For those of you outside the states, we have a law here that prevents the government from putting troops on the street except in extreme emergencies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act Read about how this adminisrtation is subverting that law. http://www.alternet.org/rights/102220/is_posse_comitatus_dead/?page=2 x
Yeah, Rothschild is off his rocker here and jumping to rash, unsupported conclusions. This, as it stands now, in no way violates Posse Comitatus.
Of course posse comitatus is dead, and it has been for years. The capstone was placed atop the pyramid with the John Warner Defense Authorization Act and Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007. Everything is in place for total martial law, and now the Army Times has admitted that as of October 1, 3,000-4,000 troops from the First Brigade of the Third Infantry Division have been deployed under NORTHCOM and are now engaging in training exercises to "quell civil unrest."
Posse Comitatus? I don't know what that sounds like more. A western shoot-em up film, or a female body part. I have never heard of it (as you can well see). NORTHCOM...wtf is that? I suppose I could google that, but it's my friday night and I'm about to curl up with a good book on Laurel Canyon and Charlie Manson.
NORTHCOM is short for Northern Command, which is headquartered at Peterson AFB in Colorado Springs, Colorado. It was formed in 2002 as basically the nerve center for domestic military operations within this country.
