Hancock Collection Episode 13
Here are some notes written to Chuck from Larry before this podcast was recorded:
We should probably use this as an example in our next talk on asymmetric warfare
Interestingly while Iran and Russia are still playing asymmetric, China is moving more towards conventional confrontation, I suppose you have seen the news of their two new huge ICBM complexes….up to this point they had sanely decided to hold their force sufficient to prevent an attack. Now, like the US and Russia, they are moving it up to a size that could do a first strike….insane but that is what they appear to be doing. At some point, they may indeed close off the South China sea and dare anyone to confront them.
What we are seeing more frequently is reflected in today’s news about the tanker attack. Which is basically the emergence of “sphere of influence” warfare, cold or hot, declared or not, covert tactics, overt tactics – which is itself a symptom of something far deeper in a behavioral sense. To rip off a title from Robert Audrey, the “territorial imperative” which drives everything from spheres of influence to our current racist phobias.

Thinking about tomorrow night’s show – historically asymmetric warfare has been used against physical invaders, especially those with a conventional weapons advantage. I think it would be interesting to compare that to its emerging use (with unconventional weapons) as an aggressive vs. defensive tactic – being applied when some power is claiming a sphere of influence far beyond its recognized territorial boundaries.
