A CNN article entitled CNN.com - Gulf War general outlines military strategy - October 3, 2001 describes a memo from General Barry McCaffrey (ret.) and quotes him as saying"We are going to disrupt these people through preemptive attack ... we will deceive them, we will run psyops on them, at selected points and times they will be killed suddenly, in significant numbers, and without warning." Would you want to be in those crosshairs? If we are one tenth as innovative in military operations as we are in technology and entertainment, it's got to feel like Blair Witch Project over there.
To paraphrase Thomas Friedman, yesterday was my son's tenth birthday - we went to Great Adventure with nine of his friends. Tomorrow I may go to a concert. Today I am blogging. I wonder what Osama bin Laden is up to in his cave?
