“Amaterji štejejo tanke, profesionalci pa kamione”
Gornji stavek je ena od najpomembnejših stvari, ki jih učijo v vsaki resni vojaški akademiji. V enem od boljših prispevkov v zahodnih MSM (main-stream-medijih) – tokrat Wall Street Journal, upokojeni ameriški general (zakaj si upajo pisati trezne članke predvsem upokojeni oficirji?) Mark T. Kimmitt, (U.S. Army brigadier general-retired, Assistant Secretary of state for political-military affairs, 2008-09) pravi naslednje:
“…dwindling stocks of leading-edge weapon systems” in NATO countries will inevitably lead to a prolonged conflict, and a longer war will in turn result in “more pressure from supporting nations, sustained inflation, less heating gas, and falling popular support.”
“This likely will mean muddling through a long war, with more casualties.”
In naprej:
“In modern high-intensity warfare, logistics is the Achilles’ heel. Good training, great tactics and brave soldiers are critical, but without weapons, food and fuel, armies grind to a halt. That may be what is happening as the battlefield becomes static and a breakthrough looks unlikely.”
