The Art Of Preparing To Study: Book 9 – Unrestricted Warfare

As I prepare to introduce this extraordinary work, the first word that comes to mind is: pivotal. I view all 11 other books on the list as: foundational. Let’s talk about that.

2) Prepare to introduce? Yes indeed. I've only read this book once. It was about a year ago. The book hit me with extraordinary, explosive force. I knew I'd be studying it for decades, and I will. I realize now, I have to complete my 2nd reading.

3) 1st reading, 2nd reading...why do such things matter? For many decades I truly thought myself a poor student. I felt like one reading of a book didn't do much for me. I felt I hadn't even read a book at all until I'd read it twice, and I thought that meant I was dumb.

4) Ask anyone who knows me, and they'll tell you I'm not dumb. I'm pretty smart. Many of my friends think I'm the smartest person they know. Yet, for many decades in my life I honestly believed myself to be dumb. You should find that interesting. It has far reaching implications.

5) I share all that because I regressed there again this morning while preparing to introduce this incredible book. I laugh. My silly standard for intelligence is flawless memory, perfect mastery of the topic at hand. It's ridiculous, I know. Thus, my suffering.

6) So I crack open the book, only for the first glance of my second pass, and I'm overwhelmed all over again. It's almost as if I never read the book. It's like a time machine. The book completely overwhelmed me the first time I read it a year ago. It's like that never happened.

7) Fortunately, I've learned some principles over the decades and one of them is this. If a book is truly worth reading, it's worth reading twice. The first time for the "plot," where the author is going. The second time for the meaning, what is the significance?

8) Unrestricted Warfare is, without doubt, the most difficult book on my list. Here's an historic concept we require. In times past, as the fury of the battlefield was ending, but not spent, warriors would literally pluck out the eyeballs of their dead enemies and eat them.

9) It was a ritual thing. Eating your enemy's eyes was symbolic of learning to see yourself "through your enemy's eyes." Believe it or not, there was a profound humility in this. It recognized that the fate of battle might easily have gone the other way.

10) Your enemy looks at you on the relentless hunt to find your weaknesses. He must recognize your strengths for his defense against them. He must find your weaknesses for his offense and path to victory over you. To shift perspective so is the greatest mental challenge.

11) If you're willing to attack this book, you must embrace such ancient mental arts. China is our greatest enemy. As Russia fell, China rose. China and Russia were enemies yet bonded in a strange historical sequence. We have no space for that sequence today.

12) A little known fact is that China, 6 years before Russia, became the first communist nation in history. Yet Moscow catapulted to rule over the communist world while China foundered. Imagine the pain of that.

13) Leaping forward to the basis of the book, written in 1998 & 1999, we have to return to the Golf War of all things. Desert Storm. This book is based upon the hypothesis that Desert Storm was both the last war of the old era, and the first of the new.

14) Try to imagine this. China is looking at us in 1998, 8 years after we completed one of the strangest wars in history and considers that war to be the pivot point from the old era to the new. Two of China's greatest minds analyze this and publish a book on this analysis.

15) Publish? Yes. For the world to read. The book is rapidly translated into English. Our military requires the reading of this book also. Yes. Our enemy is on record with its analysis, and with the basis of its coming plans and actions. You can read it for yourself.

16) I have to tell you. It's not just a brilliant book. It's a wonderful book. Maybe the very best of its kind. Kind? Yes, it is kindly. It seeks to avoid violent deaths. I know, that's hard to fathom but it’s true. I'll linger on that with two points from American history.

17) Without Sherman's famous march through South, burning and pillaging as his forces progressed, the Civil War may well have continued for years to come. Think of the 100 Years War of Europe's past. Wars can linger. Sherman brought the South to the point of surrender.

18) We see the same effect with Truman's atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. What might it have taken to break the fighting will of the Japanese? This was a nation where military suicide was a religious value. What would conquest have looked like otherwise?

19) Japan was defeated but had not and would not surrender. They had to be brought to their knees. How do you do that? Truman decided to drop those two bombs. It worked. You may believe me when I tell you, China watched, and has not forgotten.

20) Preparing to read a book, the most pivotal on my list, is not an easy thing. Can you eat your enemy's eyes? Can you shift perspective, and learn to see yourself as your enemy sees you? This is one of the greatest mental challenges a human can face. Are you ready?

21) Let's imagine we are. As I skimmed the book this morning, a fellow I noted the first time jumped back up at me out of the pages. He was a terrible person. His name was J.F.C. Fuller. He was, indeed, an evil genius. He plays a great part in this book.

22) Here's his genius, from Wikipedia:

The Nine Principles involve the uses of force (combat power). They have been expressed in various ways, but Fuller's 1925 arrangement is as follows:

1. Direction: What is the overall aim? Which objectives must be met to achieve the aim?

23)

2. Concentration: Where will the commander focus the most effort?

3. Distribution: Where and how will the commander position their force?

4. Determination: The will to fight, the will to persevere, and the will to win must be maintained.

24)

5. Surprise (Demoralisation of Force): The commander's ability to veil their intentions while discovering those of their enemy. Properly executed Surprise unbalances the enemy – causing Demoralisation of Force.

25)

6. Endurance: The force's resistance to pressure. This is measured by the force's ability to anticipate complications and threats. This is enhanced by planning on how best to avoid, overcome, or negate them and then properly educating and training the force in these methods.

26)

7. Mobility: The commander's ability to manoeuvre their force while outmanoeuvring the enemy's forces.

27)

8. Offensive Action (Disorganisation of Force): The ability to gain and maintain the initiative in combat. Properly executed Offensive Action disrupts the enemy - causing Disorganisation of Force.

9. Security: The ability to protect the force from threats.

28) Friends, fellow patriots, those 9 principles are how we have to learn to think. The authors of this incredible book have studied them, mastered them. And they use them in looking at us. And published the results of their thinking. Imagine that. They published it.

29) This book scares me like no other I've ever read. Why so? Partly because of the Wuhan, China Virus known as COVID-19. I hate to do it, but we have to linger there right now. We must capture our author's 1st principle to do so:

New weapons create new warfare.

30) It was through the COVID biological warfare attack that I came to discover this book. The moment I learned of COVID, I was 100% certain that it was the first biological warfare attack of the modern world. It was a new weapon. I knew that, instantly.

31) When you read Unrestricted Warfare you will agree with me. COVID was a new weapon. It initiated a new type of warfare. Joe Biden as "President" is a direct result. Other weapons were involved, too. Corruption at levels never seen before.

32) It is a favorite trope of the left right now to mock the idea that Hugo Chavez had anything to do with Election 2020. Yet Chavez won his election in the same year that Unrestricted Warfare was published. This, the same year as the creation of Dominion Software.

33) America has enemies without and within. It was never our external enemies that held any real threat over us. It is our enemies within whose power must be feared, respected. Our enemies within hold the ultimate power, sadly not knowing so.

34) Our enemies within are bad people. Evil in their souls. They seek only their own benefit and do so happily at America's expense. They do not, however, realize that the full power is theirs. Our enemies have no power at all without them.

35) If I were an evil man, ready to counsel those with evil purposes in America, this would be my attack. You sell America too cheap. Where you make millions, you should take billions; where billions, you should take trillions. You are cheap, and a laughing stock thereby.

36) But I am not evil. And I couldn't give a hoot about powerful men. I know them, well. They don't impress me much. It is those without power, yet, whom I seek to serve. My hero is Thomas Jefferson. His vison of a farmer's America is my guide.

37) Not enough time has been spent on the name of Jefferson's Party. Democratic Republicans. Leftist history has absconded with the name Democrats, as if their party was started by Jefferson. Not so, not so. The word "democratic" was an adjective. Republican the object.

38) I ask you. Who founded the Republican Party? Lincoln. I ask you. What was his ultimate inspiration? The Declaration of Independence written by whom? Thomas Jefferson. Jefferson founded the Republican Party. History has lied to the contrary.

39) The Communist Party of China, the owner of the Oval Office today, fears Jefferson and Lincoln as they fear no others. It is that truth that their Unrestricted Warfare has alerted us to. They fear us. We are why their warfare must be unrestricted.

40) No one is more frightening than am American Constitutionalist. On the face of the earth, only Unrestricted Warfare may threaten him, and even then, it must involve American traitors to effect.

More to come, but that's all for today.
