News reports that the federal Department of Homeland Security is stockpiling billions of rounds of ammunition have prompted many Americans to ask: Just who is the government preparing to go to war with?
To radio talker Mark Levin, the answer is that “our society is unraveling” and DHS is preparing for “the collapse of our financial system, the collapse of our society and the potential for widespread violence, looting, killing in the streets, because that’s what happens when an economy collapses.” Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin agrees, saying, “We’re going to default eventually and that’s why the feds are stockpiling bullets in case of civil unrest.”
But all this, dire as it sounds, is just the tip of the iceberg. As WND’s acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine documents in its March issue, “HOW AMERICA IS BECOMING A POLICE STATE,” one major way Barack Obama’s “fundamental transformation of America” is manifesting in the changing face of law enforcement – local and state, but especially federal.
The signs are everywhere:
Drones are flying overhead – not in Yemen, but here in the U.S., above your house, perhaps photographing you. The FAA anticipates 10,000 domestic drones in the next few years, and at least one police chief has publicly announced he wants to arm his drones with tear gas and rubber bullets.
Meanwhile, the Transportation Security Administration, having traumatized countless air travelers with its signature nude X-ray imaging and invasive pat-downs of ailing grandmothers and crying 3-year-old handicapped children in wheelchairs, is now expanding from airports to bus terminals and subways.
Even local police forces increasingly resemble an occupying army...

The “blue helmets” apparel is intriguing, as I recall one of the Nostradamus predictions was to beware of the blue helmets. I also seem to recall the U.N. forces wear blue helmets, too.
You have not been paying attention. The oligarchs have built several ‘sites’ where food and water and fuel and perimeter control are stored and waiting. It is the cities where the residents will be upon one another. The oligarchs will be safely hold up and protected, to wait out the slaughter by starvation, disease, and mayhem.
Well done essay ... and right on the money. The political class have been shown that the end is approaching, so they are building their domestic Praetorian class as fast as they can.
“I am confident that most local law enforcement and particularly the US military would not open fire on US citizens, but would likely turn their guns on the oppressors in Washington.”
I’m not so confident about that...
That’s the $64 question. We won’t know until the time comes...
There, fixed it.
Well, here’s the difference though... Americans, other than those in the military, aren’t fighters, and as such won’t be used to having their homes and family members splashed with missiles. That’ll cause a jarring effect they’ve never experienced before. You don’t need to win a war from the air... a few strikes will achieve much for psyops’ sake.
There are roughly 320 million people in the United States so there are probably 100 million residential dwellings here. How many missiles do you think the Federal government has? Hint: It ain’t even a million, or 100,000. Hosni Mubarek and Colonel Gaddafi had missiles, why are they not still in power?
BTW, name one society on present-day Earth where civilians are fighters, by-and-large?
If they pull that crap, citizens are going to start shooting them down. It's just like hunting geese.
You’re FOS.
