In all great struggles for the fate of a nation or people, whether it is a reactionary or revolutionary struggle, there movement seeking change must have two separate but interdependent arms, that is, the ?political? and the martial. A political ideology without the means to implement it is not much more than an intellectual exercise or a suggestion; a violent movement without a ?political? arm is not much more than a criminal gang.
A resistance movement must have two well-developed "arms" with which to attack the enemy and turn the enemy's efforts against him. A weightlifter risks injury if his body is not equally developed, and a man with only one arm is at a severe disadvantage in a fight. Likewise, these two arms must work in concert to advance the cause. Both arms have to put forth everything in a bench press, or one side is overloaded and the lift fails. Likewise, a martial artist's arms need to work together to grapple, to deflect, to strike, and to block.
The two arms need to be balanced in strength and used in a cooperative manner, or that bar is coming down on your head.
The "martial" arm is fairly straightforward, and consists, for the sake of simplicity, of that wing conducting covert and direct actions. The "political" arm might not seem so straightforward. First, let's define "political" and "politics".
?Politics? from Wikipedia-
Politics (from Greek politikos "of, for, or relating to citizens") as a term is generally applied to the art or science of running governmental or state affairs, including behavior within civil governments, but also applies to institutions, fields, and special interest groups such as the corporate, academic, and religious segments of society. It consists of "social relations involving authority or power" and to the methods and tactics used to formulate and apply policy.

You must both have a political and a martial wing to your operations, that do not overtly show any connection, but are covertly tied together, and are working towards the same goal. Without the political or without the martial arm, you are just swimming in circles. Don't be that fish with just one fin. For success, for survival, you must have both, a political and a martial wing. If you don't have a plan together, or know which side you will help out, you're way behind the curve when SHTF. Have a plan, study it, know it, and when WROL comes, execute it. You may be surprised by the results. [URL=http://www.smileyvault.co
