From Shakespeare's Henry V is: "For when lenity and cruelty play for a kingdom, the gentler gamester is the soonest winner." King Henry to his soldiers emphasizes mercy as the more effective way to achieve victory.

I grew up with Harriet Tubman as a hero.
As a grown up in Special Ops, she remained one.
Her story has much to teach SOF & Us
As an Elder looking back and forward,
Harriet Tubman will always be a hero to me
Peace, Praying, for that & Democracy

just one year ago, The Economist magazine declared the U.S. economy "the envy of the world", in its cover story (Oct 19th 2024)

in that story, the subtitle was literally, "and this will likely continue"

then the election happened, and in the 10 months since the new administration took office ... ?
“The worst view of current economic conditions since 1951… 61% blame Trump… 79% of independents have a negative view of Trump’s economic policies… if these numbers hold Republicans can wave adios to the house, and maybe the senate…”

The more they talk about Zohran, the stronger the progressive movement becomes. What Fox News and the GOP are doing mirrors the media’s accidental boost of Trump in 2015: they amplify the very voice they want silenced. Their outrage doesn’t harm our cause, it fuels it.

Here's a very good article on why we have our Special Ops Forces size. And they mention the leadership mistake of leaning to heavily on us. We're excellent problem solvers but it takes all of us to win, IMHO.

Why Does America Have 70,000 Special Forces Troops?
Special operations forces offer an attractive package to policymakers: they are relatively cheap, with a small footprint, the allure of deniability, and—most crucially—a low political cost.
