As Commandos Raid Tampa, US State Dept Demands Power to Declare War

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


By Anthony Wile
Daily Bail

Clinton Goes Commando, Sells Diplomats as Shadow Warriors … Clinton, wearing pearls and a silver and black blouse, climbed the stage and began to speak. And soon it all made more sense. She had an idea to sell — and to defend … She described a vision in which shadowy U.S. and allied Special Operations Forces, working hand in hand with America’s embassies and foreign governments, together play a key role in preventing low-intensity conflicts. And where prevention fails, the same commando-diplomat team goes on the attack … – Wired (5/24/12)

It happened again at the recent Tampa-based conference, “Building the Global SOF Partnership” …

The US military staged a mock drill in violation of 130+ years of the Posse Comitatus Act that bars domestic forces from active use on US soil.

It wasn’t just the US, either. Some 90 nations supposedly participated in the drill, which aimed to “rescue” Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn, supposedly kidnapped by terrorists. There were helicopters overhead and a tactical assault showed up by water. Then special ops teams invaded a “terrorist village” near the Convention Center and rescued the mayor, who said he was grateful.

The ongoing militarization of all phases of US society via Homeland Security searches and military training exercises surely should be of concern to those who are searching for a less warlike and aggressive United States.

But the pendulum apparently continues to swing in the other direction. While the mock drill received a lot of attention in the alternative media, statements of the guest of honor, Hillary Clinton, are worthy of equivalent concern.

The Secretary of State seemed to inform the conference that the State Department now had the unilateral authority to declare a limited state of war via an expanding liaison with US Special Operations Forces. Here are some direct quotes:

… We created a new Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations that is working to put into practice lessons learned over the past decade and institutionalize a civilian surge capacity to deal with crises and hotspots.

Experts from this new bureau are working closely with Special Operations Forces around the world … Our diplomats also saw that the UN staff in the region could be useful partners. So they worked through our team in Washington and New York to obtain new authorities for the UN officials on the ground and then link them up directly with our Special Operations Forces to share expertise and improve coordination.

The State Department and US Special Ops – a new, unelected and unaccountable power in the world? It is broader still …

We have to keep our international cooperation going and growing at every level. Next week I’ll be heading to Europe, and I’ll end up in Istanbul for the second meeting of the new Global Counterterrorism Forum, which we helped launch last year. Turkey and the United States serve as the founding co-chairs, and we’ve been joined by nearly 30 other nations.

Who has given Ms. Clinton the brief to do such things? She characterizes these conflicts as low level but there are no guarantees they will stay that way. And what are the criteria for her mandates? And who is she to consult with? Constitutionally, only the US Congress has the right to commit US troops to war.

US President Barack Obama, through surrogates such as Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, is now claiming that his administration can commit US forces based on international (UN) mandates and the like. Congress is to be consulted only secondarily. But Clinton seems to be taking it a step further. She apparently wants the personal power to do the deed.

There are voices raised generally against these sorts of declarations. At the highest level, libertarian/GOP Congressman Ron Paul (R-Tex) has used his presidential campaign to demand that the US bring home its troops and special agents from nearly 1,000 bases worldwide.

This would not suit Clinton, who is a globalist with a book to her credit entitled, It Takes a Village. She knows full well that there are plenty of questions about the so-called “war on terror” but gives credence to even its most questionable elements.

Pakistan-oriented “Opinion Maker” posted an article (“Clinton Bares All”) shortly after her speech. Here’s the conclusion:

Today the diplomatic meddlers have networks of NGOs (non-governmental organizations) to assist them with the process of spreading the “pork” locally and creating new false narratives which mirror the latest fashionable lies being peddled by Washington’s other sources.

You see the process most completely in the fate suffered by Libya, or Syria, or that visited upon the people of Iraq. At the end of the “smart” process is nothing but war and local devastation giving the US and NATO military a foot in the door.

Now Ms. Clinton has proclaimed the right to direct that “foot in the door.” The civilian and military conversation in the US is moving steadily in the wrong direction.

This should be of concern not only to US citizens who want a less warlike US but also to the world community at large.

      American Democracy: CIA- Related Egyptian Activists Threaten Killing Presidency Winner If He Is Not Their Nominee!

      USA Ambassador made promotion to the Muslim Brother Nominee; Mohamad Morsy at the day of elections, by traveling to his city and visiting his voting center, under the excuse of watching elections!
      USA, is expressing again that it is supporting Radicalists Muslim Brothers; Ikhwan for presidency, so that Israel can start war on Egypt and occupy Sinai and Suez Canal next day, if Muslim Brother Nominee wins, to protect its security.
      According to the Masonic and Zionist agenda; Israel must occupy Egypt and reach to River Nile; Cairo during this year to announce Great Israel, New Middle East and New World Order.
      Activists trained, funded, protected and directed by CIA, are Ikhwan, Shea Muslims related to Mullah of Iran, including 6 April Youth Movement, media people, members of Non Governmental Organizations and Human Rights Organizations!
      That is why all of them are in the same basket! They are all working to CIA, trying to rule Egypt through the Bilderberger Elbaradei, Soros Puppet, who always tries to ruin any elections or voting in Egypt and insists that he must rule Egypt through a Civil Presidential Council, without elections!
      Egyptian Army Forces and Police are under threat that if they do their job, arrest criminals, protect Egypt and Egyptians, that NATO will punish them and occupy Egypt, so they sacrifice themselves and show extreme patience when terrorist criminal activists attack them with Molotov, shoot them, kill them, burn Egypt or attack vital places.
      Egyptians understood the American game and chose Ahmad Shafik, the Military Pilot, who was among nominees for Presidential Elections. He was violently attacked, but people love, trust and want him to be the next president.
      Muslim Brothers, 6 April, Elbaradei followers, Shea related to Mullah of Iran and Jihadists threatened that they will kill Shafik if he wins the Elections. They threatened Mr. Omar Soliman, the leader of Egyptian Central Intelligence and made a trick to get rid of him away from elections.
      Two Presidential Nominees are available now for the final elections: Morsy; nominee of Muslim Brothers and Shafik. All other nominees, who were related to CIA and were ready to divide Egypt, destroy Egyptian army and police, offer Sinai and Suez Canal for Israel , joined their colleague Morsy, who agreed with CIA, Obama and Soros to do so.
      Now, Muslim Brothers, from which Al Qaeda branched and from which the Egyptian physician Al Zawaheri, the leader of Al Qaeda branched too, threaten Coptic Christians and Egyptians, that they will kill them if they choose Shafik and they threaten Military Council that will make war against them with the thousands of weapons entering Egypt through Libya and Hamas and through the snipers sent to Egypt by Qatari Sheikh Hamad.
      USA Democracy equals: Doing all what is against Egyptians’ will and all what is with Israeli Agenda, including supporting terrorists and killing Egyptians!

      “shoeupon” should realise that the Nazi camps were designed to facilitate the eventual mass resettlement of Europe’s Jews to Palestine, or in extremis, to Madagascar, and were not for their extermination. Extermination is always reserved for the goyim, hence the firestorms satanically unleashed by the Jewish controllers of the Allies, on undefended concentrations of women, children, babies, and pets, found in Hamburg, Cologne, and Dresden. This was why the Rothschilds funded Hitler, who was 1/4 Rothschild himself. Without their promotion of him and their finance, he would have remained a meaningless firebrand and a failed artist. They wanted a Zionist State; after all, what do you do with your money once you have stolen enough to buy the whole world? You have to have a dream. And the 2000 year old dream was to restore the Children of Israel to their homeland. They didn’t want to go, hence the creation of a wave of false anti Semitism. Not that the Jews are Semites, of course, they are Khazars largely, but that’s another story. Hitler was 1/4 Jewish, but his cook, his lawyer, and his doctor were fully Jewish. As was Josef Goebbels. That’s how much he hated the Jews. He chose to surround himself with them.
      Why do you think the Jews were all tattooed? And entered into the hastily-supplied IBM punchcard system sent over to Germany from the US in 1939?
      Because they were commercially valuable; the tattoo was the closest they could get at the time to a barcode. Each unit successfully delivered to the Holy Land would have been chargeable.
      Those who died, probably 1/4 million, largely succumbed through the malnutrition which by the end of the war was endemic, and which brings in its train susceptibility to diseases such as typhus.
      So shoeupon will realise by this point that the contrast between 1939 and today is extreme. Today, the camps ARE for extermination. The creators of this policy derive it straight from the pages of the Talmud. They are the very Jews who claim that they are the victims of centuries of oppression, but who in fact are the most wicked and murderous of people, driven by the Talmud , to which most adhere, to inflict genocide on the people of the world. Perhaps you have noticed what they do with impunity to the people they dispossessed, the Palestinians. Perhaps you watched as they bulldozed Rachel Corrie into the ground, as she bravely defended a Palestinian doctor’s house. If you do not believe this, then read their favourite OT bedtime story, the Book of Esther, upon which they base their annual bloody feast of Purim. They seek your death, ideally by bludgeon, but preferably after a period of exquisite torture. They will carry out their plan in the so-called FEMA camps which you mention.

      Your Freedom is already gone. They may not have knocked on [or broken down] your door as yet to collect your firearms, but they will. Right now the vast majority of the American People are simply: “Slowly Boiling Frogs” waiting to be enslaved or worse. The only Freedom left to you is to choose between the Love and Caring of the Almighty and Omnipotent God or to embrace Satan’s Army of the New World Order. And, that is your very last Choice. God love you.

      HereamI, Why was there never any shipments of your valuable tattooed units ever shipped off to Madagascar or Palestine? Seems it would have been a much more profitable venture to ship them straight off then to build temporary housing all over Europe and hold them for the duration of the war. I’m willing to bet given the choice, many Jews would have gladly opted for Palestine or Madagascar over say, 24 months in an Amsterdam attic with no daytime movement and ultimate death by disease. I think Anne Frank might have liked life in Israel or Madagascar. Too bad that unit never made one of your shipments.

      THIS is THAT which is spoken of in the bible;

      And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
      24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
      25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

      The bad part about it is he shall destroy the mighty and holy people first. Pray always that you be accounted worthy to escape all these things.

      Tragic really.

      The Nazis created concentration camps for political prisoners. The 300,000 jews in Germany had been reduced to 150,000 by emmiglration at the outbreak of World War Two – 1939 people – you Americans were late. Bear in mind tho in April 1945 there were still left 1500 jews in Berlin – the Reichsmarine kept their jewish specialists.

      But with the invasion of Poland the Germans faced a propaganda problem. The wealthy jews in Germany had money, the millions of jews in Poland had squat, being below even the Poles. Then the ghettoisation started. With the influx of Ukraine and Belorussia, the situation became worse as the Germans wanted to move german settlers inte the new Greater Reich.

      So we once again get flipped by the Jew-Baiters in assuming that the Allies were run by jews hahahhahaahaahaahhaahah!

      Ok Lenin gave Hebrew lessons when young, but he ditched the religion for the revolution. Churchill’s ancestors were english and american – really he was a half-breed yank. Roosevelts ancestors converted to Christianity generations befo he was born. And Stalin was from Georgia where their attitude to jews followed Hitler.

      But we still have the Jew-Baiters who cannot stop themselves. I cannot and have never seen yo motivation, other than gross stupidity. And in a country where the “Know Nothing Party” was polling quite well in the early 1900′s, that is hardly surprising.

      Back to your Constitition – there is one fatal flaw in all the above arguments – there is a law in the US dating from the revolution to the effect that Regular Army units cannot be moved without Congressional approval.

      Why do yo think the US Presidents use the Marines for Embassy Guards? Becuz the Navy is not covered by the Law. Neither are the Airborne Troops, being part of the AirForce. This is why Eisenhower sent the 101st and 82nd Airborne to protect black schoolchildren from screaming mobs of white turds in the 1950′s. I wish you people would study your own damn history!

      So Congress decides on armies, and no one has broken that in 200 years.

      So if the State Deopartment wishes to start a war, they will need an army – and Congress will not release them on the grounds of “It sounds like a really neat idea”.

      So that leaves everything else – but the Defence Department has traditionally viewed the State Department as a bunch of idiots, and rightly so.

      The main and devastitantig problem with the State Department is the brainless attitude – they have been against every war since Korea on the basis of “But if we get rid of the enemey government, who will we ring up to complain to?”

      But with the CIa, Homeland Security, the FBI, Secret Service, Nasa, the Marines, the Navy, the Airforce, the Army all wanting to run private skunk squads of their own, do not expect a voice of reason to say we should have less idiots running around with guns.

      Anne Frank’s diary was written in ball point pen. The first ball point pen was made and patented in 1947.
      Obama gets a woody every time he imagines a sweaty, desperate soldier, like Bush43. Hillary goes into an uncontrollable pant whenever she imagines a dead one. Look into the historical accounts of Hillary, Obama, and Bill openly showing disrespect for the flag and its military and constitutional principals. True. The government of the United States is the worst in the world, except for all the rest.
      Our government now has aggressive wars inflicting death and destruction in a dozen different nations. That is the American peoples’ fault. These victims of these wars are INNOCENT of attacks on the U.S.. Hillary with her own army will be a step worse than the TSA sexually molesting people and calling it ‘national security’. I saw a photo of Hillary in x-rated bondage gear at a party in 1983. Not photoshop. Expect the worst.

      Hey Scodd, you’ve got a lot more reading to catch up on. Maybe you could start with Albert Pike? Then it would dawn on you that ALL sides worked to establish Israel, Isis-Ra-El. This was preplanned by the wierdo occultists many decades before. Then they funded the writing of the historical accounts through a Rockerfella foundation. You need to see past the propaganda. Good luck, OzzieEd.
