Quote:
TOPOFF 4 taking place between 15 and 20 October will set off fake radiological dispersal devices (RDD) or �dirty bombs� in Oregon and Arizona as well as Guam.

Vigilant Shield conducted by the Northern American Aerospace Defense Command will exercise its ability to mobilize resources for aerospace defense and control, maritime warning and coordination of air operations in a disaster area over North America.

TOPOFF 4, involving 15,000 participants from various US federal agencies as well as Australia, Canada and the UK, will combine with Vigilant Shield 2008, for a simulated war scenario with major domestic anti-terror drills.

DEBKAfile�s military sources report that Vigilant Shield will deploy a record number of US Air Force warplanes and spread over Canada and the Pacific island of Guam.

It is described as resembling a wartime scenario more than an anti-terrorist drill.

As we have seen with previous terror attacks and false flags... Plan a simulation. Make use of most of the military's resources. OMG!!! We are really being attacked... Prepare all media before-hand, and when the shite hits the fan relay confusion between the Exercise and the Real attack...

Blame it on Iran... and there we go again, but this time it's the final straw... the repercussions will be felt on all levels of society but Iran won't be crippled since we have too many investments and we wouldn't want another Iraq.
The brunt of this kind of attack would only be felt afterwards as the bills and papers have already been prepared to strip everyone of everything... Freedom was never free, and neither were/are we.

If you 'Think' we live in a police state(world-wide)... You're right, but this time they don't want you to 'Think' so they want you to 'Know' so.

And the silence of the many will be considered consent... the action of the few (controlled-opposition) will be held as examples and the Media will repeatedly show the rampant killings and death of opposer's to government... saying "See we told you there are crazies among you, we are only here to protect you, we need your help to clamp down on Patriot Movements, and freedom lovers because they are the terrorists"

... and now to the latest sports... O.J. Simpson has announced his return to football, and Jessica Simpson might be his daughter...

Stay tuned for the latest... as we are about to tell you what to think and what to discuss amongst yourself...Government is your friend, War is Peace and Kudo's to George Orwell's 1984.

Has this got something to do with condoms, or something? What a bizarre name for a miltary exercise.

You might consider adding the word 'over-reaction' to your active vocabulary.

TOPOFF 4 and Vigilant Shield 08:
A View From The "Feverish Fringe"

By Warren Pease
Online Journal Contributing Writer

Oct 8, 2007, 01:02

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

-- George W. Bush, Aug. 5, 2004, in a rare moment of unscripted candor.

A paper from the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs (A.K.A ~ Think Tank) that describes events to follow a nuclear attack and coincidentally Washington and Portland has illustrated pics and diagrams in the full pdf... Workshop was held on April 19th this year!!!

Quote:
The Day After: Action in the 24 Hours Following a Nuclear Blast in an American City

Report, Preventive Defense Project

Authors: Dr. Ashton B. Carter, Co-Director, Preventive Defense Project, Harvard & Stanford Universities, Dr. William J. Perry, Co-Director, Preventive Defense Project, Dr. Michael M. May

Belfer Center Programs or Projects: International Security; Preventive Defense Project

On April 19, 2007, the Preventive Defense Project convened a workshop of leading federal government civilian and military officials, scientists, policy experts, and journalists in Washington, D.C. to address "The Day After: Action in the 24 Hours Following a Nuclear Blast in an American City." The resulting report, co-authored with Michael M. May, former Director of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, summarizes seven findings and recommendations based on the workshop.

Through efforts like the Nunn-Lugar program, the U.S. government and many of the Day After Workshop participants, including us, have long sought to prevent nuclear weapons and fissile materials from falling into new and threatening hands, especially terrorists. But we all know that these efforts have not reduced the probability to zero. It is also a common refrain among policy thinkers concerned with the growing nuclear threat � again, ourselves included � to frame the issue of prevention in terms of a provocative question, "On the day after a nuclear weapon goes off in a U.S. city, what will we wish we had done to prevent it?"

But our Preventive Defense "Day After Workshop" asked a different question: "What will we actually do on the day after prevention fails?" What will we want to do? How can we prepare now to be able to do it? We asked the distinguished participants in the Workshop to catapult themselves vividly and concretely into the aftermath of a nuclear detonation on a U.S. city.

The needed actions by government and the public on the Day After will fall into two categories: actions to recover from the first detonation, and actions to prevent a second detonation. The Workshop addressed both types of action in as much detail, including technical detail, as possible. The seven findings and recommendations cover the following topics:

1. Prevention of nuclear terrorism
2. Responsibilities of the federal government on the Day After
3. Fallout sheltering and evacuation
4. Cleanup, rebuilding, and long-term radiation exposure
5. The likelihood of a second, third, and further detonations in a terrorist
scenario
6. Retaliation and deterrence
7. Continuity of the American form of government.

The Day After is a grim prospect to contemplate. But policymakers have no choice, since the probability of nuclear terrorism cannot be calculated but is surely not zero. The actions of public officials on the Day After will affect the lives of many thousands, the welfare of many millions, and the well-being and even cohesiveness of the nation and the world. Carefully considered action by government on the Day After will also help the citizenry avoid overreaction and allow them to restore, through their Constitutional government, the American way of life that they have built over centuries. Terrorists � even armed with nuclear weapons � should never be allowed to take that away.

From within the PDF...
Quote:
6. RETALIATION AND DETERRENCE. The source of the weapon or material
detonated by a non-governmental terrorist group will eventually be traced back to a
government � Russia, Pakistan, another foreign source, or even the United States.


Some might remember the show "24"... this whole scenario was played out for us where we saw how there's a "government" within, over and above the so-called government. And in reality these Secret Societies have no borders or countries, they are one and the same the world over...
Some of you might call this fetching, fishing or contextual error, but if you're able to read between the lines... the context becomes blurry!!!

your future has two possible outcomes:

1. wake up one day and realize all of your personal freedoms have been taken away to fight an imaginary enemy in a war with no end

2. wake up one day and realize you have lived your life believing the lies of the government that you thought would protect you


you control our own fate
good luck with that

Obfuscating as he does, Clark's quite likely one of the forum's resident Freemason Trolls Idea

Deception & ignorance is simply part of his pseudo-Babylonian shhhhh-tick.
