Public Intelligence has received a request from FEMA to remove a “For Official Use Only” document regarding the National Level Exercise 2010 (NLE 10), which was scheduled for this coming May. The exercise was to be based on National Planning Scenario 1 which simulates a nuclear detonation in a U.S. city. However, recent political pressure has led to the exercise being “scaled back” according to the Washington Post, Christian Science Monitor and a variety of other publications. At the behest of Senator Harry Reid (D-NV), the exercise’s Nevada events have reportedly been canceled and the FEMA website now shows no mention of NLE 10.
On top of this, the Obama administration has recently been emphasizing the threat of a domestic nuclear attack. President Obama’s remarks at the Nuclear Security Summit on April 13, 2010 emphasize that the threat of terrorists using nuclear weapons inside of major metropolitan cities is one of the “greatest threats” that the world faces...

NLE 10 concerned itself with exactly this scenario: the detonation of a nuclear device inside of a U.S. city. Las Vegas was to be the epicenter of this hypothetical attack and, if the exercise utilized the same circumstances as National Planning Scenario 1, it would have involved “hundreds of thousands” of casualties, more than 300,000 refugees and ultimately more than 1 million displaced persons.
The unpopularity of such a scenario, regardless of its security benefits, is obvious. What is strange is the attempt that is now being made by FEMA to eliminate references to the exercises and remove from circulation a document that has played an important role in drawing attention to the exercise. As the state of NLE 10 is unclear at the moment, it is difficult to say whether the request is truly motivated by security or whether there is a more dubious intention.

This would be the same kind of scenario used in the London/Madrid bombings, for example.
ReplyDeleteTurn a drill into the real thing, and since your people are right on the scene, they can grab the evidence and get rid of it.

"A Second 9/11": An Integral Part of US Military Doctrine
http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=10767
For several years now, senior officials of the Bush administration including the President and the Vice President have intimated, in no certain terms, that there will be "a Second 9/11".
We all know who the perpetrators of such an attack would be: our own government. And we all know who is pushing for this scenario the hardest: Israel. I sincerely doubt there are many people in the Pentagon and even the CIA that want to see a nuke detonated anywhere in the U.S. No military official that took part in even the smallest role could ever live with themselves. When it comes right down to it, I think our government will turn around (FINALLY) and look Israel straight in the eye and say "Fuck off!"
ReplyDeleteSince Israel and its fifth column in the former united states of America are sooooo busted over 9/11, you would think they wouldn't DARE pull that shit again.
