People all over America are wondering what the true purpose of Jade Helm is, whether it is linked to coming emergencies or catastrophes, and whether it is being used to condition the public to accept military intrusion in their lives (or a possible marital law scenario). The US military and mainstream media are downplaying its significance, yet a closer examination reveals there is valid cause for concern.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Jade Helm 15 is a military exercise slated to occur from July 15, 2015 until September 15, 2015. It was initially scheduled for 7 states (California, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah and Texas), but now includes 3 more states (Louisiana, Mississippi and Florida). For the first time ever, it will feature American soldiers actively practicing on American soil and American streets \u2013 especially on streets, since this operation focuses on urban warfare. These won\u2019t be just any old American soldiers, but the cream of the crop, composed of Green Beret, Navy Seal and other elite forces. According to the US Military, their mission will be to operate undetected amongst the American civilian population, wearing civilian clothes and driving civilian vehicles, and practice UW (Unconventional Warfare) techniques in terrain resembling the Middle East so as to better fight enemies over there. At least, that is the cover story.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a list of 10 deeper implications and causes for concern with Operation Jade Helm 15:<\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm Implication\u00a0#1: Violation of Principle of Posse Comitatus<\/h3>\n<p>The Posse Comitatus Act was passed in 1878, and it forbade the US military from being deployed domestically on American soil. The\u00a0purpose\u00a0of Posse Comitatus was to prevent a tyrant from seizing power and directing the nation\u2019s standing armies against its own people. This kind of thing has happened throughout history; military generals like Julius Caesar and Pompey overtook the Roman Republic by marching upon the city of Rome with their armies. Posse Comitatus is very important plank in a free society, because it is another way to prevent centralization of power and keep the different functions and powers of Government as separate as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Jade Helm appears to be a serious\u00a0violation of the principle of Posse Comitatus. Not only are the military planning to actively exercise on American soil, but also they are planning to do it among the civilian population, within populated areas. However before\u00a0Jade Helm arose we already had the John Warner National Defense Authorization Act, passed in 2006, which in many ways gutted Posse Comitatus. As\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.americanprogress.org\/issues\/media\/news\/2008\/10\/23\/5081\/think-again-the-invisible-battle-over-posse-comitatus\/\" target=\"_blank\">Eric Alterman\u00a0and George Zornick<\/a> write:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cBefore John Warner\u00a0passed, the president could deploy troops inside the United States only if he invoked the Insurrection Act of 1807, which allows for deployment only \u201cto suppress, in a State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy.\u201d The new law expands the list to include \u201cnatural disaster, epidemic, or other serious public health emergency, terrorist attack or incident, or other condition\u201d\u2014and such a \u201ccondition\u201d is not defined or limited.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Jade Helm looks like another step in the direction of <strong>domestic military deployment<\/strong> \u2013 a nail in the coffin for a free republic.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/freedom-articles.toolsforfreedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/jade-helm-middle-east-overlay.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3568 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/freedom-articles.toolsforfreedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/jade-helm-middle-east-overlay-300x230.png\" alt=\"jade-helm-middle-east-overlay\" width=\"300\" height=\"230\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm Implication\u00a0#2: Declaring Certain States Hostile<\/h3>\n<p>The supposed basis of Jade Helm is that the US military needs to practice in the same kind of terrain as its Middle Eastern enemies. Since the Middle East is full of different countries whose attitudes towards the US range from hostile to neutral to friendly, the US military has designated certain US states as hostile, to mimic these Middle Eastern countries. When you overlay a Middle Eastern map over the southwest USA, Texas is roughly comparable to Iran, Utah is\u00a0roughly comparable to Syria and the \u201cinsurgent pocket\u201d of California\u00a0is roughly comparable to Palestine. Thus these 3 areas have been declared hostile for the purposes of Jade Helm.<\/p>\n<p>From a civilian\u00a0perspective,\u00a0declaring certain states hostile is a real cause for concern.\u00a0Texas has a\u00a0culture of fierce independence and resistance to federal control. Is it just a coincidence that Texas is 1 of the 2 states fully designated as \u201chostile\u201d in Jade Helm? Is it just a coincidence that Texas\u00a0just passed legislation to build its own gold bullion depository in order to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/news\/2015-06-16\/gold-bullion-worth-1-billion-be-%E2%80%9Crepatriated%E2%80%9D-ny-fed-new-texas-bullion-depository\" target=\"_blank\">repatriate $1 billion worth of gold<\/a> currently stored by the Federal Reserve in New York? Is it just a coincidence that Texas is the state labeled as \u201chostile\u201d when it\u2019s home to a massive number of gun owners, patriots, secessionists and liberty lovers who would fight the Federal Government to the death?<\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm\u00a0Implication #3: More War<\/h3>\n<p>Even if you take everything the US Military is saying at face value \u2013 a big jump I know \u2013 and even if you believe that the\u00a0declaration of certain states as \u201chostile\u201d is completely innocuous, standard and has no deeper meaning, what are the implications for war? The US has already raised the ire of almost the entire world by its constant invasions, bombings, incursions, drone attacks and assassinations in the Middle East. It has made countless enemies since 9\/11 by attempting to conquer that entire region. It has murdered millions of\u00a0Middle Easteners and has stolen tons of oil and other natural resources from the land. But apparently this is not enough. Now, the NWO elite want to continue using the US military, which is essentially their private army of killers and assassins, to further obliterate Syria and Iran\u00a0to dominate the entire region \u2013 with an eye to encircling Russia and China. Do we really want to ignore or condone the US military training to accomplish its mission of unbridled aggression?<\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm\u00a0Implication\u00a0#4: Martial Law or Military Conditioning<\/h3>\n<p>The widespread exposure of Jade Helm has led many to predict that it will\u00a0lead to martial law. Whether this is an accurate prediction or fear-based prophesizing remains to be seen, however one thing is for sure: even if the exercise does not produce martial law, it is definitely\u00a0conditioning the American public to accept and become accustomed to an increased police\/military presence in their lives. Jade Helm is the elite\u00a0sending a message to the general US population: get used to living in fear. Get used to living in a world where it is normal for the military to patrol among your ranks, disguised or out in the open. Get used to being watched closely. Get used to the sight and sound of military being deployed in your town. Welcome to New World Order America.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/freedom-articles.toolsforfreedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/military-cop.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3567 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/freedom-articles.toolsforfreedom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/military-cop.jpg\" alt=\"military-cop-jade-helm\" width=\"225\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm\u00a0Implication\u00a0#5: The Merging of Military and Police<\/h3>\n<p>Jade Helm is another example of a disturbing trend: the merging of the military and police into a single force that can be deployed anywhere, abroad or domestically, against anyone. This force then becomes, essentially, the private army of the elite that can be use against any group that threatens their power structure. For some time now, both in the US and other nations, we have witnessed the growing militarization of the\u00a0police; in the US this has been aided by programs like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.propublica.org\/article\/the-best-reporting-on-the-federal-push-to-militarize-local-police\" target=\"_blank\">1033<\/a>, where surplus military equipment is deliberately being funneled to local police forces. The\u00a0merging\u00a0of military and police is a big danger to any democracy, due to the gross centralization of power it entails.<\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm\u00a0Implication\u00a0#6: US Military Targeting US Citizens<\/h3>\n<p>Whenever you dream about, talk about or practice an activity, your brain is learning how do it by making neuron patterns.\u00a0The US military practicing to target its own citizens is anything but benign and harmless. This literally means that US soldiers are getting accustomed to seeing their own countrymen as the enemy. Jade Helm is not only about conditioning the public to accept an increasingly militarized society, but it\u2019s also about conditioning the future enforcers of the New World Order \u2013 soldiers from the US and other countries \u2013 to view anyone they\u2019re told to view as the enemy, to shoot upon command without asking questions or challenging orders. Jade Helm is literally and unabashedly an exercise where US soldiers are practicing how to blend in with normal Americans and operate undetected among them. Can you see how inherently dangerous this is? Can you see how such an ability could so easily be used against the American people?<\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm\u00a0Implication\u00a0#7: There\u2019s Always an Enemy<\/h3>\n<p>From a global perspective, the US military is completely and utterly out of control. Sorry to burst your bubble if you\u2019re an active member or a veteran, but the US military has never been about respect or honor. There\u2019s nothing respectable about mass murder and there\u2019s nothing honorable about constantly invading other sovereign nations because your corporate masters\u00a0don\u2019t like their leaders \u2013 as has been happening in South America, Africa, Asia, the Middle East and all over the world for over a century. When has the US military ever being used for legitimate defense? Never. It\u2019s always been attack, attack, attack \u2013 including both World Wars and the false flag incidents (Lusitania and Pearl Harbor) engineered to get America into those bloody wars.<\/p>\n<p>The problem here is the <strong>military mindset<\/strong> \u2013 the mindset that divides the world up into friendly and hostile, and that is always training to defend itself and attack \u201cthe\u00a0enemy\u201d, even though that enemy is frequently imaginary. Just look at how many enemies our leaders have given us, from the Nazis to the Commies to the Islamic terrorists, when in all cases those enemies were\u00a0created and funded by the US military-industrial complex and the NWO elite. Jade Helm is a continuation\u00a0of the demented and delusional mindset that seeks to\u00a0find an enemy to fight in any situation.<\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm\u00a0Implication\u00a0#8: Unbridled Movement of Military Vehicles<\/h3>\n<p>Citizen journalists have caught copious video footage of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ugMmyBUKRy4\" target=\"_blank\">military vehicle movements<\/a> around America in the last few months. Is it just a coincidence that some of this is happening in\u00a0Jade Helm states, such as California, Nevada and<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hYb_TajH3FQ\" target=\"_blank\">Texas<\/a>?<\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm\u00a0Implication\u00a0#9: Connection to Closed Walmarts<\/h3>\n<p>The mystery of the <a href=\"http:\/\/freedom-articles.toolsforfreedom.com\/underground-tunnel-connection-to-walmart\/\" target=\"_blank\">abrupt closings of 5 Walmarts<\/a> in Jade Helm states has not been solved, but many have theorized that it is connected to Jade Helm.\u00a0Is Walmart, which is already enmeshed with the Federal Government and DHS,\u00a0linking itself to underground tunnels? Is Walmart setting itself up to become a military command center? If not, then why\u00a0is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=CzDwWpY8NMo\" target=\"_blank\">military equipment being parked<\/a> in Walmart parking lots all over America?<\/p>\n<h3>Jade Helm\u00a0Implication\u00a0#10: Background and\u00a0Context<\/h3>\n<p>No doubt, some\u00a0of the speculation\u00a0surrounding Jade Helm is over-the-top \u201cfear porn\u201d. However, even though some people love to jump to conjuring up doomsday scenarios,\u00a0there is an undeniably valid cause for concern about the existence of an operation like Jade Helm.\u00a0Think of the background and context in which it\u00a0is occurring \u2013 including but not limited to such events as:<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 incidences in the last 3-4 years on American streets\u00a0of <strong>martial law<\/strong> (Boston Marathon) or heavy-handed military-police response (Ferguson, Baltimore);<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Obama signing the\u00a0<strong>NDAA<\/strong> into law, which allows the US Government to indefinitely detain US citizens without charge or trial, in gross violation of the 4th Amendment;<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Obama <a href=\"http:\/\/www.factcheck.org\/2008\/11\/obamas-national-security-force\/\" target=\"_blank\">announcing<\/a> that \u201cWe cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we\u2019ve set.\u00a0We\u2019ve got to have a <strong>civilian national security force<\/strong> that\u2019s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded\u201d;<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 the <strong>invention of terrorism<\/strong> as the abstract bogeyman after 9\/11, and the wholesale destruction of rights, liberties and privacy that has ensued in many nations across the globe since then;<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 the expansion of the definition of terrorism to <strong>domestic terrorism<\/strong>, and the subsequent\u00a0branding of ordinary Americans as <strong>extremists<\/strong> or domestic terrorists (e.g. the <a href=\"http:\/\/rt.com\/usa\/ohio-nationalguard-gun-drill-590\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ohio National Guard portraying gun rights supporters as domestic terrorists<\/a> during a drill, the police chief in Concord, New Hampshire <a href=\"http:\/\/thefederalist-gary.blogspot.com\/2013\/08\/nh-city-wants-tank-to-use-against.html\" target=\"_blank\">wanting to use a tank against occupiers and libertarians<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/12160.info\/profiles\/blogs\/video-marines-practice-subduing-citizens-inside-internment-camp\" target=\"_blank\">marines in Arizona practicing to subdue citizens<\/a> inside an internment camp, and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.infowars.com\/documents-national-guard-ordered-to-consider-americans-as-enemy-forces-and-adversaries\/\" target=\"_blank\">American protesters being\u00a0referred to as \u201cenemy forces\u201d and \u201cadversaries\u201d in National Guard documents<\/a>);<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 the rumors of Obama firing generals and other top military officials based on<strong>whether they would fire on American citizens\u00a0<\/strong>(e.g. testimony of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.infowars.com\/ex-navy-seal-military-leaders-being-asked-if-they-will-disarm-americans\/\" target=\"_blank\">former Navy Seal Ben Smith<\/a>, who claimed top brass in the military were being asked if they would be\u00a0comfortable disarming US citizens);<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 the US military\u2019s own documents showing it is <strong>preparing to\u00a0intervene and deploy domestically against its own citizens<\/strong>, whom it swore to serve and protect (e.g. the military document entitled <em><a href=\"http:\/\/info.publicintelligence.net\/USArmy-InternmentResettlement.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Internment and Resettlement Operations<\/a><\/em>);<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 the DHS (Department of Homeland Security)<strong>\u00a0purchase of 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition<\/strong>\u00a0when the agency does not fight any wars abroad, meaning the ammunition must be used domestically;<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 the testimony of various military officers, active and retired, who have revealed that the\u00a0<strong>DHS is attempting to build a domestic army<\/strong> (e.g. this<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=sEGUlK81yMg\" target=\"_blank\">Marine Colonel<\/a>).<\/p>\n<h3>Use Jade Helm as a Wake-Up Call<\/h3>\n<p>Hopefully a critical mass of awakened Americans can use Jade Helm as a wake-up call.
