"What Is An Act Of War?"
The definition of an "act of war" is intentionally vague. The old saying that "war never changes" is challenged as technology becomes increasingly complex. Cyber attacks can render physical infrastructure useless and Artificial Intelligence confuses people every day--how do we redefine "acts of war" in our modern era? Is the United States already in the midst of a "Cold Civil War"?
In this episode, Brandon and Zach discuss the concept of an act of war and how it is currently defined. They explore the process of declaring war and the role of the United Nations in international conflicts. The guys also delve into the "Authorization for Use of Military Force" and the "War Powers Resolution".
Furthermore, they emphasize the importance of deterrence and what the United States' role is as a global superpower. Additionally, they outline the eight preconditions for the use of deadly force and discuss cyber attacks on national critical infrastructure. This part of the conversation focuses on ransomware attacks, the impact of the "Colonial Pipeline" attack, appropriate responses to cyber attacks, probing and cyber attacks as acts of war, national preparedness for cyber attacks and national infrastructure disruptions.
Brandon & Zach use the "Stuxnet" worm attack on Iran as an example for how physically destructive cyber attacks can be and exhibit Chinese spyware on US military laptops as a reason the US Military needs to practice better self-preservation. This part of the conversation explores the topics of nation-state espionage, vulnerabilities in cybersecurity, and the need for defining acts of war in cyberspace. The guys also discuss the SolarWinds ransomware attack within the US Government and the potential impact of AI in warfare.
Zach and Brandon discuss "Rules of Engagement" and the "Use of Force", as well as the restrictions on social media use in the military. They discuss concerns about the use of TikTok and its potential impact on national security. The conversation then shifts to the concept of a "Cold Civil War" in the United States, where the two major political parties are at odds with each other while the American people are used as pawns. Lastly, they emphasize the importance of being prepared and the need to "Fortify all Fronts" in order to be ready for any situation.
