Analysis of US Military Power and Cyber Threats

Yemenis, barefoot and naked, until they blew up

the USS Cole and killed dozens of Americans aboard it.

They came to Yemen. They came to the then-Yemeni President Ali Abdullah

Saleh and said, "That isn't

acceptable

in my country. Welcome. But I remain

wary of you. If a barefoot Yemeni

hates you,

he makes a hand grenade or something, gets into your ship and destroys it.

What do we do? You hit him with a plane. You hit him with a missile.

An unknown man, whom we don't know, in a small boat.

A children's boat.

Hit the largest destroyer.

The means of warfare have changed. These are very new developments.

It is no longer… we no longer say America is a formidable military power.

That is over. People's awareness no longer fears America now.

Because America may now be the weakest power in these confrontations.

When facing a country like Libya, it can send 170

planes, as it did in 1986,

and attack Libya. It can blockade Libya.

It can force through resolutions

from the so-called Security Council.

By force. They blockaded Libya. They blockaded Zimbabwe.

They blockaded Sudan. They blockaded Iran. They blockaded Iraq.

They blockaded Korea. They blockaded Cuba.

These are countries we've always dealt with. But the problem now is

something new, hostile to America, has emerged. It isn't a country.

It's a virus. A virus. A computer virus.

It costs America billions, instead of hitting it with bombs and missiles.

A skilled guy can use a computer virus to strike it.

One billion, two billion, three billion, right nearby.

America itself now doesn't know what to do with aircraft carriers.

These huge planes that cost so much money, intercontinental missiles.

What is it going to do with them? It has begun talking about

cyberwarfare and virus warfare.

It began, I mean, to come to its senses, little by little. It was

stubborn and obstinate

and arrogant.

This isn't the policy that solves America's problems or the world's problems.

America must sit on equal footing with all people.

As one of them, and tell them,

"Come on, let's work this out. Humankind has become one family."

The world has become one village. The enemy is different. The confrontations are different.

The challenges are different. There is no longer any difference between one culture and another.

Or between one color and another.

Or between one religion and another, one sex and another. The enemy has become

disease. It has become the environment.

It has become

the atmosphere.

And the revolution

in engineering and genetic engineering, which is changing life.

The information revolution.

This is the policy we're using against America.

It tried ballistic missile strikes.

Planes. Assassinations. It deployed the world's strongest intelligence agencies.

It spent the most money on them.

So what happened?

The global revolution advanced and advanced until it took America to the point where it no longer thinks in terms of

أمريكا معناها ما عادش تفكر في

old armies. We no longer use old armies

or old methods of warfare.

We no longer speak of a small state and a large state in relation to this.

The state itself has come to an end.

The confrontation is now between spheres of influence.

It has moved on from confrontation between one state and another.

In the future, it will be between spheres of influence,

if they clash,

humanity will lose,

And if it cooperates, it benefits humanity.

We are creating the Maghreb space through the great Maghreb Union.

And we are creating the United Maghreb States.
