With his choice of Admiral Dennis Blair as director of national intelligence, President-elect Barack Obama has now named three recently retired four-star military officers to serve in his cabinet. This unprecedented representation of the senior officer corps within the incoming Democratic administration is indicative of a growth in the political power of the US military that poses a serious threat to basic democratic rights.
As head of the US military’s Pacific command in 1999-2000, Blair was distinguished by his efforts to solidarize the Pentagon with the military of Indonesia as it carried out butchery in East Timor, effectively vetoing the half-hearted human rights concerns voiced by the Clinton administration.
Before tapping Blair, Obama named former Marine Gen. James Jones as his national security adviser and former Army chief of staff Gen. Erik Shinseki as secretary of veterans affairs. It is also reported that the incoming administration may ask retired Air Force Gen. Michael Hayden to stay on as director of the Central Intelligence Agency.
The Washington Post last Saturday described this concentration of former senior officers in the administration as “an unusual trend for a Democratic administration and one that has surprised both political camps.”
The appointments follow the announcement that Robert Gates, Bush’s defense secretary, will stay on at the Pentagon, where multiple “transition teams” are at work to assure that continuity is maintained in America’s ongoing wars of aggression and that the immense power of the military remains unchecked.
Earlier this month Obama spelled out his subservience to the Pentagon by declaring, “To ensure prosperity here at home and peace abroad, we all share the belief we have to maintain the strongest military on the planet.” To that end, he has pledged to increase the size of US ground forces by 100,000 soldiers and Marines and made it clear that there will be no significant cuts to a military budget that is gobbling up some $850 billion annually under conditions of soaring deficits and an intensifying financial crisis.
There is no doubt a significant element of political calculation in Obama’s decision to surround himself with military brass and assure that he is seen as “supporting our troops.” There is, after all, the bitter experience of the last Democratic administration. Bill Clinton’s first term was nearly shipwrecked by his confrontation with the uniformed command over his proposal to scrap the ban on gays in the military. For the remainder of his presidency, he was treated with open or barely concealed contempt by much of the officer corps.
The threat of an even uglier confrontation under Obama is very real given the disastrous effects of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan on the military and reports of a growing delusional sentiment within the officer corps that the failures of the US operations in these countries were the result of a “stab in the back” delivered by the civilian authorities, the media and the American people themselves.
But there is a more fundamental process underlying both Clinton’s experience and Obama’s bowing before the military today. It is the immense growth in the power of the “military industrial complex” against which President Dwight Eisenhower warned nearly half a century ago—a power which grew uninterruptedly during the whole of the Cold War.
During the last seven years of the so-called “global war on terrorism,” this expansion of power—together with the rise in military funding—has only escalated, accompanied by increasingly sinister features bound up with US imperialism’s growing reliance on militarism as a means of offsetting the decline in its global economic position.
The military chiefs of the Pentagon’s regional commands—CENTCOM, PACOM, SOUTHCOM and the new AFRICOM—have largely supplanted ambassadors and civilian officials as the representatives of US interests and power around the globe.
Meanwhile, in prosecuting two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the military command has been tasked with running colonial-style administrations with virtually unfettered power over entire populations.
Finally, with the creation of military tribunals and military prisons, such as the one in Guantánamo, the military has usurped tasks that historically have been assigned to civilian courts operating under the rules of the US Constitution.
These momentous changes have taken place even as the military, and particularly its officer corps, has grown increasingly separate and estranged from the civilian world and become ever more dominated by Republican politics in general and evangelical Christian beliefs in particular. A “professional” and “volunteer” force, it is more insulated from the popular pressures felt by armies made up of draftees and “citizen soldiers” of earlier generations.
The Washington Post Sunday published an extraordinarily blunt opinion piece by a former assistant secretary of state in the Bush administration, Thomas Schweich, on the increasing dominance of the American state by its military apparatus.
“Our Constitution is at risk,” wrote Schweich. He warned that the elevation of an unprecedented number of former senior officers into Obama’s cabinet could “complete the silent military coup d’etat that has been steadily gaining ground below the radar screen of most Americans and the media.”
Schweich, who served as an ambassador for counter-narcotics in Afghanistan and then oversaw international law enforcement affairs at the State Department, wrote that he “saw firsthand the quiet, de facto military takeover of much of the US government,” which in Iraq and Afghanistan, he said, “was, in theory, justified by the exigencies of war.”
He stressed that what began abroad is coming home. “Now the Pentagon has drawn up plans to deploy 20,000 US soldiers inside our borders by 2011, ostensibly to help state and local officials respond to terrorist attacks or other catastrophes.” This mission, he warned, “could easily spill over from emergency counter-terrorism work into border-patrol efforts, intelligence gathering and law enforcement operations.”
A report that appeared in a magazine published by the US Army War College last month, just weeks after the election, indicates that the Pentagon is preparing its own “transition,” a process that is being driven not by Obama’s vague promises of “change” but by what the military command sees as a historic crisis of the existing order that could require the use of armed force to quell social struggles at home.
Entitled “Known Unknowns: Unconventional ‘Strategic Shocks’ in Defense Strategy Development,” the monograph was produced by Nathan Freier, a recently retired Army lieutenant colonel who is a professor at the college, the Army’s main training institute for prospective senior officers. According to the magazine, he “continues to provide expert advice to key actors in the security and defense policymaking and analysis communities.”
One of the key contingencies for which Freier insists the US military must prepare is a “violent, strategic dislocation inside the United States,” which could be provoked by “unforeseen economic collapse” or “loss of functioning political and legal order.”
He writes: “To the extent events like this involve organized violence against local, state, and national authorities and exceed the capacity of the former two to restore public order and protect vulnerable populations, DoD [Department of Defense] would be required to fill the gap.”
Freier continues: “Widespread civil violence inside the United States would force the defense establishment to reorient priorities in extremis to defend basic domestic order … An American government and defense establishment lulled into complacency by a long-secure domestic order would be forced to rapidly divest some or most external security commitments in order to address rapidly expanding human insecurity at home.”
In other words, a sharp intensification of the unfolding capitalist crisis accompanied by an eruption of class struggle and the threat of social revolution in the US itself could force the Pentagon to call back its expeditionary armies from Iraq and Afghanistan for use against American workers.
Given such conditions, he adds: “DoD might be forced by circumstances to put its broad resources at the disposal of civil authorities to contain and reverse violent threats to domestic tranquility. Under the most extreme circumstances, this might include use of military force against hostile groups inside the United States. Further, DoD would be, by necessity, an essential enabling hub for the continuity of political authority in a multi-state or nationwide civil conflict or disturbance.”
This peculiar phrase—“an essential enabling hub for continuity of authority” —is a euphemism for military dictatorship.
He concludes this section of the article by noting, “DoD is already challenged by stabilization abroad. Imagine the challenges associated with doing so on a massive scale at home.”
The point is well taken. Having failed to quell resistance and restore order in Iraq and Afghanistan, what would be the prospect of the military succeeding in an occupation of the US itself?
That these questions are being asked by the Pentagon’s strategic planners should be taken with deadly seriousness. Those commanding the armed forces of the US capitalist state foresee the present crisis creating conditions for revolution and are preparing accordingly.

Interesting article.
I thought it was a leftist piece, written by a demo-liberal adding a dash of conspiracy paradigm and truth in order set hook in mouth. What was the true purpose of the article? Was it to explain the extreme danger we may face if we give credence to the Military war college document? I mean, the document is in the public domain, right? And if that’s true anyone can read it, including our enemies…at home and abroad.
Is it a propaganda piece? No…more like a psychological technique to keep the wheels turning…bob and weave…zig and zag, etc. Keep the people guessing, keep them worried about the future and most important….keep them living in fear.
So, we have an article that mentions…”Republican war policy, evangelicals” and my favorite….”armed forces of the US capitalist state.” So what’s really going on? This isn’t a clear assessment of anything and it seems to be written for no other purpose then to fool people into thinking about the wrong things. It is a misdirection piece, sowing subtle seeds of divide and conquer and order out of chaos.
Buyer beware…always, always.
December 25th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
This is what I expected….a continuation of the Clinton-Bush police-state apparatus at home and the global interventionism war-mongering abroad. The only change will be the political role reversals of the false left-right paradigm as some of those on the left and from the Democratic Party who condemned the Bush Administration will now be approving the same policies of “the man of their choice”. Conversely, some Republicans and on the so-called right, will now condemn what they supported or allowed in timid acquiesence with Bush. Rightly was it spoken long before of this “dangerous delusion”:
“It would be a dangerous delusion were a confidence in the men of our choice to silence our fears for the safety of our rights… Confidence is everywhere the parent of despotism. Free government is founded in jealousy, and not in confidence. It is jealousy and not confidence which prescribes limited constitutions, to bind down those whom we are obliged to trust with power… Our Constitution has accordingly fixed the limits to which, and no further, our confidence may go… In questions of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.” –Thomas Jefferson:

My fellow U.S. Citizens,
If the following information puts you at odds against this current government and they consider you an enemy, just remember they are in the wrong and the following data will prove such beyond a reasonable doubt. In fact, the following officially supported data will testify to the fact that all branches of this government are complicit in the violation of Constitution of the United States and that such data is irrefutable. So please copy the following data because you might need it to testify against government officials that violate your Constitutional Rights!!!
If any government official demands that you listen to and/or obey them when it clearly violates your Constitutional rights, you do not have to obey their demands and a jury of your peers will side with the Constitution. Never and I mean NEVER allow a judge to try your case, permit only a jury of your peers to do so. I strongly suggest that you always have a video camera with you to record any such interface with them. The following factual data will prove without a doubt that the current U.S. Government is not legitimate and that a vast number of U.S. government officials (i.e. elected politicians, presidents and judges) have over many decades voted and/or ruled against the U.S. Constitutional Rule of Law. Government officials have treacherously deceived the citizens by taking the oath of office swearing to uphold our most sacred legal document the Constitution of the United States, only to later break that oath while in office by passing laws, judgments and/or signing executive orders that transgress or violate the Constitution. Many good U.S. citizens consider the Constitution to be the highest Law of the land and have trusted that the politicians, presidents and judges elected would uphold it however the evidence is overwhelming they have not. Any and all Laws or Rulings that have been passed or decreed by any U.S. politician, president or judge that violates, diminishes, abridges, nullify or circumvents the U.S. Constitution are not lawful and do not have to be obeyed. The very minute a government official violates, abridges, nullifies or circumvents the laws of the U.S. Constitution their position is terminated and violations considered invalid because they broke the oath of office. The following facts indicate that the U.S. Government has and is still illegitimate because it consistently and continually violates the U.S. Constitution. Let me just underscore that any actions taken in the United Stated which have or will violate, abridge, nullify or circumvent the laws of the U.S. Constitution will be considered acts of treason against the citizens of the United States Government. Why? because “We the People of the United States established the Constitutional rule of Law to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity”, any and all acts of treason against the expressed Law as written in the Constitution of the United States will be prosecuted in accord with such Laws.
In our article posted here on December 5, 2008, we asked, “What must a free people do, and what is the appropriate next step, if Mr. Obama refuses to respond to our Open Letter and the Supreme Court refuses to hear the Petitions by attorneys Donofrio, Berg and Taitz challenging Obama’s citizenship status?”
A violation of the “natural born citizen” clause of the Constitution by Mr. Obama is so egregious and blatant in its nature that it marks the overt and wholesale abandonment of the Constitution by the Government, making this our “capstone grievance,” capping even the other abusive Constitutional violations this Foundation has sought to correct.
Since 1995, we have repeatedly and respectfully Petitioned the Government for Redress of its violations. We have established an overwhelming and irrefutable historic record of numerous, continuing violations by the Government and its steadfast refusal to justify its behavior or be held accountable in any way. For instance:
In light of the war powers clauses of the Constitution we have an individual Right to a government that does not apply the armed forces of the United States in hostilities overseas without a declaration of war; the invasion of Iraq was unconstitutional.
In light of the money clauses of the constitution the Federal Reserve System is unconstitutional.
We, the people have not authorized the government to give or lend public money or credit to private corporations for definitively private purposes. The Treasury and Fed bailouts are unconstitutional.
We, the people have not authorized the government to create a North American union that would, for all intents and purposes, erase our northern and southern borders. The development of a North American Union is unconstitutional.
In light of the privacy clauses of the constitution, the USA PATRIOT ACT is unconstitutional,
and the developing police state is unconstitutional.
In light of the tax clauses of the constitution, the direct, un-apportioned tax on labor is unconstitutional.
In light of the Second Amendment, federal gun control laws are unconstitutional.
In light of the Second Amendment, the absence of well-regulated state militias is unconstitutional.
In light of the “faithfully execute” clause of the Constitution, the President’s failure to faithfully execute the immigration and naturalization laws is unconstitutional.
In light of the “natural born citizen” clause of the Constitution, it is unconstitutional for Mr. Obama to assume the office of President of the United States, no matter the number of people who voted for him.
In light of the spirit and intent of the Constitution, it is unconstitutional for the Government to conduct elections that do not rely on paper ballots that are hand-marked and hand-counted with results announced and posted at each polling place.
In light of the First Amendment, Government officials are obligated to respond to the People’s Petitions for Redress of Grievances/violations of the Constitution.
When a long train of abuses, usurpations and refusals to respond to Petitions for Redress of violations of the Constitution evinces a conspiracy to transition our Constitutional Republic to a pure democracy, or to otherwise strip us of our Liberties and reduce us to serfdom under absolute despotism, it is the right of the People to alter the Government, pro-actively, non-violently and with critical mass.
Since 1995, we have repeatedly and respectfully Petitioned the Government for Redress of these violations of the Constitution. Our Petitions for Redress have been answered only by a conspiracy of silence and repeated injuries. The Government has refused to justify its behavior or be held accountable.
The record is so clear and unambiguous that it leaves no room for questioning it or grasping the full import of its consequences: The servants have taken over the house that our Creator built.
What must a Free People do? What must be deemed the appropriate next step? The answer is: Read The Declaration of Independence and you will find the answer…
Sorry, I forgot to provide you the source where all the data of official documents can be obtained. Copy all the data you can from this site: http://www.givemeliberty.org/revolution/ because who knows how long it will be available and you will soon most certainly need it for protection against this insidious government.

are we not paying attention to the past? the plan(a real working plan) for the military take over of this country have been thrown about by the military elite since around the first depression. the reason they did not go through with these plans is the same then as is now. this country as a people is the most armed nation in the world. now were gonna add up some other factors here. first is the fact of the american attitude in general is to respond with a resounding f--- you. second since the resent collapse of the market has caused a spike in firearms sales from an estimated 8-40 percent.(either number is astounding considering we have 250 mill arms in u.s.) and third i personally think you have to apply some history we have been under the thumb of the military before as a country. and we fought with blood and sons to keep what was ours. this country. i would definitely agree with previous statements, that this country would put up a fight against these emperiolists to the end. like nothing they have seen before.

Who’s the dummy who wrote this article? The Military Chaplains aren’t even allowed to pray “in Jesus’s name” after prayers are made. The military is hostile to a Christianity that is “overly Christian”.

IF THESE BASTARDS IN GOVT ALLOWED AMERICA TO GET THE OIL IN OUR OWN BACKYARD(PRUDOE BAY AND GULL ISLAND, ALASKA) WE WOULDN’T NEED TO GO ELSEWHERE STARTING WARS FOR THE OIL AND NATURAL GAS!
THERE IS ENOUGH IN ALASKA TO SUPPLY OUR COUNTRY TO NEVER HAVE TO GO OUTSIDE OUR 50 STATES(NOT 57 AS OBAMA THINKS THERE IS. IMAGINE THE NEXT PRESIDENT SAYING HE HAD VISITED 57 STATES ON NATIONAL TV. WOW, TALK ABOUT THE PERFECT MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE BISEXUAL OR GAY MULATO PRESIDENT)!
TO THINK THAT IDIOTS AND PSYCHOPATHS RULE OUR COUNTRY IS REAL EASY TO SEE THEY DO: LOOK WHERE ARE HERE IN 2008!
IF YOU CANNOT SEE THE LIGHT BEYOND THE PROPAGANDA LIES THEN YOU NEED SOMEONE TO STICK UP A FIRECRACKER UP YOUR ASS TO HELP WAKE YOU UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

The wars aren’t about oil. that is a smoke screen. The oil is just a bonus & an excuse. Total power & control is the primary goal: To be able to steer the living breathing flesh & blood man & woman like a car!

Obama is a puppet of the Zionists who have been controlling America for decades.
The long awaited Jewish Messiah will be the FALSE MESSIAH aka Antichrist.
The Jewish NWO is what we call the most evil system in the history of mankind.
All those who support it are on the side of EVIL and will be cleansed from the earth with Jesus returns.
Supporting modern Israel is supporting the ANTICHRIST.
These cursed Zionists orchestrated 9/11 on us and they will orchestrate much more all over the world.

Obama is a puppet for a higher power,hes not an American..hell, he doesn’t even know what that means. I swore to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America agaist ALL ENEMYS..and that oath did not end with me taking off my uniform and becoming a civilian and any retired officer who allows or participates in an overthrow of our countrys government and its constitution are guilty of TREASON which I believe is punished by death if I recall right. So gentalmen think long and hard before you act because there are a lot more of us then there are of you.

Brandon, 9/11 was perpetrated by the Nazi’s here in America. They are the NWO, Bankers, Shadow Goverment, Military.
Do you support the theory that Rothschild (a jew) orchestrated the holocaust, consider that the word holocaust means burned offering; in exchange for satanic magic powers.
Or that it was George H. W. Bush the evil sorcerer that comands Israel and the Chinesse against America? either way then the jews who perished in the holocaust were merely collateral damage for the jewish elite. This Holocaust brought about the creation of Israel, and the NWO/ think about it jews killing jews like the early jewish cristians…Our whole story is about the jewish elite killing the jewish prophet we call Jesus…interesting.
Is that why 9/11 happened in the hearth of Jewish banking capital of the planet?

Is there any real difference between Amrican jews and Israeli jews? Cause Jewish girls are really hot and they are really nice and they love sex and are very good lovers. I wonder if this is also the case in israel?
I like jews cause they have real family values like italians and some latinos. they take care of their elderly and see after their traditions and customs. I think that they are great, I had a jewish neighbor once and I really got into their fashion and music it’s really good, it needs to be checked out. And the food is not bad either.
Geroge H. W. Bus the antichrist and evil sorcerer, who heads the CHristians in Action (CIA), created a backdoor with some Israeli firms in order to spy on Americans, cause the CIA is supposedly prohibited from doing so and the law did not forbid forwigners like Israelis to do so, in exchange we spay on Hammas and provide the intelligence that they are using today against Gaza. It’s they way daddy Bush set up the world.
He got it that way cause of all the banks they stolen money from. They have the computer program PROMIS and that’s how they steal and clone bank accounts and are the number 1 source of Identity theft in the USA. In addition to the Heroin rackets from Afghanistan and Colombia.
Ups the CIA is watching this board and now they knowe I know, OH s---, I hope I don’t end up hanging in my bathroom like that Escort chicks or the IT guy whos plane fell LIKE THAT OF Wellstone…Oh s---, why is the CIA so lousy? Their SPhy ops suck, they have gotten caught in everything from Oklahoma to 9/11 to the Buttho Assasination, it’s them all over the place…

#21 West Coast Ghost. I have been saying it also for quite sometime now and have also been censored. This data base is a serious need, like gotta have. I’m not computer savvy enough to do it or I would. It’s gonna take a younger person than myself but it is need badly. It needs to happen before the Inet gets overhauled. One of you techno geeks needs to step forward and build a site that we can post and retrieve vital intelligence to as a library of info we can access and we have a whole army of intell operatives.
