The Pentagon has a new strategy for 21st century warfare: overwhelm the enemy with high tech, "intelligent" forces. Full Spectrum Dominance will utilize drones, space weapons and cyber attacks. Covert operations are favored, invading with large armies is a thing of the past. The antiwar movement needs a new response, activists opposing killer-drones have led the way.
