National Guard scraps plans to invade rural town

Following publicized reports that the Army National Guard was planning a military training exercise on the streets of a rural Iowa town, the commanding officers have called off the mock "invasion."

The Guard had planned a four-day urban military operation in tiny Arcadia, Iowa, population 443, sending troops to take over the town and search door-to-door for a suspected weapons dealer.

This does not upset me any longer, it is going to come.

Back in the 1990’s we had almost the same articles and our troops were training for urban warfare and we were all upset.

But NOW, we know how valuable that training was for them, as they use it 24 hours a day in Iraq.

Obama will no doubt use it for his own benefit, not ours or our troops and there isn’t a lot that will stop him and his Executive Orders.
