Kinda like how Obama is both a Nazi and a Commie?

He's a Nazi...and a Commie.
He's a Muslim....and an atheist.
He's a ruthless dictator who spies on and imprisons his enemies...and a weak, Mom-jeans-wearing wuss who won't stand up to his enemies.

A man of whoever you need him to be, our President(s).

Guys we just leave it here. I didn't knew it was a conspiracy(thought that WT was a decent and mainstream media)

I know that every American President have been accused of almost every conspiracy-like-stuff and so will the next coming President be

^ Not his fault! goes back to Thomas Jefferson, the first Democrat, and his first lady (Sally Hemmings) and his inaugural address after a bitter election: " “Every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We have called by different names brethren of the same principle. We are all Republicans, we are all Federalists.” Whatever their differences, both parties are loyal to the same Constitution and its principles—though they may interpret and apply them somewhat differently.

You probably didn't know, but The Washington Times was founded by the Reverend Sun Myung Moon of the Unification Church ("Moonies") fame. It's always had a rather hard-right, super-conservative reputation. As a newspaper, it loses money every year, but the cult...um...church keeps it afloat.

@mapuc

I hope you're not under the impression myself and others are trying to mock or belittle your OP; you are very probably unaware of the provenance of the article and/or the news paper it came from. Here in the US, there has been an awful lot of these sort of wildly exaggerated claims over many, many years, if not decades. The sad thing is the rest of the world, not knowing the full context, quite often takes these reports as truth. If it is any consolation, an awful lot of US citizens are prone to accepting erroneous, out of context reports from outside news sources as truth, often skewing our viewpoint of the rest of the world. You are not alone in this...

Ya, never trust any North American (includes Canada) news media to tell all the truth.

I saw the link on a friends friend and I couldn't write on his wall, saying it was a conspiracy(after I had posted it here on Subsim)

Earlier today some other had shared this information and here I could post an answer I wrote it was nothing more than a conspiracy

About 10 minutes later another person posted this link as an answer to my post

http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/c...df/302518p.pdf

I can read English but juridical English I'm not good at.

I still say it's a conspiracy

I studied the link and from what I have learned the US military has their own domain .mil

Thanks for posting the link, Markus. I think you'll find the most important description and point is here.

Quote:
g. Federal military commanders, Heads of DoD Components, and/or responsible DoD civilian officials (hereafter referred to collectively as "DoD officials") have IMMEDIATE RESPONSE AUTHORITY as described in this Directive. In response to a request for assistance from a civil authority, under imminently serious conditions and if time does not permit approval from higher authority, DoD officials may provide an immediate response by temporarily employing the resources under their control, subject to any supplemental direction provided by higher headquarters, to save lives, prevent human suffering, or mitigate great property damage within the United States. Immediate response authority does not permit actions that would subject civilians to the use of military power that is regulatory, prescriptive, proscriptive, or compulsory.

According to that clause the document gives the Department Of Defense the authority to respond to requests for help from state and local authorities to help with situations that threaten lives or property. The last sentence specifically forbids the military from using that article to do anything against US citizens.

Im surprised no one has commented on the U.S. Army doctrine recently approved by the current administration which allows them to turn U.S. citizens into a zombie army. Then using specially trained Kenyans to lead the Zombie army to capture citizens of foreign nations and turn them into slaves of the party.
