I love these. Have em hung in in my secret policeβs HQ and in front of the execution grounds. Iβm a particular favorite of the βseeds grow in darknessβ line...
YOU HEAR THAT, CONFUCIANS?? <shovel> YOUβRE IN A POWERFUL PLACE OF TRANSFORMATION! <shovel> TRUST THE PROCESS!!
When I think honor and face-to-face combat, I think airstrikes and drones. How prophetic Keegan was; now the US military can display its honor via drone without having any troops on the ground at all! & The last part! O Lord!

I'm watching French TV news at the moment. All the attention is on the "delinquency" and "criminality" of the rioters. No discussion about the brutality, Islamophobia and racism of the French state whatsoever. Typical French arrogance.
The US sending its largest battleship to the Mediterranean to help a well-armed country counter a group of murderous teenagers on converted bicycles & hang-gliders is (particularly after the Afghanistan debacle) emblematic of the severe mismatch between bureaucrats & reality.
