Mid-East: Will there be a domino effect? Absolutely!

Five years ago I began having numerous discussions on many important issues facing our country and all were pointed towards this subject. With that in mind I had a real confusion of thoughts as to how to talk about this knowing what is happening in America with our societal degradation, increased homelessness, increased job loss, record cop killings, and concern of societal unrest over an increasingly dire situation for many.

My first thought as to our troops training for inner city fighting was not for Iraq and Afghanistan as the below report states but right here in the good old USA. The training is in a mock city the size of San Diego that includes a circular town center, a hospital district and a full-scale soccer stadium where troops can land helicopters. Base officials have also applied what they call an immersive training technique to bring the city to life:

About 1,000 role players interact with training Marines, even shifting allegiances or their level of support for the U.S. to reflect possible real-world scenarios. Many buildings are furnished. One block of hotels had curtains in the windows, signs, and vintage computers on the desks.This is supposed to represent a typical town in Iraq and Afghanistan and I could be wrong but computers? curtains? blocks of hotels? Sounds like America to me. US Troops get urban combat training in massive mock city

We have had many discussions as to the secret meetings on Martial law if it became a necessity to declare martial law in the event of massive civil unrest over the economy and overall living conditions and unhappiness with the Government. We have had many discussions about the FEMA concentration camps that are supposedly in case we are over run by illegal immigrants. At one time the Democrats figured they would be in them then the tea partiers thought they were for them.

Watching the unrest in the world today in the Middle East and Africa over corrupt Government, lack of jobs and food and knowing that the poorer countries which happen to be predominantly Muslim will be the first to fall apart and rebel in the streets as they are and eventually this degradation and anarchy will take over America and the rest of the so called civilized world too I have thoughts of Posse Comitatus

The statute generally prohibits federal military personnel and units of the National Guard under federal authority from acting in a law enforcement capacity within the United States, except where expressly authorized by the Constitution or Congress. In late 2006, Congress revised the Posse Comitatus Act and the Insurrection Act to make it far easier for a president to declare martial law.

Knowing all this I would like your input on what you think about US troops training for inner city training now especially when we are supposed to be getting out of Iraq and Afghanistan! I remember in 2005 discussing US troops training in and being used in our cities but seeing what is happening around the world with growing break downs and growing civil unrest what do you think about it now knowing we are not?

US Troops get urban combat training in massive mock city, For use in America?

Republican nominees show there's no need to cater to minorities or average Americans as Bush's abusive power is not in danger!

Tuesday I did a story in regards to Hillary Clinton's possible nomination. In it I included information on a story from a very concerned up to snuff citizen and a list of the top 25 censored stories of 2008. I pointed out stories #1 which abolishes Habeus Corpus for any person and not just suspected terrorists, and #2 which moves Bush towards martial law. In effect it repeals the Posse Comitatus Act, which placed strict prohibitions on military involvement in domestic law enforcement.
Just think about those 2 implications alone! Below are the 2 links I sincerely hope you look at. I am republishing them because I noticed last time that there were many comments joking about these very real concerns for all of us, without once checking the well researched facts and laws passed by Bush. I had to assume that anybody but a Bush pundit would be greatly concerned about the loss of basic rghts and protections so the commenters must have been trolls.

First anon paranoid from America Weeps wrote a great piece on the very abused awesome powers the President now has as a direct consequence of 9/11 and The Patriot act, all by the design of Bush's deceptive underhanded Politics. This deserves your attention

As you read what he has put together you must already realize Bush can not allow this excessive power in the hands of Democrats and if you need further proof please look at this frightening list of the top 25 censored of 2008. They are very frightening and sobering. Pay particular attention to #1 and #2 Bush will not relinquish this and can not!

With what I would consider as inexcusable behavior by the top Republican Presidential nominees my concerns are validated. First A Republican debate on Univision, the Spanish-language television network, was canceled this month because Mr. McCain was the only leading candidate to agree to attend. (The top Democratic candidates, by contrast, did debate on the network.)
The decision to skip the forum last nght was criticized in an editorial in The Washington Times, a conservative-leaning newspaper, that said, “It is striking that the Republican front-runners believe that some run-of-the mill fund-raiser is more important than building up their relationships with black and Hispanic voters, groups who flock to the Democratic Party in droves.” You would think that would be a concern unless there is no concern for the loss of corruptive Republican power!

The four no-shows -- former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, former Sen. Fred Thompson, Arizona Sen. John McCain and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney -- cited scheduling conflicts in saying they could not attend the debate at historically black Morgan State University. They had months prior notice, if they cared they would have made the adjustments. They routinely do it all the time. There is no excuse beyond lack of concern. They have no concern for average Americans or for the loss of the corruptive massive power Bush has gained. will there even be elections?
GOP candidates skip debate

Like Anon I fully expect elections to be cancelled in 2008 and martial law declared, and so will you if you read the last 2 links. It is in Bush's awesome abused power to declare martial law if he sees a danger to his Government and we are the danger. At the very least I expect Bush to attack Iran before Congress can stop him and will call for a Constitutional Amendment calling for Bush to stay in office indefinitely too stay at the helm of his wars.

Anyway you look at it 2008 is going to be hell and I am not just talking the election. Bush will guarantee it one way or the other. In closing I just want to say I really hope you looked at the 2nd and 3rd links! Republicans can not let their awesome corruptive powers in Democratic hands.
