Our Commando War in 120 Countries: Uncovering the Military’s Secret Operations In the Obama Era

American secret commandos are carrying out raids in 70 countries–just today. By the end of the year, the number will probably be close to 120.
Somewhere on this planet an American commando is carrying out a mission. Now, say that 70 times and you’re done… for the day.
Without the knowledge of the American public, a secret force within the U.S. military is undertaking operations in a majority of the world’s countries.
This new Pentagon power elite is waging a global war whose size and scope has never been revealed, until now.
After a U.S. Navy SEAL put a bullet in Osama bin Laden’s chest and another in his head, one of the most secretive black-ops units in the American military suddenly found its mission in the public spotlight.
It was atypical.
While it’s well known that U.S. Special Operations forces are deployed in the war zones of Afghanistan and Iraq, and it’s increasingly apparent that such units operate in murkier conflict zones like Yemen and Somalia, the full extent of their worldwide war has remained deeply in the shadows.
Last year, Karen DeYoung and Greg Jaffe of the Washington Post reported that U.S. Special Operations forces were deployed in 75 countries, up from 60 at the end of the Bush presidency.
By the end of this year, U.S. Special Operations Command spokesman Colonel Tim Nye told me, that number will likely reach 120. “We do a lot of traveling — a lot more than Afghanistan or Iraq,” he said recently.
This global presence — in about 60% of the world’s nations and far larger than previously acknowledged — provides striking new evidence of a rising clandestine Pentagon power elite waging a secret war in all corners of the world.

Are we crazy? Is this the way to win friends and influence people? “The knight in shining armor rode back into the Kingdom after being on crusade for months. “King, your humble servant wants to report that we have been killing, raping and pillaging your enemies to the East?” “I have no enemies to the East!” “You do now, Sire!”
its all about control. Many of the countries resist, like Libya. Then there is the U.S., where people believe they have freedoms because that is what they are told. But the control in the U.S. is well beyond any applied in other countries since americans submit to everything without a fight. Americans passively resist by writing mean comments on blogs. People in other countries fight in the street or in court.
Many other countries resist because they do not want to be cattle, like the americans, that are herded like animals. And the best part (for the controllers) is that Americans think they have it the best, and they always comply. Now that’s an achievement!
So true, Anonymous 7:49. If you can strip people’s freedom, and have them think they are somehow free, then the manipulators and programmers have successfully neutered the population. That does seem to be where the American public stands today, ready to accept any indignity or intrusion, all for the sake of some supposed, but trumped up “security” from those whose actual danger is less likely to kill than a lightning bolt. And yet, in their deranged lust for power and money; those who are drunk with the addiction for control which comes with a Security State, will one day achieve a tipping point which will be chaotic and dangerous for all. What a shame. What a waste. Evil will lose in the end, but it will not go down without a massive confrontation. Love will rule though, there can be no other way.
