. Defense of lives and homes is a serious matter to consider! A fireplace or wood stove is a great way to heat your home and cook but you must lay up a good supply of wood ahead of time. Also a good kerosene heater will do fine but extra wicks are essential, etc., and when using it for cooking & heating remember to ventilate. An extra 275 gal fuel tank or two filled with K1 kerosene will last a year or more and can be used to heat small sections of one’s home! Solar and / or rechargeable lights, flashlights with extra batteries and even a couple of kerosene lamps again with extra wicks, and lots of candles are essentials. Keep a good running vehicle with a full tank of gas and use fuel stabilizer for extended periods of non-use and have a few 5 gal cans of gas also stabilized. Run the vehicle once a week for 5 or 10 min to keep it lubricated and the battery charged. Bicycles are a great means of alternative transportation since a person is his own fuel supply. Always in times of crisis or disaster remember your fellow patriots and neighbors; YOU WILL NEED EACH OTHER!

Family Home Preparedness Check List Sheet #1
In the event of a natural or man made emergency these are the things you will need to consider and do to secure your home and be sure it is safe.
• Gather your family and get them to safety. Gather outside your home get them into a
safe vehicle or even just outdoors if it is safe to do so. Obviously the various scenarios
will determine your course of action at the time.
• Once your family has been taken to safety you will need to secure your area. If the
public utility infrastructure has been destroyed or disabled you will first need to turn off
the natural gas supply to your home if you have one! The service valve on a natural
gas service will be right at the meter located either in your basement or outside your
home. The valve can be turned off with a large adjustable wrench, large pliers or a
pipe wrench. It would be a good idea to hang a wrench or pliers at the meter now so
that in the event of an emergency you will not have to find one it will already be there.
Once you have turned off the valve ¼ turn perpendicular to the supply line check to be
sure there is no leakage. It will smell like rotten eggs if gas is present. Do Not light
any flames, turn on any electrical lights, switches etc before and until you confirm the
gas is not leaking in your home. If you have bottled gas supplied to your home there
will be a hand valve located on the storage tank located outside your home. That is
where you will need to turn it off just turn the hand valve in all the way clockwise until
it is closed.
• Once the gas has been secured then next go to your main water valve and turn it off. It
is usually located in a corner of your basement on the street side of your basement wall.
Obviously if you have a well then do not worry about it.
• Then finally go to your electrical breaker box or fuse box and shut off the main breakers
or pull the main fuses.
• Thoroughly assess the damage if there has been any to your home and determine if it is
safe to return with your family. Or follow your own individual planned family escape
system. Again the individual scenario will determine if you will stay or need to leave.
◦ Note: The purpose for shutting off all utility supplies to the home is first to be safe
while you assess the damage if any. Next if there are any gas leaks due to damage your home will be a time bomb waiting to explode. There is also possibility of tainted water entering your home from the public supply! And the electric structure inside your home could be damaged and cause a fire due to a short circuit etc.
You should have a minimum of at least 1 month’s essential supplies.
• Potable water will be your first priority! If you can afford it you should consider storing
potable water in your basement or storage area and cycling through it restocking it as
you use it. Bottled water when purchased by the case is relatively cheap and has a shelf
life of a couple of years. You can also fill used milk jugs etc and put a teaspoon of
unscented regular household chlorine bleach in it to keep it potable. One teaspoon
diluted in one gallon will hardly be noticed or tasted. Keep it in the coolest place you
can and out of the sunlight and it will keep for a fairly long time. Once all of the
public water supply lines to your home are shut off open the highest faucets and drain
the pipes into a suitable storage container for later consumption. Also canned fruits and
vegetables all have been packed in water, the hot water heater should be drained, also
the tank of your toilet.
• Boil questionable water for at least 5 minutes which will kill any bacteria. Acquire
portable ceramic filters or activated charcoal filters to filter questionable water.
• Food is next, MRE’s can last a long time but require water to be used. Canned Soups
not condensed soups, canned fruits and vegetables, baked beans, spaghetti or noodles
with jarred sauces, canned meats spam etc., large bags of rice or beans will go a long
way and keep for years.
• Start a garden or garden boxes and grow some simple vegetables. Tomatoes, peppers,
potatoes, lettuce, carrots, radishes, cucumbers, zucchini, etc. Buy various seeds now and
store them in a tightly sealed container on the bottom shelf of your refrigerator in the
back corner out of the way. By storing them in the refrigerator the seeds will remain
dormant and last years beyond their expiration dates!
• Obtain supplies for special needs! Baby formula, diapers, etc. Medical needs including
any medications? Eyeglasses hearing aid batteries, feminine care products, soaps and
shampoos etc. Pet supplies? Paper plates, paper cups, napkins, paper towels and plastic
ware.
• Home defense should include a good 12 or 20 gauge pump shotgun and plenty of ammo!
Also consider non lethal forms of defense, mace or pepper spray, bear spray in large 16
oz cans, ordinary wasp and hornet spray is very effective but sometimes it is lethal.
