A newly leaked US Army Military Police training manual for “Civil Disturbance Operations” outlines how military assets are to be used domestically to quell riots, confiscate firearms and even kill Americans on U.S. soil during mass civil unrest.
The document (PDF), which is dated 2006 and was used for a self-learning course at the U.S. Army Military Police School at Fort McClellan, makes it clear that the operations described in the manual apply to both “CONUS and OCONUS,” meaning inside the Continental United States and outside the Continental United States.
The document (PDF), which is dated 2006 and was used for a self-learning course at the U.S. Army Military Police School at Fort McClellan, makes it clear that the operations described in the manual apply to both “CONUS and OCONUS,” meaning inside the Continental United States and outside the Continental United States.
The document outlines how military assets
will be used to “help local and state authorities to restore and
maintain law and order” in the event of mass riots, civil unrest or a
declaration of martial law.
The primary function of
military assets will be focused around, “breaking up unauthorized
gatherings and by patrolling the disturbance area to prevent the
commission of lawless acts,” states the document, adding, “during
operations to restore order, military forces may present a show of
force, establish roadblocks, break up crowds, employ crowd control
agents, patrol, serve as security forces or reserves, and perform other operations as required.”
The manual also describes how prisoners will be processed through temporary internment camps under the guidance of U.S. Army FM 3-19.40 Internment/Resettlement Operations, which as we reported earlier this year,
outlines how internees would be “re-educated” into developing an
“appreciation of U.S. policies” while detained in prison camps inside
the United States.
The manual includes lists
of weapons to be used against “rioters” or “demonstrators,” including
“antiriot grenades.” It also advises troops to carry their guns in the
“safe port arms” stance, a psychological tactic aimed at “making a show
of force before rioters.” Non-lethal weapons and water cannons are also
included.
The document also explains
how the military will be involved in spying on and gathering information
on dissidents to identify the, “Existence of persons, groups, or
organizations which have distinctively threatened or are creating
disturbances.”
“Crowd control agents” will
also be deployed for the purpose of “reducing resistance,” states the
manual, which also implies that troops will be used to confiscate
firearms.
“Restrictions on the sale,
transfer, and possession of sensitive material such as gasoline,
firearms, ammunition, and explosives will help control forces in
minimizing certain forms of violence,” states the document on page 40.
“Consideration may be given to evacuating sensitive items, such as weapons from stores,” the manual also states on page 27.
The document
emphasizes how troops should make every effort, “to avoid appearing as
an alien invading force and to present the image of a restrained and
well-disciplined force whose sole purpose is to help to restore law and
order with a minimum loss of life and property.”
This 115 page manual
represents a shocking new insight into how the U.S. military will be
used domestically to violently quell unrest in the aftermath of a total economic collapse or other national emergency.
Preparations for using troops to deal with mass civil unrest on U.S. soil have been in the works for years.
Back in 2008, U.S. troops returning from Iraq were earmarked for “homeland patrols” with one of their roles including helping with “civil unrest and crowd control”.
In December 2008, the Washington Post reported on
plans to station 20,000 more U.S. troops inside America for purposes of
“domestic security” from September 2011 onwards, an expansion of
Northcom’s militarization of the country in preparation for potential civil unrest following a total economic collapse or a mass terror attack.
A report produced that same year by the U.S. Army War College’s Strategic Institute warned
that the United States may experience massive civil unrest in the wake
of a series of crises which it termed “strategic shock.”
“Widespread civil violence inside the
United States would force the defense establishment to reorient
priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order and human
security,” stated the report, authored by [Ret.] Lt. Col. Nathan Freir, adding that the military may be needed to quell “purposeful domestic resistance”.
Rex 84,
short for Readiness Exercise 1984, was established under the pretext of
a “mass exodus” of illegal aliens crossing the Mexican/US border.
During the Iran-Contra hearings in 1987,
however, it was revealed that the program was a secretive “scenario and
drill” developed by the federal government
to suspend the Constitution, declare martial law, assign military
commanders to take over state and local governments, and detain large
numbers of American citizens determined by the government to be “national security threats.”
With many Americans now becoming “pre-revolutionary” as a result of their fury at the Obama administration
and equally unpopular lawmakers in Washington, potential civil unrest
could spring not just from a poverty-stricken underclass, but also the
shrinking middle class.
Perhaps that’s why the Department of Homeland Security is increasingly focusing its anti-terror apparatus on white middle class Americans, portraying them as domestic terrorists in a series of PSA videos. In addition, ‘Occupy’ protesters are also now being characterized as terrorists.
