Pentagon Prepping for ‘Large Scale Economic Breakdown’

Pentagon Prepping for ‘Large Scale Economic Breakdown’ Anthony Gucciardi by Anthony Gucciardi August 26th, 2013 Updated 08/26/2013 at 1:10 am

High level government documents reveal that the Pentagon is preparing in full force for ‘large scale economic meltdown’ and massive revolt via the US public — exactly what we are criticized for doing.

pentagon-economic-collapse-riotsYou see the Pentagon and agencies like the Department of Defense (DoD) are in full scale emergency readiness in their own words for ‘cataclysmic’ events that are believed to ultimately ignite riots in the face of chaos and economic collapse, and it’s all out in the open. And it’s one of the reasons that we’re seeing such a massive amount of spying on activists of all kinds, alternative news writers and personalities, and basically anyone preparing for themselves.

The US government is dedicated to logging such information into a major database in order to ‘prepare’ for the coming collapse that they are predicting in their own documents for all to see. Collapse predictions that have turned into ‘war games’ by the Pentagon, which in 2010 were orchestrated to prepare for what the Pentagon dubbed ‘large scale economic breakdown’ and the disappearance of essential services like food.

In this same ‘war games’ exercise dedicated to domestic response, exercises were ran in order to prepare for ‘domestic order amid civil unrest’. Military to Stop ‘Domestic Resistance’

A thread that is seen throughout these tests is the concept that civil unrest will unfold and prompt military action against the public. One of the largest examples of this is the US Army’s Strategic Studies Institute paper that talks about about the ‘threat of domestic crises’ that are expected to lead to massive unrest throughout the nation. Spurring more paranoia into the notion that every citizen is a terrorist, the report starts talking about everything from economic collapse to a loss of functional political order brought upon by a ‘hostile group within the United States’ that could access weapons.

In such scenarios, the report discusses how the DoD would then be ‘forced by circumstances’ to come in and stop ‘purposeful domestic resistance or insurgency”:

“DoD might be forced by circumstances to put its broad resources at the disposal of civil authorities to contain and reverse violent threats to domestic tranquility. Under the most extreme circumstances, this might include use of military force against hostile groups inside the United States. Further, DoD would be, by necessity, an essential enabling hub for the continuity of political authority in a multi-state or nationwide civil conflict or disturbance.”

To go along with this, and the idea of the military coming in to stop domestic resistance in the midst of an economic collapse, the Pentagon has gone and created a force consisting of 20,000 troops whose sole purpose is to be available for civil unrest and catastrophes – all based on the 2005 Homeland Security program to prepare for ‘multiple, simultaneous mass casualty incidents‘. Yet again we see this link.

But don’t worry, changes have been made just one month ago to allow for the Pentagon to directly have absolute authority over domestic emergencies and ‘civil disturbance’ at large. As reported in a Long Island news publication and properly summarized by The Guardian as further preparation for some form of domestic meltdown:

“Federal military commanders have the authority, in extraordinary emergency circumstances where prior authorization by the President is impossible and duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation, to engage temporarily in activities that are necessary to quell large-scale, unexpected civil disturbances.”

What does this mean exactly, to engage in the activity necessary to quell large-scale civil disturbances? Well, for one it is the blank check ability to go ahead and stop major protests amid domestic turmoil. The kind of protests we’re seeing around the world, from Egypt to Brazil. The kind of protests where citizens have had enough.

And going by the Pentagon documents mixed with the DoD papers, it appears the military believes America may take to the streets amid an economic collapse or ‘domestic disturbance’ of large caliber. And you can be sure that virtually all citizens that question the government are the targets of military intervention, as we see in the DoD’s own Army Modernisation Strategy, detailing ‘anti-government and radical ideologies that potentially threaten government stability‘ as a major threat.

Yes, you read that right. The DoD is classifying ‘anti-government and radical ideologies’ as something that threatens government stability. When a major ‘domestic disturbance’ comes along that all of these documents are discussing, such as perhaps in the form of mass protests, it’s the ‘anti-government extremists’ they will be coming after.

You cannot compare WW2 to “domestic disturbance”. Will they obey and fire on citizens? You bet. Will they like it? No! If rations are all that stands between them and us, we are in a whole lot more trouble than we think.

Remember one thing, this is a fight against evil. Pure, unadulterated hate! There can only be one winner. There is no compromise. There is no place to run.

Correct. However, this is a Spiritual War. Recommend you employ Spiritual Tools first.

20,000 troops won’t go very far in a country the size of the US

Pull in all troops from around the world and you're looking at 3 million. However, you must station troops overseas so that eleminates a good portion for quelling the citizens. Subtract those who will refuse to play along with hussein and you're looking at probably half. At most, with perks, he could have a million trained troops. With threats and perks, he could build that back up to large numbers of Mmmmm mmmmm Trayvons. However, the Trayvons won't be easy to manage and they'll turn on each other. It won't be a walk in the park but We the People will win.

I think you also need to figure that a good portion of those the won't go along with it won't just sit and watch.

All they have to do is cut off the utilities, the people in the big cities will self destruct.

Big Sis let the cat out of the bag that they have something in the works.

Per our discussion yesterday about hours versus days. Different people will react fast/slower AND with differing propensity for mayhem.

It’s a different twist on normalcy bias:
a. civilised people react to disruption with “it will get fixed soon, it always has in the past”
b. the proto-ferals will react immediately with violence and mayhem because, well, that is their way.

Getting myself home from business travel and my one child still away at school home are my biggest concerns in the event of a fast-arising disruption.

Gotta plan for all reasonable contingencies.

On your CW2 cube, you might ought to find a way to insert a velocity of violence vector on the various axes.

This is why the progressive communists are trying to ruin our military, morally.

“Velocity of violence,” great concept.
Feral criminals will “launch” as soon as the power goes out, because they will assume it will be a short-lived opportunity for major robberies. That rapid reaction will kick off the slide in hours as you said.

I agree on the feral Vv - Velocity of violence. Immediate and fast moving against the usual soft targets- human and retail.

Communications will be a controlling variable on their ‘combat radius’ so to speak, so while they will likely ‘go kinetic’ very rapidly, they won’t be able to sustain effective operations without comms — even if they have working individual and collective transport.

Makes me wonder what the gummint QRF have cooked up from a C3I perspective.

How FAST and to what degree will they shut down social media, texting, personal cell phone traffic, etc?

Will they leave it up to gather intel, and allow the early mayhem to develop and organize, or will they shut it all down except for ‘official’ traffic. dunno. Depends on their intent - benevolent or malevolent. If malevolent, they will allow mayhem to scare the populace into a desired set of cocoons and safe zones. If benevolent, they will work to shut it down as best they can.

BUT, per your ABNB, I feel certain the populace will be called via the EBS (and ‘amber alerts’ and digital road signage) to ‘safe zones’ - which effectively amount to control and redistribution facilities.

REM: keep your Midland’s charged and available. Doubt they’ll kill the CB channels.

Food for thought.

People can joke that it’s just a video game. (not you KC ;) But Fallout pretty much nails it. Those boys did their homework. I am surprised so few see it.

Matt Bracken’s Babalyon story IS fallout without the nukes.

And before it’s over, I do not doubt Zero drops a couple to rid the elites of more populous cities. Or tries to assuming anyone with rank has the guts to stop him.
