More on the Small Wars Journal's insanely provocative essay, which imagines that the US Army will need to be sent into the South to crush an uprising by The Evil White Racist Tea Party Militia.

Let’s turn this media and liberal fueled fantasy: After ten years of race- and immigrant-bashing by “right-wing demagogues” will have whipped white Americans into gang-like attacks on non-whites.”

Into this REALITY: After ten years of race- and immigrant-BAITING by “lwft-wing politicians and the drive-by media”
HAVE whipped black Americans into gang-like attacks on non-blacks.

The Democratts have been planning for war against Americans since they ran research on how much of the US military would be willing to fire on Americans (20% plus). Waco was part of the same trial balloon, with foreign military participation (UK airforce).

Long unbroken line of planning.

It doesn't surprise me, Travis.

Many politicians, and top military, have seen in the nations citizens as much of an enemy as any foreign military.
Let's face it, the nations citizens have as many firearms as a lot of foreign military organizations.

The Gadsen flag is going to become more of a reality as time goes on.

Small Wars Journal has no connection to the military and it’s authors are not currently active military.

That said, this guy Benson appears to be a real piece of work and I’m there are active military who think like him:

All the time I was reading this article, I was thinking, "seriously, the teaparty is NOT advocating armed violence!"

Getting to the last paragraph, I found that the author did indeed make that very clear, and he goes on to say something we all need to hear:

"we must reinforce and broadcast to the world that violence is not the answer .... just as Tea Partiers effectively quashed the allegations of racism, we must police our ranks to insure that no one countenances anything even remotely close to what the Alinsky-inspired left is goading us to do."

I would bet this weeks paycheck that there has been a LOT of requests to ISP’s across the country to locate certain internet posters.

Not exactly targeting Tea party just yet unless the agency finds a “stolen” cache of 500 pounds of ANFO at a Tea party gathering.

First they will do small surgical strikes upon internet posters at selective forums where the fishing is guaranteed to have a catch for them.

And then it will be dirty laundry time against the Tea Party, rumors will spread of nefarious acts and the MSM will get its waters chummed by DHS to get anti-sentiment built.

The second stage of course mandates a massive campaign to paint the Tea party as anti-American radicals, seditionists, persons of lesser mental capability. Of questionable mental capabilty and animal abusers, especially the ones that mistreat the soft cute defenseless kittens.

Our military planners are openly discussing how to kill "Tea Party extremists" who have taken over a small town in the USA.

I don't see any motivation here.

Will the House Armed Services Committee have the cajones to hold hearings on this?

Sadly I suspect not.

IMHO the article is DHS-sponsored in an attempt to suppress Americans from rising up IF it gets politically or racially bad here.

In my opinion the US armed forces would not fight against other Americans. They would lay down their arms first! The military is sworn to first uphold the Constitution and second obey all LAWFUL orders.

Second, the US military does not have sufficient forces here in CONUS at this time to win against a fully armed citizen insurrection of all armed Americans. It would be horrible and bloody, but the Army is not large enough to suppress a determined American citizenry.And remember, many of us are trained veterans, too..... However, if the administration plans to use police and unions or UN Armed Forces, that could change the numbers significantly.

I just hope the Administration is not stupid enough to try that.

The military scenario appears in the July 25, 2012 issue of the respected Small Wars Journal...

Respected? By whom?

When TSHTF, against whom will we be defending ourselves? What preemptive strike would eliminate or reduce the danger?

Based on history - and common sense - I posit that small-government, freedom-loving, family-oriented organizations will never initiate violent rebellions against their own constitutional republics as long as those that serve in government have as their foundation the sovereignty of “We the people”.

“Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.”

The Administration officially Supports King Shamir Shabazz who openly calls white people names on the streets of Philadelphia and says that they should get ready to storm nurseries to kill white babies.

VIDEO

Yet, they think that white people are the enemy.

Travis, I have to ask, what’s it like seeing your cautionary fiction come to life? Must set your mind spinning at times.

And again the Tea Party is violent but the window breaking, police car pooping, wall spraying, homeless shoving, tent raping, occupy isn’t mentioned or treated as peaceful.

I disagree.
The military mind will have its own set of ‘darned if I do, darned if I don’t’ set of compasses going off.
Should the economy be as it is now, the so-called grunt that would have to be called to duty, will have that old argument, nation or career, or job or no money. If it has come to that, those of us whom this grunt might have at the end of his/her barrel, might be unlucky.
There is also the fact that a lot of military members are members of international gangs, with their own mental spin on this situation, which I do not have the data to project what is in their collective hive-mentality brain.
Lastly, how many of the military grunts we may indeed be facing, have as their personal philosophies, those wondrous words spoken by Louis Farrakhan, the Black Panthers, or other great minds of the black separatist groups? Would those folks be acting ‘under orders’, or acting out their beliefs?

ANY military action against American civilians, could or would become the “Lexington/Concord spark”. We have a sitting President that enjoys acting in the manner of King George III. We have a media, that attempts to shout down anyone that says “the king has no clothes”. We have a nation of stoop-sitters, with their hand out, waitng on the benevolence of the king, and who swears their allegiance, and forfeits their freedom to him, for a loaf of bread, acarton of eggs, and a jar of milk (don’t forget the cellphone). All these ingredients wear on those Americans who know what this country was, before 2008, and what the wasted and spoiled potential is, due to this Fascist king.

I, for one, do NOT swear ANYTHING, to this sitting President, because he has not the mettle. As a military veteran, I call this man a metrosexual eunuch. His name deserves the same ‘reverence’ as a man named Haman.

Given actual news events, rather than bigoted speculation, maybe they should be preparing to handle a big-city take-over by violent mobs of minorities.

Because small militias of minorities are already committing violent acts throughout our cities, pretty much on a daily basis, and getting more brazen about it all the time.

The authors have really done a marvelous service. By expsing their thinking and how to deal with it, doing the EXACT OPPOSITE will leave them with no contingency.
