I read through some of this, and I have to say it's very chilling. But I want to see what others have to say about this as well. The conspiracy websites are having a field day with this, but I'm hoping to get some people who haven't read any of that nonsense yet, to get a more honest view of what this really is.

I’m not always sure about WND (World Net Daily). They seem to have a lot of stuff that is never mentioned in the “main stream media”—or any other site.

Sometimes, they’re right on—other times, they do one rather startling article and you never hear another word about it.

However, in this day and time, I don’t discount much, because I think we are in a place and time when anything is possible.....

The US first pioneered this during the Indian Wars. Later it was used after WWII, then during the Vietnam War. These type operations should have been conducted during the Iraq and Afghanistan occupations.

The same situation applies: a large number of people in the combat operational area, most of whom are civilians that need evacuation for their protection; and some of whom are combatants, using the civilians for support (voluntarily or not) and concealment.

This is the military equivalent of a FEMA relief operation, but in the case of FEMA, all the people are civilians that need a lot of support in a hurry. After Katrina, W. Bush ordered the creation of major regional emergency facilities in response to the disaster of the evacuation of New Orleans. As bad as Katrina was, it was mild compared to a disaster like a San Andreas “big one”, or the New Madrid fault wiping out Nashville and several other cities.

Imagine trying to pull that off with a few hundred thousand foreign evacuee-refugees interspersed with terrorist suicide bombers and other monsters.

Read through some of this and it appears to be a manual for Military Police when they have prisoners of war (now called EPWs).

BTW this document was released in 2008. It’s not new and it’s not from the Obama administration.

An adaptive enemy will manipulate populations that are hostile to U.S. intent by instigating mass civil disobedience, directing criminal activity, masking their operations in urban and other complex terrain, maintaining an indistinguishable presence through cultural anonymity, and actively seeking the traditional sanctuary of protected areas as defined by the rules of land warfare.

Shouldn't they be rounding up democr progressives?

The bit I read indicates to me that this is an ops manual for dealing with a native population under US occupation. This has been a long time element of US military experience. Think Trail of Tears, Reservations, Philippine pacification,Haiti, the DR, Vietnamese strategic hamlet program, and the Marines’ Civic Action Platoons. I see no indication that they’re planning a replay of Manzanar

This is the search for past discussions here when they were looking for Internment/Resettlement specialists.

How to stop Internment and Resettlement Operations:

LESSON NO. 1: If a bureaucrat, or a soldier sent by a bureaucrat, comes to knock down your door and take you someplace you do not want to go because of who you are or what you think -- kill him. If you can, kill the politician who sent him. You will likely die anyway, and you will be saving someone else the same fate. For it is a universal truth that the intended victims always far outnumber the tyrant's executioners. Any nation which practices this lesson will quickly run out of executioners and tyrants.

LESSON NO. 2: If a bureaucrat, or a soldier sent by a bureaucrat, comes to knock down your door and confiscate your firearms -- kill him. The disarmament of law-abiding citizens is the required precursor to genocide.

It is a sad fact that in this day and age, that the first thing that comes to mind is suspicion and a lack of trust in the government. But because of what is happening now (Patriot Act, TSA goons, etc.) it’s wise to be cautious of everything from the politicians and bureaucrats.

Just WHICH “Civilian Interns” are they considering dealing with?

They mention third world countries, but all of the elements addressed seem focus on US!

A cursory review of the document leads me to think

1) It is authentic

2) It has nothing to do with the worries conspiracy folks may think it does (and I’m prone to believe conspiracy theories)

3) Even if it IS used to round me up some day, it looks like humane treatment is the order of the day. Without this guide, treatment would probably be a lot worse

There’s still too many Americans with too many guns and too many bullets for any jerk-off to start loading trains.

This document is also known as “Plan for Obama’s Second Term.”

Take it to the bank.

This is probably so much conspiracy theory hype.
The US military has formal plans for everything from the invasion of Tahiti to the nuking of the North Pole. This is most likely just only of their many “what if” plans in print.

I read this kind of stuff back during the Bush administration, on left wing websites.
