LEARNING FROM THE RUSSIAN CASE STUDY (revolutions)
It’s very difficult to envision this ‘mutiny’ succeeding, but we can still learn a few lessons if it doesn’t.
We have repeatedly organized more than 25,000 men, the same number as Prigozhin, and that’s less than the 11-15,000 by Isis during their rapid capture and raids.
Revolutions are very easy to start, and very difficult to stop.
In Anglo tradition, revolutions require changing the law – and the courts, the people, and Congress do the rest. We don’t need to chop off heads, because we operate by rule of law, not rule by man.
The USA is not any more complex than any other government in its vulnerability to large numbers of revolutionaries.
Because of our geography and fragility, we are more vulnerable to revolution than other countries.
To avoid all bloodshed, only 2M men are needed to issue demands for moral reforms for the benefit of the people.
Because action against those numbers is impossible without justifying the revolutionaries.
I’ve done a relatively peaceful revolution.
America is heading for an unpeaceful one.
Unless cooler heads organize a peaceful one.
So lessons are worth learning.
