The rules of War

[EndtheMadnessNow]

The video shows what the rules of war are suppose to be. IMO they are nice rules that very few people or countries follow unless a camera is around. In WW2 when an SS dude was captured after he was searched he was shot, no hesitation no excuse.

In a genocidal war the object is to wipe out the citizens you have been taught to hate; sometimes since birth.. Israel and Palestine, different tribes in Africa, and of course the always present religious wars and hate. Now we have Russia killing just about anything that moves in certain parts of Ukraine.. Maybe all this one day will revert back to, "Kill everyone and salt the earth so nothing can grow" mentality like the Romans did to Carthage.. Anyone who has been in war hates war IMO but even saying that it is easy for some to peg out their hate meter and go full auto with your hate machine on anything that moves. .

Anyone holding a camera is fair game. Russia, the Wagner Group, or ??? Difficult to discern who/what is going on over there aside from the carnage.

War on the battlefield is similar to the credo or motto of counterIntel people read into Black Ops projects:
1. There is no truth; anything goes
2. We can do anything; anything goes

I can't find my link nor recall his name, but back in early 80s (I think 1982) one of those deep thinker RAND types who wrote paper wargaming scenarios for the Pentagon boys said the battlefield is no place for humans and proposed a cyborg/terminator + Space based weapons alternative. 40 years later they are getting closer with drones and who knows what they now have above our heads up in the Space cloud.

"You would think intelligence would count for something in the intelligence business. But do you want to know what it really is? What really sets the agenda? Military-industrial happiness.

You keep the coffers open in Congress, you keep the money flowing to the contractors."
