post modern military science
anybody else read those papers on Military "Swarming" put out by the Rand Corporation late 90's early 2000's? Swarming and the future of Conflict or some bullshit, it conviently came out right before iraq, there's some interesting internal documents on the iraq war in like 2005 that detail the tactics of the "insurgency" using a lot of the swarming analysis:neocat_uwu: networks of autonomous insurgent cells that can't coodinate and change form rapidly, distributed weapons caches and light weaponry allowing for rapid deployment, networked intelligence being highly responsive to the occupation force.and there was also Network Centric Warfare and Power of the Edge whole genre of 90's futurist military utopianism that the generals were vibing too,, like soldiers wear cool helmets with HUDs and coodinate strikes with satelites, I think a lot of them were Command and Conquer and reading Nick Land on the low, but mix that with neo and Paleoconservatism of the previous generation, who had many many theoretical/doctrinal breakthrus in the 80's after the Pentagon stopped doing acid and finding themselves in the 70's, Boyd had is OODA loop and his Powerpoint, and there was this mothafucking piece of shit and his Manuever Warfare(compare with Gramsci's "War of Manuever) basically became the dominant military doctrine over the crude Clausewitzean Attrition based doctrine of the Old Wars, and now these think tank funded technocratic ghouls pushing Swarming and Network Centric Warfare, they came in as the hip new bart simpson tech entrepreneurs of the military industrial complex.
And this shit is all literally US Military Doctrine today, it's all part of COIN and Joint military operations, along with Targeted Strikes" or Crisis Management, Small Wars etc.
Oh, let's not forget the IDF
Shalom Naveh aka "Foucault on Steroid"s, writings on "Rhizomatic Manuever" their application of striated space, their description fo the palestinian resistance as an "infestation" , Shamone wrote a history of military science, was very influenced by soviet Deep Battle and considered it like , I believe Tiqqun or Invisible Comittee mentions him somewhere
