The United States Civil Disturbance Plan 55-2

The following information was obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. The original printing was of June 1, 1984. The information herein is UNCLASSIFIED and does not come within the scope of directions governing the protection of information affecting the national security.

It took a little more than three years to obtain a full copy of Operation Garden Plot from the U.S. Government, and was done so under the freedom of information act for unclassified documents. The implications within the full context of this document should make the hair on the back of your head stand on end!!!!!

In this document signed by the Secretary of the Army, is hereby assigned as DOD Executive Agent for civil disturbance control operations. Under Plan 55-2 he is to use airlift and logistical support, in assisting appropriate military commanders in the 50 states, District of Columbia, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and US possessions and territories, or any political subdivision thereof.

The official name of this project is called "Operation Garden Plot."

Under this plan for the deployment of Operation Garden Plot, the use of CIDCON-1 will be mandatory. This direct support of civil disturbance control operations is to be used by the Army, USAF, Navy, and Marine Corp. with an airlift force to be comprised of MAC Organic Airlift Resources, airlift capable aircraft of all other USAF major commands, and all other aerial reconnaissance and Airborne Psychological Operations. This is to include control communications systems, aeromedical evacuation, helicopter and Weather Support Systems.

If any civil disturbance by a resistance group, religious organization, or other persons considered to be non-conformist takes place, under Appendix 3 to Annex B of Plan 55-2 hereby gives all Federal forces total power over the situation if local and state authorities cannot put down said dissenters.

Annex A, section B of Operation Garden Plot defines tax protesters, militia groups, religious cults, and general anti-government dissenters as Disruptive Elements. This calls for the deadly force to be used against any extremist or dissident perpetrating any and all forms of civil disorder.

Under section D, a Presidential Executive Order will authorize and direct the Secretary of Defense to use the Armed Forces of the United States to restore order.

2 TAB A APPENDIX 1 TO ANNEX S USAF CIVIL DISTURBANCE PLAN 55-2 EXHIBIT POR:SGH, JCS Pub 6, Vol 5, AFR 160-5 hereby provides for America's military and the National Guard State Partnership Program to join with United Nations personal in said operations. This links selected U.S. National Guard units with the Defense Ministries of "Partnership For Peace." This was done in an effort to provide military support to civil authorities in response to civil emergencies.

Under Presidential Decision Directive No. 25, this program serves to cement people to relationships between the citizens of the United States, and the global military of the UN establishments of the emerging democracies of Central and Eastern European countries. This puts all of our National Guardsmen under the direct jurisdiction of the United Nations.

Section 3:
This plan could be implemented under any of the following situation:

(1) Spontaneous civil disturbances which involve large numbers of persons and/or which continue for a considerable period of time, may exceed the capacity of local civil law enforcement agencies to suppress. Although this type of activity can arise without warning as a result of sudden, unanticipated popular unrest (past riots), it may also result from more prolonged dissidence.

This would most likely be an outgrowth of serious social, political or economic issues which divide segments of the American population. Such factionalism could manifest itself through repeated demonstrations, protest marches and other forms of legitimate opposition but which would have the potential for erupting into spontaneous violence with little or no warning.

(2) Planned acts of violence or civil disobedience which, through arising from the same causes as (1) above, are seized upon by a dedicated group of dissidents who plan and incite purposeful acts designed to disrupt social order.

This may occur either because leaders of protest organizations intentionally induce their followers to perpetrate violent acts, or because a group of militants infiltrates an otherwise peaceful protest and seeks to divert it from its peaceful course.

Subsection C: (2) Environmental satellite products will be continue to be available. (d) Responsibilities. Meteorological support to civil disturbance operations will be arranged or provided by AWS wings.

The 7th. Weather Wing (7WW) is responsible for providing / arranging support for Military Airlift Command (MAC) airlift operations. The 5th Weather Wing (5WW) is responsible for supporting the United States Army Forces Command.

(3) SITUATION. Civil disturbance may threaten or erupt at any time in the CONUS and grow to such proportions as to require the use the Federal military forces to bring the situation under control.

A flexible weather support system is required under control. A flexible weather support system is required to support the many and varied options of this Plan.

ANNEX H: XXOW, AWSR 55-2, AWSR 23-6, AFR 23-31, AR 115-10, AFR 105-3.

Subsection B:

Concept of Environmental Support. Environmental support will be provided by elements of Air Weather Service (AWS) in accordance with refs a-f. The senior staff meteorologist deployed int the Task Force Headquarters (TFH) will be the staff weather officer (SWO) to the TFH.

Centralized environmental support products are requested in accordance with AWSR 105-18. (4) Weather support is provided by weather units located at existing CONUS bases or by deployed SWOs and / or weather teams to the objective areas.

(5) Support MAC source will be provide in accordance with the procedures in MARC 103-15. MAC forces will be provided in accordance with the procedures in AFR 105-3.

(a) Air Force Global Weather Central: Provides centralized products as requested.

1. GENERAL Opposition forces or groups may attempt to gain knowledge of this plan and 'use that knowledge to prevent or degrade the effectiveness of the actions outlined in this plan. In order to protect operations undertaken to accomplish the mission, it is necessary to control sources of information that can be exploited by those opposition forces or groups.

OPSEC is the effort to protect operations by identifying and controlling intelligence indicators susceptible to exploitation. The objective of OPSEC, in the execution of this plan, is to assure the security of operations, mission effectiveness, and increase the probability of mission success.

2. RESPONSIBILITY FOR OPERATIONS SECURITY (OPSEC):

The denial of information to an enemy is inherently a command responsibility. However, since the operations Officer at any level of command is responsible to his commander for the Overall planning and execution of operations, he has the principal staff interest in assuring maximum protection of the operation and must assume primary responsibility instibility for ensuring that the efforts of all other staff elements are coordinated toward this
end. However, every other individual associated with, or aware of, the operation must assist in safeguarding the security of the operation.

3. OBJECTIVES:

a. The basic objective of OPSEC is to preserve the security of friendly forces and thereby to enhance the probability of successful mission accomplishment. "Security" in this context relates to the protection of friendly forces. It also includes the protection of operational information to prevent degradation of mission effectiveness through the disclosure of prior knowledge of friendly operations to the opposition.

b. OPSEC pervades the entire planning process and must be a matter of continuing concern from the conception of an operation, throughout the preparatory and execution phases, and during critiques, reports, press releases, and the like conducted during the post operation phase.

4. Specific operations orders and standard operating procedures "MUST be developed with the awareness that the opposition may be able to identify and exploit vulnerable activities.

That is a good site to read this type of material. Lots of curious stuff.

If I can give anyone credit for this great file, I give to the guys in the "cafes". Thanks, guys.

Please notice that your "faithful" political servants did not tell you about this law. But they wrote and passed it. It took someone about there years to find it. And they had to force it out into the open. Congressman Gonzalez admits that it exists. Gee, thanks a lot, you guys.

$500,000,000,000

As you all know by now the government is about to offer a $500 Billion bailout for the financial sector, essentially rewarding them for their unethical and imbecilic behavior.

While I understand it is necessary, I also understand that the actual number will likely be closer to One Trillion by the time it's all said and done.

One Trillion Dollars.
One Trillion Dollars.

Are you freaking kidding me?

What I have not heard in these proposals is what is going to be done for the people who got mortgages from these companies; you know, the ones who are about to lose their homes...

So, this is the question. How the hell can they expect us to bail them out for homes they are going to take away.

...We are going to pay off their debt, and then they get to foreclose on the properties they screwed up on? Is it just me, or is there something SERIOUSLY wrong with that?

Maybe I'm missing something. Maybe I'm not as informed as I think I am. Maybe I should just trust that they wouldn't do that; make us pay for homes that we don't get to keep. Maybe they are actually really good companies and really care about us.

And maybe pigs & pit bulls wearing lipstick can fly.

I don't pretend to know everything about this, and I could be missing something. However, what I do know is that if we don't call them up and tell them they need to add a provision that these companies cannot foreclose on the homes they offered bad loans for, they are going to think we are stupid enough to just sit by and watch the biggest fleecing of the American people in history of this country.

We MUST act! We MUST call now; BEFORE it is too late!

Sarah Palin: Give the Money Back

Cenk Uygur

Sarah Palin famously said in her Republican convention speech that she told Congress "thanks, but no thanks" for the Bridge to Nowhere. Now, this has been discredited in just about every media outlet in the country. During the Charlie Gibson interview, she didn't even deny that she in fact lobbied for the bridge when she was running for governor.

This, of course, has not stopped her from making the same claim dozens of times since it's been discredited. But what's even more interesting is that she apparently kept as much of the money as the federal government sent her. What happened to thanks, but no thanks?

Though the entire financing for the bridge did not pan out, the US government has set aside $73 million for the project. So far, a lot of money has been wasted building access roads to bridges that don't exist and never will. Of course, people get rich off these projects, so they don't give a damn where they lead as long as the money leads right back into their pockets.

HUH? Many Americans Not Paying Taxes At All?

So, Obama won't be cutting taxes for 90% of the country because many aren't paying taxes at all? Well Johnny Boy, are you talking about the super rich or the unemployed? I'm confused.

More Piggy Lies From MSM: Murdoch's News Corp deliberately mangled the story...

From DU Member: Piewhacket

Channel 2 (KTVU - Oakland California, a FOX affiliate) yesterday published the 'lipstick on a pig' story in newscast, but so obviously and deliberately mangled the story using edited excerpts that it omitted or completely distorted what happened and what was said.

As a result most people who watch that station do not know that McCain's campaign has just effectively called Palin a pig, then blamed Obama for it. The audience was not told what happened, only that Obama should apologize for it.

For the last ten years one of the most powerful men in the world, (the hundredth+-richest) has systematically constructed a propaganda machine and aligned himself with political interests at the far right, shaping the American republican party.

His interests in media are world-wide, and include key media in China. This propaganda playbook is straight from the third Reich. The consequences are of
worldwide significance.

I am a spirited defender of the US constitution, but while "Freedom of the press" IS essential for democracy IT IS NOT a suicide pack, folks. Media must be subject to reasonable regulation against consolidation and monopoly and such protections ARE ALSO essential to the existence of free press, and therefore democracy.

These protections have been completely undermined while America has been
lulled into focusing on tripe.

Fun With Pigs... They asked for it!

Since McCain and Palin are so fond of Pigs... I thought I'd show them exactly what they look like now that they have decided that this election has NOTHING to do with policy.

Candace Miller's Hypocrisy of Lipstick & Pigs....

Michigan Congresswoman Candace Miller spoke on the floor yesterday, calling for Barack Obama to apologize to Sarah Palin and the women of America for calling Palin a pig.

Problems with this:

1. Obama did NOT cal Palin a pig. Obama in fact did not even mention her name. He was referring to McCain's policies, and his "faux change" candidacy when he said:

"You can put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig."

2. John McCain himself has used the phrase many times; most recently in May 2008 when criticizing Hillary Clinton's health care plan.

3. Miller did NOT demand an apology from McCain for using the same statement when talking about Hillary.

What can you do? Call Her Out!

Tell Candace Miller that you DEMAND that she DEMANDs John McCain apologize to Hillary Clinton and the rest of American women for his "misogynistic comments."

What's good for the pig is good for the piglet.
