Retired generals urge Pentagon to take steps to avert 'civil war' after 2024 election
Washington Examiner ^ | Dec 17, 2021 | Daniel Chaitin, Deputy News Editor

The U.S. military must start making preparations for another "insurrection" after the 2024 election, according to a trio of retired military generals.

An op-ed published by the Washington Post on Friday called for action amid growing concern among former senior officials about the "potential for lethal chaos inside our military" in a flash of violence that could eclipse the Capitol riot on Jan. 6.

They see civil war because the Dems are likely to lose if they don’t get to cheat enough. If the Dems lose, the deep state will fund blm, antifa and more to riot everywhere. That would be enough friction to cause more Rittenhouse like responses.

Match to fuel.

Are these generals transgendered?

The Pro Homo and Tranny Generals or the Anti Homo and Tranny Generals?

Exactly.

I have to laugh when some of my friends think the military would be on the rights side when the voting public finally decides to make a stand. I served in the early 90’s and todays military is completely different than when i served.

I urge all conservatives to leave US military service as soon as they legally can to avoid having to fight for truly evil people.

I urge all conservative (and far leftist) politicians to cut US military funding drastically. The money can be better spent on say Medicare coverage of progressive cataract replacement lenses and dentures.

This, along with Biden’s statements about his confidence in the next election, show they are again planning to steal, or engineer, if you will, the next election.

So the “steps” might include the new gulags to be built on undeveloped national lands for the conservatives who refuse to surrender rights, liberty and guns to a Marxist government taking over the US?

If Jan 6 was an ‘insurrection’, what do they call the southern border?

When I visited Beijing many years ago, I always wondered how the government of previous empires could function behind 25 foot high walls in the Forbidden City and how they became so disconnected from the people.

I understand now how that process occurs.

The best way to avert civil war is to respect the human rights of the governed.

Biden’s predictions he reads are generally right. That’s scary as hell.

You are correct. What needs to be stated, is Rittenhouse’s acquittal essentially green-lighted the average citizen the right to insert oneself into riots and shoot to kill without fear of a murder conviction. All the city officials have to do is sell kill tags as done for deer hunting to give their blessing.

<< “First, everything must be done to prevent another insurrection.” >>

False flag event, not an insurrection. And it was perpetrated by anti-Trump forces, not Trump supporters. No amount of gaslighting by big media propagandists and deep staters will change history.

Do what you gotta do. We outnumber the living hell out of you. You couldn’t pacify Iraq or Afghanistan in 20 years. Both are roughly the size of Texas. Now you wanna conquer America while standing right in top of your own logistical tall, from your basically unprotected bases, with half the soldiers on our side.

Tool.

Wait until one of these Soros-funded prosecutors indicts Trump and tries to extradite him from Florida and a few hundred thousand Trump supporters show up. Things might get a little interesting.

Was there ever a doubt the US military would be used-again against US citizens… If they want to avoid a civil war have fair elections and stop stomping on civil Rights.

There’s no way the woke joint chiefs will get this right and you will see Americans droned out of existence and called terrorist.
