Obama Legalized Slavery In America

From HERE:

As he tries to ban the Confederate battle flag for allegedly supporting slavery over 100 years ago, Obama himself is guilty of creating an Executive Order stating he can enslave any American he wants to!

Obama’s EO 13603 Reintroduces Slavery to America

The Common Sense Show

Maybe this picture located near baggage claim at Denver International Airport will make a little more sense after reading this article.

As you read the following paragraphs, please keep in mind that the United States is already in a state of national emergency declared by President George W. Bush on September 14, 2001 and this was extended last year by President Obama. As the reader will clearly see in this article, this means that the United States is now in a state of martial law.

Executive Order 13603 Declares de facto Martial Law

“Papers please,” was a phrase that Americans used to utter in sarcastic tones in order to cast a negative light upon the totalitarianism of first Hitler and then later, Stalin. In the present era, Obama has issued a similar edict and your papers have been issued to each and every one of us and those papers say that we are literal slaves to the state. Yes, under Obama’s Executive Order (EO) 13603, all Americans are now slaves to the whim of the state under both emergency and non-emergency conditions. Legal scholars agree, we are under martial law and it is totally unconstitutional and illegal.

The Legitimate Authority for Government Comes from the Constitution

Article I, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution states: “All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States.” The key phrase here is: herein granted. Those powers granted to Congress by the States and the People are delineated in Article I, and primarily in Section 8 of the same. Nowhere does the Constitution say that federal agencies can “allocate” all food, energy, water, food and all labor. However, this is precisely what EO 13603 calls for. This EO would be concerning enough. However, this EO turns every American into a slave through the stroke of Obama’s pen.

Loving Your Enslavement

According to EO 13603, the President, or the head of any federal agency that he shall designate, can conscript “persons of outstanding experience and ability without compensation,” in both “peacetime and times of national emergency.” I can hear the Obama supporters now as they will write to me and say, “Obama would never do that, you are drinking from the Kool-Aid”. Well, here it is, you can read it for yourself.

Sec. 502. Consultants. The head of each agency otherwise delegated functions under this order is delegated the authority of the President under sections 710(b) and (c) of the Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 2160(b), (c), to employ persons of outstanding experience and ability without compensation and to employ experts, consultants, or organizations. The authority delegated by this section may not be redelegated.

This means that Obama, and his fellow communists, can seize any resource, property, or person at any time for any reason, including being able to force that person to perform assigned labor without being paid.

There is only ONE word for forced, “uncompensated employment”. That would is slavery. Congratulations President Obama, you have effectively repealed the 13th Amendment to the Constitution.

Section 601 of the act specifies, in part, how far the government can go in terms of making you their slave.

Sec. 601. Secretary of Labor. (a) The Secretary of Labor, in coordination

with the Secretary of Defense and the heads of other agencies, as deemed

appropriate by the Secretary of Labor, shall:

(1) collect and maintain data necessary to make a continuing appraisal

of the Nation’s workforce needs for purposes of national defense;

(2) upon request by the Director of Selective Service, and in coordination

with the Secretary of Defense, assist the Director of Selective Service

in development of policies regulating the induction and deferment of

persons for duty in the armed services;

(3) upon request from the head of an agency with authority under this

order, consult with that agency with respect to: (i) the effect of contemplated

actions on labor demand and utilization; (ii) the relation of

labor demand to materials and facilities requirements; and (iii) such other

matters as will assist in making the exercise of priority and allocations

functions consistent with effective utilization and distribution of labor;

(4) upon request from the head of an agency with authority under this

order: (i) formulate plans, programs, and policies for meeting the labor

requirements of actions to be taken for national defense purposes; and

(ii) estimate training needs to help address national defense requirements

and promote necessary and appropriate training programs

If the above section was merely going to be a military draft, then the Secretary of Labor would not have to be involved. However, as you will note the “Secretary of Labor, in coordination with the Secretary of Defense and heads of other agencies, as deemed appropriate by the Secretary of Labor, shall: …assist in the development of policies regulating the induction and deferment of persons for duty in the armed services;… formulate plans, programs, and policies for meeting the labor requirements of actions to be taken for national defense purposes; and (ii) estimate training needs to help address national defense requirements and promote necessary and appropriate training programs…”. Refer back to section 502 of sections 710(b) and (c) of the Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 2160(b), (c); these are the people that the Secretary of the Labor will conscript in order “to employ persons of outstanding experience and ability without compensation and to employ experts, consultants, or organizations”.

This, my fellow Americans, is a civilian conscription and this is why the Secretary of Labor is in charge instead of the head of the Selective Service! Under these provisions, the government believes that they can send you anywhere, to work on anything of their choosing.

The Other Shoe Has Already Dropped

This is not some futuristic drama in which we are awaiting for the other shoe to drop. These policies are underway right here, right now. Consider the questionnaire which has been given to all employees by the Arizona Department of Education in which education employees are required to fill out the following assessment of job skills as the government begins to inventory job skills on behalf of FEMA and DHS.

FEMA has published a training manual which serves as the rough draft model for school safety to be enacted by all 50 versions of the State Department of Education, in times of an emergency. Of particular importance and relevance is a document from the Arizona Department of Education entitled “Staff Skills Survey and Inventory“, which is located on page 76 of their school safety manual.

The following is a verbatim copy and paste of the referenced document.

Where Will Obama’s Minions Send You?

Is this where we will be working at some future date?

Will the Obama administration, or some future administration, send you to a detention camp to work? Will you be transported overseas to work? It is obvious that families will be separated. If the parents are split up to different locations, what happens to the children? Will CPS raise your children in your absence? With legislation this broad, anything is possible.

Since we know that the administration will be controlling all food, will we all be systematically starved to death as we complete our work for the state? There is historical precedent for this statement.

I can only speak for myself, I will not submit to this tyranny. I would rather be dead than live under these types of conditions. If this does not motivate you to stand up to this tyranny, then nothing will.

Congratulations my fellow Americans, you are the property of the state. Now, what are we going to do about this latest brand of tyranny?

Racist Liberal "Judge" Throws Murder Case, Slanders Prosecutor

From HERE:

Prosecutor who compared accused murderer to an ‘animal’ in opening address blamed for causing mistrial

Murder victim Tania Cowell, allegedly murdered by Haiden Suarez-Noa.TRIBUTE PHOTO

A prosecutor who compared an accused murderer to an “animal” and mocked his defence strategy in her opening address has been blamed for tainting a jury in Hamilton, Ont., and forcing a judge to declare a mistrial even before the first witness was called.

Assistant Crown Attorney Kim Rogers went so far as to compare the murder case against Haiden Suarez-Noa to the 1984 movie Impulse, in which rural townsfolk behave in bizarrely erotic ways after toxic waste leaks into the water supply, indulging “their base or most feral instincts,” as she put it.

“Imagine a society in which anyone could act upon his first instincts,” Rogers told the jury after recommending the film. “That ladies and gentlemen, is what this trial is about: the difference between reasonable human beings and animals.”

The remarks, about the stabbing death of Suarez-Noa’s common-law partner, Tania Cowell, were so inflammatory the trial was effectively over by the first lunch break, and is now expected to resume with a new jury in November.

The Crown’s opening address can, by law, offer guidance for the trial ahead, but it is “not the appropriate forum for argument, invective, or opinion,” according to the newly published reasons of Judge Robert B. Reid, about last Wednesday’s mistrial.

It was not just the movie reference or the “animal” comment. The entire address was a legal mess, the judge found, full of “pre-emptive argument” and discussion of, for example, personality traits that could make someone to appear calm while concealing “deep uncontrolled rage.”

Reid said he had no choice but to end the trial — the remedy of last resort — because of the Crown’s “rhetorical over-zealousness, personal opinion, argument, negation of the accused’s right to silence and implied reversal of the onus of proof.”

“Although the reference was not direct, in my view there can be no doubt that counsel was suggesting to the jury that the accused had behaved like an animal rather than a human being in committing the acts which, as she advised the jury, had been admitted,” Reid wrote. “That characterization of the accused was both highly improper and was of such a nature that it could not be erased from the minds of the jurors even with a significant correcting instruction. The fairness of the trial process was irremediably compromised.”

Tania Cowell was 36 when she was stabbed to death in March, 2013, in her apartment in Stoney Creek, part of Hamilton, Ont. She was on maternity leave from a job as a personal support worker for disabled people, helping them live independently.

Her common-law partner, Suarez-Noa, then aged 35, turned himself in to police in Guelph, Ont., a few hours after the killing and has been in custody since. He also handed over their five-month-old son, Bailun, who was unharmed, and is now in the care of Cowell’s family.

All crimes require proof of both a guilty act and a guilty mind. Suarez-Noa admitted the act to police, but pleaded not guilty to second-degree murder. He was expected to argue the partial defence of provocation.

This controversial tactic, which can reduce apparent murder to manslaughter if it happens “in the heat of passion caused by sudden provocation,” is often pleaded and usually fails. A few months after the murder, for example, the Supreme Court of Canada made it even more difficult, saying it “cannot spring from bare, unsupported assertions by the accused.”

The prosecutor told the jury that, to support this strategy, Suarez-Noa would testify, and the jury should consider whether his version squares with the evidence. This, in effect, reversed the burden of proof that properly rests with the Crown.

“She has no place speaking for the defence,” said defence lawyer Charn Gill, who successfully argued Reid should declare the mistrial.

“It is highly inappropriate for Crown counsel to advise the jury of the defence position without a prior agreement, and particularly implying to the jury that the accused will testify,” Reid wrote. “Every accused obviously has an unequivocal right to maintain silence.”

“Although the Crown is entitled to act as a strong advocate within the adversarial process, it cannot adopt a purely adversarial role towards the defence,” Reid cautioned, and he cited a precedent from 1954, in which the Supreme Court said: “It cannot be over emphasized that the purpose of a criminal prosecution is not to obtain a conviction; it is to lay before the jury what the Crown considers to be credible evidence relevant to what is alleged to be a crime.”

Re: "Prosecutor who compared accused murderer to an ‘animal’ in opening address blamed for causing mistrial"

Re: “She has no place speaking for the defence,” said defence lawyer Charn Gill, who successfully argued Reid should declare the mistrial."

I'm quite surprised the defense didn't side with the impugned prosecutor and AGAINST the so-called "judge" on this one - after all, if the judge was right, then it was her case to lose for the prosecution and for the defense, not up to the judge alone!

What overbearing paternalism!

This "judge" presumes the jury's feelings are too delicate to withstand the invective rhetoric of a prosecutor in a murder trial!

Well, buddy, THE DEFENSE HAD CHOSEN A TRIAL BY JURY, NOT BY JUDGE ALONE!!!

True "animals" may or may not turn on and eat members of their own species - many do, and in contrast, humans are actually the most co-operative species of animals on the planet. But then there's "liberals" - like this case's "judge" - who, being slanderous criminal masochists, can be counted on to pretend to control their fears BY causing those very same, worst-case scenario problems (like, in attacking innocent other people, like this prosecutor, first) which cause the pains they fear the most!

Cannibals, all of them!

The prosecutor may or may not be dumb, but this "judge" is a criminal! He, not she, is the one who had really made a "pre-emptive," subjective ruling, not in any way based in Law, about the prosecutors' chosen methods - thus ruling against the prosecution before the trial had even began.

He pretends it's against the Law for prosecutors in MURDER cases, to: "zealously use rhetoric and personal opinion" and (*gasp!*) "argumentation," and "implied reversal of the onus of proof!"

Well, no shiite, Sherlock - before any given trial is concluded and the verdict is in, EVERYTHING stated by both the prosecution AND defense is mere legal "opinion, rhetoric, and argumentation!"

And it's the JOB of any and all prosecutors to present an implied reversal of the onus of proof - to act precisely as if the defendant was guilty until never proven innocent - and I think that especially applied to this case, where by all reports the accused had already admitted to the police and court his physical guilt in the act of killing his wife!

That he did it, wasn't in any way under contention in this case, so for the judge to pansy-out and pretend it was, is clear proof of a total lack of judgment on HIS part, not hers!

And he's also blaming her for using a "zealously rhetorical argument which was of such a nature that it could not be erased from the minds of the jurors" - which is ONLY DOING HER JOB!

In fact, to use his own words about her (obviously a case of 'projection') against him, the judge was the one whose actions and words here were being "highly improper."

It has been suggested that this is a case of a recent judicial appointment from a non-criminal practice in a small town firm.

I personally think THE JUDGE IS A LIBERAL RACIST and was trying to defend the "hurt feelings" of his swarthy ward as if Mr. Suarez-Noa was his own defense client.

Liberals are racists: they always assume that ONLY White Western people (including, of course, the Jews in Israel,) are INTELLIGENT enough to be guilty of being truly evil, while all their pet "People Of Colour" (including the "swarthy palestinians") being mentally inferior and all, just can't help being enslaved by their instincts and emotions into acting as violent animals when frustrated, the poor oppressed little dears, so the liberals will always indulge their crimes, much as one ignores the new puppy as it pees on the rugs.

So here's their interminably ongoing "narrative" (story):

"SO JUST STOP PICKING ON ALL THE THE POOR HELPLESS MENTALLY INFERIOR SWARTHY ANIMAL VICTIMS, YOU EVIL MENTALLY SUPERIOR WHITE BULLIES! YOU KNOW THEY’RE AT THE MERCY OF THEIR ANIMAL INSTINCTS SUCH THAT THEY JUST CAN’T HELP BEING VIOLENT WHEN CONFUSED, SO STOP BAITING AND CONFUSING THEM, YOU HATERS!"

But it may have backfired on him, gaining them the opposite of the intended result.

While it was her case to lose - if the prosecutor, in characterizing his actions as animalistic, had thereby herself managed to negate, in the juror's minds, the mens-rea or guilty-mind / intent requirement for criminality by doing so, that should have been left up to her.

As it is, the fussy actions of this pretentious and over-stepping "judge" have doomed the defendant to a new trial, one in which his guilty intent may be proven to new jury.

Who knows what she may have been trying to prove?

It may be that her opening shockers were strategically designed to be reversed later on, to prove the accused had no such defense - but now we'll never know, thanks to this "judge!"

She should request a review of his actions, which amount to libel and slander, and being put before the public, have brought not only her nascent career, but also the entirely of the justice system itself into disrepute.

This "judge" needs to be sharply reminded that there is no LAW against "hurt feelings," especially between a determined prosecutor and an evasive accused in a MURDER CASE!

ISLAM DEFINES MURDEROUS INTOLERANCE

ISLAM IS THE ONE AND ONLY HUMAN CREED IN ALL THE WORLD WHICH OFFICIALLY STATES THAT ITS MEMBERS MUST MURDER ALL THE NON-MEMBERS OF THEIR GANG, SIMPLY FOR NOT BELIEVING THE SAME WAY THEY DO - FOR THE “CRIME” OF SIMPLY NOT BEING MUSLIMS.

No holy mobster “muslim” has to become “radicalized” in order to turn to violence against any random non-muslim.

The existence of islam incites muslims to violence.

WHAT "PROVOKES" MUSLIMS, IS SIMPLY: DISBELIEVING IN ISLAM!

That's the Qur'an's whole basis:
"Those Who Do Not Believe Must Be Murdered For Their Disbelief."

Simple disbelief in islam is, to them, "slandering" Muhammad, because the disbelievers ("infidels") thereby imply they DO believe Moe to have been mistaken, insane, an evil liar, or all of the above!

And their use of the word "infidel" ("unfaithful") itself is a simply victim-blaming slander, because it presumes all non-believers had actually known all along that Muhammad was right, but had actually, "hypocritically," chosen to ignore him!

So all the non-muslims in the world have been sentenced to "Death By Muslim" for their "crime" of not being muslims them selves!

"If you don’t think and act the same as us, we will murder you!”

THAT ALONE IS THE MESSAGE OF ISLAM.

And it implicitly shows what “thinking and acting the same as us” is, to all muslims:

"To be a criminal who pretends he has the holy right to murder any and all other people for not being murderous criminals like us!”

They follow Muhammad’s "Perfect Example."

.......

“The apostle [Muhammad] said, ‘Kill any Jew that falls into your power.’ Thereupon Muhayyisa bin Masud leapt upon Ibn Sunayna, a Jewish merchant with whom they had social and business relations, and killed him. Huwayyisa was not a Muslim at the time though he was the elder brother. When Muhayyisa killed [the Jewish merchant],Huwayyisa began to beat [his brother Muhayyisa], saying, ‘You enemy of God, did you kill him when much of the fat on your belly comes from his wealth?’ Muhayyisa answered, ‘Had the one who ordered me to kill him ordered me to kill you I would have cut your head off.’…[Huwayyisa] replied, ‘By God, if Muhammad had ordered you to kill me would you have killed me?’ [Muhayyisa]said, ‘Yes, by God, had he ordered me to cut off your head I would have done so.’ [Huwayyisa] exclaimed, “By God, a religion which can bring you to this is marvellous!’ and [Huwayyisa] became a Muslim.”

Yes, he attacked a Jew who had done them no wrong, and had in fact only helped them by putting food on their table, for being a Jew. Why is being born a Jew worthy of being murdered for it?

Simply because Jews aren't muslims.

Allah's law:

9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

The practical application of Allah's law: [Reliance Of The Traveller]

O9.R The caliph (025) makes war upon Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians (N: provided he has first invited them to enter Islam in faith and practice, and if they will not, then invited them to enter the social order of Islam by paying the non Muslim poll tax (jizya, def: O1 L4) - which is the significance of their paying it, not the money itself - while remaining in their ancestral religions)

(O: and the war continues) until they become Muslim or else pay the non-Muslim poll tax (O: in accordance with the word of Allah Most High,

"Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day and who forbid not what Allah and His messenger have forbidden - who do not practice the religion of truth, being of those who have been given the Book - until they pay the poll tax out of hand and are humbled" (Koran 9:29),

To learn the reality of Jizya, turn to Hedaya, volume 2, Book 9, pages 212-218. You can see the most
important parts in this pdf file, with links to source:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/213423566/Hedaya-2-141-Annotated

Jizya is a payment "in lieu of destruction", and "a species of punishment for infidelity".

That is the law of the Hanafi school of law which ran in India and formed the basis of the Ottoman
Empire's Legal Code.

The infamous fatwa of Imam Al-Shafi'i is not clearly stated in Reliance O9.1.

Find it in "The Book Of Jihad" pg. 18 and get a clue:

“The minimum participation in Jihad is once a year, and more is always better. It is not allowed to have a year pass you by without any fighting except out of necessity like the weakness of Muslims and the great numbers of the enemy, or fear of extermination if you attack them first, or lack of provisions, or similar excuses. Otherwise, if there is no necessity it is not allowed to delay attacking the non-believers for more than a year.”

Imam Shafi’i states that.

It is perfectly halal sunnah sharia.

...

What passages of the Qur'an sanctify offensive warfare against infidels?

2:216. Jihad holy fighting in Allah's cause is ordained for you Muslims Although you dislike it, and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you.
Allah knows but you do not know.

9:5. Then when the Sacred months (the Ist, 7th, 11th, and 12th months of the Islamic calendar) have passed, then kill the Mushrikun (see V.2/105) wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and prepare for them each and every ambush. But if they repent and perform Al-Salat /Iqamat Al-salat, and give Zakat, then leave their way free. Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

8:39. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism) i.e. worshipping others besides Allah and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah alone [in the whole of the world]. But if they cease (worshipping others besides) Allah, then certainly, Allah is All-Seer of what they do.

9:29. Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allah, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission.

9:123. O you who believe! Fight those of the disbelievers who are close to you, and let them find harshness in you, and know that Allah is with those who are the Al-Muttaqun (the pious) see V.2:2.

This is all confirmed in the hadiths:

From here:

http://www.quranexplorer.com/Hadith/English/Hadith/bukhari/001.008.387.html

Bukhari Book 1 Volume 8 Hadith 387

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

Allah's Apostle said, "I have been ordered to fight the people until they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah."

Narrated Maimun ibn Siyah that he asked Anas bin Malik,
"O Abu Hamza! What makes the life and property of a person sacred?" He replied,

"Whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah', faces our Qibla during the prayers, prays like us and eats our slaughtered animal, then he is a Muslim, and has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have."

IN OTHER WORDS, THE LIVES AND PROPERTY OF ALL NON-MUSLIMS ARE NOT SACRED TO MUSLIMS, UNLESS AND UNTIL THEY BECOME MUSLIMS, TOO.

BECAUSE THESE PASSAGES SAY "UNTIL," THEY ARE OPEN-ENDED AND REMAIN VALID FOR ALL TIME AND IN ALL PLACES.

More Dangerous Than Islam!

What could be "More Dangerous Than Islam!" you ask?

The no-longer-so-nascent TPP "trade agreement" of course!

From here:

http://www.wnd.com/2015/06/huckabee-uncorks-on-obamatrade/#comment-2070634524

Their oil-bankster sales-master owners paid them to pass it, not read it.

This permanently shifts power from ALL governments to unelected corporations.

It bypasses all sovereign governments in favor of CORPORATE interests.

There will be no more "politics" allowed after this gets passed.
It's a "Corporate Constitution" listing their rights over "our" governments.

That's why it's 'secret,' - because them selling off the country is TREASON.

"Our Leaders" know what's best for us better than we do. That's why we defer our responsibilities (and rights) to think for our selves by paying them to do our thinking "for us." By which act we also told them we don't consider our selves to be worth thinking about at all anyway! So we gave them the order to screw us! We don't vote to elect people to represent us, but to replace us.

They know what they're doing - this gives them rights to their salaries authority and perks without any responsibility at all to we the people.

Having rights without responsibility is that "Progress!" which all criminals dream of: a right to our stuff without having to earn or otherwise pay for it!

Re: "Why is the Obamatrade deal being kept secret?"!

How about BECAUSE IT'S TREASON!?

It's a "Corporate Constitution!" It lists their rights over all of "our" governments.

Globalization is obviously treason to all sovereign national governments. Period.
So: anyone who signs this is a traitor. Period.

I actually know what's in it (or what used to be in it). I have a rough-draft copy from a few years ago, when it was called "CETA." Here it is:

Just check out the Union Farmer Quarterly Spring 2011/ Vol. 17 Issue 1 edition, pages 13 & 14 (Article by NFU president Terry Boehm). And/or you can see contact them or see them at nfu@nfu.ca and www.nfu.ca

Here's what it says (or used to say, anyway):

................

CETA must be stopped (because it's treason, plain & simple!)

- by National Farmer's Union President Terry Boehm

The NFU received a more recent draft of the CETA after the October round of negotiations. On reading this document it is clear that our earlier analysis of the agreement was accurate and if anything, we see European positions hardening as the negotiation process continues.

The only bright spot in this process is that the specific reference to UPOV'91 has been dropped in this later version. I believe that the NFU ringing the alarm on this last summer played a huge part in getting this removed. However, the agreement still references working to advance UPOV, so we remain vigilant.

This agreement, while characterized as a trade agreement, is really about limiting the role of government to act in the public interest. It essentially penalizes governments if they do anything that could impact the profits of the largest corporations in the world.

What we have is a scenario where monopoly rents can be extracted indefinitely, and where governments are to create the conditions that perpetuate this by enforcing legislation like patents and other intellectual property rights as an example.

The courts are to become a vehicle of the corporations to threaten people with the precautionary seizure of their property if they are alleged to have infringed on an intellectual property right.

THAT MEANS GOVERNMENTS ARE TO JUDGE CITIZENS GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT WHEN CORPORATE GANGS SAY TO!

Intellectual property rights are to supersede all other property rights.

i.e: CORPORATE GANGS WILL BE ABLE TO HOARD ALL BENEFICIAL NEEDED KNOWLEDGE - THUS ENABLING ADDICTIONS INDUSTRIES!

Governments are also to compensate corporations for lost profits in times of civil strife (strikes), war etc.

WHICH MEANS IF AN ENEMY ATTACKS, OR ANYONE STRIKES, OUR TAXES (AGAIN) BAIL OUT CORPORATE GANGS - BY LAW!

This is an additional clause to the equivalent provisions of the NAFTA Chapter 11 investor protection measures that this agreement is to include as well.

Governments can subsidize in very specific instances and sectors, for example the insurance sector. This will of course become increasingly important as natural disasters are to become more frequent with global warming. Coal is also to be freely subsidized.

I.E: WE WILL *HAVE TO* PAY OUR TAXES DIRECTLY TO CORPORATE GANGS TO SUBSIDIZE ALL THEIR LOSSES! IT MEANS THAT "LEGALLY" FROM NOW ON, WE WILL BE PAYING FOR-PROFIT TAXES!!!

What is particularly vexing is that the Europeans, or more accurately the European Commission is negotiating with these positions while the Canadians are seeking miniscule adjustments in Europe to increase acceptable GM contamination levels from 0.01 % to 0.1 % and to allow this for unapproved events as well.

Canadians are also hoping to gain access for hormone-treated beef products. European press and politicians including many members of the International Trade Committee of the European Parliament unequivocally state that this is not going to happen and that Canadian agricultural production will not gain significant inroads in Europe if we continue to insist on production methods that are unacceptable in Europe. Indeed Appendix 1 b of the draft exempts all European GM regulations from the provisions of this agreement.

What we must keep in mind is that the Europeans are able to generate surpluses in most agricultural commodities anyway and that they have east and central European neighbours right next door who can supply agricultural goods with much lower transport costs than we have.

The tariff levels between Europe and Canada are very low already - averaging about 4% - so this agreement can hardly open trade any further.

Unfortunately, the Government of Canada is selling this to Canadians as a free trade agreement (and our press is accepting this as well) when it really is a mechanism to redesign the function of government.

i.e: TO FORCE US TO PAY FOR-PROFIT TAXES TO ALL CORPORATE GANGS; IT IS TREASON BECAUSE IT ENABLES THESE GANGS TO NOT ONLY RIVAL OUR GOVERNMENT IN ULTIMATE CONTROL OF OUR COLLECTIVE NATURAL RESOURCES, BUT ALSO IN CONTROL OF OUR LEGAL SYSTEM, OUR OWN INDIVIDUAL PROPERTY OWNERSHIP RIGHTS, SECURITY OF OUR PERSONS, AND IT ALSO ENABLES THEM TO DIRECTLY SUPPLANT OUR OWN ELECTED GOVERNMENTS ENTIRELY! GLOBAL CORPORATIONS - NOT NATIONAL DEMOCRACIES - WILL RULE "BY FORCE OF LAW"!

This can be the only rationale on behalf of the Canadian government as the actual economic benefits are so minimal when you carefully read the text.

The European Commission has the same neoliberal ambitions as the Canadian government but they are seeking to essentially re-colonize Canada for its natural resources and to open up government procurement at all levels to European companies.

WE WILL BE FORCED TO SELL OUR NATURAL RESOURCES AT ANY AND ALL GIVEN TIMES TO THE SITUATIONALLY HIGHEST BIDDERS (CHINA)!

WE WILL ALSO HAVE TO BUY THEIR GOODS AND SERVICES ON THEIR DEMAND!

THIS FALSE AGREEMENT SELLS OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY OUT TO ANY AND ALL GLOBAL CORPORATIONS - AND ALL ON ONLY THEIR TERMS - FOREVER!

THIS IS OBVIOUS TREASON TO ALL CANADIANS!

It states that governments cannot favour local goods and service providers for any covered procurement subject to thresholds of the Government procurement agreement at the WTO. These are set at $135,000 for goods and services at the federal level and $355,000 at the provincial level and at $5,000,000 for construction projects.

The information I received from Canadian provincial negotiators in Brussels in January is that the three far western provinces are willing to reduce this to $25,000.

What this procurement covers under CETA is government activities but also municipal, hospital, school and university procurement.

One of the realities of this shift for agriculture is that it would be very difficult for any of these entities to establish local food systems.

IN OTHER WORDS, OUR OWN GOVERNMENTS ARE FORFEITING THEIR RIGHTS TO ACT ON BEHALF OF US CITIZENS!

THEY ARE AGREEING THAT THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO BUY OUR FARMERS' FOOD AT GOOD PRICES (FOR THE FARMERS) ON BEHALF OF CANADIAN CITIZENS IF THERE'S EVER A FOOD SHORTAGE (LIKE IF AND WHEN OIL PRICES GO SKY-HIGH BECAUSE OF PERPETUALLY WARRING MUSLIMS)!

The further danger in all of this is that governments trying to nurture local or domestic businesses would be disallowed from doing so.

Actions to favour disadvantaged areas or populations for, economic development would be subjected to the investor protection provisions if they impacted corporate profits negatively.

Environmental regulation would again be subject to these provisions.

Returning to the intellectual property rights (IPR) issues, one of the areas that will affect all Canadians is the effect these provisions will have on the cost of health care.

LET'S NOT FORGET MONSANTO: THIS WOULD ENSHRINE IN "LAW" THEIR "RIGHTS" NOT ONLY TO SUE, BUT TO STEAL ENTIRE FARMS AND EQUIPMENT IF THEY ONLY "SUSPECTED" A FARMER MAY HAVE (ACCIDENTALLY HAD SOME CONTAMINATION OF THEIR WIND-BLOWN) SEEDS ON HIS PROPERTY!

ALL FARMERS WILL BE PRE-JUDGED AS GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT!

The Europeans are calling for extending drug patents by the length of time it takes a regulatory body to test and approve a product. This will both increase costs but will also pressure our regulators to make hasty approvals. If a minor use is found for the drug during the term of the patent it is extended again. In addition, the data supplied by the pharmaceutical or chemical company to the regulator is to remain exclusive to the companies for 10 to 13 years. It cannot be used for other studies or a base for creating alternatives.

THIS "AGREEMENT" TAKES AWAY EVEN OUR RIGHTS TO THINK AT ALL!

Pharmaceuticals comprise one of the largest expenses of our healthcare system and this will add to their cost and transfer even more of our healthcare tax dollars to big pharmaceutical companies.

The precautionary seizure provisions remain in the new draft and extend to third parties accused of assisting in an ALLEGED infringement.

THIS MEANS "OUR" GOVERNMENT INTENDS TO ATTACK US ALL FIRST "JUST TO BE SAFE, TO DEFEND THE CORPORATIONS" AND SO IT ALSO ENSHRINES IN LAW THAT FROM NOW ON WE ARE ALL TO BE JUDGED "GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT!"

Interlocutory injunctions also are to be used to enforce patents or other IPR's. The precautionary seizure of movable and immovable property and the freezing of bank accounts and communication of financial data of alleged infringers by the courts on behalf of corporations is an affront to democracy.

Farmers could be confronted with losing their farms, equipment, crops, and cash for being accused of having a patented gene in their crop.

In addition, a third party deemed to have assisted in the so-called infringement could be subjected to the same seizure provisions. This would include seed cleaners, for example.

The crops could be ordered to be destroyed or you could have an injunction placed on you to prevent you from planting your own seed.

THIS IS DESIGNED BY CORPORATIONS TO MAKE OUR GOVERNMENT FORCE US TO BUY THEIR PRODUCTS - OR ELSE!

IT'S A FORM OF ENFORCED FOR-PROFIT COMMUNISM!

IT'S TOTALITARIAN CONFORMITY AND IS COMPLETELY UNDEMOCRATIC AS WELL AS ILLEGAL - FOR NOW, ANYWAY!

It is clear that the culture of fear that flows out of these measures would cause most farmers to comply to corporate demands and pay the price for seeds or whatever input the corporations controlled, and produce in their deemed manner.

Farming as an autonomous occupation would evaporate. Those who farm accepting low returns because "I am my own boss" will be sorely surprised if this agreement comes to fruition.

THIS FORCES THE SALES BY CORPORATIONS TO FARMERS "BY LAW"! AND AT WHATEVER PRICES THE CORPORATIONS CHOOSE TO SET!

IT "LEGALLY" MAKES ALL FARMERS INTO SLAVES!

Just as important, if not more, is what this agreement will do to our ability to govern autonomously. As you read the 361 pages of the CETA text, it is apparent that all of the advances made by our democracies are threatened and perverted by the real power behind this agreement and our governments are duplicitous pawns in a game of power not just over our food (via seeds) but over people as part of functioning democracies.

We have until the end of 2011 at best to stop this and we need to make this an issue wherever we can. The NFU has been protesting and lobbying both in Canada and in Europe but the level of knowledge is low among ordinary citizens and our government representatives.

We all need to challenge our politicians to look at this carefully and not just have them cheerlead for another trade agreement.

This is certainly not just another trade agreement but goes after the heart of our societies.

PROOF Truman was Right to NUKE JAPAN

The source for this terrifying true history of what we'd have been up against if the atomic bombs had not been dropped on Japan come to us by way of my next-door neighbor, Charles Funk, a former CIA op who worked in Laos during the Vietnam War. Anytime anybody tells you Truman was a war criminal for nuking Japan needs to read this summary of Top Secret documents only recently retrieved from the national archives. Thank God we didn't have to invade the Home Islands.

(HT to Herbork).

Wow.

A-Bombing Japan cost them over 100K lives and some major destruction of two cities. If the invasion had happened, we would have lost nearly 1M lives--killed and wounded along with million Japanese lives.

This is some WWII history of the war in the Pacific that has been debated for years but the true facts summarized here have been declassified and read like a war novel. Long read but all true and very historical. Thank God for President Truman's decision.

-----------------

Declassified plans to invade Japan.

This is absolutely amazing. Any history buff MUST read this. It is most informative, enlightening, and very interesting as well.

For instance, I had no idea of the number of aircraft the Japanese had at their disposal at the end of the war.

I had believed they used all they had in the battle for Okinawa .

They still had over 12,000 airplanes available!

Here is some interesting history of why the A Bombs were dropped on Japan . Although the author speaks in the first person at the end, his identity is provided.

Declassified plans for WW II invasion of Japan

Deep in the recesses of the National Archives in Washington , D.C. , hidden for nearly four decades lie thousands of pages of yellowing and dusty documents stamped "Top Secret". These documents, now declassified, are the plans for Operation Downfall, the invasion of Japan during World War II.

Only a few Americans in 1945 were aware of the elaborate plans that had been prepared for the Allied Invasion of the Japanese home islands. Even fewer today are aware of the defenses the Japanese had prepared to counter the invasion had it been launched. Operation Downfall was finalized during the spring and summer of 1945. It called for two massive military undertakings to be carried out in succession and aimed at the heart of the Japanese Empire.

In the first invasion - code named "Operation Olympic"- American combat troops would land on Japan by amphibious assault during the early morning hours of November 1, 1945 - 69 years ago. Fourteen combat divisions of soldiers and Marines would land on heavily fortified and defended Kyushu , the southernmost of the Japanese home islands, after an unprecedented naval and aerial bombardment.

The second invasion on March 1, 1946 - code named "Operation Coronet"- would send at least 22 divisions against 1 million Japanese defenders on the main island of Honshu and the Tokyo Plain. Its goal: the unconditional surrender of Japan .

With the exception of a part of the British Pacific Fleet, Operation Downfall was to be a strictly American operation. It called for using the entire Marine Corps, the entire Pacific Navy, elements of the 7th Army Air Force, the 8 Air Force (recently redeployed from Europe), 10th Air Force and the American Far Eastern Air Force. More than 1.5 million combat soldiers, with 3 million more in support or more than 40% of all servicemen still in uniform in 1945 - would be directly involved in the two amphibious assaults. Casualties were expected to be extremely heavy.

Admiral William Leahy estimated that there would be more than 250,000 Americans killed or wounded on Kyushu alone. Gene ral Charles Willoughby, chief of intelligence for Gene ral Douglas MacArthur, the Supreme Commander of the Southwest Pacific, estimated American casualties would be one million men by the fall of 1946. Willoughby 's own intelligence staff considered this to be a conservative estimate.

During the summer of 1945, America had little time to prepare for such an endeavor, but top military leaders were in almost unanimous agreement that an invasion was necessary.

While naval blockade and strategic bombing of Japan was considered to be useful, General MacArthur, for instance, did not believe a blockade would bring about an unconditional surrender. The advocates for invasion agreed that while a naval blockade chokes, it does not kill; and though strategic bombing might destroy cities, it leaves whole armies intact.

So on May 25, 1945, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, after extensive deliberation, issued to General MacArthur, Admiral Chester Nimitz, and Army Air Force Gene Henry Arnold, the top secret directive to proceed with the invasion of Kyushu . The target date was after the typhoon season.

President Truman approved the plans for the invasions July 24. Two days later, the United Nations issued the Potsdam Proclamation, which called upon Japan to surrender unconditionally or face total destruction. Three days later, the Japanese governmental news agency broadcast to the world that Japan would ignore the proclamation and would refuse to surrender. During this same period it was learned -- via monitoring Japanese radio broadcasts -- that Japan had closed all schools and mobilized its school children, was arming its civilian population and was fortifying caves and building underground defenses.

Operation Olympic called for a four pronged assault on Kyushu . Its purpose was to seize and control the southern one-third of that island and establish naval and air bases, to tighten the naval blockade of the home islands, to destroy units of the main Japanese army and to support the later invasion of the Tokyo Plain.

The preliminary invasion would begin October 27 when the 40th Infantry Division would land on a series of small islands west and southwest of Kyushu . At the same time, the 158th Regimental Combat Team would invade and occupy a small island 28 miles south of Kyushu . On these islands, seaplane bases would be established and radar would be set up to provide advance air warning for the invasion fleet, to serve as fighter direction centers for the carrier-based aircraft and to provide an emergency anchorage for the invasion fleet, should things not go well on the day of the invasion.

As the invasion grew imminent, the massive firepower of the Navy - the Third and Fifth Fleets -- would approach Japan . The Third Fleet, under Admiral William "Bull" Halsey, with its big guns and naval aircraft, would provide strategic support for the operation against Honshu and Hokkaido . Halsey's fleet would be composed of battleships, heavy cruisers, destroyers, dozens of support ships and three fast carrier task groups. From these carriers, hundreds of Navy fighters, dive bombers and torpedo planes would hit targets all over the island of Honshu The 3,000 ship Fifth Fleet, under Admiral Raymond Spruance, would carry the invasion troops.

Several days before the invasion, the battleships, heavy cruisers and destroyers would pour thousands of tons of high explosives into the target areas. They would not cease the bombardment until after the land forces had been launched. During the early morning hours of November 1, the invasion would begin. Thousands of soldiers and Marines would pour ashore on beaches all along the eastern, southeastern, southern and western coasts of Kyushu . Waves of Helldivers, Dauntless dive bombers, Avengers, Corsairs, and Hellcats from 66 aircraft carriers would bomb, rocket and strafe enemy defenses, gun emplacements and troop concentrations along the beaches.

The Eastern Assault Force consisting of the 25th, 33rd, and 41st Infantry Divisions, would land near Miyaski, at beaches called Austin, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, and Ford, and move inland to attempt to capture the city and its nearby airfield. The Southern Assault Force, consisting of the 1st Cavalry Division, the 43rd Division and Americal Division would land inside Ariake Bay at beaches labeled DeSoto, Dusenberg, Essex, Ford, and Franklin and attempt to capture Shibushi and the city of Kanoya and its airfield.

On the western shore of Kyushu, at beaches Pontiac, Reo, Rolls Royce, Saxon, Star, Studebaker, Stutz, Winston and Zephyr, the V Amphibious Corps would land the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th Marine Divisions, sending half of its force inland to Sendai and the other half to the port city of Kagoshima.

On November 4, the Reserve Force, consisting of the 81st and 98th Infantry Divisions and the 11th Airborne Division, after feigning an attack on the island of Shikoku, would be landed -- if not needed elsewhere - near Kaimondake, near the southernmost tip of Kagoshima Bay, at the beaches designated Locomobile, Lincoln, LaSalle, Hupmobile, Moon, Mercedes, Maxwell, Overland, Oldsmobile, Packard, and Plymouth.

Olympic was not just a plan for invasion, but for conquest and occupation as well. It was expected to take four months to achieve its objective, with the three fresh American divisions per month to be landed in support of that operation if needed. If all went well with Olympic, Coronet would be launched March 1, 1946. Coronet would be twice the size of Olympic, with as many as 28 divisions landing on Honshu .

All along the coast east of Tokyo , the American 1st Army would land the 5th, 7th 6th Marine Divisions. At Sagami Bay , just south of Tokyo , the entire 8th and 10th Armies would strike north and east to clear the long western shore of Tokyo Bay and attempt to go as far as Yokohama . The assault troops landing south of Tokyo would be the 4th, 6th, 8th, 24th, 31st, 37th, 38th, and 8th Infantry Divisions, along with the 13th and 20th Armored Divisions.

Following the initial assault, eight more divisions - the 2nd, 28th, 35th, 91st, 95th, 97th, and 104th Infantry Divisions and the 11th Airborne Division -- would be landed. If additional troops were needed, as expected, other divisions redeployed from Europe and undergoing training in the United States would be shipped to Japan in what was hoped to be the final push.

Captured Japanese documents and post war interrogations of Japanese military leaders disclose that information concerning the number of Japanese planes available for the defense of the home islands was dangerously in error.

During the sea battle at Okinawa alone, Japanese Kamikaze aircraft sank 32 Allied ships and damaged more than 400 others. But during the summer of 1945 American top brass concluded that the Japanese had spent their air force since American bombers and fighters daily flew unmolested over Japan .

What the military leaders did not know was that by the end of July the Japanese had been saving all aircraft, fuel, and pilots in reserve, and had been feverishly building new planes for the decisive battle for their homeland.

As part of Ketsu-Go, the name for the plan to defend Japan -- the Japanese were building 20 suicide takeoff strips in southern Kyushu with underground hangars. They also had 35 camouflaged airfields and nine seaplane bases.

On the night before the expected invasion, 50 Japanese seaplane bombers, 100 former carrier aircraft and 50 land based army planes were to be launched in a suicide attack on the fleet.

The Japanese had 58 more airfields in Korea , western Honshu and Shikoku , which also were to be used for massive suicide attacks.

Allied intelligence had established that the Japanese had no more than 2,500 aircraft of which they guessed 300 would be deployed in suicide attacks. In August 1945, however, unknown to Allied intelligence, the Japanese still had 5,651 army and 7,074 navy aircraft, for a total of 12,725 planes of all types. Every village had some type of aircraft manufacturing activity hidden in mines, railway tunnels, under viaducts and in basements of department stores, work was being done to construct new planes.

Additionally, the Japanese were building newer and more effective models of the Okka, a rocket-propelled bomb much like the German V-1, but flown by a suicide pilot. When the invasion became imminent, Ketsu-Go called for a fourfold aerial plan of attack to destroy up to 800 Allied ships.

While Allied ships were approaching Japan , but still in the open seas, an initial force of 2,000 army and navy fighters were to fight to the death to control the skies over Kyushu . A second force of 330 navy combat pilots was to attack the main body of the task force to keep it from using its fire support and air cover to protect the troop carrying transports. While these two forces were engaged, a third force of 825 suicide planes was to hit the American transports. As the invasion convoys approached their anchorages, another 2,000 suicide planes were to be launched in waves of 200 to 300, to be used in hour by hour attacks.

By mid-morning of the first day of the invasion, most of the American land-based aircraft would be forced to return to their bases, leaving the defense against the suicide planes to the carrier pilots and the shipboard gunners. Carrier pilots crippled by fatigue would have to land time and time again to re-arm and refuel. Guns would malfunction from the heat of continuous firing and ammunition would become scarce. Gun crews would be exhausted by nightfall, but still the waves of kamikaze would continue. With the fleet hovering off the beaches, all remaining Japanese aircraft would be committed to nonstop suicide attacks, which the Japanese hoped could be sustained for 10 days. The Japanese planned to coordinate their air strikes with attacks from the 40 remaining submarines from the Imperial Navy - some armed with Long Lance torpedoes with a range of 20 miles -- when the invasion fleet was 180 miles off Kyushu .

The Imperial Navy had 23 destroyers and two cruisers which were operational. These ships were to be used to counterattack the American invasion. A number of the destroyers were to be beached at the last minute to be used as anti-invasion gun platforms. Once offshore, the invasion fleet would be forced to defend not only against the attacks from the air, but would also be confronted with suicide attacks from sea. Japan had established a suicide naval attack unit of midget submarines, human torpedoes and exploding motorboats. The goal of the Japanese was to shatter the invasion before the landing. The Japanese were convinced the Americans would back off or become so demoralized that they would then accept a less-than-unconditional surrender and a more honorable and face-saving end for the Japanese. But as horrible as the battle of Japan would be off the beaches, it would be on Japanese soil that the American forces would face the most rugged and fanatical defense encountered during the war.

Throughout the island-hopping Pacific campaign, Allied troops had always outnumbered the Japanese by 2 to 1 and sometimes 3 to 1. In Japan it would be different. By virtue of a combination of cunning, guesswork, and brilliant military reasoning, a number of Japan 's top military leaders were able to deduce, not only when, but where, the United States would land its first invasion forces.

Facing the 14 American divisions landing at Kyushu would be 14 Japanese divisions, 7 independent mixed brigades, 3 tank brigades and thousands of naval troops. On Kyushu the odds would be 3 to 2 in favor of the Japanese, with 790,000 enemy defenders against 550,000 Americans. This time the bulk of the Japanese defenders would not be the poorly trained and ill-equipped labor battalions that the Americans had faced in the earlier campaigns.

The Japanese defenders would be the hard core of the home army. These troops were well-fed and well equipped. They were familiar with the terrain,had stockpiles of arms and ammunition, and had developed an effective system of transportation and supply almost invisible from the air. Many of these Japanese troops were the elite of the army, and they were swollen with a fanatical fighting spirit.

Japan's network of beach defenses consisted of offshore mines, thousands of suicide scuba divers attacking landing craft, and mines planted on the beaches. Coming ashore, the American Eastern amphibious assault forces at Miyazaki would face three Japanese divisions, and two others poised for counterattack. Awaiting the Southeastern attack force at Ariake Bay was an entire division and at least one mixed infantry brigade.

On the western shores of Kyushu , the Marines would face the most brutal opposition. Along the invasion beaches would be the three Japanese divisions, a tank brigade, a mixed infantry brigade and an artillery command Components of two divisions would also be poised to launch counterattacks. If not needed to reinforce the primary landing beaches, the American Reserve Force would be landed at the base of Kagoshima Bay November 4, where they would be confronted by two mixed infantry brigades, parts of two infantry divisions and thousands of naval troops.

All along the invasion beaches, American troops would face coastal batteries, anti-landing obstacles and a network of heavily fortified pillboxes, bunkers, and underground fortresses. As Americans waded ashore, they would face intense artillery and mortar fire as they worked their way through concrete rubble and barbed-wire entanglements arranged to funnel them into the muzzles of these Japanese guns. On the beaches and beyond would be hundreds of Japanese machine gun positions, beach mines, booby traps, trip-wire mines and sniper units. Suicide units concealed in "spider holes" would engage the troops as they passed nearby. In the heat of battle, Japanese infiltration units would be sent to reap havoc in the American lines by cutting phone and communication lines. Some of the Japanese troops would be in American uniform; English-speaking Japanese officers were assigned to break in on American radio traffic to call off artillery fire, to order retreats and to further confuse troops. Other infiltration with demolition charges strapped on their chests or backs would attempt to blow up American tanks, artillery pieces and ammunition stores as they were unloaded ashore.

Beyond the beaches were large artillery pieces situated to bring down a curtain of fire on the beach. Some of these large guns were mounted on railroad tracks running in and out of caves protected by concrete and steel. The battle for Japan would be won by what Simon Bolivar Buckner, a lieutenant general in the Confederate army during the Civil War, had called Prairie Dog Warfare." This type of fighting was almost unknown to the ground troops in Europe and the Mediterranean . It was peculiar only to the soldiers and Marines who fought the Japanese on islands all over the Pacific -- at Tarawa, Saipan, Iwo Jima and Okinawa . Prairie Dog Warfare was a battle for yards, feet and sometimes inches. It was brutal, deadly and dangerous form of combat aimed at an underground, heavily fortified, non-retreating enemy. In the mountains behind the Japanese beaches were underground networks of caves, bunkers, command posts and hospitals connected by miles of tunnels with dozens of entrances and exits. Some of these complexes could hold up to 1,000 troops.

In addition to the use of poison gas and bacteriological warfare (which the Japanese had experimented with), Japan mobilized its citizenry. Had Olympic come about, the Japanese civilian population, inflamed by a national slogan - "One Hundred Million Will Die for the Emperor and Nation" - were prepared to fight to the death Twenty Eight Million Japanese had become a part of the National Volunteer Combat Force. They were armed with ancient rifles, lunge mines, satchel charges, Molotov cocktails and one-shot black powder mortars. Others were armed with swords, long bows, axes and bamboo spears. The civilian units were to be used in nighttime attacks, hit and run maneuvers, delaying actions and massive suicide charges at the weaker American positions.

At the early stage of the invasion, 1,000 Japanese and American soldiers would be dying every hour.

The invasion of Japan never became a reality because on August 6, 1945, an atomic bomb was exploded over Hiroshima . Three days later, a second bomb was dropped on Nagasaki.

Within days the war with Japan was at a close.

Had these bombs not been dropped and had the invasion been launched as scheduled, combat casualties in Japan would have been at a minimum of the tens of thousands. Every foot of Japanese soil would have been paid for by Japanese and American lives. One can only guess at how many civilians would have committed suicide in their homes or in futile mass military attacks. In retrospect, the 1 million American men who were to be the casualties of the invasion were instead lucky enough to survive the war.

Intelligence studies and military estimates made 50 years ago, and not latter-day speculation, clearly indicate that the battle for Japan might well have resulted in the biggest blood-bath in the history of modern warfare. Far worse would be what might have happened to Japan as a nation and as a culture. When the invasion came, it would have come after several months of fire-bombing all of the remaining Japanese cities. The cost in human life that resulted from the two atomic blasts would be small in comparison to the total number of Japanese lives that would have been lost by this aerial devastation.

With American forces locked in combat in the south of Japan , little could have prevented the Soviet Union from marching into the northern half of the Japanese home islands. Japan today could be divided much like Korea and Germany . The world was spared the cost of Operation Downfall, however, because Japan formally surrendered to the United Nations September 2, 1945, and World War II was over. The aircraft carriers, cruisers and transport ships scheduled to carry the invasion troops to Japan , ferried home American troops in a gigantic operation called Magic Carpet. In the fall of 1945, in the aftermath of the war, few people concerned themselves with the invasion plans. Following the surrender, the classified documents, maps, diagrams and appendices for Operation Downfall were packed away in boxes and eventually stored at the National Archives. These plans that called for the invasion of Japan paint a vivid description of what might have been one of the most horrible campaigns in the history of man. The fact that the story of the invasion of Japan is locked up in the National Archives and is not told in our history books is something for which all Americans can be thankful.

I had the distinct privilege of being assigned as later commander of the 8090th PACUSA detach, 20th AAF, and one of the personal pilots of then Brig General Fred Irving USMA 17 when he was commanding general of Western Pacific Base Command. We had a brand new C-46F tail number 8546. It was different from the rest of the C-46 line in that it was equipped with Hamilton Hydromatic props whereas the others had Curtis electrics. On one of the many flights we had 14 Generals and Admirals aboard on an inspection trip to Saipan and Tinian . Notable aboard was General Thomas C. Handy, who had signed the operational order to drop the atomic bombs on Japan . President Truman's orders were verbal. He never signed an order to drop the bombs.

On this particular flight, about half way from Guam to Tinian , a full Colonel (General Handy's aide) came up forward and told me that General Handy would like to come up and look around. I told him, "Hell yes, he can fly the airplane if he wants to, sir". He came up and sat in the copilot's seat, put on the headset and we started chatting. I asked him if he ever regretted dropping the bombs. His answer was, "Certainly not. We saved a million lives on both sides by doing it.. It was the right thing to do".

I never forgot that trip and the honor of being able to talk to General Handy. I was a Lt at the time. A postscript about General Irving; he was one of the finest gentleman I ever met. He was the oldest living graduate of West Point when he passed on at 100+. He was one of three Generals who had the honor of being both the "Supe" and Com" of West Point . I think the other gentleman were BG Sladen, class of 1890 and BG Stewart, Class of 1896.

I am very happy the invasion never came off because if it had I don't think I would be writing this today. We were to provide air support for the boots on the ground guys. The small arms fire would have been devastating and lethal as hell to fly through... Just think what it would have been like on the ground.....

As I have mentioned to many, had Truman not dropped the A-bombs on Hiroshima & Nagasaki , I would not be here. Any of you who had fathers serving in the military in 1945 probably wouldn’t be here either. For all of the historical "second guessers" who try to indict America & Truman as criminals for dropping the bombs, this proves their ignorance.
