Texas preparing for civil war: Operation Jade Helm

    Military exercises in the southern USA have local officials on edge and the Texas State Guard (a militia similar to the Texan National Guard) have been instructed to monitor the exercise while fears of a coup d'etat and federal attempt to assert control are rife amongst the populace.

    https://www.bostonglobe.com/news/nation/2015/05/25/divided-america-theories-military-takeover-texas-find-legitimacy-political-mainstream/KSScgClOewjIXXisqkF5IM/story.html


    Apparently the exercise is just a cover to psychologically prepare citizens for the sight of armed soldiers on their streets, round up dissidents, disarm the local population and use disused Wal-Marts as supply depots for allied Chinese soldiers who will arrive to act as occupiers.

    Operation Jade Helm, the New World Order finally coming to fruition or just a training exercise?

    If you have a hammer everything looks like a nail.
    If you have a gun (and Texans do) everyone looks like a terrorist.

    Serious enough for the Texan government to be taking precautions. For all we know it could be an aggressive attempt to assert more federal control.

    Special forces had over a decade of practicing snatch and grabs in foreign locales. On home turf should be easy.

    Why not? Pussycats.

    Fought for and won independence from one country and almost immediately begged to be annexed by another. Shower of wimps if you ask me.

    Don't forget about the black helicopters and bovine mutilations.

    Most swat teams are more than capable of doing that job

    Obama is restricting the sale of military equipment to regional police forces. It's to demilitarise the police and make them easier to pacify when the takeover is done, removing what could be quite troublesome and well-trained resistance.

    Elements in the military claim it won't be a seizure of power. But the right wingers in America seem to think it as a potential Night of the Long Knives.

    Apparently to remove regional control and bring in a centralised government with the federal government supreme.

    Okay and there's also a theory the Wal-Marts are going to be used as FEMA processing centres.

    How will Centra and Spar be involved in this? Are they secretly hiding nuclear missile silos in the milk fridge?

    "On March 19, inside a studio in the state capital of Austin, talk radio host Alex Jones sat behind an anchor’s desk in a gray suit and open-collared shirt.

    “We’ve got huge breaking news, ladies and gentlemen,” he said in a gravelly voice to his national audience of some 1 million listeners. “It’s going to be happening in Austin’s back door.”


    Alex Jones.


    Funny how I instantly knew from the headline that he'd somehow be involved in the fun.

    Applegreen are making inroads over there. They are using the codewords 'Any petrol?' and 'you can get a bag of Tayto with that to make it a
    fiver' to covertly reinforce the influence of the federal government.

    Americans don't know what Taytos are and certaintly wouldn't say "fiver".

    In fairness, it is a good way to acclimatise the populace to helicopters constantly swooping overhead and strange noises at night. With all those drones and spy satellites it's a lot easier for them to extract a hostile individual than say some warlord in Somalia.
