Exceptional Failed State: U.S. job losses & store closings 10-12 August 2013. Veteran run military contractor stealing bombs from National Guard? Idaho loses 1500 jobs in one day? More health care cuts blamed on the Federales!

Incomplete list of announced closings and layoffs.

AOL (American On [Off ?] Line) announced they are selling off 400 Patch sites!  This after announcing they will layoff as many as 500 Patch Editors!

California: In Alameda County, the Almeda Health System laid off at least 57 employees at two hospitals, this as AHS is actually adding two more hospitals to its inventory. One of those hospitals was donated by a non-profit health care group (probably done in by Obama Care).  Hospital officials say the layoffs are their attempt to comply with Obama Care!  In Long Beach, the Christian Saint Mary Medical Center laid off 86 employees.  In Redwood City, Perseid Therapeutics ended operations.  59 people unemployed. It’s the result of a takeover by Astellas.  In San Jose, IBM laid off 203 people!  The layoffs were part of IBM’s elimination of 3-thousand jobs World wide!

Florida: In Tampa, Too Big to Jail JP Morgan Chase lays off another 208 people!  That’s on top of the 435 cuts announced in June. The evil bank officials admitted that the home mortgage disaster has reached a point where it’s not worth it for banks to continue stealing people’s homes, so they’re now going after their own employees!

Georgia: In Tucker, Park Pet Retreat shut down. The owner of the doggie daycare center blames a suck ass investor:“I am so very sorry to tell you that the Investor that was brought to me and led me on for a month has backed away from the deal.”   But, apparently some good news; it seems Rita MacCallon has such loyal customers that she’s opened a new doggie daycare under the title Rita’s Pet Retreat.

Idaho: In Boise, Micron Technologies (the World’s 2nd largest DRAM maker) announced it will fire 1500 employees!  It’s the result of Micron taking over Japanese competitor Elpida.  Micron officials say the layoffs will be spread around the World, but a Boise financial consultant, Dave Pesto, said “It appears to be pretty heavy here.”  Micron laid off 2-thousand people in Boise back in 2009!

Illinois: In Chicago, Career Education Corporation laid off another 480 people!  That’s on top of the 900 people laid off since last November!  The company has lost more than a hundred million dollars since last year!

Kansas: Wichita City warned of layoffs.  If city revenues are down, as is expected, they want to layoff 13 employees.

Louisiana: Explo Systems bankrupt, company officials in prison.  They are $3 million in debt, and were even served with an eviction notice by the Army National Guard.  The company was supposed to be disarming and destroying out of date munitions for the Louisiana National Guard.   At least six employees were charged with unlawful storage of explosives, reckless storage of explosives, failure to obtain magazine license, failure to properly mark explosive material,  failure to keep accurate inventory and conspiracy.

New York: In Buffalo, yet another non-profit health care provider, Phoenix Frontier, bankrupt because of the federal government.  The IRS claims the disabilities and mental health service provider failed to pay taxes.  In Levittown, magic Shop closed (the store sign actually has magic spelled with lower case m).

North Carolina: The Agricultural and Technical State University laid off at least 50 employees.  The University of North Carolina at Greensboro laid off an undisclosed amount of employees.  In both cases it’s blamed on state funding cuts, and declining student enrollment.  In Greensboro, Cafe Carolina closed down. The owner blames the suck ass economy: “We really wished, we had the ability to keep it going, but under the current conditions we just can’t.”-Ron Hines

Texas: In Waco, Southern Foods Group ended operations.  150 employees let go!

Vermont: Wood burning stove maker, Vermont Castings, laid off 100 employees! Other layoffs took place in Kentucky and Mexico. The company was taken over by its own management, who decided to slash and burn in the name of consolidation.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) doesn’t count the hundreds of layoffs involving less than 50 people each, in its mass layoff reports. It also doesn’t count all the little ‘mom & pop’ businesses that shut down.

International, U.S.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 07-09 October 2013: Hundreds of people disappeared! More U.S. taxpayers ripped off! Japanese taxpayers give away $13 million! U.S. puppet warlord admits War Crimes! $12 billion oil deal!

Helmand Province: In Greshk District, a suicide car bomber killed two civilians and two cops, four cops wounded.

Maidan Wardak Province: Three villages in Syed Abad District were hit by U.S.-NATO Israeli style home invasions. Reports say explosives were used to access some residential compounds.  Eight people kidnapped, six motorcycles and three cars/trucks destroyed.

Nangarhar Province: In Shirzad District, a major battle resulted in at least 20 Afghan National Army killed, 27 wounded.  A woman and two kids were wounded, and one Mujahid killed.  In Khogiyani District, a ANA soldier was killed by Mujahid sniper.  In Achin District, villagers report that U.S. forces raided a home, killing a husband and wife and their son, and kidnapping their nephew.  In Khogiyani District, reports that 150 villagers have gone missing!  The reports also say whoever took them also took all their personal possessions.

Uruzgan Province: In Chinartu District, reports that for the past 15 days villages have been hit by Israeli style home invasions by U.S. led government forces.  Mosques and schools have been targeted as well.  Dozens of people beaten and kidnapped.

Zabul Province: In Qalat City, people reported that a security guard working for U.S. forces at Qalat airbase started shooting at U.S. forces in a guard tower.  People don’t know what happened to the guard but think many U.S. personnel were shot.  The airbase was locked down and no Afghan employees were allowed in or out.

Presidential candidate and war criminal,  Abdul Rashid Dostum, admitted his role in murdering fellow Afghans by apologizing for it: “It is the time that we should apologize for the Afghan people who were sacrificed due to our policies. I am taking the first step, and apologize for the people who suffered from the violence and civil war in the country.”

President Hamid Karzai called a grand meeting (Loya Jirga) to decide the fate of the Obama regime’s demands for a new military pact.  Some Afghan senators are refusing to take part.  Karzai also blamed U.S. led NATO for making Afghanistan insecure: “On the security front the entire NATO exercise was one that caused Afghanistan a lot of suffering, a lot of loss of life, and no gains because the country is not secure.”-BBC interview

Despite dealing with natural and man made disasters, the Japanese government gave $13-million USD of their taxpayers’ money to Afghanistan.  Actually it was given to United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS), which will then give it to the Afghan Independent Directorate of Local Governance.  This is already on top of $21-million Japan gave directly to the Independent Directorate of Local Governance.

The United States Air Force has given the Afghan Air Force two brand new C-130 transport aircraft.  They’re part of a planned total delivery of 24 C-130s.  The U.S. taxpayer is forking over hundreds of million of dollars to pay for the aircraft.  Originally the USAF was going to give Italian C27s to Afghanistan, but after already spending $600-million on the deal it was decided to go with C-130s.  U.S. taxpayers are also giving Afghanistan recon drones and 20 Super Tucano training aircraft.

While the U.S. government continues to spend taxpayer’s money on weapons for other countries, the Pentagon halted death gratuity payments for families who had sons or daughters killed in Afghanistan.  The excuse was the supposed government shutdown, which actually affected only 18% of government spending.

The Afghan Ministry of Mines announced $12-billion worth of oil contracts.  The lucky winners are Turkish Petroleum International Company (TPIC) and Dragon Oil from United Arab Emirates.

“There is a bloody war happening, and no one is talking about it!”-Ahmad Majidyar,  American Enterprise Institute and adviser to the U.S. Army

“Bush stopped talking about Afghanistan almost immediately after he shifted focus to Iraq.  Afghanistan was truly a forgotten war when Obama took over and it became it again after the surge was over.  The result is the public really has no idea what’s going on there.”-A. Trevor Thrall,  George Mason University

“….a lot of Afghanistan’s future depends on whether Western nations feel guilty enough about the mess they made to stay involved.”-Graeme Smith, International Crisis Group

“…we’re tired of it…”:-U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Mike Toole, in Kabul

07 October was the 12th year of the U.S. occupation of Afghanistan.  I found it amazing that the pro-occupiers interviewed on main streamer U.S. TV continue to say the U.S. has to stay in order to get the “remnants” of al Qaeda.  Really, after 12 years of massive repression by the U.S. there’s still “remnants” of al Qaeda?   Most people would considered that a big Fail!

The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) blamed the United States for turning Afghanistan into a narco-state.  The UNODC said the U.S. has done nothing to create an economy that is not reliant on illegal drugs or corruption.  Under international law, if you invade and occupy a country you are legally responsible for everything that takes place during your occupation.

17-18 July 2013: MORE PROOF THE UNITED STATES COMMITS WAR CRIMES! PROOF THAT WOMEN ARE WORTH MORE THAN MEN IN AFGHANISTAN!

“Like other hospital systems, VA isn’t immune from fatal human error. But what the department does seem to be immune from is meaningful accountability.”-Jeff Miller, State Representative of the House Committee on Veteran’s Affairs

“The office of the Inspector General released a report on an investigation they performed in May of 2013 on three deaths that occurred in our emergency department over one year ago. The physician involved in the care of two of the patients referenced in the report no longer works at our medical center.”-Christopher Marino, Memphis VA Medical Center Chief of Staffs

Exceptional Failed State: Senior National Guard NCO targeted federal martial law loving officer?

24 October 2013 (16:33 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/02 Aban 1391/20 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

“It concerns me today, what’s happened all over the world, Washington D.C., that Washington Naval Yard, you never think something like this will happen on your watch, in good ol’ Tennessee here, but it did happen.”-Major General Max Haston, Tennessee National Guard

Tennessee Army National Guard officials have confirmed the National Guard recruiter who was fired was a Sergeant First Class (E7).   He allegedly shot another senior NCO ( a Sergeant Major E9) and an officer (a Major O4).

National Guard NCOs around the country have been unofficially reporting that many commanding officers are pro-federal police state-ists.  I can tell you from my NG experience that most senior officer positions in supposedly state run NG are held by federal Regular Army officers!

Exceptional Failed State: Multiple shots fired throughout Memphis, Tennessee! Christians killed!

24 October 2013 (16:24 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/02 Aban 1391/20 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

In Memphis, Tennessee, multiple shots fired being reported.  Three people shot near the Greater Community Temple Church in North Memphis. One person killed, two wounded.

Five gunshots reported near Central High School in Memphis.  One man arrested in that case.

The shootings come on the same day a fired National Guard recruiter shot fellow guardsman at the Paul R. Summers Armory, near Memphis.  The shootings also come as news reports said investigations into the disappearance of 63 AR-15 semi-auto civilian market rifles (on 14 October) are now focusing on Memphis.

Exceptional Failed State: Cops thought National Guard shooting was a “drill”! Did not happen on USN base, yet federales have seized National Guard Armory!

24 October 2013 (15:07 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/02 Aban 1391/20 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

“We were kinda hoping it was gonna be a drill when we first got the call, but you know….”-Rita Stanbach, Millington Police Chief

Live WMCTV reporter says shooting involving Tennessee Army National Guard members did not happen on U.S. Navy base.   It happened at the Paul R. Summers Armory, next to the USN base.

However, different reporters with the same WMCTV say the armory is on USN property.

Local police told reporters they thought it was a “drill”.   The National Guard armory is now under federal control.  Police are now saying they don’t know what caused the shooting.  Police say they got a call at 12:33 hours reporting the shooting.  At 12:45 hours personnel on the USN base were told to “shelter in place”.   WREG reported the shooting took place at 12:47 hours!

National Guard officials are supposedly going to hold a press conference.

Exceptional Failed State: Truck load of AR-15s stolen! False Flag Op? Tennessee connection!

24 October 2013 (14:26 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/02 Aban 1391/20 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

A truck hauling a load of semi-automatic AR-15 rifles arrived in Louisiana minus one pallet load of AR-15s!   Officials now believe 63 AR-15s went missing in Memphis, Tennessee.  The guns were discovered missing on 14 October, two days after the shipment arrived in Louisiana.

Four people have been arrested in Louisiana, but supposedly they are refusing to tell cops were the guns are!  One of those arrested was a security guard.  One man was charged only with possession of stolen items.  Police have not explained why they think the men are connected to the stolen AR-15s.

Main streamer news media are reporting the AR-15s are “high powered” weapons which is BS.  The AR-15 uses 5.56mm (.223 caliber) ammo, which is not high powered when compared to most ammo used for hunting, like 7mm, 7.62mm (.308 caliber) and definitely not when compared to .30-06 caliber.

I still don’t understand why the general gun owning public is so enamored with the AR-15, it’s a piece-o-crap for the money when compared to the much simpler to use and maintain semi-auto Ruger Mini-14 (which uses the same ammo).

Federal ATF officials say they are considering the missing AR-15s a “crime of opportunity”, not terrorism.

Exceptional Failed State: National Guard shooter suffering “medical issue”!

24 October 2013 (14:02 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/02 Aban 1391/20 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

Live video feed reveals the reason why I saw an ambulance streak by after news conference.  Local news reporters overheard saying fired National Guard recruiter suffering “medical issue” while in federal military police custody!   They say the shooter is refusing to go in ambulance to local hospital.

Exceptional Failed States: Federales seize Tennessee National Guard facility on USN base!

24 October 2013 (13:55 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/02 Aban 1391/20 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

Despite local news reports that the lockdown has been lifted at the Naval Support Activity Mid-South base, live video shows increasing federales (pronounced the Spanish way) presence at the USN facility leased to Tennessee Army National Guard.

USMC and USN police are assisting federales and local police in blocking roads to facility (Pat Thompson Facility?).  A large trailer Command Post is being set up in front of parking lot.  It appears that guardsmen are not being allowed to leave, many are milling about in the parking lot.
