SOUTHCOM.
The decision to deploy the Deputy Director of SOUTHCOM Lt. Gen P.K. Keene is correct. Spoke to Larry Johnson, No Quarter, Thursday 14, and he told me that SOUTHCOM has trained on exercises that include a scenario of evacuating a civilian disaster zone such as a city. The video shows the corpses in the streets. The bulldozers are said to have started mass burials. Larry Johnson says the 82nd Airborne units are going in to deal with the mass burials as well as logistics for the vast refugee camps that must be established. Quickly. No strong signs of anarchy yet, such as firefights or fires, yet mayhem is now a watch. Out of water, food, time. Keene will command 8k American military and a flotilla of large ships, providing the stability at the airport and the port to bring in everything. At the same time, POTUS has named his two predecessors, Clinton and Bush, to head up the political relief for Haiti, and we can anticipate much video of the two young presidents mourning with the dishomed.
I heard the other day that any dollar now spent on the relief effort in Haiti will lessen the demand to evacuate the bulk of its population to the U.S. As I understand it, the nation of Haiti will need to be rebuilt from the ground up. Nothing is functioning - and nothing will be functioning for a long time to come. Can America resist the impulse to open its arms to endless waves of 'dishomed'?
The cynical side of me would say - and don't think POTUS is not considering it - let them come here; we'll provide them with life's necessities while we ready our shovels to the task of re-building their tropical paradise. They'll be forever grateful and vote Democrat. Imagine, a whole new constituency, to ensure our own continuing drift to the left; ironically, just to make sure that we will never be able to help or, depending on your political orientation, hinder anybody again should flocks of black swans suddenly drop from the skies as so much horse flesh anywhere in the world.
