📘 Yeni kitabım Teoriden Pratiğe SAVAŞ çıktı.
Savaş artık sadece cephede değil; siyaset, teknoloji ve toplumun derinliklerinde yaşanıyor.
Bu kitap, onu anlamak için benim sahadaki deneyimlerimle teoriyi buluşturuyor.

BREAKING: Tehran claims it has received intelligence information indicating that the United States and Israel are preparing for a surprise attack on Iran.

[Foreign Policy @ForeignPolicy]

U.S. operations in Iran are rapidly depleting munitions that are reliant on materials such as tungsten that cannot be immediately replenished or easily replaced, reports FP’s @christinafei. https://t.co/OnbNbVdB85

[MonitorX @MonitorX99800]

🇺🇸🇮🇷⚡️– Bloomberg reports that U.S. has used almost its entire stock of JASSM-ER stealth cruise missiles against Iran, drawing even from reserves allocated for other operations such as a potential conflict with China.

Out of the total 2,300 before the war only arround 425 would remain globally.

[IISS News @IISS_org]

Israel’s success in developing a range of artificial-intelligence-enabled military technologies is underpinned by tie-ups with commercial entities, from Israeli start-ups to Palantir and big-tech corporations including Amazon, Google and Microsoft. These provide key enabling technologies, ranging from facial-recognition software and hardware that facilitate Israeli mass surveillance of Palestinians to commercial cloud servers used to host intercepted communications and train the Israel Defense Forces’ planned Arabic large language model.

JUST IN: You do not fire your Army Chief of Staff in the middle of a war for no reason. You fire him because of what comes next.

Pete Hegseth called General Randy George on April 2 and told him to retire immediately. The Pentagon confirmed it within hours. No reason was given. Not publicly. Not privately. A senior Army official told Fox News that Hegseth offered George nothing: no misconduct, no operational failure, no policy disagreement on the record. Just a phone call and a career ending in the middle of the most significant American combat operation in two decades.

George is the 24th general or admiral Hegseth has removed. But he is not the 24th. He is the one that matters. The Army Chief of Staff. The man whose signature sits between a president’s intent and the order that sends soldiers across a beach or into a tunnel complex. The 82nd Airborne is deploying right now. Marines from the 31st MEU are staged on the USS Tripoli. JSOC operators are at forward bases in Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Kharg Island, 90 percent of Iranian oil exports, sits 16 kilometres off a coast that someone will have to decide whether to approach. And the four-star general whose job it was to advise whether that approach should happen was removed 48 hours after Trump told the nation the war would continue for two to three more weeks.

The replacement is Vice Chief General Christopher LaNeve. He was Hegseth’s senior military aide before this appointment. The man who carried the Secretary’s briefcase now commands the Army the Secretary is reshaping. The chain of command did not break. It shortened. The distance between a television studio and a combat order just collapsed to zero intermediaries who were not personally selected by the man giving the order.

No reason was given. That is the tell. When someone is removed without explanation during a crisis, the explanation is the crisis itself. George either objected to something or was about to. The ground option. The power plant strikes. The Kharg raid. The escalation that turned a highway bridge in Karaj into rubble on the same day he was told to leave. Something in the next two weeks requires a chief who will not push back, and the Pentagon solved that problem by installing one trained as Hegseth’s aide.

A former Fox News weekend host just fired a four-star general with combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, replaced him with his own former assistant, and did it during a live war in which the next decision could put American soldiers on Iranian soil for the first time in history. No hearing was held. No misconduct cited. The Army woke up on April 3 with a new chief it did not choose, in a war it did not start, preparing for a phase the previous chief apparently could not be trusted to execute.

The question is not why George was fired. Every general in the building knows why. The question is what order is coming in the next fourteen days that required removing the one man in the chain of command who might have said no.

The war has no perimeter. The chain of command has no objectors. And the next phase has no one left to stop it.

@DindarNegis 3. Ülkeden ülkeye kullanımları değişiyor. Felsefi anlamda, yapısal anlamda ve kullanım olarak çok farklı yapılar. Bu karışıklıktan en çok rahatsız olanlar da Jandarmalar.

[Emrah Özdemir @eozdemir2002]

@DindarNegis 2. Jandarma ifadesi farklı dillerden çevrilirken özellikle programlar tarafından hatalı çevriliyor. MP ve Gendarmerie-Type Forces alanda çok tartışılan bir konu. Hatta NATO bünyesinde Provost Marshal ifadesi ve yapısı da kullanılmakta. Benzer fonsiyonları olmakla birlikte... +++

@ugur_esm İstifasının ardından Yb. olarak 6.İskoç Kraliyet P.Tb.K. olarak Verdun'da değil Belçika'da çarpışır. 1939'da Chamberlain Churchill'i aynı göreve tekrar atar. Bu dönemi nispeten başarılıdır. Gelibolu, stratejik seviyede alınan riskin başarısızlıkla sonuçlanmasıdır.

[Emrah Özdemir @eozdemir2002]

@ugur_esm Churchill ile Ali Paşa'yı karşılaştırmak haksızlık olabilir. Gelibolu'daki rolü stratejikti — seferin gerekliliğindeki ısrar ona aitti, ancak sevk ve idare amirallerin sorumluluydu. 1911–14 arasında İngiliz donanmasının modernizasyonundaki katkıları ise takdirle karşılanmıştır.
