yeah, the thracians were extremely good horse archers too, which was the most important type of brigade in pre-gunpowder armies, fast moving and lethal, the tradition from which they relate still lives on in mongolia and afghanistan too
i think the modern war happens almost entirely within software and media though, the physical stuff is becoming less and less important, since winning hearts and minds has an extra benefit of less property destruction, so the net cost of it can be higher due to the lesser loss
but at the same time, instead we get Breitbart and Ian Murdoch and John Mcaffee and similar cases... the really effective liberators of information technology have been assassinated and gulaged left right and center... assange, snowden, and our Ross
they are the new heroes of world war 3
not the world war three that einstein, with his pea brain could conceive (he was an ok physicist but he didn't discover relativity, there, i said it. Meleva > Albert.
