Military Activity

  • Long Report: Ministry of Misery

    As far as threats go, it’s one of the worst. Take a body known for competent, clever Intelligence work overseas. Add in a growing concern about lack of contact, ‘policy’ changes, and threats to life. Throw out messages that seem to imply we’re all in the firing line. This is UK political street life combining with force to takeover MI6 operational capabilities to dominate people they’d never really know.

    The many levels of deviancy could go into a book about Hell itself. The multitude of crime gangs, social disorder specialist groups, and demented ‘action’ cults in halls of residence and shared houses everywhere are a spun out map of malcontent against us. It also explains our present state, and how we got to this point.

    The past dies hard

    Seemingly, we’ve been here before. I’ve covered an internal attempt by Labour activists to turn out MI6 staff, therefore putting their lives at risk and us under threat. That was a reckless, crazy project by simple ideologues that cost The Secret Service millions in damage. “They walk in and walk out not caring,” said a staff member. It leaves hurt, anguish, and confusion.

    The present (or latest plot) is the one to catch up and takeover. Such types always assume they don’t know, that it’s a surprise. Their heads are blocked up with hate and propaganda by the time they get to it, making communication impossible in most circumstances. They also have slogans with stories to tell, which offend adult workers.

    The feeling in Universities, at a position of proximity to this by those worried for our younger folk, is grim. They look on helplessly as violence erupts and speeches totally miss the point. Their lectures are interrupted, their colleagues have their offices invaded, and libraries are brought to a standstill. ‘This is the end of academia’ is the point, but the reality is far more serious.

    Wrong place, wrong time

    In London, locals fear the boiling point of this sort of activity. They don’t want to see it happen. The image of MI6 HQ burning, or spies getting killed, or officials running for their lives isn’t wanted. “The future is better planned out, not shaken or stirred,” a Foreign Secretary once said in a closed meeting.

    The remark is apt. The antics would be a film reel if it weren’t an actual attempt to destabilise world security. There might be jokes that are appropriate for it, but Service staff are feeling different. They see their work as vital for peace and stability while the UK exists. The lack of it is a nightmare scenario.

    At the top, MI6 has an incredible remit of respect. It’s not a volunteer troupe. The long history of it has already deeply embedded a belief in its ministry. Its present efforts will stand for a long time to come. There’s hope yet.

  • Military authorities form a basis of the modern era

    The UN, the EU, and even the UK have a strategic advantage in the world. It’s the benefit of being a military authority, a structure that is no one but involves more than the ‘someone’ of mistakes of yesteryear.

    The UK is not included in the UN’s list of reasons why, but the EU involves us in its reasoning. The UN is not to the scope or size of a target for the UK, but the EU is. The EU has a will of its own that the UN will not understand, but the world is known by the UN completely.

    These are major lines in international politics that indicate the usefulness of binding ourselves together in some way to keep advantage off the agenda of known aggressors. While the enemy may or may not be a country, many help such unwieldy forces to have control over us.

    The investment of time in institutions has proved itself for benefactors over a long period. The World Wars cannot be ignored as precursors to a depth of will to catch hold of a promise of a better future. Many have tried and failed to break the world, while now we try to keep it whole.

  • US targets in Iran are precise but misunderstood

    The targeting of a school in Iran – as it’s believed to have been – isn’t understood in the West for obvious reasons. We don’t enact clearances in the same way that military juntas do in the Middle East, who destroy schools as part of victory parades or in preparation for the removal of a rival leader.

    In fact, schools are a battleground in the region. Many are setup each year to bolster the respect of a leader for charitable efforts. Although complaints are made that these are supposed to substitute for a real education, it’s said to have still become a fad amongst warring and tribal loyalists.

    The annihilation of schoolchildren isn’t a stated part of the aims of the American superpower, and it definitely isn’t legal in its own domain.

    Iranians are proud of their education and the loss is a bitterness because it seems so far removed from the actual trouble caused by their former Supreme Leader, who, while not known for indulging in school building for superficial reasons himself, didn’t dissuade from taking part in pettiness, either.

    The result of military action is to see society pockmarked in often distressing ways, reminding us that the imperfect science of leadership has results that cannot be put alongside promises, slogans, or actual outcomes. We are held to a need to keep going, but the facts of the matter are hard to bear.

  • Iran is an agitator of states

    Iran isn’t an easy state to control. The actions of Israel will not change its rhetoric. It fuels the inspiration of terror networks to attack us. The front we fight is not likely to disappear soon.

    The words of its public figures are inflamed in rage. Their words are curses for us. It’s doom and gloom for the West and otherwise death to Israel. The threat is no less because of strikes.

    Their terrorist networks will find other ways. Iran’s nuclear program is in ruins but its resolve is there. They will look to each other. Israel is safer from a nuclear strike but it’s not safe from terrorism.
