note: Ideas are a motivating factor in insurgent violence. Insurgencies gather recruits and amass popular support through ideological appeal. Recruits are often young men suffering from frustrated hopes and unable to improve their lot in life. The insurgent group provides them identity, purpose, and community in addition to physical, economic, and psychological security. The movement’s ideology explains its followers’ tribulations and provides a course of action to remedy those ills. The most powerful ideologies tap latent, emotive concerns of the populace, such as the desire for justice, religious beliefs, or liberation from foreign occupation. Ideology provides a prism, including a vocabulary and analytical categories, through which the situation is assessed. Thus ideology can shape the movement’s organization and operational methods. – Counterinsurgency manual (Final Draft – June 2006)

A lazy Sunday entry. I often feel guilty about this type of list, considering how utterly conventional the content and form are. I suppose one can take the form and invert it inside out and give it free form- up to you interpretation. Or not. Lay back, lit up a ciggy and let it play. The music will explains itself. I never really understand how they all works anyway, specially how it all relate to extreme events as of late. Maybe we need to pull that inner oracle in all of us again to whisper a hint what all those means.
