Reid/Obama have no doubt asked BLM to stand down until after the 2014 election, so everyone needs to be ready for that....and drones could be involved, but they are going to be looking for a better excuse than the ‘desert tortoise’ and ‘unpaid grazing fees’....this will get real by 2015, so no Victory marches! This is just a pause before a new BEGINNING, and people had choose how they will act when it goes down. Next time BLM will have the green light as no elections until 2016.

I’m with the earlier poster who suggested the BATF is the next step, and they’ll “find” all sorts of things (bombs, raw explosives, illegal guns, Nazi literature) in a “raid” to separate the Rancher from his supporters. There won’t be a need to wait until after November.

The whole thing doesn't make sense to me yet.

I don't see how the Fed's can back off without setting the precedent that none of the ranchers need to pay grazing fees.
I don't understand what Bundy meant by "BLM was managing him out of business".
I don't understand whey Bundy didn't sue the BLM if they were failing to live up to BLM's responsibilities.
I'm still unclear on the whole solar business and whether it's was Bundy's land or the other end of the county.
I'm unclear on the land deal with the Chinese company and whether that included the Bundy's land or not.
I'm unclear why they sold it at such a discount to it's appraised value, but there are often legitimate reasons for communities to offer land deals to attract businesses. Would this have produced jobs and justified the deal, or was this stricly political pressure ala Reid?
