“It‘s not about weapon systems, it‘s not about killing. It‘s about removing confidence in the enemy, removing the willingness to do what they think they need to do,” he said. “We‘ve lost our idea of what winning means, he said.

(30.4.2013) 1996 hatte das Verteidigungsministerium das Trainingshandbuch mit den empfohlenen Verhörmethoden wie Folter, Hinrichtung, Erpressung und die Verhaftung der Angehörigen freigegeben.

Die New York Times schrieb 1996 in School of the Dictators:

“Das neue veröffentlichte Handbuch erinnert an ein Handbuch, das die Central Intelligence Agency an die nicaraguanischen Contras in den frühen 1980er Jahren verteilte, das Entführungen, Morde, Erpressung und die Einstellung von professionellen Kriminellen empfahl. Die Reagan-Administration hat diese Broschüre sogleich verleugnet als ihr Inhalt bekannt wurde. Doch die School of the Americas befürwortet weiterhin ähnliche Methoden für ein weiteres Jahrzehnt. Eine Institution, die so eindeutig ausserhalb der amerikanischen Werte steht und so hartnäckig immun zu reformieren ist, sollte ohne weitere Verzögerung geschlossen werden.”

Nach Venezuela (2004) haben 2006 auch Argentinien, Uruguay und Bolivien angekündigt, keine Rekruten mehr in das Ausbildungslager zu schicken.

„The Department of Defense is funding the acquisition of land outside the boundaries of Fort Benning and by buying this land outside of the post, it ensures that the land is not developed in ways that are not compatible with the Army‘s mission,“ Kevin Kramer, Georgia DNR region supervisor for Chattahoochee Fall Line Wildlife Management Area.

When the banksters who run America set their sights on the newest designated enemy of democracy, without fail the assault is preceded by information operations to convince a clueless public of the target state’s burning hatred for “freedom.”

In thesis, everything would be settled. The Caliph becomes a contractor to NATO (well, he’s been on to it, sort of). The Caliph beheads Putin. The Caliph liberates Chechnya – fast; not the usual, deeply embarrassing NATO quagmire in Afghanistan. The Caliph, on a roll, attacks the BRICS – Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. The Caliph becomes NATO’s shadow secretary-general. And Obama finally stops complaining that his calls to Putin always end up on voicemail.

The Islamic State (IS) militia, which is currently the alleged target of a US-NATO bombing campaign under a “counter-terrorism: mandate, was and continues to be supported covertly by the United States and its allies.
