What they don't realize is that Yakima will be the safest place in the world for me to be. Just ask Sun Tzu.

The fighting was over pretty quickly. I believe it was about five days of active fighting in Dublin. While there were firefights elsewhere, most of the heavy fighting was in Dublin.<br /><br />After the rebels surrendered, their leaders were taken to jail. Trials were held in short order, and sentences carried out in shorter order still. Most of the Irish populace was originally against the rebels until the leaders were executed by firing squads, especially James Connolly, who was wounded in the fighting and had to be tied to a chair to be shot. Shooting a crippled man really ran counter to the Irish sense of fairness and changed public opinion almost overnight.<br /><br />Within two years, there was a revolution going on against the British, which the Irish eventually won in MOST of the country.<br /><br />You're well enough known to enough people that the .gov acting against you will cause them a lot of grief. I think you're safe as long as you keep writing and talking. <br /><br />I, too, would like to be able to see video of your presentations if they should become available.<br /><br />If you ever find your way to Dublin, I highly recommend taking a couple of hours to tour Kilmainham Gaol. Let me know when you're going, and I'll try to have a couple of tour guides at your service.CowboyDanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14244721191100429800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-37951598838880860082015-06-16T18:10:49.287-05:002015-06-16T18:10:49.287-05:00Please excuse my ignorance, but is "Waco2&quo...Please excuse my ignorance, but is "Waco2" a reference to the police ambush of the bikers in Waco ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-8498327909624145632015-06-16T18:04:13.497-05:002015-06-16T18:04:13.497-05:00The Left is teetering on the edge of a preference ...The Left is teetering on the edge of a preference cascade, and they know it. They are walking the proverbial knife's edge, knowing that 1) they can't ease up, or they'll lose legitimacy; and 2) they can't push too far too fast, or the majority of the American People will unite against them. Spontaneously and immediately, and perhaps violently.<br /><br />(Ed Driscoll, quoting Prof. Glenn Reynolds, has a good run-down on preference cascades, if anyone is unfamiliar with the term: http://pjmedia.com/eddriscoll/2012/06/03/preference-cascade/)Archerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09378629103793458871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-9289438428036771842015-06-16T17:43:18.693-05:002015-06-16T17:43:18.693-05:00The way I heard it, Yamamoto did know better, resi...The way I heard it, Yamamoto <i>did</i> know better, resisting calls for war with us, and promising only six months of success. Which he delivered almost to the day, up to Midway. He knew we could bury them. But, he was a patriot and loyal to his Emperor and his oath.<br /><br />More on topic, I'm reminded of Col. Cooper, which you've probably posted here several times:<br /><br />“It is interesting to hear certain kinds of people insist that the citizen cannot fight the government. This would have been news to the men of Lexington and Concord, as well as the Mujahedeen in Afghanistan. The citizen most certainly can fight the government, and usually wins when he tries. Organized national armies are useful primarily for fighting against other organized national armies. When they try to fight against the people, they find themselves at a very serious disadvantage. If you will just look around at the state of the world today, you will see that the guerillero has the upper hand. Irregulars usually defeat regulars, providing they have the will. Such fighting is horrible to contemplate, but will continue to dominate brute strength.”Jeffersonianhttp://jeffersonian.namenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-20445645434695112882015-06-16T17:39:44.778-05:002015-06-16T17:39:44.778-05:00Mike,

The 4GW stuff is honestly a big part of what originally piqued my interest to start reading here. This is the quality of info we need to disseminate far and wide, I think it helps to build the mindset that is needed in our very uncertain future.TTX IIInoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-2651542760639046322015-06-16T09:42:21.649-05:002015-06-16T09:42:21.649-05:00Waco 2 was a set up from the beginning, as OPFOR k...Waco 2 was a set up from the beginning, as OPFOR knows full well by now that we will react to their moves, put it before the public, and beat them thusly. They set it up to fall the direction it did, they hushed up everyone they needed to with threats or jail itself, and it was planned to go down quick like it did, leaving our reaction to be WTF. If you expected Mike to somehow solve or remedy it from where he was, without even a scintilla of knowledge about it, or for Threepers and Oath Keepers to magically appear and prevent it, where exactly is YOUR head? Remember they monitor this site, and a major coup was in the offing for them to do a second Waco, after Mike said " No more free Wacos". Do you see the coup they counted? As in, IN YOUR FACE. Don't think that wasn't on their minds, it's not a coincidence, and it's not happenstance. It's also slightly naive to believe OPFOR won't have their successes too. With all that in mind, I suggest a lot of you who come here to start doing an assessment of the current intelligence, and begin planning your next move, because they, OPFOR, are both reacting to and maneuvering on us, and our people . Not to mention skulling it out in their S2/3.
