The article below is very interesting. I strongly suggest reading about it. While I do not agree with many points made in it, it is a well research and made work.
Quote:
Hybrid warfare has become the Frankenstein of the feild of Russia military analasis; it has taken on a life of its own and there is no obvious way to contain in.
Quote:
Unfortunately, what Russian hybrid warfare is, and how it works, varies dramatically depending on what article, report, PowerPoint brief you are reading.
Quote:
The more we have talked about it, the less we understand it as a useful concept or framework for looking at Russian actions
Quote:
The West has been terrorizing itself with specters of hybrid war to an extent that it should qualify as one of history’s better disinformation operations, even if it was wholly unintentional. The problem is most pronounced for European allies who are undergoing a modern version of America’s red scare from the 1940s and 50s.

Don't police officers wear stab-proof vests?

Won't help much against someone really... determined.
Also, they do not protect the neck for example. Nit saying that's where he got stabbed, but the spot would be the one to go for, as nasty as it sounds.

Sorry to hear this about the attack in the UK, so sad for those killed and injured. Prayers go out for those in hospitals and for the families of those who were caught up in this needless bull crap.

Training and experience (learned reflexes) can make the difference, and I tell that from experience - without that I would not be here to type today. If I had worn a vest (but why would an unsuspected private pedestrian do that...), i would not have a scar on my right hip today.

Every little difference in protection can make the decisive difference, if luck just smiles on you.

What has Germany done now!?! You guys over there are now supporting terrorism? That's what Erdogan is saying, and he means it too,lol That jackass!! On a serious note, he had said to day, that it won't be safe for Europeans to be walking the streets as long as they keep up this attitude towards Turkey! Where's Daesh when you need them to take this jerk out! Here is the link for his threat against everyone in Europe. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-tu..._medium=Social
