Default The Golden Age of Black Ops

The Golden Age of Black Ops
Special Ops Missions Already in 105 Countries in 2015
By Nick Turse

Quote:
During the fiscal year that ended on September 30, 2014, U.S. Special Operations forces (SOF) deployed to 133 countries -- roughly 70% of the nations on the planet -- according to Lieutenant Colonel Robert Bockholt, a public affairs officer with U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM). This capped a three-year span in which the country’s most elite forces were active in more than 150 different countries around the world, conducting missions ranging from kill/capture night raids to training exercises. And this year could be a record-breaker. Only a day before the failed raid that ended Luke Somers life -- just 66 days into fiscal 2015 -- America’s most elite troops had already set foot in 105 nations, approximately 80% of 2014’s total.

If it's not some kind of exercise, but a black Ops, does the government in that country know this and let it happen or ?

The search for new enemies gets harder every day. They're running out of bad guys to set up and knock over.
