Brent Budowsky--December Surprise: Bush Plans Post -Election Callup Of National Guard & Reserves

[babsbunny]

American commanders in Iraq have privately
told the President that additional troops will be needed in Iraq to maintain the current policy.

Plans are secretly underway for a suprise new call up of National Guard and Reserves to be announced sometime after the election.

The Washington Post has now reported that plamning that is now classified, being kept secret from voters and military families until the election is over, could well include what the Post calls a policy change forcing a new wave of involuntary call ups.

With violence and chaos escalating in Iraq, with Iraqi police infiltrated by murderous pro-Iranian militia, with more than 20% of the Iraqi army on leave at any given time, the fact is: American troops are doing even more of the work that Iraqis should do and more will be sent to Iraq unless the policy changes.

1. But that would mean less National Guard for the coming declaration of

maritial in this country.

5. They've got the Minutemen now

I suspect enforcing martial law was the real purpose in creating this organization. And of course they've got the Blackwell and Pinkerton mercenaries to help them.

2. Recommended!

This needs to be out, loudly. Despite election results, Bush and Rummy will be there....

3. Jim Baker - who Poppy has appointed to pull Shrub out of the fire one more time -

said that we had to secure Baghdad, but nothing will be announced until after the elections.

Having said that, I thought we HAD already called up the reserves and National Guard????? We sure did something, because I remember it, and the jokes about an 80 year old man being called up, etc.

4. The current talking point-if the generals needed more troops...

...they'd ask.

We all know it's a huge lie. The current troop deployments can't be maintained without additional manpower, everyone knows it. In addition to this they are contemplating attacks on Iran.

They aren't going to tell anyone this stuff before an election. They hope that an interminable national security crisis will keep their dirty tricks, black ops, treasury siphoning, police state fraud, defense contractor welfare, going forever.

The bush family profits from war, it's what they are all about. Read American Dynasty, Aristocracy, Fortune, and the Politics of Deceit in the House of Bush, by Kevin Phillips.
