Since time immemorial, information has been the key to battle. Whether it was scouts moving around the battlefield relaying information or satellite imagery, knowledge was a major tool in the quest for victory. Today, with the normalization of the internet, information and knowledge of limitless things are at our finger tips. While having the informational advantage could help turn the tide of battles in the past, today it can end the battle before it starts. Using social networking, an individual or group can influence the opposing side to either not fight or possibly turn on their allies. Because of this, the war being fought starts long before the first physical attack can ever be made. In the future the soldiers that fight in these new wars may come not only from the country of origin, but also of converted individuals from the opposing sides.
