The problem is that people seem to think that World War Three is gonna emulate World War Two.
voice-verified
The deployment of nuclear technology and nuclear weapons now would look completely different than the deployment of nuclear weapons looked in World War II, if only because we have nine nuclear capable countries right now.
voice-verified
Not to mention the fact that we have a completely different information landscape, we have a completely different political landscape, we have a whole different uh landscape for alliances and for treaties.
voice-verified
The world is very, very different than it was when World War II broke out.
voice-verified
And I think World War Three is going to be shaped by what we call proxy war.
voice-verified
What is proxy warfare?
voice-verified
Proxy warfare is when a wealthy nation state
voice-verified
Uh funds and trains and arms, conflict in a less wealthy state, uh where there's usually some sort of civil disturbance or civil fight that's already happening.
voice-verified
Much of what we've seen in the last 10 years is is proxy warfare.
voice-verified
Libya, Syria, Yemen, people argue that what we saw, even Afghanistan, Iraq, where the US was involved, was proxy warfare.
voice-verified
Israel and Iran is model proxy warfare.
voice-verified
Uh Russia and Ukraine are also models for proxy warfare.
voice-verified
Exactly right.
voice-verified
You use a intermediate nation that's still developing to decrease the capability of your primary target while you yourself can serve your own troops, your own weapons, and your own civilians against harm.
voice-verified
I want to interrupt because I think there's an order of operations here that we're getting at that isn't clear.
voice-verified
I would argue that that ignorance starts the foundation.
voice-verified
for the polarization that is then capitalized on through this information warfare landscape.
voice-verified
So I I say that because I think it's important for us to understand that your your statistics are relevant and correct.
voice-verified
Those statistics don't come first, they come after.
voice-verified
The ignorance kind of comes first, the the the willing blindness to what's happening in the world.
