Description

In and among the titanic battles of history, “politics by other means” has been conducted with small actions by elite troops in pursuit of limited goals. These operations were best described as “raids”. One of the oldest tactics of warfare, the raid has become now one of the most sophisticated, and in today’s fragmented world, may well comprise the primary method through which future conflicts are fought.
