THE STRATEGY OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT

We compare any type of action in which we’re engaged to a battle action simply because it works out better that way, not because there’s any shooting.

We fight on a military line used by Alexander the Great.
Alexander saw no reason to defeat a million and a half Persian troops when he could clobber Darius. This was constant to all of his strategic actions.

Alexander’s companion cavalry demonstrated conclusively and utterly the concentrated fury and force with which Alexander personally would attempt to invade the enemy leader’s bodyguard and get to him. His whole strategy was on this basis.

Now, if you ply across the boards? What name appears; it is a comparison. What name is in common Western intelligence strategy to this, over and over and over? And that is your baby.

The enemy is not in actual fighting done by the group. It sneaks himself; is sold on the idea of group, that everything is fighting on this strategy line. He just a little bit that he is critical of the individualistic character of the development of Dianetics and Scientology, but he is also possibly restrained by the maxim that you had better not make a martyr.
