Writers detail shocking civil war resulting from 'Tea Party militia' taking over South Carolina town - and the U.S. military's response
They prophesize that unrest will result from the the economy's failure to improve from 'Great Recession'
Commenters quick to fire back at the writers, as one brands Col Benson a 'traitor in waiting'
A duo of writers have ignited an uproar with their foretelling of an insurrection that will plunge America into a new civil war, courtesy of a 'Tea Party militia.'
Written in disturbing detail by a retired colonel and the academic, the article describes events leading up to a full-blown civil war on American soil, like the one that is currently gripping Syria.
The article also describes the plan of the American military to quash the rebellion orchestrated by its own citizens.
The Small Wars Journal article, entitled 'Full Spectrum Operations in the Homeland: A "Vision" of the Future,' was written by retired U.S. Army Col Kevin Benson and Jennifer Weber.
So when does such a civil war begin? According to Benson and Weber, the seeds of their vision have already been planted.
They write that the Great Recession will have lasted longer than anyone could know, sparking massive unemployment and political unrest.
Benson and Weber write that despite a change in control of the White House and Congress in 2012, the economys downward smile will continue, with the percentage of jobless Americans near double digits.
But the authors say it wont be until 2016 when things start to take a bad turn.
The write: 'In May 2016 an extremist militia motivated by the goals of the "tea party" movement takes over the government of Darlington, South Carolina, occupying City Hall, disbanding the city council, and placing the mayor under house arrest.'(continued)

I’m in. Where do I report?
Good grief. What a couple of idiots. A drone and an M1 Abrams and game over. Add to that all those that jut talk tough and, well . . . these two are ridiculous.
Excepting the fact that blacks are murdering whites regularly because of their skin color, the author is spot on.

Not going to happen.
The people in Darlington, SC love their twinkies too much.
They’re drumming up tea party hate for the 2014 mid terms. Won’t matter. We will all just quietly go to the polls and kick their collective a$$es. I don’t need a party name to do that.
Civil war, my behind!
Ummmmm. There was no change in control of the white house or congress in 2012.
When, exactly, was the scenario written?
I’m in.
I’m not sure I can wait that long
Umm, what?
Hey, Benson.....BOO!
Skeered ya’, din’t I?
I firmly believe that those in power on the left want this to happen.
Tea Party maintaining/gaining traction and getting under their collective skin, again. Time to (try to) knock the TP back down.
We all live on a Gov't reservation.
