Low cost wars need to have a lightening speed of response. We need realtime intelligence. Eye in the sky. Laser weapons. You can have all the missiles in the world but they are useless without realtime intelligence.That needs huge bandwidth & computing power. Very Critical assets

We always talk with pride that it is the man behind the machine that matters In low cost wars the leaders are men behind the machines Leaders getting targeted is perhaps a logical low cost option to end the war

This is a Tectonic shift in responding to low cost wars. This will be the pattern of all current and future wars Wars that donot follow rules have responses that are no holds barred Barbarism is met with Barbarism

This seems to be future trend of all low cost wars. Existential threats at others comes back like a boomerang. This way No rules apply to both. Live and let live is the way to go

Lost cost strategy to counter asymmetrical wars Low cost wars have no end. You cannot see or intercept drones & missiles flying at hypersonic speeds but it's leaders cannot move at hypersonic speeds, they are being easily tracked & eliminated You save on v. costly interceptors.

Should nations allow military bases of super powers on their soil Whichever superpower has a military base in your nation, you automatically become a legitimate targets in case of a war. It is same with all super powers. USA is better option as it has largest global alliances

When you chant death to a,b,c....x....y,...z it will also include you. Action and reaction are equal and opposite. Peaceful coexistence is the only route to long term prosperity, peace and stability.

When sales of weapons become part of economic growth, they also become the reason for world wars and human extinction. All weapons sold by a country will also some day be used against it As you sow so shall you reap

When the world watches silently , nations arm themselves, far beyond their threat perceptions it will lead to global ambitions leading to world wars or even extinction of humans. Iran and North Korea are two classic examples.
