Cognitive warfare is no longer science fiction \u2013 it is a fact, and anyone, whether civilians or military, is a potential target. The war for the mind is not just a clever euphemism, it is a fact and a battlefield that can be entered in various forms such as neurolinguistic programming, electronics, and chemicals. The military concept now is to treat \u201ccyber\u201d as a place, not a mission. Cyberwarfare relates to fifth-generation warfare but transcends and expands that model. NATO Allied Command defines cognitive warfare as \u201cactivities conducted in synchronization with other instruments of power to affect attitudes and behavior by influencing, protecting, or disrupting individual and group cognition to gain an advantage over an adversary.\u201d Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10 pm, pacific time) Clyde Lewis talks with military analyst and writer, Sean Patrick Hazlett about OMEGA POINT \u2013 THE ADVENT OF COGNITIVE WARFARE.
