It is true that Afghanistan and Iraq have done much to puncture that understanding of war. The American military efforts in those countries (or so the thinking goes) have dispelled the understanding of technology-dominated warfare that was prevalent just a few years ago - the notion that modern armed conflict would be fundamentally changed in the age of computers and networks. More than just conventional wisdom, it has become almost a cliché to say that the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have proved “how technology doesn’t have a big place in any doctrine of future war,” as one security analyst told me in 2007.
