Good demonstration of military significance of cities, and urban operations involving psychological warfare; U.S. "Democrat" v. "Republican" Elections 2022.
Political power is concentrated in urban areas (blue,) and unevenly distributed. Each 'party' represents a particular typology or more particularly labor division class. Potential for use; advanced operations.
Classic counter-insurgency (asymmetric,) wargame. Blue (a minority,) is attempting to assert total control over economic resources of Nation. Blue represents the Bureaucracy (which controls the Military, [National Socialist theory]) and controls economic, and migration (MigPol,) policies.
Red represents labor-manpower, control of land and firepower, as well as the military itself.
Red represents labor-manpower, control of land and firepower, as well as the military itself.
Blue has usurped control of Industrial Manufacturing, Medical care, and Food Production, under Defense Production Act (Federal Civil Defense,) mobilization; (which would otherwise be under Red's control.)
If open use of force comes into play, Red holds the advantage.
As long as use of force is latent, and distributed
(uneven, asymmetric,) Blue maintains advantage.
Blue may eliminate Red, by attrition over time.
If
Red can force Blue into an open-conflict, it can win. If Red continues
to allow Blue to retain the initiative, red will eventually be
eliminated.
Blue retains leadership resources of nation, by recruiting (using financial incentives,) and diverting Command & Control from the countryside into cities; while eliminating leadership of Red (countryside,) by use of Targeted Killings (network disruption,) & Clean Torture, (under AUMF counterterrorism / Patriot Act authorizations.)
Blue has overmatched Red in C&C (by abuse of
administrative discretion,) and formed separatist unconstitutional,
(Private,) Government.
To seize initiative, Red must form parallel Govt. (private security regimes,) withhold resources from cities, and force Blue into open conflict where it has tactical advantage.

"A couple other thoughts for you to consider. In our last Army After Next [AAN] War Game at the Army War College, we postulated an enemy whose objective was to quickly capture cities in the violated country in order to avoid American dominance in fire power. This game postulated war in the year 2025. If the world is urbanized, if 50 percent of the world will be living in cities by the year 2025, then wars will likely occur in urban areas. Cities are strategic centers of gravity. When cities become political symbols or become lures that we can’t avoid for some reason, they become battlegrounds. Look at the urban battlegrounds that we’ve fought on during the last few years. Every one of them was a political symbol. The truth is, in most major wars; cities are bypassed unless they are political centers or ideological lures.
The urban defender, without the initiative, loses this time advantage and the attacker, external to the city, now has time on his side. Of course the time advantage is contingent on a couple of issues. Number one, before we go into a city we must be certain that we have control of the countryside. Most large urban areas cannot survive for very long without sustenance from the surrounding area. This is particularly true in many parts of the emerging world. The second issue is psychological.
So the enemy’s retreated into the cities, and we now occupy the countryside. What do we do then? In many cities in the emerging world, the provision of basic services is tenuous even in the best of times. Therefore, the most assailable part of these urban areas is probably centered around their vulnerable infrastructures. Densely packed urban masses are easily manipulated by an information warfare campaign. We must maintain psychological dominance over the city so that all the information the citizens are getting about the situation is coming from us, not the enemy.
What’s the center of gravity of a city? The center of gravity is the population! We must find a way to control the population, and we’ve got to do it without butchering them. If we control the surrounding area, then we should be able to build a sanctuary. Creating a series of suburban safe areas into which the citizens can retreat leaves only the ruling elite and the army inside the city. Remember, what’s another characteristic of large cities in these transitional states? Not only are they hanging by tenterhooks with regard to their being able to provide basic services, but they also contain all of the essential elements of government: cultural, political, economic, military, and bureaucratic, which often is the ruling elite.
A cordon operation is exactly what the name implies. It is a loose way to control the activities of the city from outside the immediate confines of the dense urban mass. We have the technology at our command, thanks to the information age, that allows us to do that today if we choose to. Control the city from outside; establish a loose cordon; take your time; find the vulnerable points; and destroy them systematically in a discreet, surgical form of direct action. The idea of pouring divisions into an urban mass to me is not wise.
Once we’ve established the cordon, and gained control of the urban masses, we’ve won. The war is over. We own the countryside. The enemy has no initiative. We’ve contained the enemy in the city."
