As Brian Handwerk says: “Geography has played a critical role in military epics”.
About the article, I think it is a precise and concerning reflection about geography. It has many arguments to relate physical features, weather and navigation to physical and cultural problems nowadays. An example it is the Iraq’s war. About the nature of Iraq’s conflict, geography represents a kind of resource and consequence at the same time. What is more, there are technologies such as GPS systems used to get better visibility in the battlefield when storms interrupt the operations.
To me, geography has evolve with new technologies. The problem could be to use this resource to do evil, but I am sure it has many other uses, like the National Geographic does with it.
