An analyst informs that the US has its army on standby against the Occupy and student movement as the economic situation in America deteriorates day by day.<\/h3>\n
As previously reported, the US has began a deployment of 20,000 troops in the US to deal with civil unrest in the even of a catastrophic even such as a massive large scale terror attacks or economic collapse .<\/p>\n
\nPentagon Deploying 20,000 Troops Within The United States To Prepare For Civil Unrest In Event Of Economic Collapse<\/a><\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The pentagon has announced plans to deploy a 20,000 strong internal troop force within the united states over the next two years civil unrest in the even of a catastrophic even such as a massive large scale terror attacks or economic collapse \u2014 thus, dovetailing into the current troop and equipment movements reported around the country reported by truckers<\/a> and many more sightings by others<\/a>.<\/p>\n
This has raised fears that the United States is moving ever closer to a total militarized police state, and some wonder if people will become desensitized to the implementation of martial law if once they become conditioned to seeing the military roaming the American streets on a daily basis. Others suggest the announcement of the troop deployment is part of some unknown larger plan being implement and due to the coincidental timing with the now apparently related pre-positioning of troops equipment and (NOTAM) No-Fly Zones in the Continental United States (CONUS)<\/a>.
\n<\/em><\/p>\nOther speculation this may correlate with the debt ceiling talks which now seem to haven fallen apart and entered into the point of no return or if the announcement is related to recently reported nuclear threats from reactors in danger within the US<\/a>.<\/p>\n
The Russia today video attached below covers the many of the questions fears and shows a wide range of reactions from U.S. citizens about the Pentagon\u2019s announcement of stationing 20,000 troops within the United States.<\/p>\n

Then came news that our beloved Senate has passed SR 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act Bill.<\/p>\n
As I have previously reported, the final reconciled version of the bill\u00a0 may one day prove to be the declaration of World War 3.<\/p>\n
\nCongress To Vote On Declaration Of World War 3 \u2014 An Endless War With No Borders, No Clear Enemies<\/a><\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
The United States Congress is set to vote on legislation that authorizes the official start of World War 3.<\/h3>\n
The legislation authorizes the President of the United States to take unilateral military action against all nations, organizations, and persons, both domestically and abroad, who are alleged to be currently or who have in the past supported or engaged in hostilities or who have provided aid in support of hostilities against the United States or any of its coalition allies.<\/p>\n
The legislation removes the requirement of congressional approval for the use of military force and instead gives the President totalitarian dictatorial authority to engage in any and all military actions for an indefinite period of time.<\/p>\n
It even gives the President the authority to launch attacks against American Citizens inside the United States with no congressional oversight whatsoever.<\/p>\n
Just to recap, because that was a mouthful:<\/p>\n
\n
- Endless War<\/strong> \u2013 The war will continue until all hostilities are terminated, which will never happen.<\/li>\n
- No Borders<\/strong> \u2013 The president will have the full authority to launch military strikes against any country, organization or person, including against U.S citizens on U.S soil.<\/li>\n
- Unilateral Military Action<\/strong> \u2013 Full authority to invade any nation at any time with no congressional approval required.<\/li>\n
- No Clearly Defined Enemy<\/strong> \u2013 The US can declare or allege anyone a terrorist or allege they are or have been supporting \u201chostilities\u201d against the US and attack at will.<\/li>\n
- Authorization To Invade Several Countries<\/strong> \u2013 The president would have full authority to invade Iran, Syria, North Korea, along with several other nations in Africa and the Middle East and even Russia and China under the legislation all of which are \u201cknow\u201d to have supported and aided hostilities against the United States.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Furthermore, the bill will allow the military to treat American Citizens \u2013 such as Occupy Wall Street protestors \u2013 as terrorists by labeling them as threats to national security, and detain them indefinitely in military prisons.<\/p>\n
\nPlease take action to stop the passage of S.\u00a01867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, because if this passes it will be mean that everyone who is occupying could be arrested and held with out charges indefinitely.<\/span><\/h4>\n
S.1867\u00a0represents a very dangerous tipping point.\u00a0We need to take action NOW!<\/span><\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n
UPDATE III:<\/strong>\u00a0The Senate\u00a0rejected the Udall amendment 38-60<\/a> [meaning the Military can now lock up American Citizens and hold them indefinitely without trial or charge]<\/p>\n
\nWhile nearly all Americans head to family and friends to celebrate Thanksgiving, the Senate is gearing up for a vote on Monday or Tuesday that goes to the very heart of who we are as Americans. The Senate will be voting on a bill that will direct American military resources not at an enemy shooting at our military in a war zone, but at American citizens and other civilians far from any battlefield \u2014 even people in the United States itself.<\/p>\n
Senators need to hear from you<\/strong><\/a>, on whether you think your front yard is part of a \u201cbattlefield\u201d and if any president can send the military anywhere in the world to imprison civilians without charge or trial.<\/p>\n
The Senate is going to vote on whether Congress will give this president\u2014and every future president \u2014\u00a0the power<\/a>\u00a0to order the military to pick up and imprison without charge or trial civilians anywhere in the world. Even Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) raised his concerns about the NDAA detention provisions during last night\u2019s Republican debate. The power is so broad that even U.S. citizens could be swept up by the military and the military could be used far from any battlefield, even within the United States itself.<\/p>\n
The worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial provision<\/a>\u00a0is in S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, which will be on the Senate floor on Monday.\u00a0The bill was drafted in secret\u00a0by Sens. Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.) and passed in a closed-door committee meeting, without even a single hearing.<\/p>\n
I know it sounds incredible. New powers to use the military worldwide, even within the United States? Hasn\u2019t anyone told the Senate that Osama bin Laden is dead, that the president is pulling all of the combat troops out of Iraq and trying to figure out how to get combat troops out of Afghanistan too? And American citizens and people picked up on American or Canadian or British streets being sent to military prisons indefinitely without even being charged with a crime. Really? Does anyone think this is a good idea? And why now?<\/p>\n
The answer on why now is nothing more than election season politics. The White House, the Secretary of Defense, and the Attorney General have all said that the indefinite detention provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act are harmful and counterproductive.\u00a0The White House has even threatened a veto. But Senate politics has propelled this bad legislation to the Senate floor.<\/p>\n
But there is\u00a0a way to stop this dangerous legislation<\/a>. Sen. Mark Udall (D-Colo.) is offering the\u00a0Udall Amendment<\/a>\u00a0that will delete the harmful provisions and replace them with a requirement for an orderly Congressional review of detention power. The Udall Amendment will make sure that the bill matches up with American values.<\/p>\n
In support of this harmful bill, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) explained that the bill will \u201cbasically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield\u201d and people can be imprisoned without charge or trial \u201cAmerican citizen or not.\u201d Another supporter, Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) also declared that the bill is needed because \u201cAmerica is part of the battlefield.\u201d<\/p>\n
The solution is the\u00a0Udall Amendment<\/a>; a way for the Senate to say no to indefinite detention without charge or trial anywhere in the world where any president decides to use the military. Instead of simply going along with a bill that was drafted in secret and is being jammed through the Senate,\u00a0the Udall Amendment<\/a>deletes the provisions and sets up an orderly review of detention power. It tries to take the politics out and put American values back in.<\/p>\n
In response to proponents of the indefinite detention legislation who contend that the bill \u201capplies to American citizens and designates the world as the battlefield,\u201d and that the \u201cheart of the issue is whether or not the United States is part of the battlefield,\u201d Sen. Udall disagrees, and says that we can win this fightwithout worldwide war and worldwide indefinite detention<\/a>.<\/p>\n
The senators pushing the indefinite detention proposal have made their goals very clear that they want an okay for a worldwide military battlefield, that even extends to your hometown. That is an extreme position that will forever change our country.<\/p>\n
Now is the time to stop this bad idea.\u00a0Please urge your senators to vote YES on the Udall Amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act.<\/a><\/p>\n
UPDATE I:\u00a0<\/strong>Don\u2019t be confused by anyone claiming that the indefinite detention legislation does not apply to American citizens. It does. There is an exemption for American citizens from the mandatory detention requirement (section 1032 of the bill), but no exemption for American citizens from the authorization to use the military to indefinitely detain people without charge or trial (section 1031 of the bill). So, the result is that, under the bill, the military has the power to indefinitely imprison American citizens, but it does not have to use its power unless ordered to do so.<\/p>\n
But you don\u2019t have to believe us. Instead, read what one of the bill\u2019s sponsors,Sen. Lindsey Graham said about it on the Senate floor: \u201c1031, the statement of authority to detain, does apply to American citizens and it designates the world as the battlefield, including the homeland.\u201d<\/p>\n
There you have it \u2014 indefinite military detention of American citizens without charge or trial. And the Senate is likely to vote on it Monday or Tuesday.<\/p>\n
UPDATE II:\u00a0<\/strong>The debate on NDAA has begun.\u00a0Your Senator needs to hear from you RIGHT\u00a0NOW!<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0>><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
If you think it is a far stretch that Occupy Wall Street protestors could or would ever be treated as terrorists \u2013 think again. In fact, they are already being listed as a terrorist group along side with Al-Qaeda on documents being disseminated to \u201ctrusted\u201d anti-terrorism partners.<\/p>\n

Occupy Wall Street protestors are now being listed as a Domestic Terrorist Group being disseminated on a list that includes Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations<\/h3>\n
We now have our first confirmation that Occupy Wall Street is being labeled as a Domestic Terrorist Threat and protestors now being labeled as possible domestic terrorists. Don\u2019t hesitate to think for a single second that agencies across the entire US agencies haven\u2019t already done the same exact thing.<\/p>\n
Perhaps more alarming is the photo of the original police document that has secretly handed \u201ctrusted\u201d anti-terrorism partners has been removed from twitter.<\/p>\n

Be it civil unrest due to the super committee budget cuts or the a rapidly deteriorating economy that could become a depression greater than the Great Depression all signs indicate the government is preparing the US military for all out civil unrest. Be it the European Debt Crisis, the complete collapse of the US economy due to cancerous corporate greet and parasitic Wall Street Banks,\u00a0 Peak Oil or the truth finally being revealed about the true extent of the Fukushima nuclear meltdown on thing is clear \u2013 the Army is being being mobilized for a domestic deployment on US soil against US citizen.<\/p>\n
In fact, there has breaking news today from Political Analyst Rodney Shakespeare, who says the Army is now being put on standby to be mobilized against Occupy Wall Street protestors at any moment.<\/p>\n
\nRodney Shakespeare: The authorities though are getting nervous and even vicious toward the protesters. The army is being readied to move in. A law will allow the US government to disappear anybody \u2013 there\u2019s fascism for you. They may censor the internet; and there are demands for war to hide the true situation.<\/p>\n
And the reason for all this is in fact the overall economic situation. If you start with Europe where the Euro could be weeks even days away from collapse, that could result with the sovereign debt of Europe being defaulted. That will mean billions even trillion of payments by the USA banks, which hold the derivatives or the insurance. But they don\u2019t have the money to pay.<\/p>\n
Recently the Bank of America moved 70 trillion \u2013 that\u2019s 70 trillion dollars worth of derivatives to a Bank of America commercial holding company, which is government insured. Now, 70 trillion is larger than the global economy.<\/p>\n
So if you put it all together the USA is getting very very nervous that the whole thing is about to blow up and of course at that point the protests and demonstrations in the USA will multiply by a factor of perhaps three or five and they are getting ready to go in with a fascist suppression.<\/p>\n
The protesters are actually representing not just deep unease, but the nasty reality of 20 percent unemployment overall with a 40 percent unemployment amongst youth groups, blacks and Hispanics \u2013 As for the homelessness, it is hidden. Homelessness is now out in the woodlands and scrublands away from general perception, but it is rising very fast as is also the number of people who are on food stamps.<\/p>\n
So it is not just a question of the courage of the protesters \u2013 and they are being brave \u2013 it\u2019s that the situation is deteriorating very rapidly. And the authorities can see that not only the nitty gritty detail of the population is getting worse, but they can see that the overall banking collapse is getting worse. So one way or another the authorities are showing signs of vicious as a prelude to what will be panic. And I\u2019m afraid with panic will come irresponsible violence.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
