Hacking threats to military and civil systems.

Hacking is the new threat in the military and civil world. We can say that the new threat is cyber warfare. And if we are not prepared, that thing can cause many problems. Cyber warfare itself is not a new phenomenon. The idea in that kind of warfare is that the enemy’s computers are infected with computer viruses. Or things. Like homepages that the opposite side uses for sharing information can be loaded with disinformation. 

Cyber intelligence can search for information from enemy equipment, tactics, or key personnel's positions, so that they can be targeted for special forces attacks. Hackers can also search for the positions of important installations. 

Things like energy supply systems are targets for cyber attacks. The modern military uses more and more electricity. The effective combat control systems, like radars and communication platforms, require electricity. But things like new tools, such as laser weapons and drones, also require electricity. The entire system must be protected against cyberattacks. There is a possibility that a hacker who has access to the wrong databases can simply remove those people's access to some systems. Or they can remove the data of the entire military crew. Or in some scenarios, hackers can simply report the key people, like nuclear weapon operators, as dead in an accident, into the system. 

What if the system will not allow them access to the command center?

One example of a destructive cyber attack is an attack that activates power plants' emergency shutdowns. That system can close the energy production in those systems immediately. Basically, hackers can break down things like electric networks by shutting down the main energy production units, like nuclear power plants. That thing activates auxiliary power immediately. When auxiliary power is on, the main energy production units will be activated again. 

Suppose the electric network is not protected against such a situation that causes an overload. So, that is the reason why the electricity must never be loaded onto the electric network from the generator. The other thing is that the electric networks must be based on many small platforms rather than one big central platform. If one of those systems is shut down, the effect on the entire network is smaller. Basically, in the case of a nuclear reactor, only anonymous phone calls to the control room can cause an emergency shutdown. The hacker can say that there is a logic bomb, which means a computer virus that destroys the control program immediately. So, would the reactor crew start to test if those computer viruses are really in the system? 

We have firewalls and antivirus programs. The fact is, if we want to put the computer viruses into the systems, what is needed is a reprogrammed RFID chip or some access card whose microchip is reprogrammed. That thing can transmit a small code that can open the gate to the system. In that case, the small virus will not break the system. It just opens the path to a targeted system. And in some scenarios, the hacker could use the faked VPN connection for that operation if a hacker can somehow fake the computer’s identity to match the computer that has access to the target computer and use a trusted VPN that can allow it to inject malicious code into the system. 

In hacking and computer crimes, productive thinking is the key element. If the hacker can hijack some screens, they can send fake malfunction reports. If the error level of a computer rises and the system reports a damaged hard disk, the system requires service. The attacker can simply try to put an infected hard disk in the computer center. That is one of the threats in computing. If hackers can make their own computer that has access to a targeted system, it can open the road to all data that travels through it. 

 The AI-based firewalls can protect military systems against traditional computer viruses and hackers. But the new threat is nanotechnology. The nanotechnical systems can slip into the computer rooms. They can search the microchips, and then those nanorobots can transmit data that travels through the processors to the controllers. Nanorobots can transmit data to the computers through those microcircuits. Or they can cut microchips off the microcircuits. And then start to transmit their own code to the system. The new tools require new resistance. The nanorobot, or maybe a matchbox-size drone, can travel to the cable connection and detonate itself. That thing can damage the power supply to the computer, or it can cut data communication outside the computer. The drone acts like an anti-radiation missile that can search the WLAN stations and detonate them. 

The new kamikaze quadcopter could be a game-changer. But it can also cause risk for security.

 The new kamikaze quadcopter could be a game-changer. But it can also cause risk for security. 

The new large-size anti-tank quadcopter is a tool whose abilities have not been realized yet. Aircraft or satellites can drop those kamikaze quadcopters into some operational area. And if the target for those systems is the silo-based ICBM systems. The quadcopter can wait for the silo's hatch to be open. Then those quadcopters will fly over the ICBM and detonate themselves just when the missile is firing. Anti-tank quadcopters can make holes in the submarine's hulls. 

Also, agents can carry those kamikaze quadcopters near airfields or other military bases. Then those drones will fly into the ammunition dumps or they can cause damage to radar systems or electric supply, destroy aircraft, or detonate ammunition dumps.

Artificial intelligence creates other programs. And that makes it a very powerful tool. By using freeware tools is possible to make customized software for less than 7 Euros an hour. The ChatBot type AI can operate as a development tool for creating software for robots. That allows the system to create customized software for civil and military drones. 

When we think about killer drones the system must only know the point where it should land, and then the system must not have slow-down mode. The ChatBot-type software generators can modify any drone in the world into a killer drone. When we think of killer drones. We are facing a very dangerous situation. In that situation, only one drone that is sold to the wrong hands can cause catastrophic. 

It's possible to download that control software from that drone. And then operators can load that software to any quadcopter. That means that in the wrong hands. Those systems are high-risk for national security. 

The new quadcopter-looking kamikaze drone is a good example of how cheap AI is. R&D work with that application is expensive things. But when the software is ready, it can scale all over the entirety. 

When software is developed system can download it into any tool, connected with it. The morphing neural network topology makes it possible to program one drone, and then that drone will transmit its program over the entire network. The AI-based applications can interconnect every system into one entirety.

Why researchers are so interested in laser weapons?

 Why researchers are so interested in laser weapons?  

The arm race is a race between an improved attacker and an improved defender. Things like Javelin missiles have two-stage tandem warheads that send hypersonic metal beams against the target. The improved weapons require improved counteractions. One of those counteractors is a laser weapon, which can destroy incoming missiles and ammunition over long distances. 

Laser weapons are the next-generation tools against grenades, drones, and low-flying aircraft. Laser weapons can also cut holes in the ship's hulls and the thing that makes laser weapons so interesting is simple. It gives also small-size crafts the ability to make fatal damage to large ships. 

If a laser cuts a slit in the ship's bow that kind of damage will be fatal if the ship must run at high speed. The Ukraine war has shown how difficult is to protect targets against drones. Even simple, straight-flying drones are difficult to defend. The drone itself is an easy target but when there are coming tens or hundreds of them. 

At the same time, the air defense cannot let any of them go through which means it requires lots of ammunition. And one purpose of those drones is to force the enemy to use their AA ammunition against them. The AI-based drones can take evasive actions and they are harder targets than those simple and cheap drones. 

The Ukrainian surface kamikaze drones are also effective tools. They can destroy or damage large ships. The problem is that things like Russia and terrorists notice that thing, and they wish to make their own versions of that tool. Maybe in the future, those drones also can operate underwater. That gives them the ability to attack the surface and underwater at the same time. 

The fact is that. Those drones can equipped with GPS-guided antitank missiles that can also be deadly against targets in the harbor area. And those kamikaze drones can attack against equipment loaded on the quay and then try to destroy ships. And that kind of target requires counter-weapons that can react very fast. And laser is suitable for that role. 

The only thing that limits the number of shots is the energy supply. Laser weapons are the same tools that are used in metal factories for cutting metal plates. And that means the laser systems can just cut off the wings of flying drones.  The aircraft, equipped with a laser weapon can use that weapon against incoming missiles. 

Protective laser weapons installed in high-flying platforms like stratospheric aircraft and airships can protect them against incoming missiles. The same lasers can also be used against enemy aircraft. 

Lasers are also double-used tools. The same lasers, used as weapons against aircraft and ships can be used as communication tools. The thing that changes laser from a communication tool to a weapon is the power, that the laser system uses. Lasers are tools that can protect satellites against ASAT weapons. And when people talk about laser satellites or "killer satellites", they mean satellites made to destroy other satellites. 

Lasers can offer communication and weapon tools against traditional missiles. But the arms race is a race between ultimate attackers and ultimate defenders. 

But the problem is that missiles can also equipped with microwave warheads. In those systems, the missile carries a magnetron that sends microwaves ahead of it. That kind of electromagnetic warhead can use a windmill generator as a power supply. And then in the final moment, explosives press the battery to make high-power radiation impulse. The purpose of the electromagnetic warheads is to shut down the target's computers and destroy its electric systems.

Somebody claims that even Putin himself doesn't trust his generals.

Image: Reddit

There is claiming that there are no intelligent generals in Putin's military. Intelligent people are always threat, and Putin doesn't want threats around him. He wants people who are doing what he says when he says. And that denies the use of own brains. There is a tale in Novaya Gazeta that even Russian leaders don't trust their military. Putin's leadership style follows faithfully the same style. That was in use in the tsar and Soviet armies. The top thing in the Russian command system is political trustworthiness. That means the commanders have no right to say anything against their leaders. 

That kind of attitude doesn't favor initiative people. It favors people who are not willing to take responsibility for their actions. And that is the problem with the Russian military. 

And that lack of initiative actions and thinking gives a great opportunity to "yes men" whoever think themselves. The key element to earning political trustworthiness is just to make everything and only things that superiority officers or higher ranking officers are saying. And another thing is that the officers must not update their education. 

That thing caused a terrible loss to the tsars navy in the Tsushima naval battle in 1905, where Russian officers were not prepared for the Japanese torpedo boats. And that caused the entire fleet sank by Japanese torpedoes. If things like initiative education are forbidden. That causes problems. 

Another remarkable thing in the Russian-style command is that information goes only one way. The higher-ranking officers are giving orders, and they might not even want to hear reports that something goes wrong. That means the troops might try the same thing again and again causing terrible losses. The major problem in the Russian command culture is that commanders don't want to grant their mistakes. Granting the mistake is a weakness. And that's why the Russian military can make big losses on battlefields. 

This is one of the reasons why Putin started the invasion of Ukraine. The philosophy behind this kind of decision is simple. When a decision is made nothing can change it. If Putin would change or pull that order back that is against his authority. And that cannot be accepted, in that country. 

The role of people like ministers in Russia is just to give pieces of advice to Putin. And decisions are made by Putin himself. If Putin believes his advisors that shows that he cannot do everything. That is like giving the command to that advisor. Putin's philosophy is that the henchmen's role is just to please him. If that is not clear. The henchmen must go. 

So those advisors are told Putin just what he wants to hear. And there is the possibility that some commanders are giving false reports of the attack capacity of their troops. And there is the possibility that some commanders are inflated their success. The fact is that Putin is dependent on the reports that his henchmen are giving him. 

And that makes him vulnerable. If commanders are telling lies about their success, that causes the wrong estimation of the situation. And the problem is that. The commanders would not want to lose their jobs or die because they are making mistakes. So they are giving false information to their superior officers and Putin himself. 

 And this is one of the reasons why he continues his offensive without caring about losses. Accepting the reality that the mission failed is a weakness. And the Russian masculine military cannot accept weakness. So that's why the Russian military sends more and more men to war which is one of the saddest in history. 

The mission of intelligence is to give real information for government

Kimmo Huosionmaa

In the INF-contract is one thing, what is forgotten, and that is in 2007 Vladimir Putin said, that the INF contract is against the Russian interest, and that thing is sometimes interpreted as that Russia would leave the contract, what makes this contract as the "empty paper", and if there is only one nation, what is in the circle of the contract, will that mean, that contract has no mean. There is no contract if everybody part of the paper breaks it all the time.

Real information is not always pleased the leaders of the government. But in fact, the truth always hurts.  The mission of the intelligence is to give information to the leaders of the nation, not just say, what other people want. The thing in that work is to find out, what other side don't want to tell about their plans. Sometimes the discussions between the parts of the conflict or crises are meant only for playing time for own mobilization and filling the weapon storages for military operations.

Sometimes in history, the international contracts are made for giving time to prepare for war and the most well-known case about that kind of contracts is the Munich agreement, what Hitler made with Neville Chamberlain 1938. In that agreement, Hitler promised to connect the Sudeten areas of Czechoslovakia in Germany and leave another area of that nation alone. But then he broke that contract and occupied the entire country. This was beginning the advantage, what has driven the world to the conflict, what is known as the Second World War.

And about a year later German invasion to Poland began. So the intelligence services mission is to find out this kind of plans. This kind of information about secret plans of war are not public information, and getting the authentic plans and evidence about them needs Intelligence to operate in illegal areas. The most interesting part of the job is to predict the next move, what the opposite state would do, and one thing in the dictatorships is also very remarkable.

The thing is that the head of the state would not actually even know, what is going on behind his back. Or maybe those persons just tell the lies. There have been also many other things, how the other nation would risk the national security in the United States and why not in other nations. One of them is to support and drive the "own man" to the head of the state, and then this person would kick off the military command.

And this is the thing, what every person should know. Of course, there are persons, who are using the publicity for getting what they want. The best example in history was Adolph Hitler, who was supported by media, what was controlled by the supporters of the Nazis, and the only truth, what was allowed, was the truth, what was given by the head of propaganda. And this is the thing in the Intelligence. Many times the things, what are told to the head of the state, are what the head of the state wants to hear, or what the informer wants to tell to the head of state.

Project "Code EVA" (Enhanced Vehicle Agent (or Application))

Picture I

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Space technology and its relationship with military power are very well known connection. Sometimes there have been military projects, what has very well known code names. Military uses the same vehicles with civilians, and the fact is that most of the space pilots or astronauts have been in the military service when they are made that mission. Sometimes there are many inventions, what can be used in the multipurpose role in both areas. The most innovative things, what people have ever created for science and technology is the space-suit, what is actually a man-shaped spacecraft. The official name of the space suit is actually EVA (Enhanced Vehicle Agent). That suit is equipped with micrometeor and anti-radiation protection.

That allows to make very flexible protective layers, what can be rolled, and actually, the only thing, what limits the usage of those suits on earth is their weight. That kind of protective systems can be used against weapons of mass destruction, and they can be easy to take in use, and when the operation is over, they can be removed from area easily.  Sometimes there have been plans to put man-shaped robots inside those spacesuits, and that kind of equipment would be useful in the space repairing missions.

 The remote-controlled robots can spend an extremely long time in space, and they don't need any spacecraft. That's why those robots can operate in space independently, and they can send to space by using small-scale rockets like Pegasus. The space suit protects the metal body against micro-meteors. Those robots can be used to repair or hijack satellites in the orbital trajectory. In the last case, the robot would take the wire to the satellite and it would be pulled to the returning capsule, what is actually an "lying garbage can", what can land to the ground.

But there have been plans to equip the space suits with weapons. In many pictures, there has been the camera on the shoulder or astronaut during the spacewalk, and sometimes there have been discussions to equip that thing with the MAC-10 type sub-machine gun or microwave weapon, what allows to use that suit as the weapon. Those very deadly instruments, what is installed on the spacesuits are actually known as the Enhanced Vehicle Application or EVA, what is the same thing, what is used with the normal space suit.

Sometimes there have been plans to equip military personnel with such type of weapons like small size pistols, what are installed in the helmets. Those weapons would be Derringers, what can be launched by blowing the balloon, what is pulled through the trigger protection, and that can be the very effective thing in the short distance combat. But also the high-tech versions have been tested, and one of them is small-size sub-machine gun, what is aimed with helmet pointing system, and launched with a gesture, what is given by the data gloves.

That equipment can be used inside normal gloves. And they can also use to use many more remote things, like small size robots, what are slipping in some heavily protected or polluted area. Those lego-man sized systems can fly in the target, and use similar tools with normal people. The ergonomy makes easy to control those systems and those small helpers can collect data, take samples or remove parts from microchips. So those "ant men" are very flexible tools they can fly to the target, and operate there as long as batteries have voltage. They can be controlled with virtual sets, what makes possible to use them in the field conditions. Those robots would operate with VR-glasses, where they would send the image from their CCD-cameras and the microphones and piezo-crystals send the sensation to the operator, and that person might use virtual joysticks and other things like that by using data gloves.

What means psychic soldiers?

Kimmo Huosionmaa

When people claimed, that there have been tests to use the psychic skills like telekinesis in the military operations, they mean the way to control people mind and even kill the person by using that kind of things. In real life is not evidence, that telepathy exists. There is known that some intelligence operators have trained to read body language, and see the markings of mental disorders like dementia and hate against the authorities.

The idea of that training would be that the operators notice persons, who don't like their superiorities and who is another way favorable targets for propaganda and recruitment. Those people are the most valuable targets for the recruiter of intelligence because they can give information about enemy plans and equipment. Also, psychic warriors are sometimes trained to irritate some special persons, and when those persons would start to attack because of the provocation, would that agent kill that person by using hand-to-hand combat.

If the high-rank officials would be turned against their state, that will cause the collapse of the enemy. Or in fact, the officer, who would become traitor must not be so high-rank, as we think. The thing, what might cause problems or leak in the shape of the leaking information, and of course the persons, who can be suitable targets for the recruiters. In the world of the intelligence is tested or thought about the methodology, where the skull would be covered with microchips, what will transmit the perceptions to the command centers.

But there are other things, what might be used to control people's behavior, and one of them is, that maybe those agents trained to kill with suggestion and hypnosis. Also, there are claiming, that those psychic warriors have trained to slip in the enemy production units and start to troll and make another kind of propaganda and sabotage in that workgroup. There is claiming, that some or almost every one of those operators were trained to hand-to-hand combat and soft-kill methodology like the lobotomy. Those skills are very interesting.

Swarm of drones is here and are we prepared?

Picture I

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Swarm of drones is in the key element if the world of battlefield and intelligence. Those small aerial and land-moving robots can cover very large areas, and they can be connected together with networks, what allows to connect the information, what the sensors of those vehicles send to the control center. Sometimes those small drones can carry the remote-controlled "toy cars", what can be dropped to the operational area, and those devices can look in the holes, and other places, where might be hiding people or equipment.

Some of those vehicles are equipped with small explosives like thermobaric, HEAT and thermite ammunition, what mission would be destroy enemy equipment. But there is more use for the swarm of the drones than use them as the hit weapon. The central computer can use the swarm of drones for protecting the bases against land and even the aerial attack.

Those small helicopters can have IR- and chemical sensors, and because drones are cheap, every drone might have different sensors.  The computer can use drones as the shield by moving the swarm of them to the route of attacking aircraft and helicopters when the jet motors and helicopters rotors would be suck drones thru them, and this causes damages for those vehicles.

The drones can equip with the ECM-systems, what will disturb radars, and also there could be small-sized weapons like automatic pistols and MAC-10-style-submachine guns for terminating the enemy, and this kind of devices can be very dangerous. Every person can install the winch in the drone, what would pull the trigger backward by using wire and then launch that gun.

Smallest size drones cannot carry the automatic guns would anyway also equip the derringer pistols or the outside of the drones would install rifle bullets, what are equipped with electric detonators. Those killer drones can have size about a couple of centimeters, and they can be extremely deadly, the idea of those weapons comes from the toys and the 338 caliber rifle bullet is always deadly.

Those systems can also be used in the intelligence role, and they can use the commercial routers and other devices for catching WIFI communication, and in the worst case, those drones can make "man-in middle-attack" and route the enemy communication thru it. That kind of systems can cause very big troubles if the enemy communication would be routed thru that equipment. And are we prepared for those threats?

Sometimes we must say, that those drone swarms can defend successfully by using ECM-systems, what denies the communication between drones and central computers. Those drone swarms can communicate together by using WLAN-technology, and that kind of systems are giving them the ability to share the computer power together. And that technology makes those drone-swarms more independent. In the most futuristic and terrifying visions system would equip with the ability to find the fuel for those helicopters independently.

The chemical sensors would find the hydrocarbons for the fuel cells and then drones can cut the canister open, and fill the tanks.  Drone swarms can also equip with "centers" what means drones with more powerful computer systems, and those systems can support the operations of the drones by flying with them, and the best way to defend against those systems would be EMP- or ECM weapon, what destroys the electronics and denies the communication between the individual drones.

I wait with fear when the first street gangs will attack against together by using drones. Those systems can also use for protecting the drug dealers by looking for the officials and this will cause terrible visions, how criminals can use them. They can look inside the houses, and looking for weapons and things, what they can steal. Drones can also be equipped with the microphones, and they can record every voice inside some house.

The futuristic idea of the artificial cell organism

Kimmo Huosionmaa


One silly idea came in my mind about making the advantages to the naval surface battle group. The idea is very interesting, but I'm sure that thing belongs to the category "in the distant future". But in fact, we could have the technology for that thin, what gives the carrier unit the unlimited strike capacity. The thing is that there would be sailing metal factory in the battle group and the carrier can be equipped with the 3D-printer system, what would be allowed to make the jet fighters in that unit.


The thing, that the 3D printers what handles metal and carbon fiber would not make the parts sharp enough, could be true if the persons would use the printers, what are able to buy by private persons, who have limited financial capacity. But the thing could be different if the system would have the laser, and other extremely sharp cutters, what is controlled by computers. This means that this unit can produce the entire jet fighters, from the minerals, what it can find from the bottom of the ocean. The system would use automatic robots, what are looking the ores by using laser spectroscopy and then bring those things to the surface. If the systems have the capacity to create metal wires, that thing can give unlimited firepower to the battle group.


Aircraft of the battle group would use hydrogen as the fuel, what would be separated by using electrolysis, and the weapons could be simple lasers, what would not need physical ammunition. The microchips and other electronic components would also produce in that system, what uses the ion technology in that case. This technology would allow producing nano technical microchips, what transistors would be made by using three atoms, what is working like normal transistors, but they are smaller.


The wires of the microchips would consist the lines of the single atoms, what makes them extremely small. Those systems are creating by NASA, what wants to use those machines in the explorations in our solar system and maybe in some day at the journeys to other stars. The idea of this system is given by Stanislaw Lem, when his book, "The Invincible" would the spacecraft consists the similar spacecraft, what looks like Leonardo Da Vinci's tank, but there were many different kinds of vehicles.


I sometimes thought that maybe this fictional spacecraft would be equipped with 3D printer systems, what is allowing it to make any kind of vehicle in the missions. That system uses CAM-technology, what means that 3D-CAD drawings would be driven straight to that manufacturing unit, what makes the thing immediately, when the orders are coming from the artificial intelligence. In fact, this futuristic and fictional system would consist the supercomputer, what is connected to the human brains by using EEG-implants, what would be surgically installed on the skull.


And this system would communicate with the supercomputers by using wireless application. The inorganic part of the system allows to calculate extremely fast, but the human brains would give the system the creativity, and ability to create new things. The problem with computers is that they would not have any kind of imagination or ability to create new things, and that's why this system needs two parts. The human and the machine, what gives it the productivity and ability to handle surprising situations, that cannot be predicted. And that gives the system an extremely good chance to survive in any situation, what can be imagined.

Differences with the United States and Soviet military.

https://pimeakronikka.blogspot.com/

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Cold war armies were many differences in the comparison to modern armies or military forces. The Soviet military believed the ordinary man's skills and ability to make military maneuvers. And the production of the Soviet army was the so-called general soldier, who had the ability to operate any kind of systems. Bad rumors say that the Soviet Union used the military forces also for threat, that if somebody said something against the political system, would that person called to military refreshing, where that person would be informed, that it would be wrong to criticize the political system of the Soviet Union and other communist countries. I sometimes write about communist block armies, because they are made with the same format with Soviet military forces.


The United States military forces believed in professional military force, and that have caused critics against that institution. There is claimed, that those professional military men are spending all of their life for practicing killing techniques, what makes them extremely dangerous. But the defenders of professional military forces are asking: "what else must the military men be than dangerous?". The purpose of the military is to cause fear in the mind of the enemy.


This supports the model of professional military men. And of course, the use of robots in the combat zone is supported by avoiding own losses. Robots are good warriors because they would not make anything, what operators are not allowed them to do. The robot operators would not need hand-to-hand combat skills for accomplishing their missions and that's why those persons are safer than some green berets. The loss of robots is very easy to tolerate, and nobody even notices if some drones are shot down. If the human pilot would be shot down, will all world know about it, and that person could tell something, what is classified. But robots would not know anything if they are destroyed. And that's why those systems are so high in the western military shopping lists.



 The tactics were different in both sides of the Iron curtain. Soviet tactics were simple frontal assaults where were used tanks in the massive formations and massive firepower against the enemy and that tactics were effective against more technical but outnumbered German army in the Second World war. But the problem with that tactics was great losses. United States military believed smaller groups movements by using helicopters.


The United States military was more technical and uses more complicated tactics against the enemy, but that would save men at least in the limited conflicts. The philosophy of the Soviet army was, that the men were recruited for a couple of years, and then they were released for civil works. The United States military used professional and voluntary troops, what was able to operate in the overseas situation, and those voluntary men were excellent fighters, but the problem was that they were not released for other works.


Professional soldiers lose contact with the normal life, but they are easier to send far away from home for the military actions. There are good points for supporting both sides of military training. When we are thinking about the technical stuff, what the military forces were got in the United States, the mission of that equipment is to make those forces capable of highly mobile operations, where the helicopters and aircraft would replace tanks and artillery. The problem with frontal assault tactics is the high number of own casualties, what are seen in many combats, where the communist army have taken apart.


When we are thinking about the long-term war between the nations, that would be hard to understand, that the long-term wars are the good thing only for the commanders of the armies. The problem with that kind of actions is, that the commanders would be untouchable in the long-term conflict. And this is the reason, why the United States created nuclear weapons.  Those weapons allowed to stop the conflicts very fast, and that was the reason, why also the Soviet Union made their first nuclear weapon in 1947. That weapon was worked perfect cover for Kremlin and other governments.


The user of nuclear weapons would not need very much training, and this is the reason for creating the ballistic missiles. When we are thinking about the Soviet political system, that nation would stand better in the long-term war. But the USA:s tactics was, that if the Soviet Union would crush the defense of NATO, the use of nuclear weapons would be possible. And every democratic state is talking about defense forces. Attack forces are the term, what is used for communists armies. Many things were secret in the Cold War military forces, and there were made many experiments, what are not mentioned.


But when we are talking about the military equipment or toys, we must remember the wisdom of some admiral. I don't remember was that person Jellicoe during the First World War, but the thing goes like this: "if the equipment is bad, and the ships would be sunk in the battles, it would be better to stay in the harbor". Or something like that went the philosophy of that admiral. The Soviet side was not well known about open information about military forces and in that country, and even the factories were prohibited to photograph from outside.



And that tells something about how open that nation was in the time of Cold War. Of course, AK-47 was the better concept than M-16 in the Vietnam War, and the U.S military used too many toys. But if the bombers would always send on one way trip in the war, would that also mean something. And when we are thinking about this kind of situation, that other side of the conflict would consume the conventional forces, would that drive the conflict to the point, where the use of nuclear weapons would be possible.


When we are talking about the economy and its relationship with the military, we must concern that democratic nation would not get any equipment for free. Every worker must get the salaries, and if we would think that the use of political prisoners in the production of military equipment, that would make the work cheap, but are those products actually so branded, that they could use in the real battleground.



The problem with prison work is always sabotage and the poor brand, what was one reason for the collapse of Germany in the 1940's. So every military product of German army was good on paper, but the practical apps were far away, what they should be. This is one problem with undemocratic countries. The workers have the bad motives and the equipment would be made with spoil, and that would make them even dangerous in the real situation.

Privatizing force and intelligence

https://metsantarinoita.blogspot.com/

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Privatizing force is the term, that means that the security companies are taking the role, what is traditionally reserved to the state. And the most modern version of this advantage is "private military corporation", what means the private corporation, what gives advice, gives training support and sometimes even take a part in conflicts. The last term means mercenary operations, what are targeted against enemy leaders, and those missions are called "assassination operations". But the private military companies are taking also new roles in the world of the military. That role is the private intelligence services, what are collecting information, what is marked confidential.


Private intelligence services are using the information, what is collected from surveillance cameras and other systems, what is meant for protecting houses and homes. Those corporations know everything about their targets, by collecting and analyzing data, what is collected from the surveillance, traffic control, and clock card systems, and they can break any person's security. But those private corporations have also intelligence satellites, and they sell those pictures, where the resolution is about 2-3 meters. And if we are thinking carefully, those companies are also interested about sending ELINT satellites to the orbital trajectory. One of the most effective ways to collect the information about phone calls and use of data is to route those things thru the own communication satellites.


Those satellites can copy those data to that company, while it sends those bytes forward. And that system can be used with normal RAID-routers, what can deliver all data from the telephone network to the satellite.  Of course, those corporations are interested to launch those satellites to orbit, and that's why they might be interested in co-operation with private space companies. Also, those private military companies are interested to send killer satellites to the orbital, and they might equip with rifle-caliber small weapons like centrifuge guns, what might shoot iron balls against the target, what can destroy targeted satellites.


When we are talking about those private intelligence services connected with the military business, we must understand that the private military corporations have found the new type of role in conflicts. The brand new products of those companies are cyberwarfare, and propaganda, what mission is to turn public opinion against another side of the conflict. This is the new kind of threat to the world, what has become very complicated.

The role of navies in the war against terrorism

(Picture I)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

President of Russia, Vladimir Putin has said, that the Russian navy has the great role in the war against terrorism, and this is one of the biggest roles also for other navies. Navy and it ships are in the key role in long-range over-seas operations, where those things can give tactical support for ground forces, deliver and carry equipment and rescue the crews of attack planes if they would shoot down or face the engine failure in those operations. 

In those cases, rescue crews can use naval ships as the base, where those pilots can be taken for getting medical attention and return home. The ships can also work as the safe place for own troops because the enemy cannot surprise those men while resting. But in the case of Russia the protecting the gas tubes, what deliver natural gas to Europe is one of the biggest roles of anti-terrorism troops. Also, offshore oil rigs are probably one of the most vital targets for terrorists.

Those targets must be protected extremely sharp because the systems that are used in the petrochemical industry are attractive targets for the men, who want publicity because they are causing a very prominent effect. And this is the main purpose of the terrorists. They want publicity for their work, and massive explosions guarantee that TV would follow that case. 

One of the reasons, why Putin want that there would not come any problems with the oil and gas delivery is that if Russia could guarantee that the gas deliveries can continue without problems, would that give change to export more gas to Europe, and also connect the policy of Europe more effectively the Russian energy. And that would give weapon in the hands of Russians because if they would not like European policy, they will just stop the gas exports. 

The thing what guarantees the buying of gas from Russia is the cheap price of the energy. But the price must be always paid, and if some political decision is against Russian interests, would that cause that the pressure in the tube would decrease.  And strong nuclear weapon would guarantee, that nobody would threat Russia by the military operation. Energy is a very good way to blackmail other nations for giving in to Russian interests.

Thinking about feeling and humanity

Kimmo Huosionmaa

When we are thinking about humanity and feelings, we might think that every human is always humanitarian for other people. The humanity is the reason, why our species so successful. We are defending and care our children and defend together against animals. When we are thinking deeper about humanity, we are facing the thing, that children are naturally human for together, but this way to act is missing when somebody elder person is starting to tell, that other people can be closed away from the personal life.


But when we are thinking about empathy and the ability to show emotions for other people, we are facing the situation, that some persons have no feelings at all. In some cases, the philosophers have thought that if for some humans would be made lobotomy just after they are born, the military would get the person what can be make everything, what the superiorities wanted without feelings or mercy. We might think, that we could recognize that kind of person in the real life, but that is actually very difficult if that person has been trained to play empathy and feelings.


When we are thinking about lobotomy, there is the so-called nail- or pike lobotomy, what can be done very fast, and it is capable to make those surgeries for the mass of the people. This surgery is very horrified because it can be used secrecy, and if that kind of person is young enough, there is nothing visible on the outside. But this might make that person cold, and that is what is called the "perfect soldier". In the behavior therapy, this kind of person can teach to play feelings, but everything would be played.


Empathy is bad for military officers, who must make tough decisions, and this is why there are stories of the horrifying project called MONARCH, that was begun by Gestapo, but was it continued secretly in some other countries is the question, what has ever made in public. In this case, the operators would be persons, who have made the lobotomy and then they are taught to play emotions. Those operators would have no problems to eliminate persons, who are ordered by their superiorities. They would not go angry when they are blamed in the newspapers, and that would make them very dangerous.


 In the world of the military is no need for feelings or empathy, or do you think that men like Kitchener or Von Moltke were some humanitarian people. For them, the humanity was the thing, what was shown only when it helps them to win battles. Nothing else was important. And sometimes their orders cost the lives of millions of people on the battlefields. Churchill supported democracy because it served the benefits for the United Kingdom, and nothing else was meanless.


The reason for those mass bombings against German cities was that the whole of Germany was mobilized, but the arguments were also, that the Luftwaffe bombed London and the bombardments against Germany were revenge or counteraction of those bombardments in 1940. But why they mentioned also Warzaw and Rotterdam? That sounded good in the ears of their allies, and the Polish and other eastern soldiers were the most capable in the commando-operations because they were punished by death if they were in the hands of Germans.


That would deny the surrounding of those troops. Of course, SOE (Service Operations Executive) had own version of that, what denied the surrounding. The pistols, what was given to the agents were sometimes used against the German officers, and that would cause the death penalty. The reason for terror, what Germans used in Eastern Front was that German soldiers would not talk to civilians and were not surrender to the Soviet troops. That's why the special units of the SS shot people systematically, and the corpses were left to find by Partisans.


But sometimes the NKVD made similar actions for forcing people to join partisans and after the Second World War the liberated people sent to prison camps because they were not followed the evacuation orders, what was given by NKVD. And the convictions were given by co-operation the enemies. This is one way to handle the problems, what might political resistance cause. In that case, we must remember, that humanity is only the limit for the men like Joseph Stalin. They would not care, is the evacuation order really given, or did the people get those orders. That they would not left is enough to send them to work camps and use them as free or slave labor in the massive building projects, what were necessary after the war.

Do you know, what is Firefly?

Albert Pike
I used this photo before

http://kirjabloggaus.blogspot.com/p/do-you-know-what-is-firefly.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

We all know the bug named "Firefly". This little beast uses light to call food to it, and then it would eat the innocent fly, what would not be careful enough to avoid the bite of Firefly. This is a very good methodology to get something to eat. Against this background, we must ask one question "why some very high-rank officials are openly Freemasons?


When we are thinking about the picture of Albert Pike, we must realize, that those markings, what should shew the position in Freemasons might be, that the traitors would come to tell about their plans to Pike. When we are thinking about this kind of action, where somebody plays "dirty cop" for uncovering the conspiracies, we can think the man named Trump. When Trump plays games, where he nails political enemies and shakes the boat, the reason could be that the persons, who want to break NATO would dare to play in the higher and open role in public talking.


There is one problem in NATO, and that is there are states, what are not involved in any military action against enemies of the western coalition. Those states arguments, that the military actions against some terrorists would cost the lives of their own sons, and this is the very interesting way to think. The membership of NATO brings many benefits to those countries, but in the real world, there are also things, what is difficult in the membership of coalitions. There is no coalition, what offers only benefits, and there are no solutions, what makes perfect solutions for security.


Arguments, what Trump uses are actually very interesting. He asks, why  American youngsters live is cheaper than some other Countries youngster. This is the primary problem in NATO. All coalition takes support from the nuclear power of the United States. During the Cold War, the United States got many allies, what always asks it to protect those countries, or actually, those troops protect the friendly governments, what gives support for the United States. And in the long term, this is very tiring. When you are the president of the United States, you would ever make the right decisions.


They will ever satisfy everybody. When we are looking about the position of professional military men, we must say, that those men know, where they are going, when they go to the military service. And this is actually the very uncomfortable thing because if those men are dying in their missions, there would be recruiting problems. Military forces are getting large-scale financial support when there are crises in the world and the military industry will get billions of dollars for selling weapons around the world. The fear is the good argument to buy new missile systems and aircraft.

The persons, who would serve in the military forces are getting big salaries and benefits like freedom for the university payments. And if the warfare would transfer to robots, the level of use force in the international conflicts would be lower, and that would cost human lives. The problem with the relationship between North Korea and the USA is that if Trump would deny that meeting in Singapore, would he be cover and military maniac. But when he meets Kim Jong Un he sold the principles of democracy.

What if the hypothetical conspiracy during American civil war 1861-1865 could be true?

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The thought that some generals would give military training for foreigners seems utopistic even in the 19th. century. But when we are thinking about the history of William Huntington Russell and the secret society of Skull and Bones, that kind of action would give the money to that group of undergraduate students. The Skulls and Bones-society established in 1831, and it has the very interesting building, there are no windows.

That guarantees that nobody sees, what happens inside the "Tomb" as those persons call their "clubhouse". When we are thinking about the military training of foreign soldiers, the general can make that with the rank, or as the private person, if somebody has enough money or general wants to give the training to some foreigner. 

When we are talking about the situation after the United States civil war, there were many people in Europe, who would like to pay about that military training, and maybe Russell sold that training to Germans and French, for getting money for his political dreams, what was far away from democracy. There were many persons, who believed, that Confederate was able to win the war, and even after the loss of the Confederate somebody might believe, that they could take the government under the confederation control. 

That would happen, that the Confederates would take the position of the secretaries of the government in their control. Then they must just kick off the key officers and replace them with Southern side versions. That kind of silent taking the control of the Government would the Confederate begin the legislative actions. But those thoughts are only thoughts, and there were no signs of the serious attempts to make that plan true. 

Only John Wilkes Booth named man shot president Abraham Lincoln and escaped there with his fellows. The rumors started, when Booth was shot in Virginia after he tried to escape law enforcement with the broken leg. The rumors were actually similar as in the Kennedy case, that Booth was working for somebody, who worked in the government. And maybe this man planned to escape to Europe after shooting Lincoln. 

Maybe there were some persons, who gave the training also to the foreign soldiers, and if they took money about that thing, must that money not to paid straight in those officers bank accounts. Tere must be some company, what could open the bank and give the generals permission use the safebox for messaging and payments. That thing based that this money was put in the safe box, and nobody ever thought the reason, why it was paid. But this is the speculation. Sometimes I have thought that maybe the members of the Skull and Bones were chasing information secretly in the United States civil war. 

When the members of the Skulls and Bones sold the tactical information against the allowance of sail to Europe. If they would catch from that thing, they would find themselves in the hang rope. Those secret societies were not similar in the 1860's as they are today. If we are thinking the opportunity to sell the tactical information of Lee or Grant, that could cause very big hate, if that information would be released in 1865, when the war was over. 

And that kind of playing with both cards would give very much money in the pockets of that fictional man, who would sell the information for both sides. But this is only the speculation. But when we are thinking about the connection of those happenings from 1861 to modern days, we might think the situation, that the father, who took part in this kind conspiracy would force of the children commit the crime, what must be hidden, and if that crime would be hidden, that will be the good weapon in the hands of Skulls and Bones. 

If the crime would be hard enough, the person would keep the mouth shut and would not tell a thing, what happens in their secret club, what has been told many stories, that the building companies have seen the contracts before, they sent their offer to cities. This could give many benefits for their friends, but it's prohibited in the law. If somebody would notice the price of the building site before giving own offer, that could give that person very big benefits in the markets.  And if the opponent would be getting something, what used in the blackmailing that kind of things would give that person very much money, if the opponent would be silent about that kind of contracts. 

Where are predictions coming from?

Albert Pike
(1809-1891)

http://gamesandtehories.blogspot.com/p/where-are-predictions-coming-from.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Always somebody is asking about predictions, and I have given them the explanation, that maybe some person has so sensitive nervous system, that they could observe the light, what comes from the tiny wormholes. This theory would claim, that the wormholes, what are smaller than atom or proton, could transfer photons from the past to nowadays. This explanation would not be supernatural. The supernatural explanations are not scientific, and that's why we must forget them.


Those wormholes could be forming when the antimatter particle impacts the normal particle in the front of the observer when is forming the small black hole, and if they oscillate at the same frequency than some similar black hole in the past, between those points is forming wormhole, that could transfer the picture from the past to the future or opposite way. This means that the observer in the past would see to the future by using wormholes. But there is another explanation for predictions, and that is the very natural thing. If somebody has made some plan and tells that to the opponent, would this kind of prediction become true.


This kind of prediction is suspected in the case of Albert Pike who predicted two or three World Wars.  He mentioned those things in the letter to Giuseppe Mazzini. And that has seen as the supernatural thing. But when we are thinking about the position of Albert Pike (1809-1891), we might think that he knew another man, named William Huntington Russell (1809-1881), who was the founder of Skulls and Bones. When we are looking at the history of Russell, we might notice, that this man was had also notable knowledge of military affairs, even he was not the military man.


This is the thing, what noticed the Governor of Delaware William Alfred Buckingham, who ordered Rusell set the militia of Delaware. Russell was not officially the military man, what could be made him the suitable link between the foreign military trainees and the military of the United States. And when we are thinking about Pike's predictions about the World Wars and the NSDAP (Nazi party) raise to power in Germany, we must explain those predictions, that the plan of those happens would be made under the supervision of Pike. Russell was an education scientist, who could be made the base for Nazis.


And sometimes I have thought, that did the "Iron counselor" Otto von Bismarck got the military training from the USA when he began to connect Germany, or who teach that man the ultimate tactics, what raises the German army one of the most notorious military machines, what has ever created.  When we are thinking about the predictions, what Pike made, we must say, that if they were plans, what were made in New Haven, that explanation would be natural.


When we are thinking about Pike's position as the officer of the Confederation army, we might think that the letter to Mazzini was meant for published. And Pike wanted to revenge the loss of the Confederation, would be the good explanation for that. But sometimes I have thought, that maybe Pike was the spy for Union, and he wanted to tell Mazzini, that maybe some confederate officials have fled from the USA to Europe, and this might cause troubles because those persons would commit crimes n Europe.


There is one thing about Mazzini, he had the same first name as Giuseppe Garibaldi, the famous independence fighter of Italia. So were Mazzini only the post box for Garibaldi? When we are thinking about the military skills, would some confederate officer give the training for the Italians, but when the men of Garibaldi would accept that training, must the officer show some papers that he was an officer. And maybe the money was sent to the USA, that somebody would make those checks because those confederate side officers were afraid, that they would find themselves in the hang. And if Garibaldi would trust the wrong person, will the rebellion and dream of independence in Italia be just a memory, and Habsburgs who ruled the Italia would punish all nation for the rebellion.

Flexible carbon fiber can revolutionize the protective gears

http://crisisofdemocracticstates.blogspot.com/p/new-carbon-fibers-allow-making.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Nanotechnology allows making more flexible carbon layers than ever before. And that allows producing active-carbon filters, what is feeling like normal clothes. This kind of filter-clothes can protect the user against many chemicals including VX, but they are breathing, that means those clothes would pass the air would go thru those layers, and use of those clothes is more comfortable than traditional protective suits. Those carbon suits are also immune for all chemicals what would normally pass the rubber, and that nanotechnological suit has one very good advantage in comparison with rubber suits.


They can dress up like normal overalls and they can use like every other clothes, but there is one big difference, that active carbon material protects against chemicals, and if gas mask protects the person against some chemical, would the active carbon protect also the man against some of the most poisonous chemicals. And the same technology could be used in protective tents, what mission is to protect the crew against chemical weapons. Those tents can be put in the hangars, and if the airfield would be protected against chemical weapons.


But this kind of constructions can also be used for civilian purposes. When the rescue crews are working in some area, there are lots of ruins or erupting volcanoes. That carbon material canvas can also be used for isolation the persons, who are infected by some organisms, what are using epidemic. In those protective materials is one little thing, what we must remember. There must be only carbon material, and there must not be plastic or rubber, because those materials allow the chemicals like organophosphates transferring to the body.


That can protect people against chemical weapons. But the light suit can be modular, and another suit, what is equipped with the gold leaf, can easily wear over that chemical protective suit. In the bottom of that suit could be Mylar-layer, what protects the gold against damages. That kind of suit protects the person against radio-active materials. The gold leaf can be installed between two layers of canvas, what allows to carry metal parts with it because otherwise, the gold can make other metals rusty because of the electrochemical reaction. This gold leaf suit would not let gases go thru it, and that will protect the user against ionized Helium, what is called an "Alpha-ray". Actually, the Mylar would give enough protection against helium, but the gold is needed for protection against electromagnetic radiation.


Ionized Helium would fly thru the active carbon filter, and that's why the personnel, who works with the highly radioactive material must use similar breath equipment as scuba divers. In those cases, the ionized gas would not go to the lugs of the operator. And the gold layer would protect the skin against the other radiation. That suit can be made by normal cotton or it can be used with the similar suit, what firemen use because that would give protection against the heat. And the gold is installed in the middle of two Mylar-layers, what protects it against damages.
