Long (13 tweets) and compelling string. Troy is an expert on “5th generation” warfare. The dispersal he cites is why I have said that the “head of the snake” analogy is an obsolete concept in counter-insurgency and why, for example, that our frequent “decapitation” strikes have failed to destroy foreign terrorist networks like ISIS.

🧵 1/The biggest sleight of hand pulled by “Q” was to imply the existence of a top-down hierarchy when, in fact, it was an emergent networked insurgency.

Washington and the media think in terms of org charts. Instead this was a supple, shape-shifting effort.
