U.S. Military Is Preparing For Martial law




U.S. Military Is Preparing For Martial law
We are of course not preparing for Sharia law as we should be, but our tyrannical government is instead preparing for a little war of their own, against who I wonder???

Gen. Tommy Franks, who led the U.S. military operations to liberate Iraq, said in an interview that …“if the U.S. is attacked with a weapon of mass destruction, the Constitution will likely be discarded in favor of a military form of government”.

First our government destroys our economy, (watch a video by Fred Thompson) then the government anticipates riots in the streets because of their orchestrated economic crash so they can disregard the constitution and create a totalitarian dictatorship in the form of “Martial Law” and use the excuse that---well we are being attacked by the terrorist that they have been supporting for years.

A new report from the U.S. Army War College discusses the use of American troops to quell civil unrest brought about by a worsening economic crisis.

The report from the War College’s Strategic Studies Institute warns that the U.S. military must prepare for a “violent, strategic dislocation inside the United States” that could be provoked by “unforeseen economic collapse” or “loss of functioning political and legal order.”

Entitled “Known Unknowns: Unconventional ‘Strategic Shocks’ in Defense Strategy Development, the report was produced by Nathan Freier, a recently retired Army lieutenant colonel who is a professor at the college — the Army’s main training institute for prospective senior officers.

He writes: “To the extent events like this involve organized violence against local, state, and national authorities and exceed the capacity of the former two to restore public order and protect vulnerable populations, the DOD [Department of Defense] would be required to fill the gap.” Freier continues: “Widespread civil violence inside the United States would force the defense establishment to reorient priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order”

An American government and defense establishment lulled into complacency by a long-secure domestic order would be forced to rapidly divest some or most external security commitments in order to address rapidly expanding human insecurity at home.”

International Monetary Fund Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn warned last week of riots and unrest in global markets if the ongoing financial crisis is not addressed and lower-income households are beset with credit constraints and rising unemployment, the Phoenix Business Journal reported.

Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma and Rep. Brad Sherman of California disclosed that Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson discussed a worst-case scenario as he pushed the Wall Street bailout in September, and said that scenario might even require “a declaration of martial law”.

The Army College report states: “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.”

One can only wonder what these hostile groups might consist of, is it Islamic terrorists, or is it you and me. One can only conclude that the thrust to disarm American Citizens in violation of the Second Amendment, might be included in this plan of Martial law of the DOD. Moreover if it were the terrorists that the DOD is planning a war against then why would the Government want to disarm American citizens? This of course leaves only you and me...

“Further, the 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.”
He concludes this section of the report by observing:the “DOD is already challenged by stabilization abroad. Imagine the challenges associated with doing so on a massive scale at home."

The Defense Department has made plans to deploy 20,000 troops nationwide by 2011 to help state and local officials respond to emergencies.

The 130-year-old Posse Comitatus Act’ (Wikipedia), prevents the standing army or the U.S. military from being used against it’s own citizens such as it did illegally in the Waco and the Ruby Ridge incidents. Check out what the USDOJ & Government Watch has to say about the Posse Comitatus Act Passed to prevent exactly what is now being planned.

THE BOTTOM LINE: This is what happens when we allow our government to treat our Constitution as a used piece of toilet paper…

Think about it…
