CONCERNING THAT MILITARY EXERCISE IN SAN ANTONIO

V.T. spotted this one, and as you can guess from the title of today's blog, it has me wondering. The American military is conducting some sort of military exercise - we used to call them wargames before they became "drills" before they became "exercises" - in Sant Antonio, Texas, a city the following article reminds us is the U.S.A.'s 7th largest:

'San Antonio is being invaded!': Texas residents are woken by explosions and low flying military helicopters as US military captures the town in surprise training exercise

Here's what the San Antonio police had to say about the "exercise":

The training sessions are taking place for four days this week from 6pm until 3am, and they include air and ground mobility operations, and close-quarter combat training in a dark and realistic environment, San Antonio police shared on Facebook.

'The meetings and planning for this training event began months ago,' SAPD Police Chief William McManus said in a press release.

'Being that San Antonio is known as Military City, USA, we have a long history and strong relationship with the U.S. military, and we're honored to be able to provide support to the U.S. Army as they conduct this critical training in our city.,' he added.

Safety precautions were set in place to protect participants and residents, along with planning considerations to minimize impact to the community and private property.

San Antonio Police said it will also be on-site to ensure the safety of both citizens and participants.

The article goes on  to mention that in spite of attempts by local authorities to warn the city's residents, may report that they were unaware of them, or of their scale. And one resident apparently had some suspicions:

Another resident reported the military to police, while one person warned his neighbors: 'Beware: The Exercise is not Military. Lock your Doors. And be vigilant.'

Now I have no objection to the military holding wargames, or "exercises" as they're calling them now, and indeed, there may be more in that terminological change than meets the eye... we'll get back to that. For now I want to focus on the basic idea of wargames themselves. Every military conducts them, in peace and in war. It's a crucial component of evaluating training, doctrine, support, command,... everything.

Nations also conduct them to send messages to potential enemies. We've all witnessed in the past few days the joint military drills of the USA, Indonesia, and other nations in the Pacific, and of Communist China in the waters and air space around Taiwan. The messages usually are designed to intimidate, and to show opponents some of the capabilities of one's own military, to make them think twice about direct confrontations.

With respect to the U.S.A., it is not the first time its military has held drills on American soil or airspace; just think  of all of those drills being conducted on...er....uhm... 9/11. In many cases those drills were only made general public knowledge after the event, like...er...uhm.... 9/11.

But now the "exercise" is announced, guns are fired, explosions are heard, helicopters are seen.

So what's going on?

Well, as I said, such "exercises" are usually held not only for training, but to send messages. Now here's the problem: why train in San Antonio? If one is worried about the military's competence to fight in urban situations, well, geez, we built whole miniature towns in the southwestern deserts to test nuclear bombs... why not build whole towns to test urban warfare training and doctrine? Expensive? Yes. But maybe less expensive than the cost of local security and economic disruption caused by having an "exercise" in a real city. If the message was intended for potential foreign invaders, why not conduct the drill in a foreign city, or one closer to it, like Chicago, Sacramento, San Franfreakshow, New York? I jest, but only partially, because this really is my main point: perhaps the message here is precisely to San Antonio, and perhaps to Texas and "Texas-sympathizers", and the message is, be afraid, be very afraid. Texas, after all, has shown some recent policies, going back to its bullion depository and up to and including trying to complete Mr. Trump's wall, and sending illegal migrants to places like Swampington DC. Texas, in other words, like other states, is saying no to the swamp and the vile creatures therein.

In a country that has become a banana republic with an evident unequal application of law, and where the Swamp follows the dictates of Lavrenty Beria, investigating a man until one finds a crime, no matter how miniscule, to prosecute; a banana republic where all the courts in the relevant jurisdiction are packed and prejudiced against the political opposition; I'm not surprised at all by this. If so, watch for more "exercises" over time, in places like Cheyenne, Bismarck, Nashville... you get the idea...

See you on the - Oh, one more thing. You know all those 87,000 IRS agents they want to shoot to kill, in a country having trouble finding recruits for its military?  Well, what better place to find employment for all those people streaming across the borders the government does not want to enforce... A mercenary army and mercenary armies of bureaucrats to serve a corrupt and criminal oligarchy bought and paid for by corporate "governments" with special "private" jurisdictions under the aegis of "national security" ... where have I heard that story before?

See you on the flip side...

    I saw an article on the fact that 20 % of american households now are well behind on their electricity bill.
    And in weeks they’ll start cutting the power of household all over the place.
    This on top of fuel anf food crisis aresure to make the perfect storm for some riots.
    The middleclass are about to be wiped out worldwide, theres no doubt its by design and a wanted scenario.
    And after the middleclass is gone, whats left is slavery. Im sure they need to practice how to enforce such a thing as well.

    My impression is that the army of IRS agents will be needed to determine who gets what after the “Great Reset.” Of course, in that looming environment they will have to be armed, just like your mailman. As for the military dry-runs in Texas, they are almost certainly pre-enactments of events soon to occur. Watch the military with great care. Who is being discharged, who promoted? Are units with ideological dependability being fostered, much like the Democrat soldiers guarding the White House following the selections. Also, watch as the media begins to harp on abortion and the ‘Conservative’ Supreme Court rejection of the student loan handouts in preparation for explaining the unexpected and unprojected landslide victories by desired candidates in the upcoming ‘elections’. Of course, when it is time to mail in your stacks of ballots, the emergency will be in full swing food wise, so it may not be necessary to go on with that charade…. The histories of the Bolshevik and Weimar regimes provide useful insight into a great deal of what is currently under way. I’d imagine that billions are about to begin dying through famine, and opportunistic disease and warfare in the so-called third world. This is not an accident. And it is not a result of the sort of stupidity to which it will be attributed. This was devised. It will spread.

    It would be well worth investigating if the military drill was a smoke screen for a real event taking place in / around San Antonio.
    Here in the UK, there was a similar military exercise to hide a UFO that materialized in the early hours in Wales. The UK military authorities knew it was coming and going to materialize. They were waiting for it with helicopters and aircraft. They chased and shot at it and there was a very loud explosion which registered on the Richter scale!
    The book, written by eyewitnesses detailing what happened in great depth, is a superb read.

    Again …
    ???? Why does not one EVER mention Israel ???? Russia-China AND Israel are Targeting the U.S.

    We should be sending troops to Israel to occupy them and clean out. Did you Intel and Microsoft “core coding” is ALL done in Israel? Have you heard of Unit 8200 and the Talpiot Program? It’s a military school to groom military-trained students in cyber-security/terrorism to become CEOS, executive, cyber engineers and coder in top cyber-security firms – the last CEO of Microsoft in Israel was from this school. They have “backdoored” the Pentagon – this should be HEADLINE news!

      Not one media group or politician will even say the word “Israel” … this is a disaster.

    Must I ask the question who is really in charge of the CSA? It’s certainly not the thralls in Foggy Bottom.



  6. Mr Sophistication on August 19, 2022 at 4:15 pm

    Toledo, Ohio (where I’m from and currently am); Feb 2008: Mayor Finkbiner refused to allow Michigan Marine reservists conduct urban combat training in the downtown district.

    https://www.wtol.com/article/news/marine-training-session-shut-down-by-toledo-mayor/512-01e1c148-8dde-41e0-9818-3d3dc04be98a

    The local San Antonio government most likely allowed that large military exercise to happen. If rinky-dink Toledo can tell the Marines no, the 7th largest city in America should be able to say no.

      Don’t think that the Lone Star State is above turning on it’s popuation. You’ve said yourself, Dr. Farrell that you wouldn’t put anything past these peoole.

      There’s also the possibility that the Central American cartels could lay siege to a Texas city like when the Sinaloa cartel beat the Mexican Army in Culiacan…
      https://time.com/5705358/sinaloa-cartel-mexico-culiacan/

      Or like the more recent cartel war in Tijuana…

      It’s not surprising that the local folks of San Antonio, TX, allowed military training exercises to include San Antonio. There’re around 5 large military bases surrounding San Antonio almost as if to be a very big fort or fortress. Local folks know who run the city and surroundings and that the military work for them. They’re very familiar with military protocol as well as is the military very aware of their position in local surroundings. Many active duty from the bases live in San Antonio itself. Nearly everyday life for Texan’s there who are not of the propaganda brigade and [down-with-the-USA-group-of-misfits] despite babbling baloney on rent-a-networks and Marxist group therapies wanting their way with what isn’t theirs.

    I’m an outside observer, but I’ve thought for a while that Texas is being targeted by somebody because of its independent streak, size, and relative economic, political, and cultural(?) strength. The engineered immigration chaos, droughts, and denigration in the mainstream media sure look like they’re all part of a coordinated assault on Texans’ economic life, morale, and public image. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if the military drill were intended to be, among other things, a message to Texas and its people. I would, however, be surprised if it had much impact.

    This is very reminiscent of the EXACT same thing happening in San Antonio back in the late 90s. Here is Alex Jones’ Police State 2000 where they interview the police chief of San Antonio on how the Delta Force approached him, the mayor, and others to run “exercises” in their city. Go to 25min for the specific interview but the whole movie is “good” in a nostalgic way…

    Be very afraid?!?!?! Nonsense! But the [back-to-the-ole-Soviet-wan-na-bee-Union-types-ought-to-be]. Armchair strategizing from propaganda is frail and failing as are the volatile logistical tactics boasted about in eastern Europe. One thing that has changed for the better, at least for now, is a general return to DEFCON 3 down from DEFCON 2. European Command remains at DEFCON 2 due to The Ukraine volatility on the ground.

    The hype of a swift great WIN in eastern Europe has not happened likely due to miscalculation of resolve and idiotic underestimation of people supposedly familiar of the lower masses from oligarchical lofts.

    Immigration through military training and participation is not anything new in the US. One has seen this evident firsthand. Although the numbers have increased, especially, of military aged people, there’s no great threat of armed invasion. That these same numbers also represent a probable and potential working age group increase bodes well in general. Vetting of this immigrant increase needs work but so does armchair propagandizing and false media exploitation need to be brought back to the planet surface.

    One has participated in military drills/exercises as well as evaluated performances of tactics/skills and reported on where improvements might serve future training and battlefield scenarios. Each is a different world from the other just as propaganda and real-world witness are two different scenarios. Both are dynamic while one is highly volatile.

    One is in favor of more exercises involving civilian support. It’s a way of better knowing facts from fiction and not being so prone to hype through ignorance. If humankind were so angelic there probably wouldn’t be a conflict on the planet’s surface.

    Those folks directly involved in the exercises are usually concentrating on their skill tasks to accomplish mission goals and not worried about how their messaging taps out on some hacked device.

    As for the [States] beginning to exercise their rights as States, . . . that’s been a long time coming. . .

    USSA war games or exercises have a tendency to go live; as in 9/11, for example.
    Or, in covid1984[IMO].
    So when these “exercises” are announced; I prepare by examining, cui bono?
    San Antonio Texas is being invaded by? The Commiecrats?
    No, that’s already happened.
    A show, for Texans thinking of succession?
    Or, a show stopper? [installing a puppet government in Texas?]
    Or, an exercise to install Marshall law – Anywhere/Anytime USSA?
    Will the local police share intelligence and “troops on-the-ground”, in the exercises?
    Or, are the local police already sharing intelligence w/the military?
    Safety precaustion have already been set in-place
    [local/national medias have numerous pre-written scripts to cover and control narratives]
    Hey, I don’t put ANYTHING past these Commiecrats!
    [some may wonder, is Robert be sarcastic – or not?]

    How many Texans will be participating?
    Were they vetted?
    Were the participants vetted for USA vs USSA affiliation?[believe in state rights?]

    Oh! And that the new IRS Federales being hired right after they cross the borders?
    Cross the border; and the USSA bureaucracies step in pronto.
    Presto! New papers. New citizenship. New job: IRS Federale.
    Again.
    I wouldn’t put anything past the Commiecrats.
    Sarcasm?
    Or, a thin line between Arab box cutters and the real deal?
    Or, is that, in itself – sarcasm?
    When the line is that thin; there’s no need, esplaining it.
