A New Challenge for the Marines

Recently a Marine Corps Times article titled:No time for coulda, woulda, shoulda on Afghanistan, top military officials sayquoted GEN Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff as saying: “There’ll be plenty of time to do [after action reports].” Yes, that time has now arrived and Congressional hearings have already started the process to investigate the “couldas, wouldas, shouldas.”

Warrior scholars at the Marine Corps University will soon become even more involved in this process. They will discover that there is a new non-lethal technology the US military could have used to quickly end the war in Afghanistan, as well as prevent future war and terrorism. This new technology, backed by extensive peer-reviewed research and battle field-tested by civilians and non-US militaries, is not secret nor classified. More importantly this brain-based technology could have been easily and rapidly deployed in Afghanistan: full operational status would have been roughly 8-9 months, and the cost would have likely been less than that of 2-3 modern fighter jets.

The US Army already has a head start on the US Marines in investigating this new technology. Colonel (Dr.) Brian Rees (US Army retired), an Afghanistan and Iraq war veteran and 2007 graduate of the US War College (USAWC), has carefully studied this approach in his USAWC Program Research Paper entitled “The Application of Strategic Stress Management in Winning the Peace.” The peer-reviewed studies cited in Col. Rees’s paper are based on the consistent, reliable results of this new approach to bring peace to war-torn areas of our planet.

One of the stated goals of Marine Corps University Strategic Plan is to: “Expand how we think and write about employing naval expeditionary power in the future operating environment. We will think more broadly, deeply, and holistically about how we will employ naval expeditionary power in the future.” The US Marines along with US Navy assistance could implement this approach as the ultimate means to employ naval expeditionary power as outlined in an article “US Navy’s Role Once War is Obsolete” published in Defence and Security Alert.

This powerful, brain-based approach is called Invincible Defense Technology (IDT). It is aptly named. The word invincible means incapable of being defeated, unconquerable. Defense means to defend and to protect. Technology is applied scientific knowledge. The goal of IDT is to prevent enemies from arising. Once IDT is properly applied, the military that properly deploys it would become invincible because there would be no enemies to fight. No enemies means no war, no terrorism, and full security, as well as happy and productive lives for everyone.

IDT involves large groups practicing the non-religious Transcendental Meditation® (TM) and the advanced TM techniques in order to harness group brain power to create a coherent field effect that influences all within its proximity. By elevating collective consciousness, people within the field effect are able to work together to find solutions to otherwise insolvable problems leading to war. An online lecture “An Important Message for All Military Leaders” by John Hagelin, a Harvard-trained Ph.D. physicist, explains in more detail how this works.

IDT is currently in various stages of deployment worldwide; however, all are not yet fully operational: see Google search on “New Solution for Latin America: Transforming Lives and Changing Nations” and a short online video “Creating Peace in Ukraine on Vimeo“).

IDT is backed by 19 peer-reviewed studies published in reputable journals that are listed in an article titled: “A Humane Approach Towards Peacewhich Dr. David Leffler co-authored with Lt. Gen. Clarence E. McKnight Jr. (U.S. Army, Ret.), Duncan Brown, Dr. Carla Brown and Arlene J. Schar. The teaser of the article states: “The first nation to permanently deploy a Preventative Wing of the Military (consisting of 10,000 – 15,000 military personnel practicing IDT twice a day) could actually become the catalyst for creating lasting world peace. The leader of such a group would likely achieve great fame and the Nobel Peace Prize for applying this human resource-based, non-lethal, and non-destructive approach” to end war in our lifetimes.

Bombing has been one of the primary war strategies used in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, as well as other conflicts for decades. Can scholars at Marine Corps University cite any peer-reviewed published studies to indicate that bombing is an effective strategy leading to lasting peace? The only study that we are aware of involved the strategic-bombing review conducted shortly after World War II. It showed that the bombing of Germany was ineffective.

US Marines pride themselves for always being first on the beaches. A Nobel Peace Prize is waiting for whomever has the courage to act first and perpetually prevent war with IDT. What an honor it would be if a graduate of Marine Corps University were to be the first leader to deploy IDT as the ultimate naval expeditionary power.
