The fog of war British American phrase
The fog of war (German: Nebel des Krieges) is the uncertainty experienced by participants in military operations regarding situational awareness.
The strategic objective of a two-state solution is once again obscured by the fog of war.
He claims that the fog of war clouded the judgment of everyone.
The Prussian military analyst Carl von Clausewitz introduced the word "fog" (German: Nebel), but not the exact phrase, in reference to "uncertainty in war," in his posthumously published book, Vom Kriege (1832), the English translation of which was published as On War (1873).
It has been pointed out that von Clausewitz does not use the precise phrase "fog of war," and also uses several similar metaphors, such as "twilight" and "moonlight," to describe a "lack of clarity."[3] In a book entitled The Fog of War by Sir Lonsdale Augustus Hale, the first known use of the precise phrase in the text dates to 1896, where it is described as "the state of ignorance in which commanders with regard to the true strength and position, not only of their enemies, but also of their friends, they often find themselves."
