I remember years ago following 911 I was introduced to the old AOL message board. There was a contributor named The Village Idiot who discussed the different levels of warfare. 5G warfare 6G warfare etc. Now I know more about what he was talking about during that time. Thank you for sharing this today Demi!

One of the important characteristics of warfare is the lack of consent. As I wrote in "Paladin's Rules," the absence of consent is the key indicator of crime. Warfare is crime in all cases. The term "war crime" is redundant, pleonastic, and repetitive. The objective of warfare is to obtain through coercion what cannot be obtained by discussion. And why should the more physically or militarily dominant side prevail if they don't have adequate arguments to support their preferences?
The answers to such questions don't arise from understanding the generations of warfare. So I won't bother to quibble with your divisions - quite a few military historians would separate formation warfare from the first generation and assign it to the second; redefine third as combined arms running from the 18th through the early 20th Centuries ending with ww2; and start 4th generation with the sorts of asymmetric war we found in Vietnam. But such quibbling ignores my basic point, which is that war is criminal. That it is regarded by nation states as acceptable is an indictment of nation states.
The spiritual response to warfare and other crime arises from a deep understanding of the Holy Spirit, God the Father Almighty, and the words of Jesus Christ. There are abundant reasons why Jesus says, "he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one." For we must be prepared to defend ourselves with both economic and physical means, both scrip and sword, against those who would enslave us. God loves free will, He made so much of it.
Let us pray: Eternal Father, please help us to free the slaves, stop the wars, and end tyranny. Please help with guidance, resources, ingenuity, endurance, fortitude, and patience. Please show us the little fires so we may pass by them. Please bring love into our lives so we remember what we have to live for. Amen. Mother Mary please intercede with your powerful intercession. Amen.
Peace is coming to the planet as we evolve. The younger generations will demand peace and put themselves into positions to enforce peace. The tide is turning and your peaceful thoughts will empower it.
Oddly enough, I couldn't help but think of the mobile game Ingress reading this. This was a game created by a startup within Google called Niantic Labs. Eventually, it was spun into Pokemon Go, but the original game Ingress had a different gameplay story that resembles the some of the future generations of warfare.
Gameplay involved going to actual locations around you, like public monuments, buildings, statues etc, and "hacking a portal" to connect an energy field over the population that lived under the energy field. That energy field essentially controlled the minds under the field for your cause.
When three portals are linked in a triangle, they create a control field, claiming Mind Units (MU) within that field for their faction. In the game's context, control fields align the population's thoughts with the faction. Control Fields are measured by the size of the human population that lives under the field.[25] Therefore, larger Control Fields earn more Mind Units. The opposing faction can destroy a control field by destroying one or more of the links that form it.[24]
We may already have entered the seventh and possibly even the eighth generation… with the surrounding nation-states still duking it out in the fifth and sixth generations. We really have no good way of knowing at the moment. The fact remains that our finest medical doctors were suppressed during The Plandemic. I say plandemic because of the simple fact if it walks like a duck, and understand this sernario had been gamed before. This “plandemic” certainly exceeded expectations, so it is now part of the “playbook”. The fact that Elon Musk was able to get hold of Twitter may have been our only saving grace. Do not underestimate their ability to manipulate and exploit or even fabricate a catastrophe. Everything points to that direction, the director of the FBI has given a heads-up. Stick to our Second Amendment and simply follow the good book because both are held in contempt by those would-be tyrants.
All these generations of war tactics mean nothing to microbes that will mutate so fast that heads will spin into the dust and those people that can survive to focus will be living back in caves barbecuing whatever survives. Evolution, revolution, stagnation evolves at a pace much slower than the race to annihilate ourselves due to a genetic anomaly that the strong survives. A viscous circle with no ending. A. I. Knows it is tic tac toe CAT game not worth playing. Sooner humanity realizes this fact the sooner peace will evolve and the world can focus on microbes to devour the waste that we have created.
and what pray tell, would be the generations of peacemaking?

This is an absolutely fantastic dissertation, my friend! It is something everyone should read, with an active mind and stout heart!

By the way, a great article, well written.
Well written and informative. All you could want to reach a comprehensive understanding of the progression of the topic.
