> Project: Apache Arrow

> Reporter: Cheryl Valentine
> Priority: Major

> There has sure been lot of decent technology born from military tech, perhaps
> it's too bad that we haven't achieved such incredible technological
> breakthroughs without the actual war component. Okay so, let's discuss this
> for a moment and come to terms with this from historical and philosophical
> perspective shall we?
> If one takes the time to read Giulo Douhet's book "The Command of the Air" -
> which is still available through the University of Alabama Press published in
> 2009, ISBN: 978-0-8173-5608-8 - a re-printed from Giulio Douhet's 1929 work -
> then they will immediate see from his diary of thoughts from his work on the
> battlefield that the military technology of human conflict is alive and well,
> not only in his day - but also in our more modern era. Indeed, there is still
> more to come.
> On the bottom of page 26 the author speaks to the future of war technology as
> a "constant evolution" on a graph, and almost seems to speak of an
> inflection-point concept where the cosign wave or military technology drops
> completely and starts again with a new paradigm due to the ability of
> aircraft to move regardless of terrain in a 3D space. Remember aircraft had
> just come to the battlefield in his day and changed the face of war forever.
> Okay so I'd like to ask this question of the military planners, strategic
> thinkers, and visionaries of war technology today:
> A.) Does that graph include a de-escalation of war, such as with the
> cold-war, or a time in the future when there is no war?
> B.) It should, shouldn't it?
> That is to say will there be a future time when human wars cease to exist. I
> believe so, I truly do. Why you ask? Well, simply because *[thepiratebay
> proxy|https://complextime.com/piratebay-proxy-how-it-is-the-best-choice/]*
> logically and fundamentally they just don't make sense. Why subject your
> civilization to future wars, causing destruction, and strife of a population
> only to have that group of folks rise up in the next generation to provide
> their concept of a suitable reciprocal response? See that point.
> Just as the war game scenarios of MAD - Mutual Assured Destruction determined
> that a nuclear exchange was unthinkable and there would be no winner, one
> could ask; is there ever a winner in wartime? Really, a clear victory, no,
> not really, and victory doesn't seem to last forever. Thus, what this tells
> me is that often the best option is to not play.
> So, is not playing; the future objective of human wars? It should always be
> the objective is my belief. So, what will happen to the evolution of human
> conflict, will it evolve itself out of the game, will we rise to that
> occasion? Please consider all this and think on it.
