Attached is the ASSESSING REVOLUTIONARY AND INSURGENT STRATEGIES manual. Might be a neat thing to download to a flash drive.

Enjoy.

Did this place send some strange file to my laptop?

If you need a second magazine, its time to call in air support.

Because its contents would be valuable in a "grid down" scenario also, I looked at simply printing the whole thing out to gain a "hard copy", readable sans electricity in day or candlelight.
Lotta pages though.   Will do if necessary, Staples has another $60 ink cartridge with my name on it and paper is still "cheap".
Any place to send for printed version?

Download it to a thumb-drive and have Staples print it.  ;D

Nemo, Black & White, a couple of cents a page.

I had a sales presentation completed around 95 + pages in B&W and around 20 pages in color (Bar graphs + title page) and it was around $50-. The best part, I did not have to do it.

Many of us here are too old to be "operators", even with training, current or past.    But on a chess board, movement isn't necessarily required to hold and perhaps project power.

Downloaded to thumb drive, taken to Staples and given the royal treatment - color, binding, covers - probably much the same as a government issue.   Yes, more expensive than an extra black ink cartridge and paper on the home printer.    But this particular distillation of experience and thought seemed more worthy of top drawer than homemade. 

I think it will take many sessions to absorb salient items in this tomb.    Even wonder if the hoi polloi is supposed to _have this_!!!

Go figure... a government publication available to people who may one day organise against and resist that government.
Teething on the IRAs experience, tactics, etc... this is a full course meal.   In digestion, your results might vary.   But hard copy such as I have now, it can be picked up and read even if I'm no longer around.
Thank you JM for posting the link.

Im a fan of the spiral wire binding, so that it lays flat or folded in half without destroying a book type binding.  Any SOI should be wire spiral bound for this reason, 3 ring binder as a second choice.

Prepping to weather electrical, supply chain, RofL collapse is one thing.
Rebuilding out of ashes another thing.
- 5th generation warfare currently being conducted against the American poor and middle class almost certainly _will_ destroy much culture and base of resistance in the large part.   
That's when the Great Reset meets the Rule of Unintended consequences.    It'll put Godzilla vs. Mothra in the shade.
Remember 1) there are more of us than there are of them, 2) greed and perfidy backed by incompetence do not make for lasting foundations, 3) it's OK to call yourself a "Connect the Dots Specialist" next time somebody thinks they're counting coup with the old "Conspiracy Theory Nutcase".

What worries me most at present, is the number of us still asleep at the switch... and even if beginning to stir and look up at what's going on around them, the cards are busily being stacked against them.   With AI enabling the most efficient application of censorship and propaganda.    Yes, we have lots of ammo stockpiled, many do.   None of it being used in extremis yet.   Truly, I think it's like Claire Wolfe said, "America is at that awkward stage; it's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards." (1995)

Here is excerpt from article in "The Burning Platform" speaking of the CIA/Administrative State and their war on us.
We truly are in a difficult, "inbetween" state. 

 "Veronica :  How would you de-fund them?

Dr. Robert Malone: Okay. I don?t know the answer, but yet it has happened. The Stasi was taken down. The starting point has to be the American people coming to the conclusion that they?ve had enough. I can?t see anything happening without a preponderance of force of will on the part of the citizenry and that is part of the problem?

This is why I argue about fifth-generation warfare. That?s why I think the fifth-generation warfare threat is so important. The technology for manipulation of information and thought is so comprehensive now. Fifth-generation warfare that was developed for offshore combat, has been deployed against the citizenry. This means that the whole concept of personal sovereignty and autonomy of individual citizens in an electorate is obsolete.

How can you, as a citizen of the United States, effectively come to independent conclusions about what?s right or wrong, or how the government should or should not be behaving if you are subjected on a daily basis to this advanced technology of nudging and information control and censorship, control of narrative, government cooperating with press, cooperating with social media, so that every single thing you encounter is manipulated to support the agenda and the narrative of whoever the dominant force is that is propagating this. How can you come to any autonomous conclusion about what should be done?

IMO, we are just one big drama away from SHTF...Maybe, TEOTWAWKI

Big Drama = Pearl Harbor, 9/11, high level government assassination, national bank holiday, etc. which will result in Martial Law- Article II, Section 2, Clause 1.

1/3 of the citizenry will comply to what ever they are told.
1/3 of the citizenry will sit back on the fence, complying & not complying, to see what will happen.
1/3 of the citizenry will say "no", and fight back.

Bottom-line, the corruption in our government is so vast and imbedded not unlike 4th stage cancer; something has to change.

"Bottom-line, the corruption in our government is so vast and imbedded not unlike 4th stage cancer; something has to change."

Much of my outlook(s) is informed, cross-checked, confirmed/denied, by constant perusal of "comments" where a forum is provided following an opinion piece or news item.  We goes to war with the army we got, so to speak.  And I'm keen to know who is in the trench with me, who is in the trench opposing me and who is likely to try and remain "neutral", who is likely to be an "informer".

Over and over I see folks saying things like, "We need to do this", "they ought to do that"... and of course the needs and oughts are genuine, mostly on target.   
 But none of it comes to fruition.
Nor will any of it.   Until.    Until the 4th stage cancers that hold us in their deadly thrall are either eliminated by an outside force or collapse from internal failure, their own intrinsic, inbred lethality.
Our guesstimates of scale, flavor and timing of such force or failure all assume that "what can't go on forever, won't".
It's obvious every poster on UP knows their history.   Just as obvious we share the maxim that history repeats.
What I hope we all share is the true ability (and luck) to survive this upcoming "4th Turning" and the aftermath of reestablishing some kind of order.  Getting to wake up and breath a new morning's air is only one blessing.   Those who make it through this coming trial will be blessed with opportunities to teach, share, restore what we've held dear.   The fact that many of us are beyond our "best used by" date in years only means a deficit of stamina.  And a lot more pain.   But like they say, pain doesn't really hurt -unless you let it.
Should arrive any day now, my order of a copy: "The Fourth Turning Is Here: What the Seasons of History Tell Us about How and When This Crisis Will End".
Anybody else already have this book?   Read it?

I do not have a copy. I got mine from the local library. Several times actually.

Just my opinion...When you get it jump ahead to the winter of 2025. The first 3/4 of the book is a history throughout millennium proving the authors point.

Another thing is to read Isiah from the Old Testament. A good thing to help you through Isiah is Enduring Word. The challenge with Isiah is that he fluxgates between the present, past, and future.
