Amazon ads stopped providing images for their products, including the books on the sidebar. I don’t know why and took awhile to getting around to fixing that, but am almost done now. I noticed when doing this fix that the two books “The 4 Generations of Modern Warfare” and “4th Generation Warfare Handbook” by William S Lind were banned from Amazon.
When this happens, I replace the amazon link with a place to buy whatever book even though I get nothing from it because I don’t care for the censorship. There are about 8-10 of these on the sidebar. In this case finding a link directly to these books seems to also be censored from standard search engines because I couldn’t find it until I used the big, bad Russian search engine yandex. I recommend this when your typical search engine is clearly blocking you from finding something (free streaming old movies for example….). What was available seemed to include “debunking” mainly and/or strategic omission of the relevant source material and author.
Seemingly, these books annoy someone who really deserves to be annoyed and I am happy to remind everyone they exist and suggest sharing. For one thing, the content of 4th generational war has never been more relevant given the ongoing invasion through migration. For example, importing 20,000 Haitians into Springfield, Ohio who had a population of 60,000. Crime and random cruelty to animals has become rampant. Clearly an example of the use of 4th generation war attacks against ordinary Americans by the state. Additionally, the publisher of these books is Vox Day, who does a lot of good work and is most active in cultivating and growing alternative spaces free of clown world. Castalia, Arkhaven, and social galactic are all his projects I believe.
Here is a review of the later book on Castalia house. From the review:
First Generation is roughly the end of the Thirty Years’ War to the U.S. Civil War. Things like rank, uniforms, salutes come from this era. The tactics are line and column.
.
Second Generation is a result of technological advances. It is firepower/attritional warfare, with central control. The French developed it in WWI and after, the U.S. Army is still essentially second generation.
.
Third Generation is maneuver warfare. The Germans started it off with the storm trooper tactics in the last year of WWI and updated it for blitzkrieg. Mobility and initiative are important, self-discipline over imposed discipline.
.
Fourth Generation warfare is what we see now across the globe in failed states. With the failure of the state, you have clans, tribes, sects, religions using military force, which had been for a few centuries, the domain of the state. William Lind argues that there is no pure military solution as Fourth Generational Warfare is a political, social, and moral phenomenon.
We are rapidly approaching a point were 4th generation warfare will be knocking at our own doors because of the extreme instability of the Untied states. Pun intended. Its probably a good idea to know as much about as you can, while you can. 11 dollars is not much to ask for information that could save your life.
