Withdrawn a training manual question that linked protesters across the United States to terrorism,if that doesn’t reek of Obama nothing does or should I say O.B.L.?

[driftdiver]

Someone wrote this ‘test’ and those same someones give orders. Those same someones decide who to promote and who to discharge.

I hope you’re right but world history proves you are wrong.

When an incremental approach is used people will do almost anything. Sure some will resist and they will be put to the sideline and eventually treated the same way as the target individuals.

When faced with a me or them situation most people will chose their life and their families vs the life of someone their govt is focused on destroying.

[driftdiver]

I wouldn’t doubt they are already planning the ballot box stuffing for the 2010 elections.

[verity]

The military will not participate in unlawful acts.

[Iscool]

This report will only ANGER more Americans.

Americans better get angry while it's still legal...

I bet you if you were to talk to any law enforcement ( off the record ) people who have to work during one of the right wing protest, they would tell you that they feel safer around right wingers and probably interact with the protesters and talk.... not so with the leftist protest.

[Prophet in the wilderness]

So if anything were to happen were it came to the point either to obey a order from a dictator, or side with the people, our military would most likely side with the people and up hold our constitution.

Cops have homes and neighbors too. I suspect they would feel a lot better having an armed right winger next door to their wife and kids while he’s working than some moonbat who calls him a fascist thug because he has a job to do.

I wonder if this is the reason what is going on at the Pentagon and those bogus manuals that the Pentagon has.

It's about Rosa Brooks ....
If Rosa Brooks is directly involved in these reports that are coming from the Pentagon, then, she should be forced to resign and or fired for these bogus reports.


I borrowed the comments below from another Freeper that was posted a few months ago, only the very last lines below that are my comments.

( " I totally disagree with most of what is at this link, but this was pretty eye-brow raising.
She ( Rosa Brooks ) teaches at Georgetown Law.
She is the daughter of the Socialist nutcake Barbara Ehrenreich.
She has also been a consultant for Human Rights Watch, a board member of Amnesty International USA, and a member of the Executive Council of the American Society of International Law.
She is active in political causes. She hates the United States and what it stands for.
She wrote columns full of girlish enthusiasm about Obama last year, and in 2004 was a foreign policy advisor to the Kerry-Edwards campaign.
AND SHE IS GOING TO BE MADE PRIVY TO ALL OF THIS COUNTRY'S DEFENSE AND NATIONAL SECURITY SECRETS, and is going to be advising on our defense policy.
And remember, her mentor, Harold Koh, advocates a "transnational legal process" and criticizes the U.S. legal system for its failure to "obey global norms." He has also state in public that Islamic law could apply in U.S. courts. 1 posted on Tuesday, April 14, 2009 11:43:33 PM by La Lydia " )

Barbara Ehrenreich is a big time Feminist, and about 8 years ago I remember reading a article of her speaking at a collage, and her agenda and teaching is to send trained feminist to go into all our institutions, collages, churches, schools and " SUBVERT " them, and change them .

One side of my sign on the 4th: Dissent is Patriotic. Protest is Patriotic.

“Useful” and “Necessity” are always “The Tyrant’s Plea.” C.S.Lewis

“The military will not participate in unlawful acts.”

That would make America different than any other country in the history of the world.

And while America HAS been different it is RAPIDLY becoming the same.

[Doe Eyes]

The same reference was in last years training materials also.

DOD now considers protests to be "low level terrorism"

[Doe Eyes]

Oops. Had the date wrong. This is the same story.

“That would make America different than any other country in the history of the world.”

It is.

[driftdiver]

Did you read the rest of my post? The things that make us different are being ‘changed’.

Growing up I never thought a FBI agent would shoot a unarmed woman holding a baby, burn dozens of women and children to death, or confiscate property without proof of a crime.

All that has been done.

I am a retired soldier; my son is a field grade officer on active duty. This is the source of my beliefs.

[Alas Babylon!]

Depends on the dictator. I think it is far more likely that the military would launch a coup against an out-of-control Left wing president and/or Congress than a conservative one.

Still, I think it unlikely they'd attempt a coup at all.

If would have to be a very clear and massive case of abuse of power. Perhaps these things might cause it to be considered, but I can only think of two, as follows:

—Ordering Republicans or large amounts of citizens to be rounded up and killed for no reason except they disagreed politically.

—Massive national and complete gun confiscation, that would lead to violence by citizens resisting and the military ordered to fight and kill those same citizens.

These type of things might launch a coup, but not all generals and admirals, and heck, other officers and NCOs would agree. It would not last long in any case, and in that I mean the military might apprehend the president and congressional leadership and ask right-minded, non-partisan officials to step in and stop the madness, conduct impeachments, etc. It would very difficult for them to try to hang on to power which would simply trash the Constitution—due to their oaths, but there is the clause about “All enemies, foreign and domestic”.

The problem with that clause is it's always been the political officials who get to define the enemies. When the military starts self-defining it, all bets are off, but I still contend that they would be much more likely to see such enemies coming from the Left.

Good for you and your son, I’m a disabled vet. I’m also a student of history.

What we are seeing is a massive power grab and is a repeat of what has happened elsewhere. We all know how those events turned out.
