	Fabian Strategy - Military History Wiki
		Fabian strategy is a military strategy that seeks to buy time and wear down an enemy.
		Fabian strategy is named after Quintus Fabius Maximus, the Roman consul given the thankless task of defeating the great general of Carthage, Hannibal, in southern Italy during the Second Punic War.
		Hannibal is mentioned in the company of history's great generals, but military professionals have bestowed Fabian's name on an entire strategic doctrine.

		Fabian strategy is sometimes combined with scorched earth tactics that demand sacrifice from civilian populations.

	History
		The Fabian Society was founded in 1884 as a socialist society committed to gradual rather than revolutionary social reform.
		From the first Fabian Tract (Why are the Many Poor?) and the original Fabian Essays, published in 1889 in the wake of the Match Girls' Strike, the Society has been characterised by a passionate commitment to social justice and a belief in the progressive improvement of society.
		Fabian Society pamphlets first proposed the creation of the National Health Service in 1911, the introduction of a minimum wage in 1906, and the abolition of hereditary peers in 1917.

		Fabius' strategy may have preserved the Roman army, and assured the loyalty of allies and colonies, but it did nothing to preserve the ultimate source of Roman power-- the land (or more specifically, the farmland).
		Basically, Fabius' strategy was the equivalent of barricading oneself in the bedroom while a burglar is free to ransack the house...
		Fabius' strategy was part of the overall strategy which defeated Carthage; but Fabius did defeat Hannibal -- Hannibal's lack of success in Italy must be viewed as a major defeat, especially since he seems to have been such a talented general.

	A STRATEGY FOR THE RIGHT
		Another alternative right-wing strategy is that commonly pursued by many libertarian or conservative think tanks: that of quiet persuasion, not in the groves of academe, but in Washington, D.C., in the corridors of power.
		This sort of strategy may, of course, be personally very pleasant for the think-tankers, and may be profitable in cushy jobs and contracts from the government.
		And so the proper strategy for the right wing must be what we can call "right-wing populism": exciting, dynamic, tough, and confrontational, rousing, and inspiring not only the exploited masses, but the often shell-shocked right-wing intellectual cadre as well.

		Fabians were never enthusiastic over this class-conflict view, probably because most of them were bourgeoisie, but Lenin and Stalin accepted it wholeheartedly.
		Fabians are, according to their own symbolism, wolves in sheep’s clothing, and that explains why their style is more effective in countries where parliamentary traditions are well established and where people expect to have a voice in their own political destiny.
		The Fabian game plan is to become the preeminent force in the world through economic and military dominance, particularly in the Middle East where that region’s vast oil reserves constitutes an extra prize.

		It is startling that the earliest (1883) Fabian society was called, "The Fellowship of the New Life," a group holding particularly to Utopian ideals and consisting of apostate evangelicals.
		The term "Fabian" itself was chosen because it stood for slow and patient conquest.
		Thus a Fabian (slow and patient) scheme is suspected that begins at least in the 1600s with Newton's circle of friends, but found languishing in the 1800s so that a long-term projection was set for the year 2000, at which point the next phase of the scheme should be introduced: the Satanic Millennium.
