EZRA COHEN - 2022

Ymani Cricket posted about EzraACohen. IS this the same guy as “EZRA COHEN-WATNIK” of Q post fame?

As perhaps many of you may recall, I had an almost obsessive/compulsive drive to research this guy. Having been gone for a while, most of you may already realize what I’ve just awakened to. If so, sorry for hashing old news!

Ymani Cricket’s post:
An interesting discussion over there. Research wanted thread at GAW. (FYI: SOCOM is Special Operations Command NOT Southern Command)
FYI: Former Sec. of Defense Chris Miller just created a new twitter account as of Nov. and was linked to by Ezra Cohen on 12/4 with this tweet:”Replying to @IrregWarfare Step #1: Abide by Section 922. Establish statutorily required civilian control of SOCOM, , as implemented by @CMillerTIgerHwk ? (media.greatawakening.win) Research Wanted posted 12 hours ago by gnuguy
The tweet in question is here:

“Ezra ASA Cohen-Watnick is an American intelligence official who served as the acting under secretary of defense for intelligence during the Trump Administration….”

His middle name is ‘ASA”, therefore, it seems to be a match. Am wondering now what happened to his hyphen “Watnik”

SecDef Taking the Reins of SOF is Not a Coup, It’s Law. by Steve Balestrieri. Nov 19, 2020

“On Wednesday, Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller ordered the top civilian overseeing the military’s special operations command to report directly to him. This long-overdue effectively brings the U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) on par with military departments per authority from the 2017 National Defense Authorization Act.

Miller made this announcement when visiting Fort Bragg, NC, the home of the Army’s Special Operations. It was his first official visit as the acting secretary since taking over the office on November 9 after President Trump fired Secretary Mark Esper.

This announcement is the first step toward making the assistant secretary of defense for special operations and low-intensity conflict [ASD (SO/LIC)], a service secretary-like position responsible for the oversight and advocacy of the military’s special operations forces, said Miller.

...

Miller said he hopes that in the future Congress will elevate the ASD (SO/LIC) position to an undersecretary of defense level. He specified that he lacks the authority to do so. Before his announcement, the ASD (SO/LIC) reported to the defense secretary through the undersecretary of defense for policy, the de facto number three civilian in the Pentagon.

Ezra Cohen-Watnick is currently the ASD (SO/LIC) role on an acting basis. Miller had briefly served in that position on a temporary basis earlier this year, as well.

“I also want to highlight that this particular change has been analyzed, debated and refined over the course of the past 30 years, Miller said.

Miller’s announcement on Wednesday finally aligns the Pentagon with what Congress had ordered in the FY2017 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) during the Obama administration. Congress’s intent was for the ASD (SO/LIC) position to be a service secretary-like job and report directly to the defense secretary “for issues impacting the readiness and organization of special operations forces, special operations-peculiar resources and equipment, and civilian personnel management.”

However, SOCOM and the Pentagon had made little, if any, progress on the order since it was given for the FY2017 NDAA. In late October 2019, this prompted members of the House and Senate Armed Services Committees to write to then-Secretary of Defense Mark Esper calling out the Pentagon’s feet dragging on this matter. Specifically mentioned in the letter was the need for “civilian oversight and advocacy for Special Operations Forces. “A copy of that letter can be read here.

In the letter, members of Congress urged Esper and the Pentagon to speed up the elevation of the position in its fiscal year 2020 NDAA. Esper replied last year to Congress saying that the Defense Department was making progress on the ordered changes.”

A quick tweak to the input tray would cause a miss feed.....and could easily be "un-tweaked" later

"See the machines are working correctly."

Say for example setting the input tray to 19 inches when the ballot is 20 inches long.

Here’s an interesting tidbit.

When I checked in to ADS-B yesterday, there were a total of 5 AWACS planes up.
Of those, one was a Navy E2, which had some remarking that Navy E2 over land is a [surprising] anomaly.
So, I dug in and uncovered that it was flying tight circles over Virginia.

Then...I looked at the ADS-B signature and it [Navy E2] had the call-sign “TGRHWK1”

TEXOKIE repasted: “control of SOCOM, , as implemented by @CMillerTIgerHwk”
Chris Miller, on Twitter, uses @tigerhawk.
An interesting data point.

It’s no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It’s an endless series of proxy battles, fought by mercenaries and machines.

War—and it’s consumption of life—has become a well-oiled machine.

ID-tagged soldiers carry ID-tagged weapons, use ID-tagged gear. Nano technology inside their bodies will soon enhance and regulate their abilities.

Genetic control
Information control
Emotion control
Battlefield control

Everything will be monitored and kept under control.

The age of deterrence has transitioned to the age of control, all in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction.

And he who controls the battlefield, controls history.

When the battlefield is under total control, war becomes routine.

2030
