The U.S. Army is to invest $6 million in riot equipment, a fact that has furthered fears that troops will be used inside the U.S. in order to quell any civil unrest resulting from the ongoing economic crisis.
The U.S. Army Contracting Agency, based at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, has a post on the Federal Business Opportunities website, requesting the equipment and has received several notices of interest from potential vendors.
The request titled “84–RIOT EQUIPMENT” outlines the need for hard polyethylene Shin and Chest Guards, shock absorbing Forearm Protectors, Interior leg brace supports as well as knee and ankle protectors.
The ACA asks that the equipment be able to “safely withstand a substantial blow… from non-ballistic weapons or flying debris”.
The Solicitation also states:
The associated North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code for this procurement is 453998 with a small business size standard of $6M. This requirement is a [ Small Business ] set-aside and only qualified offerors may submit bids.
Interested vendors include Irish Brigade inc., manufacturers of hunting and safety gear with facilities located in the heart of Kansas City , Missouri. Federal and Military resource company MCLEARVISION, LLC is another interested party, as is Kentucky based U. S. CAVALRY STORE, INC.
In our article yesterday we highlighted the fact that Urban warfare training drills are taking place across the country as top analysts as well as officials predict a potential “summer of rage” across Europe and America as civil unrest from the economic fallout builds.
Are such drills really for the purpose of preparing troops for foreign combat zones? Undoubtedly - but other factors indicate that the drills may very well also be aimed at preparing troops for dealing with mass civil unrest as the economic crisis worsens.
There’s no question that U.S. authorities have been closely observing riots that have toppled governments in Iceland and Latvia and also threatened to do so in several other European countries. The fact that they have contingency plans in place to deal with such scenarios should they unfold in America cannot be disputed.
Indeed, before a media exposé forced them into a denial, Northcom revealed that one of the duties of at least 20,000 active duty troops that are being placed inside the United States would be dealing with “civil unrest and crowd control”.
The U.S. Army War College in November released a white paper called Known Unknowns: Unconventional ‘Strategic Shocks’ in Defense Strategy Development. The report warned that the military must be prepared for a “violent, strategic dislocation inside the United States,” which could be provoked by “unforeseen economic collapse,” “purposeful domestic resistance,” “pervasive public health emergencies” or “loss of functioning political and legal order.” The “widespread civil violence,” the document said, “would force the defense establishment to reorient priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order and human security.”

====================================================
TELL US, MR CRIM, WHICH OF THE ABOVE FOLKS ARE YOU CLASSIFYING AS TINFOIL SOURCES?
====================================================
Here's some more kool-aid for you: [I gather you've never researched satanism, either?]
Just a few selections from our leaders . . .
"One August 1989 morning in Kennebunkport, Maine, Pres Bush (Sr) took his national security adviser, Brent Scowcroft, for a ride on the presidential speed boat, Fidelity. Four hours later, the president came ashore with a ringing slogan that Scowcroft had offered: "The New World Order" Ever since, the goal of a "new world order" has been the theme of Bush's Foreign policy pronouncements.----LA Times Feb 24, 1991
But this term has actually been used for generations by individuals seeking one-world socialist rule.
1919
A book entitled The New World Order by Samuel Zane Batten is published by the American Baptist Publication Society. In this book, Batten declares: "The old order passes from view, the new world rises upon our vision....We have vindicated the right of social control.....There must be developed a national spirit of service....Society must break the stranglehold of capitalism....The natural resources of the nation must be socialized....The state must socialize every group....Men must learn to have a world patriotism. World patriotism must be a faith....
1928
A book entitled The Open Conspiracy: Blue Prints for a World Revolution by socialist H. G. Wells is published.
He declares that "..The political world of the Open Conspiracy must weaken, efface, incorporate and supersede existing governments....The Open Conspiracy is the natural inheritor of socialist and communist enthusiasms, it may be in control of Moscow before it is in control of New York...."
1931
Historian Arnold Toynbee delivers a speech to the Institute for the Study of International Affairs at Copenhagen in which he explains:
"We are at present working discreetly with all our might to wrest this mysterious force called sovereignty out of the clutches of the local nation states of the world. All the time we are denying with our lips what we are doing with our hands,
because to impugn the sovereignty of the local nation states of the world is still a heresy for which a statesman or publicist can perhaps not quite be burned at the stake but certainly be ostracized or discredited." --International Affairs (journal of the Royal Institute of International Affairs, i.e. the British version of the Council on Foreign Relations) Nov 1931, "The Trend of International Affairs Wince the War"
1940
A book entitled, The New World Order by H.G. Wells, in which Wells claims:
"It is the system of nationalist individualism that has to go....We are living in the end of the sovereign states....In the great struggle to evoke a Westernized World Socialism, contemporary governments may vanish....Countless people...will hate the new world order....and will die protesting against it."
1948 - UNESCO: Its Purpose and Its Philosophy by Fabian Socialist Sir Julian Huxley is published
in which he proclaims that UNESCO "...In its education program it can stress the ultimate need for world political unity and familiarize all peoples with the implications of the transfer of full sovereignty from separate nations to a world organization..."
1949
Towards World Understanding, vol. V, is published by UNESCO, and in this volume one reads:
"As long as the child breathes the poisoned air of nationalism, education in world-mindedness can produce only rather precarious results....
For the moment, it is sufficient to note that it is most frequently in the family that the children are infected with nationalism by hearing what is national extolled and what is foreign disparaged....The activity of the school cannot bring about the desired result unless, repudiating every form of nationalism..."
1951 - July 31: The Chicago Tribune publishes an article, "OWI (office of war information) Propaganda machine Linked to Rhodes (Rhodes scholars) Men," stating: "Those who absorbed the Elmer Davis(Rhodes scholar and head of OWI), Office of War Information training have pushed the British concept of policing the world with American soldiers and economic aid
and have fought for a world federation under which the United States would surrender its sovereignty."
=============================================
For those needing reminding . . . Dilldo Klintoon was a Rhodes Scholar.
=============================================
1953
The Impact of Science on Society by Fabian Socialist Bertrand Russell is published in which he declares: " I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is mass psychology....Various results will soon be arrived at:
that the influence of home is obstructive....
although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class.
The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated. When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for a generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen....Educational propaganda, with government help, could achieve this result in a generation.
There are, however, two powerful forces opposed to such a policy: one is religion; the other is nationalism....A scientific world society cannot be stable unless there is a world government.
==================================================
I gather, Mr Crim, that you are unaware of the seriously researched and verified fact that OThuga DID USE
NEURO-LINGUISTIC PROGRAMMING in his speeches in this last election. That happens to be something I studied in my PhD in Clinical Psych.
==================================================
1958
In Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.'s The Coming of the New Deal he quotes Machiavelli at the front of the book saying, "There is nothing...more dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things." And at the end of the book, he quotes Fabian Socialist H.G. Wells describing FDR as: "The most effective transmitting instrument possible for the coming of the new world order....He is continuously revolutionary in the new way without ever provoking a stark revolutionary crisis."
1960 - The United States in the World Arena by Walt Rostow (CFR) is published. In the book he declares: "It is a legitimate American objective to see removed from all nations--including the United States--the right to use substantial military force to pursue their own interest. Since this residual right is the root of national sovereignty and the basis for the existence of an international arena of power, it is, therefore, an American interest to see an end to nationhood as it had been historically defined."
1962 - A lecture given by CFR member Nelson Rockefeller at Harvard University in which he says that there is"...a new and free order struggling to be born....(There is a )fever of nationalism....(but) the nation-state is becoming less and less competent to perform its international political tasks....These are some of the reasons pressing us to lead vigorously toward the true building of a new world order....(with)voluntary service...Sooner perhaps than we may realize,....there will evolve the bases for a federal structure of the free world."
1967 - March 26: Pope Paul VI writes Populorum Progressio and states: "Who can fail to see the need and importance of thus gradually coming to the establishment of a world authority capable of taking effective action on the juridical and political planes? Delegates to international organizations, public officials, gentlemen of the press, teachers and educators--all of you must realize that you have your part to play in the construction of a new world order.
1970 - Between Two Ages: America's Role in the Technetronic Era by Zbigniew Brzezinski is published. He is a CFR member who will become the first director of the Trilateral Commission and President Carter's national security advisor. In this book he states: "Marxism represents a further vital and creative stage in the maturing of man's universal vision. Marxism is simultaneously a victory of the external, active man over the inner, passive man and a victory of reason over belief.....Human beings become increasingly manipulable and malleable...
Today we are again witnessing the emergence of transnational elites....whose ties cut across national boundaries....The nation-state is gradually yielding its sovereignty....Further progress will require greater American sacrifices. More intensive efforts to shape a new world monetary structure will have to be undertaken.”
1972 - Pres Nixon's speech giving in Peking from UPI 2-25-72......."and the hope that each of us has to build a new world order....."
1990 - Mikhail Gorbachev quoted in Washington Post Feb 25 1990 "...A new world order is taking shape so fast that governments are well as private citizens find it difficult just to absorb the gallop of events....."
President Bush (SR) quotes on new world order and United nations:
"Time and again in this century, the political map of the world was transformed. And in each instance, a new world order came about through the advent of a new tyrant or the outbreak of a bloody global war, or its end." Feb 28, 1990---this quote is six months before Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in August.
"Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective--a new world order--can emerge...... We are now in sight of a United Nations that performs as envisioned by its founders." --Sep 11 1990
1992 - July 20 Time magazine published "The Birth of the Global Nation" by Strobe Talbott (Rhodes scholar roommate of Bill Clinton at Oxford University, CFR director, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace board of directors member, and Trilateralist from a wealthy Ohio investment banking family), in which he writes: All countries are basically social arrangements....No matter how permanent or even sacred they may seem at any one time, in fact they are all artificial and temporary....Perhaps national sovereignty wasn't such a great idea after all....But it has taken the events in our own wondrous and terrible century to clinch the case for world government."
1993 - April 21: General Colin Powell receives the United Nations Association-USA's Global Leadership Award, and he remarks: "The United Nations will spearhead our efforts to manage the new conflicts (that afflict our world)....Yes the principles of the United Nations Charter are worth our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor."
1993 - July 18: CFR member and Trilateralist Henry Kissinger writes in The Los Angeles Times concerning NAFTA: "What Congress will have before it is not a conventional trade agreement but the architecture of a new international system....a first step toward a new world order."
1996 - October 23: On "The Charlie Rose Show" on the Public Broadcasting System, Mikhail Gorbachev states: "We are part of the Cosmos. Cosmos is my God. Nature is my God....The future society will be a totally new civilization which will synthesize the experience of Socialism and Capitalism...."
Are you awake yet, Mr Crim? Are you planning to wake up before they knock on your door? Or are you already on their side?
Actually, my reality testing appears to be in considerably better shape than yours, if your posts on this thread are any clue.
The only difference is which site posts them. FR when a libtard is in office or DUmmies when a republicrat is in office.
I can’t vouch for the article.
I do know that occasionally
idiots tell the truth more than scholars and priests.
Thanks for your affirmations of the truth and a delcaration about who’s side you’re on!
Appreciated.
"Why should we make the mistake of fighting the current revolution with the tools & tactics of prior conflicts?"
Mistake? Tell that to those who fought, and won The American Revolutionary War, or those who defeated Hitler.
"The biggest crime is not that it's illegal to advocate treason & sedition, but because it's ineffective."
You make the mistake of assuming that anyone on this board is advocating sedition or treason.
The treason is already being committed, by the Socialist Democrats and their Dear Leader, in case you hadn't noticed.
And, for your information, the American people have every right to uphold, defend, and protect the Constitution of The United States of America against all enemies, both foreign and domestic.
There's a reason for the 2nd Amendment, my friend, and it's got nothing to do with hunting dinner. It's for hunting treasonous politicians and would-be tyrants.
You clearly have
“the milk of human kindness by the quart in every vein.”
BTW, it’s not very polite to shoot the messenger.
It’s all good. Later.
THANKS THANKS.
AND THANKS FOR BEING AWAKE AND PREPARED AND PATRIOTIC.
THANKS from the bottom of my heart.
You can't believe that anyone here actually wants an armed conflict, do you?
The point is, we're nearly out of options to stop the madness in Washington. The politicians who are in control are ignoring the will of The People. Meanwhile, they're literally dismantling our constitutional republic brick by brick. Lately, it's wall by wall.
What do you think we ought to do about it? All of the tools available to us in a normal, working relationship with our government have stopped working. Why do you think these tea parties are springing up all over the country? It's because millions of us have realized that we have to take our opposition to a new level, if we want to be heard and taken seriously.
Compute with the facts at hand, and you too will see that, at the very least, you need to contemplate the very real possibility that we may have to defend our freedom with our lives. None of us wants it to go that way, but take a hard look at what's going on. The possibility must be confronted.

20 k troops isn’t enough to hold the nation. They wouldn’t even hold down a medium sized city.
You’re thinking like it’s 1776. An armed rebellion in America today wouldn’t operate the same as Washington’s army.
Organized, and even rag-tag militias would quickly overwhelm most city governments and the National Guard would be powerless to stop it. The military wouldn’t dare attempt to re-take any such city, because they’d have to kill half the population to do so.
It’s a whole different ballgame than conflicts of the past. Most importantly, I think you underestimate the loyalty of the American people to their fundamental organizing principles, and to their country.
During the Revolutionary War, Americans were subjects of the British crown, so no, many of them did not support upsetting the order they were accustomed to.
But those same personalities are now loyal American citizens, who are likewise, accustomed to a certain order in their culture, which many now see as being threatened by the real radicals, the Socialists and their Dear Leader.
I contend that they will resist Mr. Obama’s “change” in every way they can, to save their way of life and their security. If the call to arms should come, I believe that a great percentage of the American people will answer it. They’ve got nowhere else to go. Their backs are against the wall.
Don't you really want to win? Why would you reject, or fail to consider, such an effective means of victory that could easily garner the support of 100m or so Americans in a unified effort?
Or do you really want to win? Ever hear of the term "agent provocateur"? Why would you advocate something that is both ineffective and strengthens the hand of the enemy?
Well not in recent history.
Where did you ever see me do any such thing? I don't reject any effective measure or action that will gain ground against the Socialists.
And, it is simply your opinion that a people cannot defend and protect their way of life by standing up to tyranny with more than placards and protest marches.
In fact, when confronted with a real and powerful evil, it is perhaps the only method a free people have of preventing their enslavement.
If you imagine that only a relatively small number of die-hard rebels would actually take up arms against the tyranny, then yes, they would be overwhelmed by the full weight of tyrannical force.
But, that's not what will happen if the Socialists push the American people into ruin and degradation. If that happens, you will see a rebellion in this country, the likes of which has never been seen in world history.
“Funny you mention Zeitgeist on your home page. Every seen the movie?
http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/";
yeah...it’s a bunch of bullshit just like loose change...which I also watched...
from the *cough* zeitgeist
“Christianity, along with all other theistic belief systems, is the fraud of the age. It serves to detach the species from the natural world, and likewise, each other. It supports blind submission to authority. It reduces human responsibility to the effect that “God” controls everything, and in turn awful crimes can be justified in the name of Divine Pursuit. And most importantly, it empowers those who know the truth but use the myth to manipulate and control societies. The religious myth is the most powerful device ever created, and serves as the psychological soil upon which other myths can flourish”
Oohh...ahhhh...just more athiestic anti-christian BULLSHIT.
try again...maybe post a white seperatist site next?..or maybe try a christian sepratists?
or maybe some other commie site I’m too stupid to know about...
I confront that possibility everyday.
