Rep. Louie Gohmert (TX-01) released the following statement on the ‘Jade Helm 15’ exercises scheduled to take place in Texas and various other states:
“Over the past few weeks, my office has been inundated with calls referring to the Jade Helm 15 military exercise scheduled to take place between July 15 and September 15, 2015. This military practice has some concerned that the U.S. Army is preparing for modern-day martial law.
Certainly, I can understand these concerns. When leaders within the current administration believe that major threats to the country include those who support the Constitution, are military veterans, or even ‘cling to guns or religion,’ patriotic Americans have reason to be concerned. We have seen people working in this administration use their government positions to persecute people with conservative beliefs in God, country, and notions such as honor and self-reliance. Because of the contempt and antipathy for the true patriots or even Christian saints persecuted for their Christian beliefs, it is no surprise that those who have experienced or noticed such persecution are legitimately suspicious.
Having served in the U.S. Army, I can understand why military officials have a goal to see if groups of Special Forces can move around a civilian population without being noticed and can handle various threat scenarios. In military science classes or in my years on active duty, I have participated in or observed military exercises; however, we never named an existing city or state as a “hostile.” We would use fictitious names before we would do such a thing.
Once I observed the map depicting ‘hostile,’ ‘permissive,’ and ‘uncertain’ states and locations, I was rather appalled that the hostile areas amazingly have a Republican majority, ‘cling to their guns and religion,’ and believe in the sanctity of the United States Constitution. When the federal government begins, even in practice, games or exercises, to consider any U.S. city or state in 'hostile' control and trying to retake it, the message becomes extremely calloused and suspicious.
Such labeling tends to make people who have grown leery of federal government overreach become suspicious of whether their big brother government anticipates certain states may start another civil war or be overtaken by foreign radical Islamist elements which have been reported to be just across our border. Such labeling by a government that is normally not allowed to use military force against its own citizens is an affront to the residents of that particular state considered as 'hostile,' as if the government is trying to provoke a fight with them. The map of the exercise needs to change, the names on the map need to change, and the tone of the exercise needs to be completely revamped so the federal government is not intentionally practicing war against its own states.”
Regarding the map. Does anyone know what “ODG x 4, ODA x 8, etc.” and the other (acronyms?) stand for? Thanks.
I see no LEGITIMATE need for this “exercise” It should simply be cancelled.
Looks like a chess game. Position the pieces first.
Operational Detachment ‘G’; Operational Detachment ‘A’.
The x4 and x6 indicate the number of personnel in each detachment. AOB could Air/Aviation Operations Base. CJSOTF - um, Combined/Joint Special Operations Task Force.
Please keep in mind, this is just a guess based on reading some Tom Clancy novels...
I’ll let others see what they come up with.
If comm is shut down, how will the general person know anything is amiss? Moreover, how will we're dealing with a terrorist attack
as an explanation be known to be a lie?

This,,,
Tom Clancy did his research, so I imagine you may be right on the money.
Right or wrong, thanks to you I can quit wondering about it:)
Moreover, how will “we’re dealing with a terrorist attack” as an explanation be known to be a lie?
And how will a soldier know that his raid target isn’t part of an “ISIS cell”, and that the whole effort is dishonest?
That’s odd. That’s all the states la raza wants.
I am proudly hostile.
Molon Labe, BITCH!
Very nice...at least we know what they are planning.
Exactly!
The orders for evil might come from respected, official channels of which the soldier has no reason to suspect. — To pull off a false-flag instigated mission, only a remarkably small set of knowledgeable actors is needed, the rest merely need to follow their training and contengency-plans.
They’re not smart enough to shut all comm down at once.
We’ll know something is amiss, sufficient to be on guard.
The shutdown would have the effect of limiting coordinated defense.
Cutting power and land phone would be 70% of the comms, bring in cell-jammers (or cut power to the towers as well) and that's 95%.
That's doable, and not exactly hard to coordinate.

Perhaps.

Not necessarily, military comms especially operates on self-supplied power (be it battery or generator) and a different portion of the EM spectrum.
ODG= Jedi
ODA = SF Team[Green berets] 12 guys
MSOT = Marine Special Operations Team 14 guys
You need to got to YouTube and watch the videos on Jade Helm, all the tunnels, and the closed Walmarts.
Its all connected!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They done screwed up! I promise you that Western half of CO will NOT be friendly. At all. It will be populated by gun and religion clingers, and grizzled mountain men who know the terrain and mountains better than anyone else.
I meant we citizens defending against Obamunism.
