What We Can Learn: Kazakhstan

[Ex313]

This is a blog written by a guy I know from Twitter. Joe Dolio (@DolioJ) is a retired Marine MP. Pretty interesting guy to talk to.
I also have a copy of his book, "Baseline Training Manual".

Joe's got a theory that society anywhere can collapse within 72 hours.
He's laying out the situation in Kazakhstan and what it means to us here.
Have a read. Bookmark his site.

The first lesson to learn is that this situation completely bears out my 72-hour theory. On the morning of the 3rd, Kazakhstan was a peaceful modern nation, with full utilities, internet, cell phone providers, the whole deal. By the end of the 6th, 72 hours later, the government had resigned, the internet was shut down, utilities were intermittent, law and order was non-existent, large parts of every major city were burning, there was open warfare, and soldiers were pouring into the country from Russia, Armenia, and Belarus.

It prob be a lot worse lol sans the outside military action but youd def have UN try to "protect the nukes" but once that cell service and internet go this place would light up faster than a gasoline covered pile of matches

If you cut communications that would definitely slow down reaction times. But you could do worse if you dont have food. Food supply cut would be worse.

Whatever the Country that has a “…Stan” at the end of its name, people living over there, they’re not afraid of nothing.

Too bad we don’t have that in the US full name. So, that is that!

I always wondered how they got their names.

"-Stan" means "land of"
Kazakhstan, the land of Kazakhs.
Tadjikistan, the land of Tadjiks
Etc, etc

The "shoot to kill" order from the guv didn't help matters any...

Failed Color revolution, like what CIA did in Ukraine, Libya, Morocco, Syria.

At this point, with journalists so badly compromised and nobody with integrity having enough weight to tell truth to power, it has become downright impossible to understand the meaning of these events.

We're in a high tech version of the Dark Ages.
