United States to issue unprecedented DEFCON 1 alert!

By: Sorcha Faal

Defense Secretary Robert Gates says the United States can invade any country in order to rout out terrorism.

September 26, 2008 - Russian Military Analysts are reporting in the Kremlin today that the United States Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has alerted his worldwide military commands to begin preparations for the raising of America's Defense Condition (DEFCON) "on or about" October 7th to their highest status, DEFCON 1.

United States ally Israel has, likewise, raised its alert status to their highest level, and as we can read as reported by the World Tribune News Service, "Israel's military has been placed on high alert following an airline bomb scare and reports of other threats. ‘There is an assessment that something very bad will take place over the next few weeks, perhaps over the Jewish holidays,’ an official said."

This unprecedented action by the United States in raising its alert status came almost immediately after American and Pakistani troops traded fire today, and as we can read as reported by the New York Times News Service, "Pakistani and American ground troops exchanged fire along the border with Afghanistan on Thursday after the Pakistanis shot at two American helicopters, ratcheting up tensions as the United States increases its attacks against militants from Al Qaeda and the Taliban, who are being sheltered in Pakistan's restive tribal areas."

Nuclear armed Pakistan's Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani yesterday issued to the Americans a stern warning, stating, "I want to declare categorically that we will not tolerate violation of our sovereignty by anyone in the name of combating terrorism," but to which the U.S. Defense Secretary Gates replied, "The United Nations charter allows the U.S. to act in self-defense against international terrorists in Pakistan if the government was unable, or unwilling to deal with them."

These reports further state that the FSB is 'standing by' their previous reports stating that the United States is entering a stage of 'profound change' that will see their present government completely overturned, and as we had previously on in our September 16th report, "U.S. To Declare October 'Economic Emergency', Suspend Elections".

It is interesting to note that just yesterday, U.S. Presidential Candidate John McCain began the process of derailing the American campaign system by his announcing the suspension of his campaign to concentrate his efforts on his nation’s current financial crisis.

Prime Minister Putin's anger against the United States for the continued use of their "money printing machine" is raising more calls in Russia for the total remaking of the world's economic system.

One of the most popular plans among Russian economic experts is the return to the gold standard. The idea of gold convertible currencies is extremely unpopular among most Western economists: they dismiss gold as a "barbarous relic" (to use the famous phrase of John Maynard Keynes) and suggest either the present regime of paper currencies or, at best, a link to a basket of commodities."

However, the greatest insight to these rapidly escalating events occurring in the United States that are destroying their nation we can read from an American author who in great detail has tried to warn her fellow citizens of the dangers they face, "Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine advances a truly unnerving argument: historically, while people were reeling from natural disasters, wars and economic upheavals, savvy politicians and industry leaders nefariously implemented policies that would never have passed during less muddled times. As Klein demonstrates, this reprehensible game of bait-and-switch isn't just some relic from the bad old days. It's alive and well in contemporary society, and coming soon to a disaster area near you.

"At the most chaotic juncture in Iraq'' civil war, a new law is unveiled that will allow Shell and BP to claim the country's vast oil reserves. Immediately following September 11, the Bush regime quietly outsourced the running of the 'War on Terror' to Halliburton and Blackwater. After a tsunami wiped out the coasts of Southeast Asia, the pristine beaches were auctioned off to tourist resorts. New Orleans residents, scattered from Hurricane Katrina, discovered that their public housing, hospitals and schools would never be re-opened." Klein not only kicks butt, but she names those responsible, notably economist Milton Friedman and his radical Chicago School of the 1950s and 60s, which she notes, "produced many of the leading neo-conservative and neo-liberal thinkers whose influence is still profound in Washington today."

Unfortunately, the American people still fail to see the crushing blows being prepared for them over these coming weeks that though they can still prepare for them, they remain frozen in place by the fear being exerted upon them by their own leaders.
