No-Fly Zone To Be Enforced By Shoot-To-Kill Order During NATO Summit
CBS2 Chicago ^ | May 2, 2012 | Staff

CHICAGO (CBS) — A new report reveals plans to keep residents and dignitaries safe during the NATO Summit include a no-fly zone, with a shoot-to-kill mandate for those who break the ban.

As CBS 2’s Susanna Song reports, the government is warning small plane pilots that if they enter the no-fly zone during the summit, they may be shot down.

This is no joke. It will be enforced for May 19 to May 21.

The flight advisory was issued by the Federal Aviation Administration. The advisory bans non-commercial aircraft from flying within 10 nautical miles of downtown Chicago and below 18,000 feet.

A nautical mile is about one minute of arc of latitude along any meridian. It amounts to 1,852 meters, or about 1.15078 standard miles.

“The United States Government may use deadly force against the airborne aircraft, if it is determined that the aircraft poses an imminent security threat,” the advisory says. “Be advised that noncompliance with the published (notice to airmen) may result in the use of force.”

The advisory says lesser violations by airmen might result in civil penalties and the suspension of airmen certificates, as well as criminal charges.

The only aircraft allowed to fly within the restricted area include regularly-scheduled commercial passenger and cargo carriers, police, and military planes supporting the Secret Service.

even from the people screaming for bush’s impeachment for doing the same thing.

Actually it was for bush doing a lot less than what obama has done.

No-Fly Zone To Be Enforced By Shoot-To-Kill Order During NATO Summit

Looks like the summit will have looser rules of engagement than Afghanistan.

“? Who exactly is attacking NATO ?”

I have a feeling that NATO will soon be attacking us.

Sure looks as if Spain and England may go to war with South America. The leftist thieves down there deserve some but kicking.

NATO May Decide on Stepping Up Missile Defense in Chicago

I remember back in the early '50s there were Nike misiles deployed at sites along Chicago's lakefront. Supposedly to ward off the Ruskies.

“Sure looks as if Spain and England may go to war with South America.”

They’d likely be fighting against us, since Hussein hates England and stands with the “Maldives” (called Malvinas by Argentina and Falklands by the British).

Hussein has no genuine feelings what-so-ever. That is a part of his character. Sociopath. He will do whatever the Goldman Sacs, McCain Rino’s and Pelosi Dino’s tell him what to do. Which explains why McCain walked the plank again for Emperor Zero’s Afghanistan Photo op. Right now we are married to Europe financially. Granted, if the Titanic Europa is sinking, the powers that be would certainly join in carving up the remains.

Newly published audio this week reveals that Vice President Dick Cheney’s infamous Sept. 11, 2001 order to shoot down rogue civilian aircraft was ignored by military officials, who instead ordered pilots to only identify suspect aircraft.

I think Hussein picked up enough from his mentor to have genuine hatred for all America stands for, and our closest allies.
