It would be easy enough to starve out the cities.

Food is actually the biggest advantage of the rural community.

Actually, the rural areas would hold most of the cards. Oil pipelines, power lines and in some states aquaducts pass through rural areas and would be easy to cut off. The cities would be hellholes without food, water, power and sanitation.

Additionally, the rural population is much more self-sufficient and able to deal with adversity (witness Katrina).

That is the reality of an armed revolution in this country. You must understand that the Left is not concerned with establishing communism as much as it is with simply destroying the existing order. If civil war breaks out in this country, the international communist community will step in on the side of the liberals. Every enemy we now know will align with the Left because their goals and the Left's are the same: destroy the United States as it exists. What they envision replacing it may vary, but the first step is to neutralize what already IS.

A rush to revolution would be suicide.

However, if the coming battle also includes the world's conservatives on OUR side, the outcome might not be so cut and dried. So our global goal at this point should be to make allies internationally, as well as solidifying the conservative cause domestically. And by "allies," I mean those defined by ideological, not geographical, borders.

Thanks for the ping, Quix!

My neighbors and I are a minority which has the majority hopelessly surrounded, no matter where we are.

This has got to be one of the kookiest and craziest, stupidest and vilest articles posted here, including all of the obvious tin-foil hat stuff.

Do you really think people have the energy and viciousness to go out hunting for their fellow citizens? Isn't there something shameful in the very idea?

The Balkan Wars of the 1990s were a continuation of conflicts that went back at three generations and sometimes much longer. They had their roots in long-term civilizational divisions.

If you think America has reached that point or will any time soon, there's something wrong with you.

A lot of the country folks would starve as most only have a few days worth of groceries . They don't garden or raise their own food .

Warning, though... if you start reading them you won’t be able to put them down!

Ain't that the truth. Bought the first two at a gun show. Didn't get squat done for three days, and they were the only sunny spring days in a month of rain.

If you DON'T think America is careening madly towards that point you're blind or stupid.

Oh yes, and the Federal forces will definitely try to seize the Hoover Dam.

They will seize anything where the density of wealth is high enough.

is the roll of WMDs in a civil war

Better also consider this ... while the US is in the middle of a civil war the other world powers (Russia / China / EU) will definitely move to secure any long term strategi goals that they have been blocked from picking up. They may also include nuclear strikes against the US.

A hot civil war would be the perfect time to detonate terror nukes in DC, NYC, LA and other high value countervalue targets.

"detonate terror nukes in DC, NYC, LA and other high value countervalue targets."

I don't see much of a problem with those targets.

The critical resource that you can't live without is water. I can see a govt. attempting to re-control seceded states in the independent minded west by controlling the water.

Good point which is why you want to ensure access to well water.

Especially when you consider that you can blame the attack on one of the other combatants in the civil war. So the set off a bio weapon in the middle of DC and plant enough evidence at the scene to make it look like a lab in Texas made the weapon. So Obama or whoever it is in charge after the attack sends the army into Texas. Something tells me the Texans are unlikely to greet Obama's legions with open arms. The entire Southwest goes up in flames in a cycle of massacre and revenge.

Meanwhile the Neo Soviet armies roll into Ukraine and Poland and nobody can do a thing about it.

Have you seen this post #87 here?

I think it is a worthy alert.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/religion/2509442/posts?page=87#87

Posting here for all to see if these things come to pass soon as described...

These are events that will soon come that will signal your departure from this earth, My Beloved:

* I am taking Billy Graham home.

* War will soon erupt upon and all around Israel. She will be wounded, but not destroyed. But, all around her, whoever has cursed her from the house of Esau will be destroyed. Lebanon, Syria, Iran and others nations that have poked Me in the eye will experience the wrath of nuclear fire and destruction.

* If the President your nation has elected does not repent and change, I will continue to judge the United States concerning the attempts he has made to give up and divide My land and force Israel to divide Jerusalem. If He continues, I will divide America right down the middle. If he continues to put economic pressure on Israel, I will further collapse the economy of America. If he keeps encouraging and allowing terrorism to flourish, I will allow terrorism to destroy and wreak havoc in America. It is one hundred to one: I will see to it that one hundred times more comes upon America for what Israel experiences in this realm. I will judge America a thousand to one concerning any land that is taken from Israel and Jerusalem, just as it happened when you forced My people from their homes in Gaza and I responded with Hurricane Katrina. For every settler that has been or will be forced from their homes in Judea and Samaria, I will require one thousand homes in America to lose their homes. Since you forced Israel to “freeze” construction of homes, you housing markets have been “frozen” to the same degree – only a thousand homes to one.

* Concerning Iran: If America does not join in Israel in a preemptive attack upon Iran and Israel has to go it alone, America will experience nuclear attack through terrorism. You must attack with Israel now, or you will be attacked.

* Concerning sexual sin, homosexuality, pornography, abortion , molestation of children, and witchcraft in America: I will tolerate it no longer. A new sexually transmitted and incurable disease will bring rapid and painful death to many. It is coming. There will be no cure.Those that promote and murder children, I will see to it that YOUR children are murdered. Those that abuse and molest My children, I will see to it that YOUR children suffer the same for all of eternity. They will be chained to you forever as you burn in the hottest fires of hell. You will burn together. Those that have performed the murder of My children through abortion and have supported these murders of innocent blood, you will experience the very same tortures that you inflicted upon them. It will never stop for all of eternity. Forever you will be tortured if you do not repent and turn to Me and cry out for mercy. It is only My blood that can cleanse and remove these horrible sins. Those that have enslaved the souls of children through witchcraft, sorcery, Satanic worship and sacrifice, and the occult: You will be tormented the worst of all. Forever you shall be chained to those you enslaved as you are tormented by Satan himself. I warn you: do NOT participate in these things for it will damn you souls!

* Concerning genetic manipulation and mind control though technology: This brings My wrath upon those that try to mix what I have not allowed. But, soon when the Tribulation begins, this will sweep through the earth and eternally enslave all who worship the Beast, as it is written in My Word. Those who develop and participate in this now will lose their minds in torment forever in hell. To the degree they participate in enslaving and creating mutations that I have forbidden, to that degree, they shall be mutated and tortured forever and ever.
