More stirring the pot.

This article is dated 8-12. I did a search and nothing popped up regarding this topic.

Has anyone heard about this?

Just where does Obama’s private army fit into this scenario?

Thanks Slim!

I searched on the wrong words.

It's been discussed here. It is appalling. What he describes is a military coup d’état. I don't know why the buy wasn't drummed out of the military with a dishonorable discharge. He broke his oath to protect the Constitution.

>Just where does Obama’s private army fit into this scenario?<

Good question.

I wonder how many soldiers Obama has in his private army?

[bimboeruption]

Do you think many in the military would take up arms against their fellow citizens...us?

This article is a paranoid's take on an article by an equally paranoid military theorist in an academic journal.

The original academic journal article is a leftist fantasy about how the Tea Party becomes an insurgency and the military has to crush it.

This article is a libertarian fantasy about this journal article becoming standard US military doctrine.

I think that most would stand down if ordered to take up arms against us, the American people. After all, that is what our military are, a cross section of us, the American people.

I suspect the article itself is propaganda.

“Do you think many in the military would take up arms against their fellow citizens...us?”

Not any in the real military...but let us consider those who are currently getting promotions due to - shall we say - other things than military merit?

Those who are as mentally and morally incompetent as the liberal politicians who have quota’d these folks into promotions.

Who will these droogs suppport?

As I understand it to be, in the neighborhood of 20,000. Mostly moslum type "refugees" from Gaza, Iraq and Afghanistan, although not exclusive to those nations. Quietly living and training on various ex-military bases around the country.

The night Obama was inaugurated he signed an executive order allowing 45,000,000 to begin bringing "refugees" from Gaza here.

OWS or the Union thugs in Madison, WI are the only know groups with the who we now know the Obama Administration told local police forces to stand down against to allow them to OCCUPY.... Maybe the good Colonel is a support of Agenda 21?

[bmwcyle]

Obama and the elites will turn us over to the NWO.

I really don’t think so but I don’t get warm fuzzy feelings knowing that some of them are planning for it.

I would ask Mr. Benson why he would concentrate on a loosely organized group of Americans, the Tea Party’ that have shown no propensity for violence, and why he would ignore groups like the Black Panthers and the Nation of Islam who have clearly shown a propensity for violence. One of the most recent examples of people threatening to act outside of official channels were the threats made against George Zimmerman. Why concentrate on theoretical scenarios that have no basis in fact, when you have real-life examples to draw from?

>I suspect the article itself is propaganda.<

Why do you think that?

[wideawake]

What he describes is a military coup d’état.

What he describes is a cartoon that makes "V for Vendetta" look like a monograph by Hugh Trevor-Roper.

We needn’t worry. If Obama wins his “Homeland” brown shirts and storm troopers will have shut down the Tea Party, any conservative media, and anyone objecting to Obama’s agenda of sovietizing America will be shut up, one way or another. If Romney wins, we will be well on our way out of this depression by 2016, and Ryan will do a good job, starting in 2020. Idiot leftist, even those in the military will be more agitated than ever. The left will be absolutely rabid, with race baiters, poverty pimps, and rabble-rousers slinging hate towards everyone who doesn’t join their Occupyesque anti-culturalism.

What better way to intimidate or stir reaction.
