The Mercenary Patriot

Synopsis:
Civil conflict , overt or covert , is a precondition for the
existence of the Mercenary Patriot .
Discussion :
1.Definitions :
1.1 See Appendix A
Note that a person is either a mercenary or a patriot under
normal conditions of a unitary , consensus state .
The two are mutually exclusive .
1.2 If there is serious civil disagreement , you can have
Patriot(1) , Patriot(2) , … ,
Although they might label each other traitor or foreigner .
1.3 Mercenary remains unitary to himself .
1.4 Thus , Mercenary Patriot(1) ,
Mercenary Patriot(2) , etc can exist , all sincerely believing they are
patriots even while they are destroying their country .
1.5 There is no size of numbers qualification .
One person can declare himself Patriot(n+1) open to contract
work .
A Mercenary Patriot(n+1) hangs up his shingle .
2. The Disaster of combining Mercenary and Patriotic :
Mercenary and Patriotic armies in pure forms have done most
of the fighting in history .
2.1 After combining the mercenary usually corrupts the
patriot .
A telling example :
“By 1907 Redl had become head of the counter-intelligence
branch of the Intelligence Bureau. Promoted to the rank of colonel, Redl
greatly improved the methods used by the Austro-Hungarian counter-espionage
service,”
At the same time he was the Russians’ chief spy
.
“Redl was paid well by the Tsarist government
for his services,”
“his actions were responsible for the deaths of
half a million of his countrymen.[6]”
“Assessment
Historians of the Habsburg Empire,
as well as espionage historians such as CIA's Allen Dulles and Soviet General Mikhail Milstein, agree in
calling Redl an arch-traitor.[9]
In the political post-mortem one Hungarian newspaper
noted that "the Redl affair cannot be seen as a private matter. Redl is
not an individual but a system. Whilst soldiers elsewhere are taught to love
their homelands, lack of patriotism is held to be the greatest military virtue
in this unfortunate monarchy. With us military education culminates in all
national feeling being driven out of our soldiers... In the Redl affair this
spirit has had its revenge. The Austrian and the Hungarian soldiers possess no
fatherland; they only have a war lord."
2.2 Civil War
The Mercenary meme corrupt patriots into various flavors of
patriots .
Present examples are Edward Snowden or any employee who
feels justified to sell confidential information “for the good of the country”
.
This rapidly escalates . See
2.3 Significant armed forces gravitate to the Private Sector
(Contractors)
See Appendix B for the largest US force under unified
command outside political control .
Other states show the same tendency .
The Government police and security forces move to the
private sector for better pay .
This reduces law enforcement , which leads to more crime .
Politicians don’t want to raise taxes to pay for more police
, so more private security is employed at ever higher salaries .
You can see where this goes .
You end up with a small , weak badly trained police and a
large , well trained and effective private security apparatus .
Like South Africa .
2.4 Justice .
The same thing . Private Judges (Arbiters) , Imams , Pastors
, etc settle disputes quickly and cheaply .
3. The State has lost control of the monopoly on armed force
.
4. Mercenary Patriots are forerunners of Revolutionary
storms to come .

What's the difference between a patriot, and a
mercenary? Both are fighting for the same cause. On the outside, they look
identical. But there's a huge difference on the inside. The patriot is giving
all of himself to fight for something he deems more important than his personal
comfort. The mercenary is fighting in order to win some personal comfort. He's
fighting for whatever the offered 'prize' is, and if the effort exceeds what he
deems the prize is worth, he's out of there.
