Some Thoughts I Found Interesting on Guerrilla Warfare
1. Geography has historically been very important. Guerrilla movements have usually preferred regions that are not very accessible. Areas in which they are difficult to locate and the enemy can not deploy his full strength. Such areas are ideal in the organization periods.
However, the hardships go both ways.
Also, if relegated to remote areas, it is hard for the guerrillas to be effective at other than attacking remote out posts.
Geography is less important now. Technological advances have made the guerrillas easier to locate.
Urbanization has reduced the political importance of rural areas.
Guerrilla movements need bases and a steady flow of supplies.

Somewhere a True Believer is training to kill you. He is training with minimal food or water, in austere conditions, training day and night. The only thing clean on him is his weapon and he made his web gear. He doesn't worry about what workout to do - his ruck weighs what it weighs, his runs end when the enemy stops chasing him. This True Believer is not concerned about 'how hard it is;' he knows either he wins or dies. He doesn't go home at 17:00, he is home.
He knows only The Cause.
Still want to quit?
