If every block in the country, USA for example, has a dozen men with fire arms, the one that doesn’t stand a chance is the military force. It’s the perfect guerrilla setup, and a general’s worst nightmare.
You can’t nuke or level every block. You can’t arrest the entire country. The “fighters” are already armed, fed, spread out, integrated and infiltrated into the military and government branches. It’s impossible to win."
Wonderfully stated, and right on the mark. The American people are the most invincible army on the planet. Every citizen needs to understand this.
Admiral Yamamoto of Imperial Japan once remarked that he "would never try to invade the United States. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass."
You said, “Every citizen needs to understand this.” That’s exactly why I chose that section and posted it. I’ll probably post it some more. Most people can’t even imagine the need to think that way much less the fact the Feds can’t win.
The whole book is extremely worthy. If you don’t have it, I strongly recommend getting it. It is the result of what he learned in eight years of economic and government calamity which began in 2001 in Argentina. Very practical knowledge. One example of a tip is to keep your precious metal investments in gold chains - bracelets or necklaces. You can clip a link off to buy something and you are not toting around a gold bar that attracts the wrong kind of attention - plus you wouldn’t get full value for the large quantity. If the US is ever in the kind of economic shape that hit that country (seems to be headed that way), this is the first book you want have handy.
“There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.” Besides Yamamoto’s interesting (and famous) quote is this true story....
Shortly after the fall of the Soviet Union, there was an international military conference held overseas....I forget where; I think it was in Europe. Anyway, this conference had the generals of many countries in attendance. During a break after one of the meetings, as the story goes, an American general asked his Russian counterpart if the Soviet Union had ever seriously considered invading the United States during the Cold War. The Russian general laughed and said, “Oh, no. You people have too many guns over there.”
