First of all, I quoted Doug Casey, who, in turn, cited a July 20th Reuters news report.

Blaming others for your own ignorance is pretty lame.

In addition to the tank battalions, the supreme commander activated 500 Air force fighter-bomber squadrons

Assuming that the Air Force squadron TO&E is roughly similar to the USMC one, that's 6,000 fighter-bombers. We don't have that many tactical aircraft in the whole damn Air Force!

And 1,000 Special Forces units? Snicker, chuckle...

Almost as amazing as the blind obedience to illegitimate authority that many are expressing in response to this story, is how you guys will spend hours dealing with irrelevant minutia connected to this story instead of the main issues.

If you can't get the very basic facts right, and won't take ownership of where you're ignorant, then why should I accept your analysis of the "main issues," or even your identification of what the "main issues" actually are?

BTW, I got the info from a group of Constitutional patriots who happen to be US Marshals...you see I happen to know a LOT of LEOs personally and professionally who are totally freaked out by what is happening behind the scenes in America...

They also told me that once the BATF found out that the cat was "out-of-the-bag", they pulled the "Founding Fathers were terrorists" rhetoric from the presentation...sometime earlier this year.

I'm sorry Poohbah that it's so hard for your little mind to grasp the concept that there are bad people in the US Gov't., but it doesn't mean they don't exist...
