Fighting the Fight We Are In

December 11, 2018

By Ajit Maan

“Narratives are essential in mobilizing local actions to defeat violent extremists. Some leaders laugh nervously at this concept, and dismiss it with arrogant waves of the hand. Misperceptions about narrative and story as somehow being a squishy and un-warrior-like action to be out-sourced, are putting us at a severe disadvantage. It is one thing to get a narrative wrong. It is worse not to consider it a part of the campaign when your enemy is already kicking your ass with it.”

One way to lose an unconventional war is to address it conventionally. In fact, when we have won a kinetic victory and taken back territory, as we have against ISIS in Iraq and Syria, but have not won the war, we have done something worse than not winning. We have driven our adversaries underground, across borders, and left them with only the irregular weapons that they use better than we do. Now we have to fight in a domain that they dominate.

"Fighting the Fight We Are In"

The "fight we are in" doesn't have ANYTHING to do with what's happening in Iraq, Syria, etc.

It's about the struggle that is going on RIGHT HERE in the home nations of The West.

Until the people of The West come to comprehend this, along with who "the enemy" really is, we are destined... to lose.

That's about it...
