Law Enforcement: Four Washington State Officers Killed in Ambush, Police Seek Ex-con Maurice Clemmons

   Rest in peace to the fallen. The thing I am hearing on all the forums, is the reinforcement of the idea of always face the entrance, when sitting in a public establishment. And if you can get all the way to the back, with a wall and an exit near you, that would be […]

Law Enforcement: Civilian Response to Active Shooter Situations, From a Police Officer

   This is a great post from New American Truth, and thanks to Matt for sending me this one.  This goes back to the best counter to a super empowered individual wishing to do bad–and that is a super empowered individual who has the mindset and tools for stopping this type of individual.  An active […]

Building Snowmobiles: The Attack By Fire and the Super-empowered Individual

“It’s a schemer who put you where you are. You were a schemer. You had plans. Look where it got you. I just did what I do best-I took your plan and turned it on itself. Look what I have done to this city with a few drums of gas and a couple bullets. Nobody […]

Israel: Gaza Webcam, Traps and Trickery, and the PR War

    All of this is developing, but we are definitely getting a picture of what modern day urban warfare really means.  This is a fascinating study, and these articles(4 total) give us a glimpse as to what is going with this.

Books: The Mission, The Men, and Me, by Pete Blaber

   Yes, another winner of a book by one of America’s elite.  I guess by now the readers of Feral Jundi are noticing a trend with my book selections.  I look for books written by those that have been there and done that, and are considered to be the best warriors in the world. The members […]

Tactical Thought Process: Tunnel Warfare, Cu Chi, and today’s Hamas

     50 kilometers of tunnels?  Boy, that is an interesting factor for the ground campaign for Israel.  Obviously Hamas has been studying tunnels and preparing the battlefield.  And like what this great little article talks about, Hamas has learned what they can from Hezbollah and their experiences and they are ready to go.
