You should read the original thread on this topic here:
Full Spectrum Operations in the Homeland: A Vision of the Future (CW2 Ping)

You should read the commentary in that thread by Travis McGee, bayouranger, and Steel Wolf in particular.
And if at all possible, I encourage you to have COL Benson read the same. Strongly encourage. They “get” a lot that I don’t think he does, there on the banks of the Potomac (figuratively if not literally).
Perhaps, but they also don't get their facts straight, at least based on most of the comments that I read.
No doubt that this issue is cause for concern, but the concern is with the political zealots who currently infest the White House and other corridors of power in DC. Thank Benson for getting this issue on the street, though I don't think that was his intent and I doubt that he realizes what a bonehead thing he did by using a political hot potato in his scenario.
