Meet Directive 3025.18 Granting Obama Authority To Use Military Force Against Civilians
While the "use of armed [unmanned aircraft systems] is not authorized," The Washington Times uncovering of a 2010 Pentagon directive on military support to civilian authorities details what critics say is a troubling policy that envisions the Obama administration’s potential use of military force against Americans. As one defense official proclaimed, "this appears to be the latest step in the administration’s decision to use force within the United States against its citizens." Meet Directive 3025.18 and all its "quelling civil disturbances" totalitarianism...
As The Washington Times reports,
Directive No. 3025.18, “Defense Support of Civil Authorities,” was issued Dec. 29, 2010, and states that U.S. commanders “are provided emergency authority under this directive.”
“Federal military forces shall not be used to quell civil disturbances unless specifically authorized by the president in accordance with applicable law or permitted under emergency authority,” the directive states.
“In these circumstances, those federal military commanders have the authority, in extraordinary emergency circumstances where prior authorization by the president is impossible and duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation, to engage temporarily in activities that are necessary to quell large-scale, unexpected civil disturbances” under two conditions.
The conditions include military support needed “to prevent significant loss of life or wanton destruction of property and are necessary to restore governmental function and public order.” A second use is when federal, state and local authorities “are unable or decline to provide adequate protection for federal property or federal governmental functions.”
A U.S. official said the Obama administration considered but rejected deploying military force under the directive during the recent standoff with Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy and his armed supporters.
“Federal action, including the use of federal military forces, is authorized when necessary to protect the federal property or functions,” the directive states.
Military assistance can include loans of arms, ammunition, vessels and aircraft. The directive states clearly that it is for engaging civilians during times of unrest.
There is one silver lining (for now)...
“Use of armed [unmanned aircraft systems] is not authorized,” the directive says.
And the full Directive is below...

If Obamao had a son it would look just like Directive 3025.18
I guess I better stop telling this motherfucker to go fuck himself or I'll be on the list.
I hope this asshole gets Gaddafi'd!
aaaaand I'm in jail... anyone have bail?
Repent! When the time comes for domestic extremists they will know that the only responsible thing to do will be to lay down their arms and submit to the will of the almighty. The prince of peace has won the war for hearts and minds and you will know that his name is Barack Obama! Praise Him, praise the one and we will declare all his glory form the roof tops and mountain tops.
Civilians? What are those? From whence do they hail? Are they anything like Martians?
Luckily for me, that label is not applicable.
Poor Obummer's gonna have to break the law to take me out.

Obama is, for the most part, a spectator president. I don't see him controlling anything at all; I see him following the script he's been given. No one can play as much golf as he does and still be "in charge."
This is a Pentagon directive signed by a Deputy Defense Secretary, William J. Lynn. Others do the thinking for Obama, just like with the past few presidents. Obama is the ultimate teleprompter politician, a mascot-figurehead for a country devolving into all-out fascism. The role of president has become largely symbolic.
This directive reeks of the Deep State we've been hearing so much about recently. If Obama "authorizes" military force against civilians, you can be certain it's because he was told to do so by the unelected permanent shadow government.

The local cops are bad enough. The sad result of a no knock warrant...
"
A family says a SWAT team raided its home in the middle of the night and seriously injured a 19-month-old boy with a stun grenade.
Alecia Phonesavanh told Channel 2’s Ryan Young her child is at the Grady Memorial Hospital burn unit, and is in a medically induced coma.
Phonesavanh said she was at her sister-in-law’s home, in Habersham County, early Wednesday when police raided the house.
Phonesavanh told Young the grenade landed in the child’s crib, and she showed him a photo of a charred portable crib.
"It landed in his playpen and exploded on his pillow right in his face," Phonesavanh said.
She also showed Young pictures of her child in the Grady burn unit. Channel 2 has decided not to share most of the photos because of the graphic nature of the child’s injuries."

It's all the rage these days to post the latest outrage-du-jour from thug cops. However, it just doesn't help if you don't have contact data to complain. For example, if you knew the officers' names or badge numbers it would be very helpful. That way you can write a complaint letter.

TSP, I see it the same way. It is nothing but the sistematic destruction of the individual by pushing them down on the Maslow's pyramyd. If Men must struggle to feed themselves there will be no time or energy left for self-actualisation, which invariable results in the conclusion that all governments are evil.

When people read the piece linked below, Obama & Company will need much more than the military to protect them!

A U.S. official said the Obama administration considered but rejected deploying military force under the directive during the recent standoff with Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy and his armed supporters.
But not against….. the Mexican drug cartels in Arizona.
Right on, Bro!
Obama doesn't know an executive order from his room service order... a complete tool from day one. All he cares about his living like a king on YT's dime.
He complained about them a lot when he was a candidate, and threatens to use them, and uses them, to get around Congress and inconvenient points of law.
He wasn't told to do so against his will. It is in the fabric of his being.
Just like his 'exceptionalism'
Spectators are far less likely to attract Hinkleys/Oswalds to advance them to martyrdom.
I wouldn't rule out an assassination just yet... It would be convenient to make him a martyr at the last minute and solidify everything "he's done" into the righteous category.
He's a puppet. The oligarch's hope is to have a violent "American Spring" here as we have seen elsewhere to "justify" a crack down. Regardless of what happens, the future is dark. People need to prepare for the worst, for America is bleeding out right now. We cannot depend on a savior, and more than likely our empire is already dead.
When uncle sugar runs out of smack, thats when they will need the troops.
Right now the yellin is working the press and the smack flows freely.
the summer right before the 2016 'elections' *cough* the serious shit hits the rotating blade..."Folks , we've got to , um, temporarily postpone the election..." >>> BOOM King Barry ...
That's the plan if you think about it, the same people that put him in power will take him out, they'll use or blame it on some white patsy and that will start a race war.
Typical military strategy, if you want to conquer a nation you get the locals to fight each other, then when they're all played out you step in and take over.
This is why they are training the military that Tea Party, John Deere hat wearing grandpa's and returned Vet's are the enemy.
Bad idea. That would leave Biden as Commander in Chief.
I think the phrase "at the last minute" is key.
Biden would be prez very briefly (then H. Clinton?)
He's very smart in that he's carried out a highly successful campaign to break the country for a tyrannical rule. He's been too clever by half in that he is setting himself up for a coup, probably by someone he trusts the most.
The question I have is: why go through all of this trouble to formalize a directive like this when you can do whatever the hell you want anyway? It's not like there is such a thing as rule-of-law today. Hell, no one can beat them in court beyond a slap on the wrist. It's all very strange.
Remember, the NAZIs liked everything nice and legal too...but legal is not necessarily lawful.
Indeed. Even after the Night of the Long Knives, the Reichstag enacted post-facto legislation to document that every killing was both necessary as an emergency measure, and completely in accordance with German law. No harm, no foul.
I enjoy clarity.
McM, I like the term you've coined: the unelected permanent shadow government.
The "UPS Gov". Is their motto "Ask what brown(shirts) can do for you"?
It doesn't exist anymore. There's no longer any protection against military being used against civiliians. Welcome to Amerika.

u fucking geezy mericans-stay home, u suck bombs ass...
expect to find perfect and to be welcomed... that is going to depend on the attitudes of the movers - even in past and present 'good' times that attitude never really works well.
Cathartes.. worm turns... yes... but some can still make a decent future and have a right to try. Most won't try or do so far too late for perm res, cap controls etc, so many spaces won't need squeezing into. Seen it before.
as someone who spent a couple of decades living in "other" nations, and travelling to even more, I have no problems with anyone wanting to live "abroad".
I do note the tendency here to choose "3rd world" style "cheap" locales where the "women" will be more compliant (well, gee, I wonder why$?) for their new homes.

I can't wait to see a bunch of black people being mowed down by machine guns, since they will be the first to riot. One can't blame them if they're hungry and looking for food to eat. But one can blame them for being ignorant enough to believe in Obozzo till this very day. Even now they refuse to believe that Obozzo is not a first black president but in fact a first Jewish president.
thanks for a great post!

Is a bear Catholic? Does the Pope shit in the woods?
these sociopaths only understand one thing: power. which, as it relates to us vs them, means force. what i'm getting at is that we lost the part of the fight where we play by the rules already. the only thing left to do now is to play by the same rules they are (none). so do your part and buy the people's reliberation army AR-15 and buckle down.
Chambered in .223/5.56 NATO as they are most abundant.
.223 and 5.56 NATO are different rounds. you can shoot .223 out of a 5.56 chambered rifle but you cant shoot 5.56 through a .223 rifle. 5.56 is a larger diameter than .223 and the NATO rounds have a much larger powder charge than .223. .223 barrels are usually thinner than 5.56 barrels so you run a major risk of the rifle blowing up in your face when you pull the trigger.
you want a 5.56 rifle with cold hammer forged barrel with 1:7 twist. more expensive but worth it.
also dont waste your time or money trying to convert a semi auto to full auto- that just empties your mag a lot faster, when things get rough you gotta make every shot count.
the great thing about these sociopaths is they tell you exactly how you can maximize your chances of beating them by constantly trying to take the things they are scared of most from you.
the list includes : AR-15 "assault rifles", clean organi food and personal farms, off the grid houses, and gold. oh and your mind. they get really pissed off when you stop watching tv or homeschool your kids.
the apparatus does not like to be questioned - even the sheep who are under control of the apparatus do not like it when the apparatus is questioned

If you look at it from a Communist perspective, the 99% of black folks that voted Obama into office have alreay served their purpose. Lenin coined an appropriate term for this group, or at least it was popularly attributed to Lenin.

Now whites that the government can make an example out of on live TV, that's another story :-)
Obama is not black!! He is 1/2 WHITE!!
He lost his black card years ago!!
The absolutely honest and correct term is MULATO (half black, half white).
People should say what they mean and mean what they say, if progress is to be had.

That is perfectly appropriate. For his legislated legalities and edicts are wholly unlawful.

See:
Liberty vs. Tyranny: Psyops and Responsibility Inflection Point is a BELLIGERENT ACTAfter a mega disaster, man caused or otherwise, big enough to destroy local and state government capabilities, the military might be the type of rugged, prepared force to go in. Imagine LA, without electricity, and so without water, sewage treatment, refrigeration. Imagine it without working motor vehicles, such as after an EMP. A US military force landing to help would be "haves" with water and food and vehicles, the desperate citizenry would be the have nots. Sort of like when the US navy landed in in Indonesia hours after the tsunami. Didn't need any laws passed to do that, because it is offshore. Remember the issues getting aid to LA after Katrina? Part of the problem was posse comitatus and the stupid local governor and mayor (D, Louisiana).
I believe that's why we have the National Guard?
Which is controlled by the governor of the state. Not O'Bozzo
Words on paper don't really mean shit when it's time to crack skulls.
This should be obvious by now.
That's no longer true. In times of "emergency," all National Guard units are "federalized."

If the swine running the show had a shred of decency, they'd publicly burn the Constitution, and put up a great sign saying, "Laws Are For The Little People!"

Those children were in terrible danger of being exposed to anti-government ideas. They were saved from that, and are now lying in Jesus' arms.
Hey, that fire was an accident, OK!
There should be nothing else on the TV everynight and everyday; but WACO, WACO, WACO; but nope. Most people have forgotten all about it. That was a defining moment, alright.

What is with all of you Social Justice violent psychopaths lately?
what do you propose as a non violent solution?
edit
you do realize the federal gov just authorized use of violence against YOU, right?
Not sure, but impeachment would do for starters.
how do you impeach when he just uses executive orders to authorize impeachable offenses? next
Bingo. Will also add that there is no way, not a fucking snowballs chance in hell, that they would ever impeach the first black president.
They would likely never even obtain a sponsor.
Gadaffi was "impeached" also when he was dragged out of his shelter, wasn't he?
Well we know that driving up to the White House barrier and putting in reverse doesn't work very well.

well, when Napoleon realized how much power he had, he just turned himself into a emperor.
I'm pretty sure there where people who didn't endorse that but nobody know who they where anymore and I don't think they got a marked grave.
Works for Mugabe...
Napoleon was a field commander...all the way to the end.
What he did he did for France and for the glory of France.
It was ironic indeed...he despised France as a child...and his father as well for being a Franco-phile.
And of course no one in France could argue with Napoleon when he said "what I did I did for you." His life was in grave danger many, many, many times and to say "he relied on his Army for his existence" is quite the understatement.
So sure..."he crowned himself Emperor." He also said "I will use the example of me if you want to know how to get ahead in this world."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Louvre
Good luck living up to that example.
He was also involved in codifying the law and enforcing it. Not ignoring it.
He solved the problem of the failed French paper money by immediately ordering that everything be paid for in gold coin. and turned chaos and failure into order and function. The French People were 110% behind him.
They named a kick-ass pastry after him.
And "kick ass" as well.
Just ask Von Clauswitz who "tried to dissect the mystery."
Von Monstein had him figured out tho. "So well he knew a good firing when he got one." His own!
Only the Nazi's would say "you're not even good enough for defending Italy."
The defense of Berlin is all yours then!
Good luck as well Chancellor Merkel!
What he did was fuck with the Rothschilds. So they mobilized...everyone they could...to stop him.
