  • Resumen

  • The Kinetic War Podcast aims to answer one very urgent question, why doesn’t American win its wars and what happened in Afghanistan? With the largest, most powerful military in the world, America spends billions if not trillions of dollars to continue these armed conflicts and what do they have to show for it? For a boots-on-the-ground, front-line explanation, the Kinetic War podcast presents David Wood, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of two books. David has covered war in Africa, the Middle East and Europe for Time Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, Newhouse News Service, the Baltimore Sun, and for six years, he was the senior military correspondent for Huffington Post. He examines why America chooses Kinetic War and the ugly dynamics of armed conflict versus the alternative of soft powers like the American economy, the culture, or the genius of information technology, that could reshape the world for all human benefit. Hosted by Paul Wood, this 10-part series is a gripping and revealing exploration of military conflicts, with insights that change what we define and believe is winnable when wars go kinetic.

    Episode 10: Phase Zero
    Oct 20 2021
    Military planners call Phase Zero the critical period before a conflict slides into kinetic war. This is the key moment when strategic errors and blindness can be avoided with immediate, practical, and low-cost actions to intervene in conflicts before they explode in violence. In this final episode of our series, David depicts successes by the US Institute of Peace employing peacekeeping mediators in Iraq, and the big challenges with funding and priorities that are affecting the hope and promise of preventing kinetic wars.

    Episode 9: Prevail or Fail
    Oct 13 2021
    David shares his observations of what war is like for individuals in combat who fight on our behalf. The people who carry what they need on their backs, coming face to face with the enemy and whose lives haven’t changed much since the Roman legions. David learned their stories by being there to listen and hear their impressions of the first major conventional battle of the US war in Afghanistan at Landing Zone Ginger on the outset of Operation Anaconda, in early March 2002. When their Sergeant Major said “you either prevail or fail”, they stepped into battle out of a feeling that they owe it to the country, an obligation as a citizen, and with respect for the idea of service to a noble ideal that is defending the nation.

    Episode 8: The Bloody Triangle Goes Quiet
    Sep 28 2021
    A glimmer of hope for an alternative to kinetic war comes in the story of an American warfighting officer in Mahmoudiyah, Iraq -- otherwise known as “the bloody triangle”. In 2007, in this most violent region, a frightening apocalyptic contagion of suicide attacks, kidnappings, and killings had created pressure for even more violence. Instead, a unique peace was built and it held. War didn’t break out again there, as it did elsewhere in Iraq. How was this peace achieved and what are the critical lessons when, as one combat commander put it: we can’t kill our way out of this. And where does the fault lie in our failure to develop practical civilian expertise in this kind of peacebuilding? Our guest, David Wood, has the story.
