Obama’s Expanding Covert Wars . . . in France, Belgium & Spain?

Stacy Summary:  We’re used to the US meddling in Latin America, ex-Soviet states, Africa and the Middle East, but this bit in Scahill’s latest Nation article caught my attention:  The Nation has learned from well-placed special operations sources that among the countries where elite special forces teams working for the Joint Special Operations Command have been deployed under the Obama administration are: Iran, Georgia, Ukraine, Bolivia, Paraguay, Ecuador, Peru, Yemen, Pakistan (including in Balochistan) and the Philippines. These teams have also at times deployed in Turkey, Belgium, France and Spain.

  6. Those covert wars remind me of how the Spartans used to assassinate any Helots with any leadership ability.

    Hey bankers,

    You started with theft and have moved on to murder. Proud of yourselves?

  7. Obama doesn’t get it. If he wants the people to love him these wars need to be overt. It’s treason in the US to oppose the senseless slaughter of foreigners, but they won’t love you if you don’t tell them their tax dollars are being given to the warfare welfarers. Make it all public and Palin will have to prove her patriotism by campaigning to have your face on Mt Rushmore!

  8. ah @Beardo you fuck. :-)

  9. @ronron,

    Here is an explanation for what that song was talking about:

  12. @Beardo. it’s sad to see max and stacy splitting up like that. were the cops there? :-)

  13. @ronron
    Max and Stacy splitting up? I don’t believe it; Max is not that dumb.

  14. @Beardo. wish snoot would report on the SDR,s. :-(

  15. haha. too fucking much. where’s SNOOT?

  16. @ronron,

    I share your sadness. “Everybody loves somebody sometimes …”

  17. @Beardo. where you gonna find a snoot like that?

  18. hey beardo. don’t tell anybody else that max had a sausage in his pants again. stacy was pissed. :-)

  19. i shouldn’t have said anything. :-)

  23. The US administration are so paranoid they have probably set up cameras to spy on themselves just in case they are dreaming.

    Ha! Just saw the latest Di Caprio film called ‘Inception’. Quite cool.

    Fundemerrally USA is morphing in Nazi Germany or Stalin’s USSR. Seing enemies everywhere and everyone that is a not a USA sheep Wall Street Nazi neo-con slave is considered suspect.

  35. It’s the new warfare – chasing a bunch of suicidal bearded guys riding camels who seek nukes. Get ready for the cave man days to return. (Hmmm, interesting though – Stacy in a loin cloth..hmmm).

  36. I heard that the Enron documents were destroyed in building 7 of the World Trade Center, when it was brought down. If true, it was sure a lucky thing for a select few.

    If the US secret ops are already in France and Paraguay, then perhaps they could run body guard style commando stuff for you. They probably already know exactly where he is.

  37. …For your PMF production. :P

  38. This goes out all the left who were suckered by Obama 18 months ago. I wrote an article in my local paper (20,000 circ) about what a fraud he was (see john pilger see wayne madsen interview w/ AJ yesterday – tarpley was on the money respectively)

    I live in a small country, where everyone more or less knows each other, where we have no army as such, no WMD, no overpowering agendas; its overwhelming sometimes and I can’t believe or imagine how it is to watch your government sell you out day after day. (I know my gov. sells me out but in terms of scale, the amount of people, amount of lives shattered, its….well…numb with imagination.

    This ones for you Dailykos…

  41. USA needs to stay out of Europe – no bases, no covert operations inside the continent, nothing.

    Europe’s focus, on foreign affairs and economically, is turned to Asia anyways, so US is just an annoyance running on empty economy, held together as long as the Chinese feel like funding it.

    US has done very little good since the Marshall plan following WWII.

  42. license to kill. Or as a good friend of mine told me in tears after being a special unitsmilitair: I’m a bloody murderer. It is all I can do…

  43. Since CO2 is always on topic on a Stacy post:

    “Plant productivity is a measure of the rate of the photosynthesis process that green plants use to convert solar energy, carbon dioxide and water to sugar, oxygen and eventually plant tissue. Compared with a 6 percent increase in plant productivity during the 1980s and 1990s, the decline observed over the last decade is only 1 percent. The shift, however, could impact food security, biofuels and the global carbon cycle.” from http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/08/100820101504.htm

    Notice that net plant productivity is up 5% over the last 30 years. In other words we can feed more people and animals. That is good news, not bad.

  44. Notice also the politically correct attempt to spin good news as bad.

    As much as covert wars are a source of concern — as these matters certainly are for the nations with US covert forces in their EEZs …

    The moral is the US cannot afford to pay for them, and each day this lack of being able to pay increases.

    The UK may have originated “Gunboat Diplomacy” — but it was not a huge spender with respect to covert forces. By behaving in a reasonable manner and being self sacrificial (something the Romans never fully achieved with the Britons 1500 years ago) — covert war as part of Empire never needed to evolve.

    The laws of accounting ultimately stopped working in the UK’s favour, but it least it left behind some good things in its former colonies. The US and its empire, like its special forces — leaves behind nothing.

    US Special forces operations are at best a band-aid measure to make the collapse of empire less destructive, but it is doubtful the destructive forces can or could ever be abated as Americans are not self sacrificial.

    Well, to be realistic — I fully expect every US house to have its toilet bugged by law or statue soon.

    – This will not be done to the US poor, as they persons who do not even exist.

    – The US Middle Class and US Upper Middle Class are the potential usurpers to the US Ruling Class, so they can expect total surveillance.

    – ‘If they don’t like the way you went to the bathroom, you’ll get a nasty note’ … a common saying one should expect in the future US … meanwhile there will be an infrastructural collapse so that some parts of the US resemble Pakistan (no water or electricity or usable roads) …

  47. Don’t worry, progressive types! Just send all your money to Wikileaks.

    *POOF* … no more wars.

    I just read the same thing in other newspapers, it’s gonna spread world wide. guilty or not, the damaged done (to him), a smear campaign and an attempt to discreadit him and his information. But it also works great as an misdirection for the public. sad, sad, sad.

    next time you’ll hear Julian Assagne mentioned be sure to notice the rape allegations gets mentioned over and over, the human reaction to this is; if you’re accused of something then it is probable that you’ve done something… and that shit sells right into the thousands of home’s in America and possible Europe.

    A new game has started.

  52. I’m not that surprised about the rape charge. Thats how spy’s blow steam generally, alcohol and womanizing, if you commit one crime why not an other. Hopefully the US will bring Julian Assange to justice for his crimes and deception. Or maybe bring justice to him, where ever he is.

  53. Or maybe bring justice to him, where ever he is. Bronxy

    And where will the US get this “justice” to dispense? How just are our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? Go Wikileaks!

    There must be some relationship between INTERPOL and these assassin units: why no objection to INTERPOL, Stacy?

    It’s the war of the future, the monetary authorities fighting competition for their criminal backers. It’s international in scope. Obama is representing the new form of totalitarian elite terror.

    Morning, ronron!

    Delivering justice can be done in many ways, from carpet bombing to a bullet in the back of the head.
