We already spend billions of dollars for spy stuff, and we were surprised that Afghanistan collapsed in less then one pay period.

What we need is smarter generals/admirals.

Should be a good fit for the U.S. Army...both are getting very “woke”. See “Learn More About Our Groups” towards the bottom of the page:

> a globally federated Intelligence data fabric <

Well, since it’s globally federated, I suppose it’s worth the price.

And you can guarantee that some politicians and their close families made a mint off insider trading.

“an operating system for defense decision making and is specifically designed to connect the dots between disparate sources,” Palantir said in a statement.

Palantir said the platform will “support Army Intelligence users worldwide with a globally federated Intelligence data fabric and analytics platform spanning multiple security classifications.”

I'm not going to say that this is 100% gobbledygook, but I think it's close. These are buzzwords strung together in something that looks like a sentence. I DON'T think it's a real description of an $800M system.

As the anti-God/anti-American global socialist left have now taken over American FedGov, and the same left only has one enemy in the world, (that being Christians and American conservatives), everything from here on out is simply a taxpayer funded tool, to go after their primary enemies — Us.

But will the enemy like it when we leave it behind? We have yet to see the damage all those rifles and millions of rounds of ammo will do.

"...connect the dots between disparate sources."

Like the Pentagon and China.

Hopefully this program will do better than the last two that were installed for the Army, RECTRAC and Genosis. They are still trying to get them right after a number of years.

They called it Gotham because “Skynet” was already taken.
