The III Percent Mission Statement: Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will
within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. ~ Thomas Jefferson
In the absence of orders, go find something Evil and kill it!
Enemies of Liberty are ruthless. To own your Liberty, you'd better come harder than your enemies..
We live in a time when standing armies, vast navies, advanced fighter jets and even nuclear missiles are increasingly no longer necessary to break another nation's will to fight, largely because nations have become so heavily entangled economically and electronically. The age of force-on-force warfare may be coming to a close.
Why send soldiers into battle when you can cripple an enemy's economy through financial machinations, or destroy their infrastructure through cyber attack? Physical combat would be limited to guerrilla warfare, which itself could serve as a proxy for governments when economic and electronic means are insufficient.
Right now is China's best chance to destroy their main rival, without firing a single shot.
