Signing of end of hostilities between US and Iran. End of high oil price and uncertainity. Certainly we believe Ms. Congeniality that what we aspire is WORLD PEACE.
Praise the Lord.... Hallelujiah.

Confirms the thesis that war is not won on battle strategies or military tactics; but on logistics
It is more fun criticizing
The analysis is a masterpiece of critical thinking of the first principle, ie breaking down the weapons in its component. Those are Pentagon did a masterful thinking on this campaign - destroy the capability to produce the weapon that can swarm, and the asssymeteric warfare is gone.
Peace to be here back soon.
Congrats to US. But the real purpose of the war is not that venerable, is it? (Smokescreen for the domestic problems and conflicts and the loss of Petro dollars, Japan currency fiasco)

US Pres. Donald Trump announced Iran Israel ceasefire, Iran said there is none
US has joined the Iran Israel conflict; Iran counterattacks US bases. Will there be a WW3?
It is more fun criticizing
US has joined the Iran Israel war; US bombers bombed Iran nuclear facilities. Iran has targetted US bases.
Will there be a ceasefire, surrender, or the conflict spread further triggering a world war?

War on bloggers, vloggers discourage postings
It is more fun criticizing
This post has been kept off the computer and android lately because of war on bloggers and freeed of speech Powerful committees at HOR have been making threats on bloggers and sometimes one thinks that ML has been imposed de facto
One does not earn from this and merely wants to contribute to growth and progress of web. The actions of the powerful people, who are alleged to be plundering the coffers, leave a bitter taste for many

Enemies from within - Trojan war
It is more fun criticizing
The 10 year siege of Troy by Greece was ended with the introduction of the Trojan horse. A Trojan horse with Greek soldiers in the abdomen was placed in front of the closed gates of Troy. The horse was taken in by the Trojans, Once inside the Greek soldiers went out opened the gates and let the rest of Greek Army come in and attack the walled city of Troy
Right now without getting into a war, due to the unrestricted warfare of the other protagonist we have all ready the Trojan war within:
1. Electronic C....e equipment which could have been spying in the country;
2. Hundreds of thousands of offshore gaming workers. They were alleged to have with them
P...A military uniform
3. Citizens with same blood or countrymen (and leaders) who are sympathetic to their nation
4. Thousands of C...e students who are located near strategic locations in the country
If there should be a war, its going to be over once this staets.
Think again if we are going to war.

7,000 troops sent. By President Elpidio Aquino.
40,000 troops vs 1,000 Filipino soldiers of 10th BCT. From a tank battalion to heavy motorized battalion.

Very touching.
Increasing importance of the Philippines to the world, threats, provocation

Battle of the giants, ants get squeezed.

PNP reverses thrust on vs drug
It is more fun criticizing
The new PNP chief Azurin has mellowed the PNP approach on fighting illegal drugs. No more war on drugs as is was under Duterte. One wonders if this is in accordance with PBBM guiidance and his pronouncement that he will continue war vs drugs by PDU30. Has this anything to do with threat of
investigation by ICC

Many foolish statements on presser and newsfeed re Covid 19
It is more fun criticizing
One of the important lessons this post learned in Post Graduate course and in teaching graduate courses is the train everyone in logical and critical thinking.
Thus it pains me that certain statements border on lack of thinking and outright stupidity. Even decisions that are being made.
1. We are winning the war vs Covid 19. Whoaa it is not going down, It is not zero. While the deaths are declining the number of infections arent. What;s wrong with our data analysis and that numbers tell a story. It sometimes tantamount fooling people if not outright insult to intelligence of many.
2. We can resume classes masses, or mall operation, or resto. But these places events are superspreader. The change in CQ classification ran against the stats. Furthermore, the history of Covid19 spread shows that they take place in crowded space, where there close personal contact and closed spaces. And we tempting the virus by doing all of these. Contrary to science and logic
3. Fighting covid with guns, and armored personnel carrier and strict military rule. As if the enemy virus are visible soldiers of war, and germs.
The disinfectant the street spray would seem to indicate that roads are reservoir of the virus. Covid is spread via drop infection. That means being infected by aerosol droplets generated by shouting talking, laughing aside from coughing and sneezing. Many advertise the misting solutions as antiviral. We know this to be untrue. Hence we unwittingly killled a doctor with disinfectant mist.

Ingenious protection invented to protect the PA and Philippine Marines tank from RPG and other anti tank projectiles

Ever wondered why the tanks that you see in the TV at the Marawi conflict have wood and carton wrapped around them? They are supposed to be protection vs anti tank projectiles like RPG and the likes. They have proven to be effective and increased the survivability of tanks and Armored Personnel Carrier (APC)

Sen Dick proposes suspension of the writ of habeas corpus in support of the anti drug war from Philstar
Sen Dick Gordon filed delivered a speech before Senate and proposed that the writ of habeas corpus be suspended to support Pres. Du30 in his fight against drugs. Sen de Lima is opposing such a measure. Pres Du30 has all ready declared a state of emergency and lawless violence as provided for by the constitution. She said this is creeping towards martial law.
This post agrees this time with the good lady Senator. There must be sufficient check and balance this time

Senate Probe on Drug Related deaths overshadows the accomplishments of PNP; fails to realistically appreciate the extent of drug problem
It is more fun criticizing
Rizal Philippines
August 25, 2016
From Interaksyon
In the recent Senate hearing on drug related killings it was reported that:
- 673,978 drug personalities have surrendered reported for processing,
- 11,874 drug pushers and users have been arrested.
But there were casualties:
- 712 deaths from legitimate police operations
-1,067 as "under investigations" or vigilante type of killings
From the PNP ranks:
9 dead, 18 wounded
From AFP:
3 dead, 8 wounded
The police enforcer side is not spared from the killings. Why is this not being investigated.
Extent of drug related problems:
5 million drug users addicts affecting:
11,321 or 27% of total barangays in the country (42,036)
1,611 or 94% of the 1,706 barangays in MM. Wow. THIS IS A HUGE HUGE PROBLEM
Is this being highlighted noted well in the investigations?
In a war campaign, as Senator Honasan pointed out, there were casualties, and these stat show that. Especially if there are no clear frontlines and sometimes as the reports show, even fellow officers are involved, and even generals.
The investigation of these so called EJ killings should be left to NBI, or CHR and not the Senate where there are more pressing legislation to be passed. Otherwise, it would appear that the ongoing investigation is the result of drug lobby who is spending a large sum to stop the war vs drug, or a war by personalities against each other

War is complicated thing
It is more fun criticizing
Philippines, July 26, 2014
According to former Secy of Defense Robert McNamara, war is a complicated thing. Not that man are not rational but there are limits to rationality.
We see shifts in alliances: in the Iran Iraq war, contra, the Isis, Syria and most especially the Arab world where alliances shift like sands in the desert. Former allies become enemies. See the Afghan war where the Afghan rebels were used vs Russians, now fighting the Americans who recruited them or where once their allies.
Let us see also the Israel Palestinian border strife now. Most of the rhetoric Israelites and their US allies use vs Hamas is that why would you defend your state if 1600 rockets were fired vs your family. And yet, there were 700+ Palestinians, mostly children and women who were non combatants who were killed. It is no longer defense move but agression on the part of Israel. The argument that Israel also use is that Hamas has put missile launchers amidst schools in populated areas making many children and women as human shields. Yet there was this UN school were a number of children were killed. Israel claims that there was a rocket that exploded prematurely. Investigations showed though that there was no rocket sharpnels as claimed.
Who is telling the truth. Complicated really this war thing

Rational men do not go to war - Robert McNamara
It is more fun criticizing
Rizal Philippines July 18, 2014
There is a rash of war: in Africa, at Gaza strip, at Ukraine, Nokor saber rattling, China challenging the territories of the sea at South east Asia. there is a war in Syria and the constant bombing (by suicide bombers) in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq
We hear lot of deaths.
And incidentally, there was movie that featured Mr Robert Mcnamara and the movie is titled "War Fog"
He was the former President of Ford Motors called by the Kennedy brothers to serve as Sec of Defense and later to Kennedy's successor Lyndon B Johnson. He was referred to as the number cruncher called into the military. He always wanted research and stats. And when asked about deaths in Vietnam, he told it was only 25,000 of the reported 58,000.
He said about war: "Rational man do not go to war; but there is limit to rationality" And said that war is a very complex issue like having civilian deaths, and deaths of children (especially if the combatants hide among the civiians)
