Foreign Troop Exercises in Jacksonville Florida...
In the middle of the biggest budget crisis in history, with our military over-extended fighting wars on two fronts... - why are they doing this now?
We have bases in the Carribean, South America, and bases with non public waterfront in Florida.
Why a drill on a public beach in Jacksonville?

"Multinational forces storm Mayport beach for drills"
The surprise scene at the shore startled beachgoers...
[Just like yesterday's buzzing of New York City was meant to startle... it's called a Psy-Op people...pre-conditioning]

Sailors and Marines along the beach at Mayport began moving the crowd away from the water Saturday afternoon as the amphibious assault vehicles approached across the waves.
"Everybody back up!" a sailor shouted. "Keep backing up. Now move back just a little more."
Moments later, the vehicles - looking like the offspring of a submarine and a tank - burst through the surf, surging forward as their treads bit into the sand.
The hydraulic brakes slammed into action, and the rear of the vehicles opened, disgorging more than 100 troops from eight countries.
"Left, go left!" shouted a U.S. Marine. "Shape up over there!"
Overhead, a brace of helicopters rented the sky.
The assault on the beach at Mayport Naval Station was part of the Marine's Partnership of the Americas exercise, held in conjunction with the Navy's Unitas exercise.
"It's really a learning environment for everybody," said Col. Jay Huston, commanding officer of the task force doing the exercise.
During the past week, the troops - Marines from the U.S. and six countries in Central and South America, as well as soldiers from Canada - worked together at Camp Blanding, fast- roping out of helicopters, firing weapons and sharing tactics.
They jelled quickly.
"The only difference in identity" said Lt. Col. Jorge Garcia of Colombia, "is in the color of the uniforms. We have the same objectives."
That was evident on the amphibious transport dock ships the troops boarded in the past few days: Throughout the USS Mesa Verde, for example, gaggles of marines from Chile conversed with those from Peru and troops from Colombia shared war stories with those from the United States.
That type of interaction is vital considering that multinational forces operating in the region need to cooperate in the field.
"We are better for these exercises," said Maj. Gen. James Williams. "At the end of the day, you can't do that sort of thing unless you figure it out in advance."
For the vast majority of U.S. Marines, Saturday's exercise was the first time they'd experienced an amphibious assault.
That made riding in the assault vehicles - which plow along beneath the water until approaching the beach - an experience.
"It was pretty great," said Petty Officer 2nd Class Rene Quintero, a medic working with the Marines. "When we hit the surf, it just jumped up."
The entire exercise, Quintero said, brought the troops from all the nations together. "They're true professionals," he said. "We've gathered the best out of all the nations."
A few minutes after those professionals hit the sand around their assault vehicles, the exercise was over. The troops stood, brushed sand from their uniforms and shook hands with one other.

So much for joint exercises with foreign troops on US soil being a conspiracy theory...
Video of your coming "North American Union" Military Forces...

We have major FEMA and Homeland Security exercises going on all across the country right now. Homeland Security just upgraded standard equipment for field personnel to now include bio-chemical suits.
Why?
Why now?
We have foreign troops from six different countries doing live exercises on public beaches in Florida...
Why?
Why now?
We have a flu pandemic brewing in Mexico, right after US Intel officials told us it was on the verge of collapse, and right after it got $50+ billion from the IMF, and a $30 billion dollar swap line from the US Fed.

Hmm?
Mexico borrows $50 billion from the IMF... and now it's suddenly collapsing?
A corrupt narco-state loaded with natural resources, about to be looted by the IMF bankster-gangsters.
...whodathunkit?!?!
And in July, we will see the largest military exercise in history on US soil - the "NLE 09" exercise involving all branches of the military, intelligence agencies, FEMA, Homeland Security, and State & Local Police.
Hmmm?
How much you want to bet that we'll be doing another "emergency" bankster-gangster bailout right about then?
Now what was it that Joe Biden and Colin Powell were saying?
Something about a "generated crisis"..."a test" and a "solution" -- we wouldn't be happy with...

Kind of seems like they're not only getting ready for one, but perhaps creating one as well.
Just as GM & Chrysler go into bankruptcy, just as Citi and Bank of America take us to phase two of the financial collapse, and the final phase of the controlled demolition of America.
They saw the millions of people in the steets at the Tea Party and "End The Fed" protests... they're not stupid. They know what's coming in the 2010 elections and they aren't waiting.
And if we do...
This July 4th may literally be America's final Independance Day.
