That 10 number is pretty disconcerting.

just sayin'


Its not really the one that bothers me, its that darn place holder concept thingy at the end. Just plain freaky if you ask me.

Now if Blago was still in office in IL and he was appointed to the council or whatever I would be concerned but now, not so much.

I am not seeing how you are getting more states rights out of this executive order.

It is the Biblical connotation of 10 that is worrying to me.

Thanks. That was perfect.

Now I really do not see how anyone can come to the conclusion of more state rights coming of this.

SEC. 2. DEFINITIONS.
In this Act, the following definitions apply:

(15) The term ‘‘terrorism’’ means any activity that—
(A) involves an act that—
(i) is dangerous to human life or potentially
destructive of critical infrastructure or key resources;
and
(ii) is a violation of the criminal laws of the United
States or of any State or other subdivision of the United
States; and
(B) appears to be intended—
(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
(ii) to influence the policy of a government by
intimidation or coercion; or
(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass
destruction, assassination, or kidnapping.


Wow, by their own definition the federal government is a terrorist organization. If the current economic crisis and misappropriation of tax payer dollars doesn't "involve an act that is destructive of key resources and is... AHHHH, wait, I see their loophole. "In violation of criminal laws of the United States..." no mention of Constitutional law or Constitutional rights. OK then, all is well and our government is still okie-dokie!

There are 10 governors most likely because there are 10 EPA regions, and also 10 FEMA regions.

Notice the following map:

People are asking what he's preparing Martial law for... Here's my opinion


They are planning a false flag operation to hide our economic collapse, so that even though economy will collapse as a result, the power hierarchy will remain and be able to live to see another day. Remember the 2.3 trillion missing the day before 9/11? Everybody forgot about it real quick. People would forget the true reason that the economy collapsed and give the government, and Wall street, anything they want, instead of being pissed off about a failed system that collapsed on its own. It will also give them reason to launch an attack in Iran.

I started a thread on it last night (by coincidence) here:

THE WHITE HOUSE,January 11, 2010.

Ziggy - If you read it it's an advisory council intended to promote the free sharing of information related to the interests of the States as it relates to homeland security and civil defense. The can spend some money to do this but will not be paid a salary. To spend money both sides have to agree. It must be legal under current law.


Ziggy - Everybody wins.

Ziggy - If you see more there, then you are taking individual statements out of context.


Ziggy - Finally

This order is not intended to, and does not, createany right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable atlaw or in equity by any party against the United States, itsdepartments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, oragents, or "any other person"
BARACK OBAMA

Ziggy - Read the last quoted statement. That includes you. Swords cut 2 ways. No right or benefit given by it. No law can be enforced against anyone due to this order.

Ziggy - If anything is implemented, it will be voluntarily and under current law. Approved by States.

It's a discussion group that can strengthen the Partnership between The Fed and The State.

Sounds like an EO that benefits everyone.

So who is right?

Ziggy

Well it really doesn't get much more specific than that, does it?? This seems to be exactly describing the situation. 10 Kings that haven't yet been granted their power.

WOW. No time to freak out.. But WOW.

Another false flag would not be accepted by the American people not any more.
Which would be a damn good reason for the order.

They are getting scared and that may not be good.

I dissagree. Sure, a lot of people have "woken up" but its still a very small percentage. Under 1%, for sure.

Atleast 99% of people believe that Sept. 11 was not a false flag. Sometimes it doesn't seem that way cause we hang around groups that mostly tend to agree with us. However, the American public at large is still under their spell.

Another false flag would be no problem for them, especially if say, it was a suitcase nuke. That would be a lot less loose ends than 9/11 and they would probably be able to pull it off with no real evidence it was a false flag.

The American public would just eat it up, hook, line and sinker.

If it is mis-written/referenced, then isn't the entire document unlawful? I'm sure that the PDF from whitehouse.gov is the official document that is signed and passed into law by POTUS, so why did he/they fail to notice that huge mistake?!

No offense intended, but, why wait 10 years?
A suitcase would have kept Bush in power for an extra term.

What? It's a game of tag?

The number 10 is only significant in this context for people that are afraid.

The ultimate false flag operation was The Bush Admin, and the fear mongering that created fear in good people like you.

I'm going to agree with you then, as it really dosn't make any difference does it? Write it off as overly hopeful. I was under the impression it
was more like 5%. No biggy really.

Uh oh... This is not good at all. If the EO was signed while written with a reference to Paragraph 14 instead of Paragraph 15, then in the future they can legally allow any state and its National Guard to commit acts of terrorism as defined by Paragraph 14.

We might actually be screwed if this EO was actually signed with a reference to the definition of "terrorism". :|

If this measure had been in place during hurricane Katrina perhaps there would have been better preparation and response.My observation is that the federal and state agencies were delayed while they sorted out who was to be in charge. The exception being the US Coast Guard, they just went to work.


Maybe 'cause that's not what FEMA is good at doing. Hmmm?
