One more for the road?
Not to pile on @deadcarl.bsky.social but I’ve gone through Boyd’s copy as well and he really, really engaged with it at a deep level. Boyd had a unique cipher he used for marginalia (which his daughter shared with me one time) and going through it was a remarkable experience.
You’re conflating legal and legitimate. Lots of overlap but not 100%.
Yes, because the lack of a formal declaration is the problem here. Not sinking the ship. That’s what we should focus on.
MCUP read my mind, restocking “Snowmobiles and Grand Ideals” just as my first box ran out! It’s the definitive John Boyd—600 pages of him in his own words that you won’t find anywhere else.

No it’s a warship. It’s a valid target. There’s no “unless it’s unarmed” or “unless it’s at an exercise” or “unless it’s in another ocean.”
A warship is a valid target. That’s the whole thing.
This whole ship discourse is ridiculous.

Shame. Lots of good ones.
It really shouldn’t have taken so long.
With Shaheds, much smaller and easier to hide, harder to stop. But do far less damage than ballistic missiles.
I am a millennial and Goldeneye was definitely my thing.
No different munitions.
Bro those guys aren't running a targeting process, it's a bunch of majors and staff NCOs in their 30s.
Most of the planning for this campaign is being done by Millennials- veterans of Goldeneye 64, Halo, and Splatoon- so they're spawn camping Iranian missile launchers.

Not a chance in hell.
"Hey Sergeant Major, we're all going to die in Iran. How many do you think will volunteer?"
"All of them, sir."
Well yes obviously. But when has that ever stopped us?
What's the matter? You want to live forever?
Yeah same.
Seriously. You want to protect something valuable? That's going to cost money. There is no fix.
"like a company" MY DUDE WHERE DOES THE CONCEPT OF STRATEGY COME FROM?
why are so many of you taking a really bad and dumb piece on maven as gospel
there's a million reasons why the US unintentionally hit a school (also entirely possible it was the IDF), "the AI had bad data and whoopsie we just took its outputs as gospel straight into the JIPTL" ain't one
Kinda?
The IDF’s problem is they stopped doing all that post-nomination analysis.
It really just nominates targets for the standard targeting process that’s been in use for decades. A lot of analysis occurs after target nomination.
"we are living through unprecedented times". bro these times have so much precedent. these are some of the most precedented times of all time.
@BustyTomBombadil Is this true?
