• Understand that military force is not the only, or necessarily the best, means of achieving national goals — excessive or inappropriate use of force breeds resentment and plants the seeds of future conflict.
  
  
• Attract allies to one's own side, and subtract them from an opponent's side.[/li]

• Surround the opponent with sustained ambiguity, deception, surprise, isolation, and menace; pursue multiple approaches and attacks, then switch between them and develop new thrusts faster than the opponent can cope; alternate unpredictably between the expected and unexpected, the orthodox and unorthodox, distracting moves and decisive moves, or in Sun Tzu's terminology, cheng and ch'i.
  
  
• Understand that success in conflict depends most upon people, then ideas, and least upon hardware.

Well, the problem now is that the US Military is no longer controlled by the US, it's in the hands of the globalists. So, I don't think the US public has much say in what it does anymore.
