Paywall, plus I've never heard of this site before.
Yes, this article is still paywalled. I'm going to remove it like I did last time you posted it.
Please don't post paywalled websites.
Here Rita, I know you love me.
"In the circumstances, it is obvious what the guerrilla's tactics must be: Politically, he must seek to aggravate such social and political dissension as exists and to raise the level of political consciousness and of revolutionary will among the people." - Robert Taber, The War of the Flea
More from Taber. Though you should really read the book:
The outbreak of the insurgency is the first step-it is a body blow that in itself inflicts severe damage on the prestige of the regime. The survival of the guerrilla force over a period of time, demonstrating the impotence of the army, continues the process.
As the guerrilla's support widens-and this will come automatically as the weakness of the government is revealed-political trouble is sure to follow, in the form of petitions, demonstrations, strikes. These in their turn will be followed by more serious developments-sabotage, terror, spreading insurrection.
In such circumstances, it will be a remarkable government that will not be driven to stern repressive measures-curfews, the suspension of civil liberties, a ban on popular assembly, illegal acts that can only deepen the popular opposition, creating a vicious circle of rebellion and repression until the economy is undermined, the social fabric torn beyond redemption, and the regime tottering on the verge of collapse.
In the end, it will be a question whether the government falls before the military is destroyed in the field, or whether the destruction of the military brings about the final deposition of the political regime. The two processes are complementary. Social and political dissolution bleeds the military, and the protracted and futile campaign in the field contributes to the process of social and political dissolution, creating what I have elsewhere called "the climate of collapse."
This is the grand strategic objective of the guerrilla: to create the "climate of collapse." It may be taken as the key to everything he does.

I'm removing your comment, not because anything is wrong with it, it's just where almost no one can see it.
It's an interesting comment. I hope you stick around.
That sounds really good. It's a good idea if you get out there and mingle and make funny or insightful comments, especially on new or sticky posts. Your handshake status lifting is dependent on getting some comment upvotes.
Be polite and respectful and avoid racebaiting or dooming or getting in fights, especially with mods. We have to have a test before joining the mod team to make sure that we have absolutely no sense of humour.
None at all :-)
You'll get your points across, you're articulate.
