Military fork A fork is a pole weapon which was used in war in Europe between the 15th and 19th centuries . Like many polearms , the military fork traces its lineage to an agricultural tool , in this case the pitchfork . Unlike a trident used for fishing , the military fork was rarely barbed and normally only consisted of two tines ( prongs ) which were straight compared to the original pitchfork . The pair of tines usually ran parallel or slightly flared . This weapon was relatively easy to use compared to a sword , which could take years to learn how to wield effectively . It was usually used in absence of a spear .

He initially played at inside right alongside Bert Hodgkinson on the outside and either Frank Jefferis , John Lewis or George Smith in the centre .

He also played in all six FA Cup matches as Saints reached the semi - finals , losing to Wolverhampton Wanderers who went on to take the cup in the final .

Management of Savagery Management of Savagery : The Most Critical Stage Through Which the Ummah Will Pass was uploaded to the Internet in 2004 by the al - Qaeda terrorist organization .

" Management of Savagery " has been translated into English and is available online . An overview is also available . Summary . Management of Savagery is an open and frank description of the need to create and manage nationalist and religious resentment and violence in order to create long - term propaganda opportunities for jihadist groups . Most notably , the author discusses the value of provoking military responses by superpowers in order to recruit and train guerilla fighters and to create martyrs . Naji suggests that a longlasting strategy of attrition will reveal fundamental weaknesses in the abilities of superpowers to defeat committed Jihadists .
