A New Era Of Mass Armies Approaches
BY IAN WELSH | SEPTEMBER 29, 2023
The army, or a part of it at the war college, has perked up and noticed some of the lessons of the Ukraine war, and that it’s a war that the US military could not fight. They’ve missed a lot of things, or felt they couldn’t/shouldn’t write about them, but they’ve figured some stuff out and written about them in a new report, “A Call to Action: Lessons from Ukraine for the Future Force” by Lieutenant Colonel Katie Crombe, and Professor John A. Nagle.
The entire thing is worth reading, but I’m going to pull out three of the main points. The first is that a volunteer US military can’t fight a real war.
The Russia-Ukraine War is exposing significant vulnerabilities in the Army’s strategic personnel depth and ability to withstand and replace casualties.11 Army theater medical planners may anticipate a sustained rate of roughly 3,600 casualties per day, ranging from those killed in action to those wounded in action or suffering disease or other non-battle injuries. With a 25 percent predicted replacement rate, the personnel system will require 800 new personnel each day. For context, the United States sustained about 50,000 casualties in two decades of fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. In large-scale combat operations, the United States could experience that same number of casualties in two weeks. (emphasis mine)

I wonder why the whole world is keeping silent while Palestinians are getting murdered, home demolished, trees uprooted, starving and water taken a way from them. This is an international conspiracy has been perpetrated by every Country including the United Nation. The situation in Palestine defys any and all human rights and human decency.
How long are we expecting the Palestinian to hold????

Ziyad,
While certain parties do privately gain from wars, wars are primarily fought for territory and only secondarily for dominance and exploitation. Over time, real estate is quite valuable.
The neo-colonial paradigm does not require military occupation for dominance and exploitation.

Saddam Hussein President of Iraq was the only true friend and financial supporter of the Palestinian Arab People and they hanged him for that.
Shame on Arab Governments whom are collaborating with the enemy of Islam but they will not be spared on Judgement Day.
