There has to be a internet copy out there...Does anybody have one?

[EJR914]

I haven't found one yet, but this book just came out.  The Author Joseph P. Martino posts over at Mental Militia.  I think you should buy the book so at least he makes some money off of it.  I think he deserves that much for all the research and time he has put into this amazing book.

When asked about his credentials to even write such a book, he says this. 

A fair question.

I'm a retired Air Force colonel. I wasn't a flyer. I spent all my time in research & development. After I finished my PhD in Statistics, I was immediately assigned to the R&D Field Unit in Bangkok, where I spent the next couple of years doing operations research on the insurgencies in Thailand and Vietnam. After my return to the States, I spent the next five years as Chairman of the Special Warfare Working Group of the Military Operations Research Society.

That was the end of my "official" involvement with insurgency, rebellion, etc., but I continued to pursue the topic on my own. I published articles in a number of places, including what was then the AIR UNIVERSITY REVIEW, and I gave several papers at the regular Vietnam Symposia held at U. Texas at Lubbock, home of one of the biggest Vietnam archives in the world.

In the '90s I put the issue of insurgency aside and wrote a book applying Just War Doctrine to the use of nuclear weapons. It's now out of print, and with the demise of the Soviet Union, out of date as well.

By the late 1990s I came to realize that insurgency was becoming a more important topic than nuclear weapons, so I went back to my earlier interest. I thought I saw a need for a book that addressed the topic from the "other side," that is, from the insurgents' side, not from the side of the counterinsurgent, which had been my previous focus. I figured there were lots of places in the world where an insurgency would be justified, and such a book  might be helpful.

I probably should add that I have never fired a shot in anger (although I came close the night I awoke to find an intruder in my bedroom). I've done a lot of research on what other people have experienced in carrying out revolutions, and tried to summarize their experience in my book. I hope the summary will be useful to those who need it.

Haven't found one yet either,  I'll probably end up dropping the $15 on it.

Here's another one I came across while looking,

Mike Vanderboegh gave the book fairly good praise over at his website as well.

If I may comment on this, here is the formula of the Founders with a dollop of Michael Collins and a Twenty-First Century 4th Generation Warfare twist:

Government oppression is met by passive resistance, a refusal to obey. This refusal makes the tyrants initially irritated and eventually crazy enough to escalate to the next level -- you WILL do what we say or we will kill YOU. Then we continue until they do. After they cross the line, we respond by evading the arms, legs and sinews of their tyrannical beast, and striking directly at the heart, eyes and brains of the monster.

This way requires stoic patience. It requires brilliant planning. It requires trained competence at the art and science of war. It requires the tools to execute all of those things. And most importantly, it requires the moral purpose and indomitable will to bring it about.

A simple read of Martino's book cannot give the present-day armed citizen everything he or she needs to provide the sword and the shield against tyranny that the Founders envisioned, but it is a pretty darn good good primer to defending and restoring their Republic.

I highly recommend this excellent primer on resistance to tyranny.

Good post, Veritas.  I found that free copy a couple years again and read it.  Genius. 

If you haven't looked at his other books, you should.  Just look up Jefferson Mack.  He's a badass.  Anything he writes is amazing.

Check out some of his books on counter-intelligence and False Flag Operations, ect.  He's got quite a few books out.  Most can be found online for free.  I'll go through my book marks, find them, and post them here.

Jefferson Mack has also written:

Running a Ring of Spies: Spycarft, Black Operations
The Safe House: Setting Up and Running Your Own Sanctuary
Underground Railroad: Practical Advice for Finding Passengers, Getting them to safety, and staying one stead ahead of the tyrants
Secret Freedom Fighter: Fighting Tyranny Without Terrorizing the Innocent

I think there are a lot more, that's all I can find right now.  I'll look for links to free copies if they exists.

Yup, even though I had a internet version of Lights Out, I purchased the book last year when it was released.

I just got a copy of Martino's book last week.  I'm about a third of the way through it and took a break to post here.


Buy this book.  You'll be glad you did.

You know some may question a topic such as this on a website dedicated to survival, especially when resistance to tyranny often leads to the opposite of survival, but I believe, and I know most of you do as well, that liberty is more important than mere survival.

My biggest fear isn't a WROL situation, but a tyrannical government, especially one who thinks what it's doing is "for the greater good".
