But is it not also possible that those Generals were trying to get their hands on nukes to use for various purposes in the event the American people have to launch an insurgency against a government which has rejected the law of the land, and overstepped its lawful authority to an extent no other option remains?
Obama is clearly trying to eliminate people capable of individual thought, people with the backbone to directly oppose policies whose intent is more or less obviously to degrade our armed forces, all while creating Billion bullet inventories, tanks, and other assault weaponry for the Committee for Public Safety. Scratch that, the Department of Homeland Security.
Clearly, purges are going on: http://mobile.wnd.com/2013/10/top-generals-obama-is-purging-the-military/#S4bUxH6gDrybhsXA.01
These are Stalin-style purges, where anyone even suspected of disloyalty is being removed.
But here is the thing: this is America, not Russia, and we have breathed the air of freedom now for several centuries, and even the biggest pussy on the block cannot be counted on if Obama launches a full blown coup REGARDLESS of the circumstances, which we can assume will be severe (epidemic, economic crisis, nuke, all originating with Obama’s backers).
Obama–and more importantly Valerie Jarrett–cannot know how our military will react when facing unique circumstances. They cannot assume they will stand idly by while Einsatzgruppen scoop up political opponents and make them disappear. They cannot assume individuals will not attack their own units. They cannot assume all units will obey orders to fire on dissidents.
To my way of thinking, the best, most useful course of action for true patriots in the military is to shut up, not make noise, and outwardly act obedient. There is no point complaining and letting them identify you. You know how this thing works. Don’t post negative comments ANYWHERE. Don’t talk openly with any but your closest friends. Don’t scowl when you salute pictures of Obama (if this is something people do: I know his picture is in most buildings as being at the top of the chain of command). If you have to take lie detectors or loyalty oaths, figure out how to beat them. Play poker.
Wait and see. If we are lucky, we get Rand Paul or Ted Cruz in the White House in 2016, and are able to start dismantling this machinery of oppression.
If we are not lucky–if Jarrett feels too desperate–then you will be positioned in the places where you can do the most good.
The goal is to make the risk so high that it is never taken. Looking in as well as looking out, the goal is deterrence through potential strength.
