“Well, look, if we’re talking about the forms and methods of warfare changing, then yes, today the main emphasis on the battlefield has shifted to unmanned aviation. At the same time, thinking that artillery is extinct or that tanks—still needed on the battlefield—are obsolete… But tank offensives with entire tank armies? No. The tactics of warfare have completely changed, because a tank worth millions can now be destroyed by a drone that costs $500.

Behind every war is economics. If a state can’t economically sustain the war, it automatically loses. So we can’t respond to a missile worth millions with missiles that also cost millions.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Hope to see you all asap.
