“No nation has a greater tradition of guerrilla warfare than Ireland. Our history is full of examples of its successful use. We have produced some fine guerilla leaders whose true qualities have never been fully assessed. Their strength lay in the support they received from the Irish people…
A small nation fighting for freedom can only hope to defeat an oppressor or occupying power by means of guerrilla warfare. The enemy’s superiority in manpower, resources, materials and everything else… can only be overcome by the correct application of guerrilla methods.
Guerilla warfare might be defined as the resistance of all the people to enemy power. In the struggle, the guerrillas act as the spearhead of the resistance. Up to the Second World War, the military textbooks ignored this phase of warfare. After that, they couldn’t afford to ignore it…
In regular warfare, the tactical objective is to destroy the enemy in battle by concentrating superior numbers at a decisive time and place… A regular army unit depends on all kinds of tactical support: air, ground, communication, supplies, armour, artillery, reserves, units to the left, right and rear, and so on. There are all kinds of weapons available. Plans are worked out by General Staffs, transmitted through a chain of command down the line. [Soldiers] are trained to fight as cogs in an intricate and vast machine…
The situation of a guerilla is quite different. Outside of the support he gets from the people among whom he operates – and this support must never be underestimated, for it is vital to his eventual success – he fights alone. He is part of an independent formation that is, in effect, an army by itself. He must be self-contained.
If necessary, he must act alone and fight alone wit the weapons at his disposal – and these very often will not be of the best. He must find his own supplies. His endurance has to be great; for this he needs a fit body and an alert mind. Above all, he must know what he is fighting for, and why.
The guerrilla must move fast and hit hard. He must be adaptable. He must change his methods constantly. His training must be such that during a withdrawal, his formation can break up and reform later. It is not his job to hold a line, or take a city, or maintain a strategically vital area.
But what he must do is this: He must exhaust the enemy by constant harassment. He must attack constantly and from all directions. He must stage successful retreats, return to the attack, avoid encounters with the enemy that are not of his own making.
Tactics have to be changed constantly. Formations have to be independent of terrain and lines of communication. This is what is meant by being self-contained. The guerrilla never affords the enemy a target. He is bold in the attack and his great advantage is mobility…
The guerrilla’s great weapon is surprise. To achieve this surprise, intelligence must be first-class. The guerrilla must know everything about the enemy and his battle order, his strength and his weakness, even his plans for anti-guerrilla activities. Good intelligence breeds good moral. And for the guerrilla, morale is everything. It is this morale that gives the guerrilla his determination and daring.
Once the fight is joined, it must be carried out relentlessly and to the bitter end. The road may be long, the sacrifices great, but if the guerrilla has this endurance and the will to win, he cannot be defeated.”
Yes, tbe DEA is another problematic agency. I wonder if we can ever get to the point where we debate their very existence especially with GOP pols...
A good strategy for dealing with these guys might be to focus one’s efforts on not generating noise (leaving that to leadership in the House and Senate), minimizing the impact of ill-conceived proggy policies through the courts and through conscious choices to not support the sh*t show, and compensating as best we can for the crap we can’t do anything about (so store food and do any home insulation projects now, knowing energy costs are bound to increase if they Green New Deal us).
Stick together, go to church, hunker down, and pay off your mortgages.
We have plenty to do in times like these without doing stupid lone wolf nonsense. This too shall pass, y’know, like that gas station taco!
Oscar Goodman beat All of his cases representing the mob by proving FBI Corruption and Entrapment.
Me too
A few years ago I went through something really bonkers. I’d had a rough start in life and I probably looked like a likely patsy to someone who hated a Republican politician. I was trailed around by a lookalike of this politician, the news coverage of this guy started echoing things I might say, I was also followed around by the cliche big black helicopter (particularly weird when you are trail riding on a mountain bike in the woods). I felt like I must be nuts, so I hung out around other people every chance I got to see if they saw what I was seeing. They did, and they called the cops. The insane bullcrap ended pretty soon after that, and I never spoke of it because I didn’t want to look crazy. I say this because someone went seriously over the line with me and I imagine that if anything, things have gotten worse.
Making friends with people who disagree with you can also help, because if they witness weird nonsense, its probably not something they are meant to see. Deplorables are being defamed left right and center, so witnessing janky psi-op stuff might be more easily dismissed as politically motivated batshittery than if a moderate or (gasp!) progressive sees it too.
Good luck all, these are not good people, remember that you are good people.

PGalt referred me there. I have cross posted stuff and had some success getting on the main page.
It’s like a feather in your cap if you manage to get noticed
I have no doubt that they went after the TEA Party as well but never found a sucker who’d take their bait.
LOL! glowies. U and RF do good work, whiskers.
Family from Appalachia . The joke has always been if you show up to a Klan rally and there are 20 people, 18 are from tether FBI. (You only have 2 stupid people who want to belong.)
That’s a good one I think i’ve heard it before.. not sure where
You caught the frog (== fake Pepe) reference. :-)
I know some decent cops that frequently state “Never talk to cops (on or off duty) and NEVER EVER talk to the Feds. Anything and Everything you say WILL be used against you, whether its with the intentions you said it or not.”
FBI=Gestapo
Do you have any confidence in any damned thing FBI?
I sure as hell do not.
: ) I had Pepe (grandkids look-alike stuffed toy) in my backseat when I went to D.C. on the 6th. with my MAGA hat. I think Pepe still back there.
