NATO: The Future of War

NATO 2022 Strategic Concept

We have added a lesson about the future of war as envisioned by NATO in their latest Strategic Concept release in the Hermaðrinn (The Norse Warrior) course.

This is the latest document from NATO released 1 Jul 2022, title "NATO 2022 Strategic Concept". 

Unlike previous doctrine (2010 Strategic Concept), NATO members, controlled by the United States for the time being, are seeing the need to “significantly strengthen deterrence and defense.”

While the 2010 document named Russia a “partner,” this year's strategic framework proclaims Russia a “threat” and China a “challenge.”

You shall review both documents to get a better understanding of the direction western countries are taking, namely unprecedented war mongering in recent history, particularly in the context of western militaries having been essentially neutered. The implication for western civilization are significant.
