BACK TO THE BUNKER (US agencies ready for attack)
On Monday, June 19, about 4,000 government workers representing more than 50 federal agencies from the State Department to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission will say goodbye to their families and set off for dozens of classified emergency facilities stretching from the Maryland and Virginia suburbs to the foothills of the Alleghenies. They will take to the bunkers in an "evacuation" that my sources describe as the largest "continuity of government" exercise ever conducted, a drill intended to prepare the U.S. government for an event even more catastrophic than the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/02/AR2006060201410.html

Now it's our turn again.

3. Feel Any Safer Yet?
So their sorry little behinds will be "safe" while the normal citizens get to flounder and wait for "them" to save the Mr. Joe Sixpack population. Why is it I don't feel confident that they will remember who we even are?

5. I wonder about what arrangements would be made for their families?
My sister as a nurse has been offered free flu shots but won't get them because they won't provide them for her family as well.

6. So the BFEE is planning their attack sometimes after June 19th.
Good to know. I would say, 'someone stop them this time, before it is to late' but know that no on in DC gives a shit about We the People, so I won't. All I will say is, 'goodluck, fellow citizens.' Hopefully the BFEE won't do a lot of damage (like they did on 911), but they seem to LOVE blood and murder, so be careful!!!

7. Prediction: This is no exercise - Iran will be nuked within days of 6/19
They are preparing for any possible reprisals.

8. Yep
the human race has been sold out folks. they picked the lucky (personally I think unlucky) ones who get to go underground and become the morlocks. meanwhile martial law will be decalred and they'll "secure" all of our supplies and assets so "our way of life can go on". I think we're almost to the endgame here.

9. THIS IS A DRILL, IT IS ONLY A DRILL OF THE EMERGENCY,...
,...SECRET GOVERNMENT, NOT OF OR BY OR FOR THE PEOPLE,....IT IS ONLY A DRILL!!!! (((((SCREEEEEECH)))).

Yup. Pretty disconcerting considering the FACT neither democracy or "the people's interests" are being served, but rather the corporaFATcrats' predatory behavior is being defended.

:shrug:

Ohhhhhh, ewwwwww, "bunker down".

Disgusting.

10. Great, the people who have shown over the last 6 years
to be the least supportive of the US and our Constitution are the ones who would be "saved".
:patriot:

Edited on Tue Jun-20-06 08:39 PM by chill_wind
This story was released in June. Seems like a bad week, what with Bush's missile crisis and the escalating sabre rattling with Iran and all, for them to have followed through. Did they reschedule this? Just wondering...
