#lodestar is a very odd word. Not found in the bible. Not used by politicians, journalists or scientists. Not related to the more popular "lodestone" and easily searchable in its singularity. The perfect psyops false flag to put in an anonymous op ed. Let the games begin.
I would suggest that it is actually an indication that the author is a lawyer. "Lodestar" is a method for a court to award reasonable attorney fees.
Analytic software can predict the education and type of person that may have written it. I would save the effort. Logic and history would dictate that anyone that publishes a high profile "anonymous" oped in the New York Times...does not wish to remain anonymous for long.
I claim dibs on the Anonymous Administration OpEd Generator App. atrixnet.com/bs-generator.h…

Al-Saif Al-Ajrab. Arab bodyguards have a really bad habit of using low grade steroids to bulk up. When I left Libya one of my bodyguards asked to bring horse steroids. It also shrinks their balls to the size of raisins. alaraby.co.uk/english/news/2…

1979 was a pivotal year in history. Iran, Russia, China and Britain all began events that would take us where we are today. newsweek.com/why-1979-was-y…
A muj friend of mine in Afghanistan worked with Azzam's assistant Bin Laden and said he would only pay for transporting rockets if you were a Salafist. Saudi money created al Qaeda. Hezbi head Hek stockpiled all the weapons and money we gave him. Only fighting to get more money.
I know of at least 8 CIA missions scrubbed to get bin Laden. That does not include Khartoum's no strings offer in 96 or the Talib's 01 offer to hand him over if they could provide evidence of 9/11 collusion. In 98 Bin Laden blew up two embassies the Uganda plot was foiled)

America's war in #Afghanistan began on July 3, 1979. Yes, six months before the #Soviets invaded and long before Operation Enduring Freedom. That's four decades of winning, losing and not giving a damn when the Taliban rolled in. counterpunch.org/1998/01/15/how…
the talibs or #Taliban owe their origins to Shah Waliullah Dehlawi, who translated the Koran into Persian and the Deobandi Dar al-Ulum in Deoband in the Uttar Pradesh province of India opendemocracy.net/sayed-hassan-a…
Frustrated at the number of checkpoints run by warlords and with much of Afghanistan and Kabul destroyed by militias, In September, 1994, Mullah Mohammad Omar left the Sang-i-Hisar Madrassa in Maiwand to form a militia to oust a local warlord in the border town of Spin Boldak.

Ghani doesn't want to, and won't, meet with Prince. I was asked many times if Ghani was corrupt. No, he is not. So that is your answer. nytimes.com/2018/10/04/wor…
The CENTCOM boss that runs our army over there weighs in...you know the ones that are accountable, swear an oath of allegiance (to our country), have to clean up the mess and don't do 90 days on, 30 off at four times the day rate. Sorry no cake for Erik. taskandpurpose.com/centcom-votel-…
The Taliban has always used every aviation CIVCAS event to their advantage. Airstrikes using bad intel are probably the most corrosive violent event to U.S. support As this "al Emara" Talib news network shows. alemarahvideo.com/wp-content/upl…

Mercenary provocateur for hire Steve Bannon was testing inflammatory memes as early as 2014. The Breitbart, fake news, troll factory, Facebook, Jingoist divisive targeting tactics are popular in third world countries and also used by terrorist groups.
The 2013 paper that inspired the current targeting. Facebook users who took the "myPersonality" quiz were unwittingly handing over the data of 360 of their "friends". Stillwell refused to work for SCL so they copied his work and created Cambridge Analytica apa.org/pubs/journals/…
Friendly and Conventional: "predominantly White residents with comparatively low levels of education, wealth, economic innovation, and social tolerance. Residents of this region also tend to be politically conservative, religious, and civically engaged in their communities."
