Can I Have Your Attention Please, Something Is Wrong!

[Smitty-48]

JSOC has become such a leviathan now, probably not a bad thing to undermine it, it's like a mini CIA and it's not even that mini.

We need a deep cleaning in a lot of areas. I'm not aware of these types of issues in JSOC, but it wouldn't surprise me. It works hand in hand with the Intel Community and they have proven to be politically corrupt.

It's not even working hand and glove, they co-opt OGA's to JSOC's interests, JSOC is an empire unto itself.

The CIA used to be the America's secret army, but that's JSOC naow.

And it's vertically integrated, they have their own HUMINT, they have their own SIGINT, it's one stop shopping, all capabilities under one roof, mini CIA, mini NSA, they can do it all.

And of course, JSOC; not subject to Posse Comitatus.

The only formation in the military that isn't, cause "counterterrorism"

The CIA can't operate in America, but JSOC can.

All the capabilities of the CIA and the NSA, and they can go after anybody, anywhere, at anytime, all they have to say is "counterterrorism"

And they're not law enforcement, and they're not an intelligence agency, so they don't need a warrant.

They don't report to the legislature, they don't report to the judiciary, they operate entirely by Executive Order.

What's project mocking bird and mkultra then?

Mkultra wasn't an operation, project mockingbird was pretty tame stuff by today's standards, don't need JSOC for that, everything is wiretapped naow.

JSOC can laser mike your conversations with no bugs at all, watch your every move with GorgonEye™, hack your car and drive you into a tree, what was that guy's name again? The one who outed McCrystal?

Rats the JSOC commander out, then just "drunk drives" himself into a tree at a hundred miles an hour? That's quite the kwawinkydink. If that happened in Russia, no one would have any doubts as to who did it.

Exhibit A: War Machine
In real life, as it was for McMahon in the film, the fallout for McChrystal was swift. The day after the story leaked, Obama summoned the general to the White House, where he offered his resignation. “The conduct represented in the recently published article does not meet the standard that should be set by a commanding general,” Obama explained to the public. “It undermines the civilian control of the military that is at the core of our democratic system.”

The past 15 years of American war in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere have brought the public several incarnations of a very particular media archetype: the übermensch general.

The narration feels downright scoldy at times, lecturing the audience on how the real message of McMahon’s story is not the general’s own failings but the unwinnability of the war in Afghanistan—a point that would be better taken if most of the movie weren’t devoted to establishing the general as a deluded doofus.

Exhibit B: CNN Report On The Mystery of Michael Flynn
-Flynn Facts
-commentators include such luminaries as James Clapper.

This is a coordinated, never before seen, propaganda attack against JSOC and the last generation of Generals who were schooled in traditional American ideas.

What confuses me though...if Gen Flynn flipped on Trump and figures to be a star witness, why would CNN run a news piece attacking his character, particularly accusing him of making up "Flynn Facts"?

There is a lot of dog whistle racism in this post. "Afghanistan?" Nice code for dune coon. Seriously delete this disgusting thread. This is a new low for you.

Thread title is JUST A BIT over the top.

I think the thread title holds up well.

Just heard a Democrat say he is offended by the attacks on LEOs by Republicans.

There really isn’t.
