[QUOTE="Sistrin, post: 69231048, member: 309500"] I understand and I agree. I would never cite Alex Jones as a primary source on anything. However to illustrate my point I will cite an example. One night I watched one of Jones' videos posted on Youtube concerning operation What-Ever-It-Was in Texas. Included in that video was imagery of US Army troops training for crowd control. They had hired civilians to act as unarmed opposition, protesters and such. The civilians had been told by whoever trained them for the exercise that when the soldiers approached to respond in a particular manner. That manner was to shout they were sovereign citizens of the United States and were not subject to military rule. At that point the soldiers rushed in to round up the dissidents/protesters. Jones asked the question why the exercise would be targeted against US citizens as opposed to a foreign threat. As an Army veteran I remember training in crowd control. However in my day we never structured the training to be against US Citizens expressing their status as US Citizens. I thought Jones' question legitimate. The point of my earlier post is if discussing the training exercise I would not cite Jones on the subject, but his question was a valid starting point for looking into the issue. I will also state that Mother Jones questioned what was going on during that operation as well. [/QUOTE]
