I
would like to welcome all my readers and NSA monitors to another one of my
blogs. In this blog I would like to
explore a Department of Defense training manual. The contents of the training manual were
obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and made public by an
organization known as Judicial Watch. In
an August 24, 2013 article by Adan Salazar and posted on InfoWars it was
discussed.
Marked “for training purposes only,” the documents,
obtained Thursday through a Freedom of Information Act request submitted in
April, include PowerPoint slides and lesson plans, among which is a January
2013 Air Force “student guide” distributed by the Defense Equal Opportunity
Management Institute simply entitled “Extremism.”
It’s
a good thing it was marked “for training purposes only.” If the IQ’s of the people who read it are
anything like the people who wrote it, they may use it for a manual eating
contest, floatation device or even Frisbee.
It’s a “student guide” I guess because non-students already are
knowledgeable about this nonsense. I
like the title of “Extremism.” I think
something more accurate title for this manual would’ve been “Bowel Movement.”
It begins its introduction of a section titled,
“Extremist ideologies,” by describing the American colonists who sought
independence from British rule as a historical example of extremism.
“In U.S. history, there are many examples of
extremist ideologies and movements. The colonists who sought to free themselves
from British rule”.
Huh? This manual says that the founding fathers
who stood against taxation without representation, rights derived from God not
man, an elected government and not a monarchy etc. etc. etc. were following extremist
ideologies? I disagree. I think those who created this manual were
following extremist ideology of the stupid.
“Nowadays,” the manual explains, “instead of
dressing in sheets or publicly espousing hate messages, many extremists will
talk of individual liberties, states’ rights, and how to make the world a
better place.”
(Sarcasm
Alert) Was this manual initially written by representatives from North Korea or
Iran? Individual liberties are such an extreme
concept they could lead to people hearing the truth. When that happens they’ll become such nuts
about the freedom stuff. Who but an extremist
would want to make the world a better place?
It can no longer be denied that military and local
law enforcement crosshairs have gradually been realigned from targeting phantom
terrorists overseas to targeting domestic “extremists,” a broad,
all-encompassing term that accommodates anyone generally challenging or
questioning the status quo.
Now
there’s a comforting thought. (Real
Sarcasm Alert) I guess the TSA just doesn’t have enough work on its hands fondling
airline passengers. I guess they’re ready
to branch out and start going after those kooky liberty loving extremists who
actually believe in the US Constitution.
I’m left wondering if this DOD training manual used the communist
manifesto as a basis for its information.
After reviewing this document, one can’t help but
worry for the future and morale of our nation’s armed forces.
Isn’t
that a bit confusing? You are teaching
members of the military that they are to defend freedom and liberty. Then they’re given a manual that says those
who are willing to fight for freedom and liberty are extremists. Huh? Wouldn’t this manual in some way make members
of the military feel they are also extremists?
As Judicial Watch notes, although the documents were
obtained through the Air Force, the fact that they originated in a DOD office
means they have likely been distributed throughout the government’s various
agencies
I
may be wrong but the brilliant minds in the DOD who wrote this manual are
probably the wizards of smart that felt having Bradley Manning handle
classified material was a good idea.
