Rare Earths War Booty, a Pentagon Carrot on the Stick incentive default deja vue from Op. Enduring Freedom, in Afghanistan.
This is the best Australian Documentary on the current Ukrainian War which explains how the warmongers from America, like Senator Lindsay Graham and the current POTUS Trump Ukrainian War, is a page straight out of the Afghanistan long drawn out war. The promise of mineral Booty. In this instance, like Afghanistan, the discovery of trillions worth of Rare Earths minerals.
The number one economic industry in America is the military industrial complex. There is no other reason for continuing the war apart from the end itself, sustainable warfare requiring weapons, munitions, and advancing technology require a hungry market demand, pushing unscruplous Politicians eating from the Palms of major Military Industries determined to stimulaate the American war economy for the cost of Ukrainian and Russian lives, as well as thousands of Foreign Mercenaries.
The creep of NATO weapons into the war especially American weapon systems is the biggest economic insentive for the US to maintain long drawn out wars, like Afghanistan and now Ukraine.
As the Rabbit is pulled out of the hat with the rare earths incentive for prolonging a slow contact line war dragging mechanised Brigades Combat Team size area of operation skirmishes up and down a one thousand kilometres or so combat contact line, has been deliberately arduous and prolonged, allowing for the military industrial complex to replenish and to upgrade military technology during the War.
Muddling Through the Military advancing technology.
At the beginning of the Russian Special Military Operation, the current Standard Operating Procedures of warfighting hitherto never accounted for the true scope and scale of the FPV Drone on the battle Front, from Trench warfare to street to street, building to building, house to house, urban terrain combat situations, FPV Drone warfighting capbilities were completely unprecedented in modern warfighting preparations.
The shock and awe of the Ukrainian war in the past three years is not through the impressive Russian ordinances on the battle front, this was expected. No, it wasnt the Russian artillery or even their impressive array of missile systems, it had begun with the Turkish Bayraktar TB 1 Drone when the Russian Columns of Mechanised Infantry Battalion lines were effectively annihilated on the roads snaking their way towards Kiev and other Major Ukrainian Urban centres at the start of the Russian SMO.
Following this initial shock and awe not for the civilian populations but for the military Soldiers, with the TB1 and later the TB2 Turkish Bayraktar Drones, would be the Russian version with the Iranian Shahid Drones in reply to the Bayraktar. The respnse by the Russians was devastatingly swift.
The FPV Drone.
The muddling through process of Military warfighting capabilities would augment Artificial Intelligence technology onto the modern warfighting upgrades that would change the warfighting standards to a completely unprecedented level.
Fishnetting street corridors have been constructed, Turtle Tanks ad hoc improvised constructions were on the field warfighting capabilities upgrades that were not standard military training from the initial military training for Combat Engineers and weapons procurement military schools. These new military warfighting upgrades were developed on the battle field.
The shock and awe was not for the unsuspecting civilian population of the horrors of war, which is always expected, it was felt more by the ordinary Soldier completely unprepared for FPV Drone counter measures. Like headless chickens, the ordinary commanding officer of fireteam squads, sections, and platoons would watch hopelessly their comrades blown apart by drone attacks from everywhere. No trench would proffer protection let alone any Bunker along trench lines. No bunker within houses or buildings could offer protection from the drones. Until makeshift nets were contructed, and metal plates and fishnet chicken wiring meshes would offer some protection on vehicles and bunkers. It only meant that more than one or two FPV Drones are needed to destroy a military vehicle or Bunker.
In the meantime, the Military industria complex is continuing to muddle through the effective means of killing and to develop effective mens of countering these enhanced killing tactics along the battlefield. The warfighting learning curve has steeped to its highest level during the Ukrainian war. The FPV Drone was indeed the game changer.
The old Pentagon narrative.
To explain and to justify the political actions for the Military Operations in various theatres and areas of operations, especially if there is a highly likely political backlash at home, the carrot on the stick justification such as the promise of a Rare Earths Booty, is comewhat considered as a default light at the end of the tunnel just cause for decisionmakers.
The Rare Earths Booty is in truth a worn out default, like Afghnistan, for a futile war that is delaying the ineluctable defeat for the American military resolve. Like the Afghanistan precedent, the Rare Earths default has been announced.
