Will only be doing a short reading for this month while we catch up on discussions and other projects. "Mechanized Warfare", posted below.

"With the arrival of 1916, after the bloodbath at Verdun, the visage of war had changed. By that time the striking force of the great armies was either depleted or successfully held at bay by the opponent, forcing them to resolve to new means in order to sway the outcome of the battle in their favor. Mobilization became more intense, encompassing with no exceptions all the energies and organizational resources of national states. The Battle of the Somme had already shown that persistent combat for the edges of some little village or a patch of scorched forest demanded the strength of the entire nation, all the way down to the last woman factory worker.

All energies of great industrialized countries with their factory centers, transportation capabilities and armies of machines had erupted in fiery currents onto the battlefields. The front was transformed into a churning cauldron that had to be maintained in working order. Development of weapons, with possibly the exception of large battleships, that manifested in themselves imperialistic will in its pure form was lagging behind technological progress. There was a lack of practical experience to realize the hidden capabilities of technology. Lost time had to be made up, war had to become the essence of the modern spirit of big cities."

Haven't really followed this, but will be interesting to see if anything comes of it.

- The alleged Facebook account of Hadi Matar, the Lebanese man who attacked Salman Rushdie

His profile pictures contain images of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Quds Force General Qasem Soleimani and other IRGC generals.

- To be honest, this is all a little bit suspicious.

This + the fake name "Hasan Mughniyah" (referring to the late Hezbollah commander Emad Mughniyah) could point towards a very obvious false flag by the CIA/Mossad.

We have to see if in the next few days the US uses this event to put blame on Iran or Hezbollah and uses it as a justification to take some sort of military or political action.

If the US blames this on Iran and changes some sort of policy as a result, my personal suspicion is that this was a carefully executed false flag.

"Russia hasn't lost a man, and look what we've lost."
I think studying America's response to revolutionary war would reveal a lot about the past few decades.

Ukraine's Zelensky Angry Over Leaks Coming From His Government

"During a Thursday briefing, Zelensky claimed that Ukrainian officials were discussing sensitive internal matters with journalists to boost their egos. “War is definitely not the time for vanity and loud statements,” he said, going on to argue that leaks to the press are setting back Ukraine’s military.

“The fewer details you divulge about our defense plans, the better it will be for the implementation of those defense plans,” the president continued."

Augustus during his principate (kingdom) embodied the archetype of Chackravartin, the King of Fate. This solar destiny accompanies the Aryan warrior with a supernatural birthmark manifesting itself in forms of celestial 'light'. Alexander's mother witnessed a bolt of lightning sent by Zeus into her stomach, which she whispered into his ears before he set off to conquer Persia.

Genghis khan's mother gazed upon a blazing light, as bright as the sun, in her dreams before his birth, immediately grasping the victorious fate that lied Infront of the future Khan. The mysterious Islamic escatological figure of the 'Mahdi' who's face shall be like "piercing thunderbolt overwhelming it's beholder", such that his mere presence is enough to shatter the antichrist into a million pieces like fragile glass and do away with his false kingdom.

Finally ofcourse we see in Jimmu, the first solar emperor of Japan, actualizing the spiritual myth of man penetrating into the material realm, literally known as "son of the storm". In all cases the Earthly conquests of the transcendental Hero are only a reflection and fulfilment of his divine destiny or as Confucius says the attainment of the mandate of heaven.

The Maxims of the Fight: Surprise, Speed, and Violence of Action.

Which way, Western Man?

Difficult to prove who could be behind this, but worth remembering that it follows the escalations in Crimea.
