USA Police State 2009: Pentagon to Militarize USwith 20, 000 armed troops + Naomi Wolf warnings etc

Dear All:
Here is more shocking news from Dec 1st that I missed seeing at the
time which is further to an earlier post of mine summarizing Naomi
Wolfe's insights on fascism and its trend in the US exemplified at
the time by the announcement that a 3000 strong battallion of troops
returning from Iraq was being commissioned to patrol the steets of
the US.
We see in this article below the further escalation of that trend In
direct violation of the Posse Comitatus Act, which forbids military
troops from playing a role in domestic law enforcement. The Pentagon
has announced plans to station 20,000 armed, uniformed troops inside
the United States [by 2011] where they will walk the streets, ready
[presumedly] to "respond to terrorism events." In fact the article
goes on to explore underlying roots of the move linked to the
possible dissolution of the US into state or regional governments
should total financial collapse occur. The author suggests the
purpose is to have a military force to prevent the breakup of the
United States of America.
"There will be a time when Washington is so bankrupt (both
financially and morally), so corrupt and so far beyond saving that
intelligent states like California will simply declare themselves to
be sovereign nations." and that
" With a defunct currency and the inevitable riots and social unrest
that always follows the massive theft of money from the people, the
U.S. will be ripe for Balkanization, or the breaking up of regions
that will declare their own sovereignty."
" Even today, Hawaii and Vermont are already talking secession. Many
regions of Oregon and Texas are also in the same discussions. If
Washington becomes weak, you can expect to see the fragmentation of
the nation."

Police State 2009: Pentagon to Militarize USA with 20,000 Armed
Troops by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, December 1, 2008

In direct violation of the Posse Comitatus Act, which forbids
military troops from playing a role in domestic law enforcement, the
Pentagon has announced plans to station 20,000 armed, uniformed
troops inside the United States where they will walk the streets,
ready to "respond to terrorism events," says the Pentagon.

It's against the law, but since when did the Bush Administration or
the Pentagon pay any attention to law in the first place?

Here at NaturalNews, we've warned about the coming police state for
many years. Now it is upon us, with the mass militarization of our
cities and streets. It won't be long before we'll start hearing
"papers please" as we try to move about our own cities in a nation
many people foolishly believe to still be "free."

This recent push, of course, stems from the New York subway threat,
which for all we know was entirely made up by the U.S. government for
precisely this purpose -- to scare the population into accepting
20,000 troops on the streets. It's a lesson the Bush Administration
learned well with the 9/11 terrorist attacks: People will gladly give
up their freedoms if you scare them to death with real (or
engineered) terrorist events first.

Oh, and don't forget what the terrorist hate us for. "They hate
America because it's free," say the war apologists. So their plan, it
seems, is to take away America's freedoms before the terrorists do!
So now, with 20,000 troops walking the streets brandishing military
weapons, it is the U.S. population that will be terrorized by the
aggressive military presence. Think about it: When you walk into an
area with lots of military personnel sporting assault rifles, do you
feel comfort, or do you feel fear? Normal people feel more fear. They
intuitively think, "Gee, there must be something dangerous here, or
there wouldn't be armed military personnel standing guard," and they
feel a sense of apprehension.

The real reason for 20,000 troops?

It's ridiculous to think that 20,000 troops can offer any meaningful
response to a terrorism event. If a dirty bomb goes off, or a
chemical weapons attack takes place, the only thing left to do will
be to clean up the bodies, and you don't need 20,000 military troops
to do that (National Guard troops can handle it just fine).

20,000 troops also aren't going to prevent a terrorist attack. Do you
think the terrorists walk around in orange jumpsuits with the word
"terrorist" painted on the back? No, they blend in like everybody
else. They easily got by airport security in 2001, and they can
easily make their way through the streets of the USA in 2009,
regardless of a military presence.

So what's the REAL reason for stationing 20,000 military troops in
the U.S.?

Think about it. Historically, during what times have military troops
ever been used to protect the centralization of power?

If you've read much history -- especially European history -- you
probably suspect, as I do, that the real purpose of the 20,000 troops
is to have a military force to prevent the breakup of the United
States of America.

You see, a financial collapse in Washington is imminent. This Federal
Reserve bailout is just short-term cover that accomplishes nothing.
You can't save an economy from endless bad debt by creating yet more
bad debt. With the derivatives market hovering somewhere beyond $500
trillion, it will be impossible for the Fed to bail out all the
failures without bankrupting the U.S. taxpayers and destroying the
U.S. currency first.

With a defunct currency and the inevitable riots and social unrest
that always follows the massive theft of money from the people, the
U.S. will be ripe for Balkanization, or the breaking up of regions
that will declare their own sovereignty. One Russian analyst famously
predicted several weeks ago that the United States would break into
seven new nations, each with its own laws, its own military and its
own political power.

What's the best way to prevent such a breakup? Show up with 20,000
troops and force the member states to back down at gunpoint.

But you might ask why wouldn't the federal government just use the
National Guard to accomplish this? Why does it need Pentagon troops?
The answer is simple: Because the National Guard troops are
controlled by the STATES.. It is, in fact, the National Guard troops
that will be fighting for the freedom of their regions, fighting to
break off from the tyrannical federal government that has already
engineered the greatest financial swindle in history and now wants to
maintain power over all the states, too.

This is the new civil war that will be shaping up: National Guard
troops vs. the Pentagon's troops. And that is why the Pentagon is
calling 20,000 troops into the homeland right now: It's preparing for
a civil war and the potential breakup of the nation.

There will be a time when Washington is so bankrupt (both financially
and morally), so corrupt and so far beyond saving that intelligent
states like California will simply declare themselves to be sovereign
nations. Although there may be the threat of military force to
prevent such actions in the short term, ultimately Washington will be
powerless to stop it because it will be unable to fund the military
effort with worthless U.S. dollars. And if just one state
successfully breaks away from the union, it will set a precedent that
other states will follow.

Even today, Hawaii and Vermont are already talking secession. Many
regions of Oregon and Texas are also in the same discussions. If
Washington becomes weak, you can expect to see the fragmentation of
the nation. It will likely be a bloody event, complete with Martial
Law, food shortages, money supply problems and the works.

He's been predicting this for many years, and although his radio show
might be described by some as "inflammatory," he's been right on the
money on issues like this one, and he has accurately predicted the
mass militarization of the United States by the Pentagon. Check out

Pentagon to Detail Troops to Bolster Domestic Security (December 1,
2008)
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-

The U.S. military expects to have 20,000 uniformed troops inside the
United States by 2011 trained to help state and local officials
respond to a nuclear terrorist attack or other domestic catastrophe,
according to Pentagon officials.The long-planned shift in the Defense
Department's role in homeland security was recently backed with
funding and troop commitments after years of prodding by Congress and
outside experts, defense analysts said.There are critics of the
change, in the military and among civil liberties groups and
libertarians who express concern that the new homeland emphasis
threatens to strain the military and possibly undermine the Posse
Comitatus Act, a 130-year-old federal law restricting the military's
role in domestic law enforcement. But the Bush administration and
some in Congress have pushed for a heightened homeland military role
since the middle of this decade, saying the greatest domestic threat
is terrorists exploiting the proliferation of weapons of mass
destruction. CLIP
