Over the 22nd and 23rd of September, 2021, while the U.S. Congress argues over how much deeper they want to put the U.S. taxpayer into debt, the Peshmerga received a large ‘divestment’ of brand new HMMWVs paid for by U.S. and ‘coalition’ taxpayers.

In my previous Mother of all Money Pit report I pointed out the sudden build-up of Islamic State, aka DAIISH (DA for al-DAwla, I for al-Islamiya, I for al-Iraq, SH al-SHam [al-Sham=Syria]), forces in Iraq, but coincidentally there are big happenings regarding the oil industry in Iraq as well.
Just over a week ago, Colonel Todd Burroughs, Deputy Director of U.S. Military Advisor Group-North (MAG-North), told Iraqi Peshmerga (Kurdish militia) “this is just the beginning” in regards to more U.S. military freebies. On 20SEP2021, another million dollar ‘divestment’ took place!

All these ‘divestments’ come at the same time that Iraq has suddenly decided to build up its military, and Biden is deploying more U.S. personnel to Iraq:

16SEP2021, the United States Secretary of Defense and Secretary of State meet for consultations, after the AUKUS announcement, with the Defence Minister and Foreign Minister of Australia (member of British Empire Commonwealth).
16SEP2021, Indian (India is a member of the British Empire Commonwealth) news commentator tries to explain the silliness of AUKUS, and why AUKUS does not include Canada and New Zealand (Commonwealth members and also Five Eyes members):
16SEP2021, German state run news outlet speculates that the true reason for AUKUS is to counter the economic sanctions that China placed against Australia:
AUKUS= Australia United Kingdom United States
“The first major initiative of AUKUS will be to deliver a nuclear-powered submarine fleet for Australia.”– Scott Morrison, Prime Minister of Australia
“…perhaps most significantly, the UK, Australia, and the U.S. will be joined even more closely together…”-Boris Johnson, Prime Minister of United Kingdom
“AUKUS will bring together our sailors, our scientists, and our industries to maintain and expand our edge in military capabilities and critical technologies, such as cyber, artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, and undersea domains.”-Joe Biden, President of the United States

On 02SEP2021, the Royal Australian Navy visited the U.S. Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) in Rhode Island: “Australia is unique in that they don’t just want to buy, they want to look under the hood.”-Trevor Kelly-Bissonnette, NUWC, commenting on the visit by Australian Navy officials, statement published on 14SEP2021
U.S. Navy photo by James Travassos, 02SEP2021.
“As Australia transitions to a new class of conventionally powered submarine in the early 2030s, it is important that Australia remains as interoperable with the U.S. as possible, leveraging their significantly larger industrial and technological base but providing support and unique, niche capabilities in return. In order to achieve this, it is important that we bring the Australian public support onside to support us in our endeavors. Given the often secretive nature of our line of work, visits like this are all the more important to educate our ministers and career politicians of the strength of our allied relationship. The last two visits to NUWC by Australian have been remarkably successful in this regard.”-Commander Neil Carson, Royal Australian Navy Joint Program Office for Australia and the U.S., statement published on 14SEP2021
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison talks about AUKUS and the nuclear sub deal, admits it is about controlling global trade, says it is a “forever partnership” that has been in the works since the 1950’s ANZUS (Australia New Zealand United States) alliance, reveals that Australia’s demands for its military “will only go up” in the near future:
Five Eyes spying operations can be traced back to the end of World War 2, when the leaders of the United States made a (then) secret alliance with the British empire (U.K., Canada, Australia, New Zealand) called the Five Eyes. Five Eyes is now controlling the U.S. NSA!

“This is an exercise evolution of the Rally in the Valley 2020 exercise conducted in West Virginia. Our efforts will prepare Reserve and National Guard units to execute at the speed and range required to take on near-peer adversaries. Additional training included combat airlift as well as multi-capable mobility Airmen who are able to refuel and re-arm aircraft in austere locations with minimal support.”-Major Christopher Acs, 327th Airlift Squadron, U.S. Air Force Reserve (USAFR)

13SEP2021 saw a dramatic opening to wargame Rally in the Rockies 2021; for the first time a C-130J Super Hercules intentionally landed on U.S. Route 287, in the middle of nowhere rural Wyoming (near Rawlings)!
U.S. Air Force Reserve video by Major Ashely Walker, 13SEP2021:
WANG photo by Jacqueline Marshall.
So far, all the news outlets reporting this landing are calling it Highway 287 which is incorrect. It is officially U.S. Route 287 (aka US287). It would be okay if they wrote highway with a lower case ‘h’, but they use an upper case ‘H’ which indicates an official title.
Cowboy State Daily’s quick slo-mo video of landing:

Anybody thinking about the Cold War era movie Red Dawn, supposedly taking place in next-door-from-Wyoming Colorado?

Rally in the Rockies is scheduled to run from September 13th through the 16th. It involves 12 military units from various state National Guards and the USAFR, as well as the Wyoming Department of Transportation. The wargame is preparation for combat operations within the United States, for ‘contested areas’!

Welcome to borderland hell under the new U.S. President, this includes links to local news reports:
U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) launched Operation Allies Welcome, which is actually being carried out by U.S. Northern Command. Locations across the United States (mainly military bases) will be prepped to ‘welcome’ refugees being brought into the country as part of Operation Allies Refuge which I revealed back in July, which also includes refugees from unnamed African countries. The taxpayer funded ‘welcome’ is supposed to include transportation, temporary housing, medical screening, and general support for as many as 50-thousand Afghan refugees at each location! By the way, the Department of Defense doesn’t call them refugees, it calls them “evacuees”.
The Idaho Office of Resettlement reports that for fiscal year 2021 (which ends on 30SEP2021) Afghans are the second most ‘resettled’ group into The Gem State. But that might change for fiscal year 2022, with Operations Allies Refuge and Allies Welcome.

Washington National Guard video by Peter Chang, with interview at the end:
Lightning started the fire on 12JUL2021, as of August 24th it was 45% contained. Evacuation orders have been rescinded.
“The fire was moving at 20-25 mph; the fire traveled a mile and a half in 20 minutes to jump into ‘our’ property. With the pasture field grass that we have out here, that’s how fast it can move. The fire was eating up ground, all we can do was carrel it and defend it from jumping on county land, basically keep it on Army land.”– Steven Coloma, Pōhakuloa Training Area (PTA) Fire and Emergency Services
From July 30th to August 4th, 2021, the Waimea wildfire grew to become the largest in Hawaii’s modern history. Hawaii’s Army National Guard, and the U.S. Army’s 25th Combat Aviation Brigade (CAB), joined the fight.
U.S. Army photo, 31JULY2021.
25th CAB used their CH-47 and HH-60 helicopters:“…the priority was some threatened and endangered species that reside on PTA. Once we got that initial assessment from the PTA firefighters, we started hitting the areas around the threatened and endangered species. That was PTA garrison commander’s number one priority—fire management on federal land, and ensure we saved the threatened and endangered species.”-Major Lee Jones, 3rd Battalion, 25th Aviation Regiment

Armed with Bambi buckets, the Chinook and Black Hawk ‘copters made 268 drops on the fire, more than 169-thousand gallons of water. The Waimea wildfire burned at least 40-thousand acres (16187 hectares).
