I have read this tract, and keep it in my library. It provides a frank discussion regarding nonmilitary and even nonconfrontational methods of creating circumstances whereby power may be leveraged away from the United States.
These methods are not by definition nonviolent, and the internationally nonconfrontational posture of the campaign serves as a shield, as the warfare is being conducted during a time of de facto international military peace.
Its brilliant, there is no denying that. Those PLA officers were first rate strategists using real world tactics.
I've been reading it and using it as a thumb rule for about a year now, and it seems to be right on the nail every time.
I wonder how Al Qaeda came to possess it?
