America’s New Way of War

America's Old Way of War

The Mercian Way of War has had two bedrock givens since the Battle of Bunker Hill. 

1. Our boys die.

2. They get stationed Over There, including in enemy lands like Iraq & Afghanistan. 

That paradigm held firm from the Civil War through the recent Forever Wars.

World Wars I & II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and especially the Afghan and Iraq Wars retained two grim realities: new-entrants-to-Arlington and barracks-that-can-be-blown-up.

The Forever War on Terror is seared into our memories: the Green Zone, the Insurgency, IEDs. Far too many American warriors lost legs, arms, faces and eyes to those Iranian bombs. Public judgment about war was permanently tainted by such horrific memories.

This is no surprise—previous doctrine tolerated some level of meat-grinder.

(Memo to Generals: Don't ever bring DJT a meat-grinder plan. It won't go well for you.)

America's New Way of War

The GOAT POTUS has a different paradigm.

The Trump Way of War is precisely the opposite of those two givens. 

First and most importantly: none of our men or women die when things go as planned—as they do for DJT. Also critically important: No Americans get stationed in enemy territory.

That first point isn't a guarantee, of course. Some will die in any major operation. In fact, some heroes already have in Epic Fury—several from a damnable got-through, others from accidents. Those numbers are both too high and historically low—shockingly low.

The GOAT POTUS has held to this unprecedented standard of perfection through five full years as POTUS, delivering an unprecedented streak of huge victories in the process:

• DJT & Raizin Caine destroyed ISIS after ISIS beheaded dozens on a beach and were knocking on the door of Baghdad—while we still had troops stationed there.

• He turned the ISIS leader al-Baghdadi into a little bitch. Don't cry, Baghdadi.

• He took out Iran's terror general Soleimani with a death-from-above spinning-knife. This badass extraordinaire move was a strategic win and huge setback for the IslamoNazis.

• And then, in the past year—the first of America's new Golden Age, with zero KIAs—

  • He executed the most immaculate strategic bombing mission ever in Operation Midnight Hammer.

  • He followed up that masterpiece with the complex snatch & grab of the Venezuelan Dictator and his evil wife. American boots were briefly on the ground.

None of these historic victories involved any American warrior stationed on enemy territory.

The Trump Way of War is Veni, Vidi, Vici—not Veni, Vidi, Mansi.

The Trump Way is I came, I saw, I conquered—not I came, I saw, I stayed.

For those of us in the America First Movement, it's hard not to become jaded at the golden perfection of it all. Opposite us, Trump's deranged detractors root for his eventual failure—or at least a slip-up. GET TRUMP is their prime directive, so American KIAs advance their mission, a calumny about which they have no shame.

The Trump Way of War: Next Level

Iran is a next-level challenge, however—a vast country on the far side of the world that's been waging war on America and the West for half a century now. The Ayatollahs have robbed the Persians and other Iranian peoples to pay for a ginormous arsenal of missiles, drones, attack boats, mini-subs, mines, atomic-bombs, surrogates in Gaza, Lebanon & Yemen, and other tools of apocalypse. The Great Western Allies dealt them setbacks along the way, but fully defeating the Iranian Islamists is TBD, and is arguably World War III.

The Islamists could strike back—are striking back—albeit at soft targets in previously non-combatant countries, plus at civilian and holy sites in Israel. God forbid they achieve a mass-casualty event on American forces. The New Way of War would instantly and horribly revert to the Old Way of War. However, that is unlikely to happen—not least because the first three weeks of the war have gone exceptionally well, historically well, crushingly well.

The Trump Way of War is America's New Way of War

It demands exceptional strategic insight at the POTUS level, crystal-clear goals, and sterling leadership from the Commander-in-Chief, Secretary of State, Secretary of War, generals, and admirals. It requires a comprehensive military arsenal—including Space Force, AI-powered planning and control, game-changing weapons platforms, massive scale, and a combined force of motivated volunteers. All of this—and more—is present and fully accounted for in Operation Epic Fury.

The opening air war is already won. The energy and street wars begin soon. The former will likely involve lightning ground operations at Kharg Island and around the Strait of Hormuz. The latter must be indigenous, led by the Iranian people themselves. Godspeed to all—but especially to our warriors waging the largest example yet of America's New Way of War.
