Real Experiences

[Mortblanc]

Well, we had an incident over here in the town of Boston. Who needs make believe senerios when the world is filled with ral ones?

For those that have little geographic knowledge of the U.S. Boston is a part of what we refer too as the Eastern Megalopolis. It is one single physical city that streches for 1,000 miles as an unbroken population center. That mass of population is devided by state and local boundries but it is all one single population cluster covering our eastern coast.

It begins just north of Boston and does not end until one reaches the area of Newport News, Virginia. It includes cities you might have heard of called Boston, New York, Philidelphia, Washington DC, and several entire states like New Jersey, Massacuists, Connecticut, Rode Island.

You get the picutes, it is one big urban center containing about 50,000,000 people at a concentration of 400-1000 people per sq/mi and often more dense during business hours.

This attack was not major, by world standards. I experienced a tormado last year the killed 20, injured hundreds and caused billions in property damage. This attack was actually quite unsucessful tatically, but it has caused extreme panic and has revealed a continuing problem with our emergency management of crisis.

The first thing that happens is TPTB cordon off a section and evacuate.

Then they shut down public transport and block the surface roads so the evacuees can not move.

Next they shut down cell phone service, diverting it to Emergency Service use.

That means you are ordered to leave, then kept from leaving and in the chaos you can not call anyone to inform them of your situation!

The next move on the list is "disinformation". Politicians start jockying for face time on TV and talk for hours while saying nothing.

The news services start showing the same film loop over and over, imprinting the horror and extending the terror of a few seconds into endless hours of blood and gore.

The theme of the experience is that when a tragedy strikes

1. one will be hearded out of one area and into another while escape from the designated holding area is blocked.

2. you will be given false and contridectory information so TPTB can maintain control of the heard and the area.

3. your communication will be shut off so you can get only the information TPTB wishes you to have. (I have stood holding a useless phone while a policeman talked on his phone standing next to me)

4. anyone asking questions will be suspect, anyone moving around without pernission will be arrested.

5. all this will take place within seconds of the incident and will remain in force indefianately.

Oddly, yesterday I observed that the streets had been cordoned off buy black government SUVs before the blast dabris settled to the ground! They were in place in seconds, not minutes, as if they had practiced the senerio in advance! There were cameras covering the blast location and one could watch the plan going into action.

I have lived through or observed 4 incidents of this nature in the past few years and the process has been the same during each incident. They have a plan book and they follow it strictly.

TPTB view any crisis an excuse to impliment a police state when needed and as needed. This is not just a U.S. problem.

I believe it is part of the ingrained power and control issue of any person in a leadership role. CYA! It is easier to get forgiveness than to get permission.
