[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] America has begun preparing for a major attack on the nation's capital - by simulating incoming missiles and hijacked airplanes.
The Beltway-area around Washington DC, known by defense personnel as the 'National Capital Region,' was successfully defended against 'simulated cruise missiles and 'compromised aircraft,' the company said. The tests come amid rising tensions worldwide, with the US amassing a war machine in the MidEast in a clear message to Iran to stay on the sidelines as Israel prepares to launch a ground invasion into Gaza. Earlier this month, in Eastern Europe, a Russian rocket killed more than 50 Ukrainians after in a crowded village café and grocery store in the nation's eastern region of Kharkiv - one of the deadliest strikes targeting civilians since the war began. The recent demonstrations, however, were described as part of an 'evolution of technical capabilities for the system,' with little sign that the preplanned exercise related to these exploding global conflicts. | |

| #1 "War is Our Business, and Business is Good". Nothing sells better to the elites who infest Washington than anything that protects them from danger. Protecting US,the American people, from invasion across the non-existent border, national bankruptcy from profligate spending, the massive decline in our middle class, crime, homelessness, drugs, de-industrialization, inflation, billions to our enemies, meaningless wars, moronic foreign policies, racial discord....not so much! |
