Intresting thing on Randi Roades Show... soldiers temporarily converted t

[FighttheFuture]

Randi Rhoades show had an interesting call in from a active military person (named "William") who was over in Iraq . This from the 5/13/04 show, 6:51 pm CST on WKPOJ/620. Her show is delayed three hours I think, so this would put it at 3:51 CST (or 4:51 EST) I believe.

They would take active soldiers out of units. "retire" them ahead of schedule, then send them to work for the civilian contractors (e.g. Haliburton) as plain clothes.

Then they would be cycled back into the military after 6 months. Back in service.

What was the incentive for the soldier? Not money, even though the private company was (probably) charging full price the soldier never saw a dime. The military guy would have his normal military salary paid for that time, waiting for him when he rolled back into the military. The big incentive was a rank promotion "there's a tech sgt. position waiting for those who volunteer", he offered as an example.

This provides cover for the generals at the top saying no military unit was involved in this or that while allowing the chummy private contractors to get bodies so they can charge the government.

1. I heared it and think Randi handled it as well as she could, but,

it seemed awkward.

If this is the truth we are really far beyond any horrible things we could ever imagine.

I cannot get Realplayer at work so I listen via WMP via

4. The Bush Cartel have corrupted every gov dept to revolve around

their corporate donors, especially Halliburton.

Boy, this is over the top and no one is steping forward to speak out against these gangbangers. <sigh>

[swhisper]

7. Once she investigates and validates it, she

will inform us. The man clearly was dying to tell his story to her, as investigative reporters are very hard to find these days. Hopefully, more will whistle-blow the Pentagon as facts come to light

[peacetalksforall]

21. Caution...maybe we shouldn't say 'dying' to talk to her

[newyawker99]

33. Hi swhisper!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[oregonjen]

10. Did she say she would talk to him off the air?

Will she dig further or let it go?

[Mel]

23. Yes I think she did and he wanted to

talk to her off air. When she came back she made it clear to any soldier that called her that she would Not ever give their name. I believe her.

[swhisper]

26. She did talk to him off air

and on air, assurred all of us she would keep any further "items" SOURCES confidential. It was juicy, whatever it was.

16. Not LBN

should be moved to GD

[0007]

27. btt

[FighttheFuture]

30. It is LBN!

This was on the RR Show a couple of hours ago. Her information, while presented in an opinionated way, is much more accurate than the majority of the mainstream news.


If it can be researched and confirmed, it would be explosive beyond belief!

[Just Me]

24. I believe this may be happening to a relative of mine,...

,...and that relative doesn't even know it,...YET!!!!

I'm going to have to do a bit more tie-up, though, before I can convince that relative because,...well, just because.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

25. This is called being "seconded" and it is an old black ops

way of getting people for dirty work.

My entire squad was seconded to the CIA for 6 months, well, we assumed it was the CIA because of some of the people we met and worked for in that time. No one ever said for sure what agency it was, but it sure as hell was not DOD, cause there was no military chain of command at all.
Only a guy named Bob.

This is nothing new. Just the same old crap that lost VietNam in action again.

[Democat]

29. Contact Salon.com with this information!

These are the kind of stories that the media needs to be investigating. Maybe it's bullshit, but if it's true, it needs to be exposed!

[lostnfound]

32. I just emailed DemocracyNow with it, too. nt

[Lostnote03]

31. Enron???

.......wasn't this practice utilized by Enron as well???....I seem to recall Intel "heads" placed on leave to assist the Enron cabal.....I keep thinking of Mussolinis characterization of FASCISM as more accuratly described as CORPORATISM.....HAIL TO THE BOARD!!!!!
