US Military Put On 18hr Alert For Domestic Deployment

[Stand Your Ground]

Editors Note: I want to start out by making it very clear that the following article is based on speculation,
however the information could serve as a heads up early warning system
if an event was to happen. Due to the fact that the maker of this video
is military, has extensive contacts and is a trusted source of
information, this deserves a write up.





As of Thursday, the U.S. military has been put on alert status “Domestic Standby”.

Andrew (YouTuber – SmokinJoeTrainer) released a video Saturday

September 25, 2010 stating that the 82nd Airborn Division has been
mobilized for the Dept. of Homeland Security.







Andrew described the soldiers that leaked the orders for the 18 hour
rotating standby as unhappy and even mad about the orders and potential
scenarios outlined in the briefings.



Each battalion of the 82nd Airborn will be on rotation, as reported
by Andrew. A Special Forces Ranger from Hunter Army airfield was noted
saying that they were trained on QRF (Quick Reaction Force) details as
well as other topics in the briefings which included “plans for rounding up civilians, the potential issuance of less lethal equipment, the use of the LRAD”.


Apparently a new rules of engagement was issued and included: “Don’t detain someone unless you feel threatened or they are pointing a gun”


It was also suggested to some that they get their “Bug-out Bags”
ready by the end of the weekend. This raised concern with a few in the
group as well as the fact that the higher-ups did not even know the
details of what is to come. They were told that they would be filled in
on the details this coming Tuesday.


The quickly moving information through the ranks suggests that this
event might be more immanent than just a drill, or training session.


Updates from this evening during a BlogTV Show in Andrews Room included: “Norfolk Naval Station and 29 Palms are confirmed to be on high alert.”


Jeff Webber from Network1776.org (http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3Lm5ldHdvcmsxNzc2Lm9yZy8=) popped in explaining how he knows just about as much as anyone else at this point, but went on to say ” I was told that at 2:15 am last night 2 Sargents that belong to the 82nd were killed in a traffic accident “. If this proves to be true it might raise an eyebrow or two do to the timing of such events. Webber then went on to talk about the alien agenda and earthquakes.


As weber pointed out during the live transmission.” All we are doing at this point is speculating”.[/URL]

[FreeFocus]

network1776.org...LOL.

I smell conspiracy theories.

[Hexen]

I think this is coming from a conspiracy website. Although we know that that the Bourgeoisie have deployed Militaries as attempts to crush rebellions in the past as their just there to protect them and 'their' capital and I don't think the U.S. is any different (which is the true definition of the 2nd amendment really means unlike most people realize).

[gorillafuck]

Why would the US military be deployed in the US right now? That doesn't make any sense at all. There's not even anything for it to put down. Also, this is from a conspiracy theory website and openly says that it's speculation. I can say with 100% certainty that this isn't true.

[Hexen]

That's what conspiracy theories are in a nutshell, just nothing more than speculations wrapped with FUD that usually have right-wing agendas behind them.

[bcbm]

i'm gonna keep my bug out bag ready to go, all the same.

[danyboy27]

i dont know if this thing is true, but all i know is that the way the dow jones act since the last 2 months is verry erratic. even tho the economic bad news keep coming, the dow is not incredibly high, its just not natural.

if for some reason the us governement have been creating a bubble in order to stop the previous market collapse, and that they know its gonna pop soon, well, they are just taking their precautions.

[Communist Pear]

If it looks like conspiracy theories, smells like conspiracy theories and tastes like conspiracy theories, it's probably conspiracy theories. :rolleyes:

[Os Cangaceiros]

LOL do you have any idea what would happen if the military was deployed in the US to round people up (presumably to be put in re-education camps, lol)? Generally the reason that governments like the United States don't call in the troops until "shit gets real" is that individual servicemen have a tendency to not follow orders when the enemy is their own countrymen. Ever heard of the Oath Keepers?

Needless to say, we're pretty far from a situation where shit has become real, so I wouldn't worry about the coming death squads just yet. :lol:

(I guess a serious addressal of this is probably a little more than it deserves, considering the source.)

[AK]

Inb4 the Tea Party claims this is an act of communist terrorism.

[Stand Your Ground]

Well I'm not exactly saying it's true, I just reposted it cause I thought it was interesting, after the FBI raids, this happening wouldn't surprise me.

Also found this as well:

[The Douche]

No such thing as a "special forces ranger".

[RedScare]

Sounds like a bunch of Alex Jones bullshit. There's not even any reason to do such a thing at the moment.

[Magón]

Ah hell, now we've got a military Coup on our hands. ('36 Spain anyone?) :laugh:

What about when the National Guard was used to put down labor strikes with bullets in the 19th century? Or how about when half of the deployed National Guard became a revolutionary army in 1877 to which the US sent in federal troops to shoot National Guard units that defected to the revolutionary forces?

I agree we don't have to worry about the US Army rounding people to camps, what we have to worry about is the US Army resolving unrest with bullets like they did in the past.

LOL you clearly don't know much about the Great Upheaval strike. There were no "revolutionary forces"...it was a general strike that spiraled out of control, but the strikers were not trying to topple state power.

Over 70% of soldiers today say that they would disobey a direct order to fire on U.S. civilians.

[Kassad]

I heard that we're all invited to hide at Alex Jones' place when the martial law hits. He has all three seasons of Arrested Development, so it should be a good time.

revolutionary army

Couldn't have seen that coming.

[Psy]

LOL you clearly don't know much about the Great Upheaval strike. There were no "revolutionary forces"...it was a general strike that spiraled out of control, but the strikers were not trying to topple state power.

Spiraled out of control? You mean like how in Lebanon, Pennsylvania a defected National Guard company marched down the streets declaring their solidarity with the strikers (meaning they technically were at that point a revolutionary army) to cheering crowds seeing them as a revolutionary army. If there was no one that was trying to topple state power why would they cheer the National Guard defecting to their side and having a military parade as a revolutionary army against the state? Or how about in Altoona, Pennsyvania after the National Guard surrendered the workers formed their own militia to kept the peace? Or in Reading, Pennsylvania where a guerrilla force was quickly created that went to the task of sabotaging the rail line?

Oh and lets not forget a quote from the rebellion:

All you have to do, gentlemen, for you have the numbers, is to unite on one idea—that the workingmen shall rule the country. What man makes, belongs to him, and the workingmen made this country

And you telling me there was no revolutionary forces?

That still wouldn't stop the goverment using them as a stick against labor if they got desperate.

[Adil3tr]

I think these kind of orders or whatever have happened before, they don't mean anything.

[Martin Blank]

Shit, I'm there. :D

[Hexen]

I noticed that these types of conspiracy theories are just cleverly used metaphors of actual fears of a working class revolution ( I.E. the "Military"/"Martial Law" since Military are also working class...get it?) taking the bourgeoisie's capital and private property away (The gameplay trailer for Bioshock Infinite sums it up quite well "They'll take your guns!, They'll take your wife!, They'll take your business!, They'll take your life!") and join everyone else to lose their "individuality" (i.e. "concentration camps") which the whole thing becomes laughable once you think about it:laugh:

[Ele'ill]

That article was full of inaccuracies. Perhaps my military lingo is out of date or incorrect but 'Special Forces Ranger' doesn't make much sense- Special Forces indicates Army Special Operations. Rangers are the fast deployment specialized infantry that are considered Special Operations. Airborne is considered Infantry- Special Operations Capable.

The only thing a mass military controlled round up of domestic civilians would do is cause mass desertions and fucking chaos.

"Hi Mom, don't scream when we put the potatoe sack over your head or we'll have to execute you in the street in front of your neighbors."

[Red Commissar]

Well, it's been 18 hours but clearly the government is misleading us. Just to be safe I'm keeping a copy of the constitution in my backpocket and a picture of the greatest human being to grace this world, President Reagan. Tin foil will help too.

[deLarge]

Whenever someone on the right cries about how Obama is going to use the military to start a Marxist Socialist coup to start a revolution -- I can't help but get all excited and think "REALLY? REALLY? Where do I sign up?"

[Martin Blank]

Eighteen-hour ready standby orders are not new. What is new would be placing them under the direction of the Dept. of Homeland Security, and not the Army's Northern Command. Hitherto, NorCom has been the command for deployment of military within the borders of the U.S. To move that over to DHS is where the cause for concern comes in for me. If NorCom and the Bush-era changes to domestic deployment weren't enough of a trashing of the Posse Comitatus law, giving over command and control of an Army division to the likes of DHS, the only purpose of which would be domestic policing, is completely trashing it.

[deLarge]

Hey, look, they updated the article. It now reads:



U.S. Military NOT on 18 Hour Alert For Domestic Deployment


We posted an article about this rumor in order to weed out the fact from fiction. Shepard laid out the latest corporate rhetoric(which is still very relevant) and put forth why the 82nd would be deployed. The article we posted clearly mentioned that this was pure speculation but put forth possiblities as to why it COULD be happening.
This is a great example of people working together. Various groups and activists checked with their sources and it became clear that this is simply not true. The initial reports came from multiple people including Andrew, who also mentioned that most of his first video was obvious speculation and not a call to bug out.

[TheCultofAbeLincoln]

This is would be more appropriate in chit chat.

[Martin Blank]

Hey, look, they updated the article. It now reads:

More and more, the sense of all this being a Pavlovian experiment comes into focus.

This reminds me: doesn't Germany already have this kind of domestic deployment shit?

[Martin Blank]

Actually, most countries have it. The U.S. was relatively unique in its restrictions on the use of soldiers for domestic purposes. Posse Comitatus was adopted after Reconstruction to ensure that soldiers were not re-deployed in the South as the racist restoration took hold. At the time, it was a reactionary demand. However, since that time, it had taken on a democratic character.
