Sorry, forgot to add another question about this incident. Why is he being charged with : An Iraqi man charged with detonating a homemade explosive device outside an Arizona Social Security Administration office building pleaded not guilty on Tuesday.
Abdullatif Ali Aldosary was indicted last week by a federal grand jury on charges of maliciously damaging federal property by means of explosives and being a felon in possession of a firearm. ----------- I would think this would fit into some sort of "act of terrorism".

QUOTE One of the more disturbing aspects of the new procedures that govern military command on the ground in the event of a civil disturbance relates to authority. Not only does it fail to define what circumstances would be so severe that the president’s authorization is “impossible,” it grants full presidential authority to “Federal military commanders.” According to the defense official, a commander is defined as follows: “Somebody who’s in the position of command, has the title commander. And most of the time they are centrally selected by a board, they’ve gone through additional schooling to exercise command authority.”
As it is written, this “commander” has the same power to authorize military force as the president in the event the president is somehow unable to access a telephone. (The rule doesn’t address the statutory chain of authority that already exists in the event a sitting president is unavailable.) In doing so, this commander must exercise judgment in determining what constitutes, “wanton destruction of property,” “adequate protection for Federal property,” “domestic violence,” or “conspiracy that hinders the execution of State or Federal law,” as these are the circumstances that might be considered an “emergency.” --- The U.S. military is prohibited from intervening in domestic affairs except where provided under Article IV of the Constitution in cases of domestic violence that threaten the government of a state or the application of federal law. This provision was further clarified both by the Insurrection Act of 1807 and a post-Reconstruction law known as the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 (PCA). The Insurrection Act specifies the circumstances under which the president may convene the armed forces to suppress an insurrection against any state or the federal government. Furthermore, where an individual state is concerned, consent of the governor must be obtained prior to the deployment of troops. The PCA—passed in response to federal troops that enforced local laws and oversaw elections during Reconstruction—made unauthorized employment of federal troops a punishable offense, thereby giving teeth to the Insurrection Act.
Together, these laws limit executive authority over domestic military action. Yet Monday’s official regulatory changes issued unilaterally by the Department of Defense is a game-changer.
The stated purpose of the updated rule is “support in Accordance With the Posse Comitatus Act,” but in reality it undermines the Insurrection Act and PCA in significant and alarming ways. The most substantial change is the notion of “civil disturbance” as one of the few “domestic emergencies” that would allow for the deployment of military assets on American soil. http://www.longislandpress.com/2013...-effect

Do you know what the word "training" means? Or are you're suggesting our military currently deals with "security at mass events" and they're going to let the Russians assist them? Then you wonder why people think your elevator doesn't go all the way to the top.
Just out of curiosity, how many conspiracy theories have you believed over the last year?

QUOTE You're wondering if us sane folk has any info on some garbage from one of your goofy ass conspiracy sites? Um, I asked if that link was an official Russian government website. QUOTE Is that a real Russian government website and document? Are you still having problems with reading comprehension? As far as I can tell it is an official Russian government website, but I'm not 100% sure, so that is why I asked if anyone else knows. And if it is a real official government website, I'd really like to know more about that Russian-US partnership. I would like to know how Russia can send us "security" at mass events... and what sorts of mass events? Russian military people? Yeah, I'd like to know more about this. Had no clue about this Rosalind... would like to know more. Here's what's curious...the US is upset about Snowden leaks...at the same time FEMA or the US basically signs up Russia to provide security at some events What is the UN now in charge of cross-training expeditions !!
