Sun Tzu - Art of War with commentary

Going to add this to the insurgent reading library section. Although much of it is self-evident, it's still a good study. While it applies to standing armies by and large, the thoughtful insurgent can glean much that can be applied to asymmetrical warfare.

Whether the object be to crush an army, to storm a city, or to assassinate an individual, it is always necessary to begin by finding out the names of the attendants, the aides-de-camp,
and door-keepers and sentries of the general in command. Our spies must be commissioned to ascertain these. #

Literally "visitors", is equivalent, as Tu Yu says, to "those whose duty it is to keep the general supplied with information," which naturally necessitates frequent interviews with him.

Again, self evident but surprisingly lacking in any tactics I've seen lately. This axiom applies not only to organised resistance, but to lone wolf tactics also. Substitute "General" for politican, bureaucat, bankster or leader of any identified enemy group. Crush the head. Destabilize.

Intelligence is the first pillar in building any type of resistance to our enemies. Without it is like fighting blind.

The Art of War is the original all-time classic.  I'll read it again.

I think it is almost too late to get our country back this way, but who knows, if obongo and his conspirators are arrested by Interpol for multiple counts of treason during wartime there may exist an opportunity.
Resist DC: A Step-by-Step Plan for Freedom

by State Rep. Matthew Shea (WA-4th)
This summer, legislators from several states met to discuss the steps needed to restore our Constitutional Republic. The federal government has ignored the many state sovereignty resolutions from 2009 notifying it to cease and desist its current and continued overreach. The group decided it was time to actively counter the tyranny emanating from Washington D.C.

I deleted the duplicate comments.  It looks like I have to log in to JS to do anything.  I think it has to refresh before it shows the number of comments.  I'll mess around with it some more, it's a trial test, so I might not end up buying it.  I like some of the features though, liike the youtube embedding.

I agree, there is no taking back our country.  There is nothing to take back.  We must begin anew.  I checked out that article, and if you check out rebellion blog in my blog list, you'll see what the federal government thinks of the power of the Sheriff.  ZOG must die, whatever it takes.

People will have to go through this first, because there are millions who think we can still work within the system.  When they find out they can't, they will come to our side.
