We will always be at war against Eastasia


"In accordance with the principles of doublethink it does not matter if the war is not real. For when it is, victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won, but it is meant to be continuous."

George Orwell, 1984

From Reuters:

The U.S. military on Saturday launched a five-day war game to see how space-based assets such as satellite communications and precision bomb guidance systems would fare in a hypothetical war against terrorism in 2020.

Because it will still be going on then. We're planning for it to be.

Apparently they're considering the electoral ramifications:

The game will pit friendly "blue" forces against enemy "red" forces, including state and non-state actors, some wielding weapons of mass destruction, Darnell said.
