Oh, I have no doubt of the efficacy of asymetric warfare. Now, we have societies, "worn down," as you have written, via, this plague. Deliberate or accidental might be a decent question now? Trump has not expanded US troop actions, but has reduced it, instead, unlike Obama and Bush 43. Trump has said such endevors making the US suckers. This is also why the shift in troops from Germany, where the locals have always resented ' Das Ami," to Poland, where a barrier against Putin is helpful to both. My opinions regarding Jihadists and their supporters is no welcome thing to this wee, email list. Another distraction to the pursuit of physics and maths.

The nominee is villified and the opposition wants to pack the courts (add additional members to ensure a constant win for their team), and this is all a domestic thing with the US. The Putin thing, the democrats here have tried and miserbly failed for 5 years, the Obama administrations attempt to by using his own agents in the US department of Justice, the FBI, the CIA, to first undermine Orange's candidacy and then tried for impeachment. The Crossfire Hurricane Conspiracy. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/16/us/politics/crossfire-hurricane-trump-russia-fbi-mueller-investigation.htmlErdogan may cause a back-reaction (optical physics!!!) via his proxy war with Armenia v Azerbaijan (Turkey v Russia?) and the wants to stir up things with Israel? Xi, is the big threat,* though the EU doesn't see it this way, as Xi seeks what seems to be a true hegemony, meaning, no win-win. For somebody who dismissed Corona/Wuhan, Trump has funded the greatest vaccine search in human history and we are now seeing 3rd level mass trials testing it out-so let us hope! I do think that it is Vanity that causes some people not to use masks, and if ego is a sin, Orange Man caught that bug long ago. Also, Kurds have not been wiped out by Turkey yet, as predicted by "experts." The physics of politics seem much more complex than the physics of the cosmos. *China has surged ahead with the installation of first strike hypersonic missiles, which the US is now playing catch up. No win-win with Xi's CP. :-(https://www.newsweek.com/china-hypersonic-missile-weapons-worried-u-s-arms-race-military-pentagon-1447681 We have been down this road so many times. There have been bomber gaps and missile gaps and now hypersonic gaps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybSzoLCCX-Y Really war is taking a very different shape and it is more about social friction and the wearing down of societies. I suspect we may have all the most advanced military technology possible and find we are eaten alive by termites from within. If nothing else, the western world is being out populated. After all, Al Queda was low tech and they took advantage of a vulnerability. This forced the US to spend trillions of dollars on fruitless wars. In effect, they won.
