major contractors deny any role in vehicles’ production or presence
(WND) – The mystery of the military-style U.N. vehicles spotted being hauled along Virginia’s highways deepened on Tuesday when two major contractors denied to WND that they had any role in the vehicles’ production or presence.
WND had reported on Monday when a wave of blogs reported online that trucks painted with the United Nations logo were being moved by flatbed through Virginia.
One interested reader pointed out that the trucks likely were made in America and simply needed to be hauled to some port for shipment to customers – most likely overseas.
In fact, the online rumor-busting site Snopes said it had contacted Alpine Armoring, which reported the vehicles “seen in these photographs were purchased by the United Nations for use outside the United States.”
The explanation continued, “A number of defense industry manufacturers are based in and around Washington, D.C. (a region that includes Virginia) for obvious logistical reasons, and the representative confirmed that the trucks were ordered by the U.N. for use in locations abroad.”

The UN will be playing a major role in the US as they are now with Obama in the disgraced White Hut. If Hillary gets elected by clueless voters, it will accelerate unless state governments start fighting back.
The Congress is in a state of extreme dither.
Another blog buys into this years-old nothingburger.
And this ain’t news.
Conspiracy BS. The UN has to buy their trucks somewhere and here is a good place.
Or perhaps movie props.
Geeez, with all the competition and they are still buying made in the USA trucks, and there is something wrong with this??? This country has totally lost it!
The ones in the Virginia video are from Streit, not Alpine or BAE.
Look up Bearcat and do your own research on this issue. The Internet is handy for that sort of thing.
There are about 8 or more US manufacturers of the arious classes of MRAPs. Cheezy article that means nothing.
No, they aren’t. this has been adequately explained multiple times over multiple years and at this point anybody spreading paranoia about these is nothing more than a pathetic disgusting liar. Really people, we DO make things here and we DO ship them elsewhere, including military hardware getting non-US logos put on them before shipping. Get over it, this is actually what you WANT, US manufacturing.
Yeah, I guess if someone has his skirt blown up about these vehicles, he could just take the time to follow them and see where they end up.
Bravo!
What it isn’t made in the USA?? I looked it up earlier on another site before it was posted here.
Lets just hope it aint Bruce Jenner
Well, duh.
They are left overs from Jade Helm and they are on their way to the secret FEMA bases.
I think we could do nicely without the UN and with manufacturing trucks for a corrupted organization that pays for things with our money.
You’re not with the UN are you? Or do you slave away in the White Hut annex trolling through Conservative websites?
You’re not related to Travis McGee, are you?
I thought not.
I would say mole or judas goat.
If America kicked the UN out of New York and if America cancelled their membership, then the UN would have to pay for trucks with a dwindling supply of money. And why do they need trucks? I know. It’s to transport rapists to nations in turmoil.
How many had bullet holes in them?
