Downtown Tampa echoed with the sounds of action Wednesday as an international special operations exercise took place.

 

This was a training drill in Tampa Florida. This is the first time that these drills were run in broad day light for all to see. Usually they run these drills in secret, under the cover of darkness.

 

It’s amazing that peole are watching the collapse of America’s economy, yet most have no idea what will follow this collapse.

 

 

 

Conducted outside the Tampa Convention Center Wednesday, residents looked on as service members from every branch of the U.S. military ran drills alongside commandos from Belgium, Canada, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Jordan, Netherlands, Norway, Peru, Poland and Thailand.

 

Local newspapers worked to relieve worried residents prior to the exercise, assuring them that the sound of gunshots and low-flying military helicopters was only part of a drill.

 

“If you see military helicopters flying over downtown Tampa next Tuesday, it’s not a sign that we are under attack by the Russians, the North Koreans or the New World Order,” said The Tampa Tribune.

 

According to the training scenario, commandos were tasked with rescuing Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn from an “insurgent village” held by “violent extremists.” Helicopters, boats, ground mobility vehicles, and commandos unloaded blank rounds as a 14-man team worked to locate the mayor.

 

“This was different,” one participant said. “This was a first for me. Usually no one sees what we do.”

 

Loud pyrotechnics were used as four snipers on the roof of Tampa General Hospital surveyed the mayor’s rescue.

  • Fluorida has always been the bootlicker capital.

    All those Uncle Thoms worshipping their bought and paid for death squads.

    USA USA USA!!!!

    Slaves all of them!

  • Looks like more of your tax dollars being spent wisely huh? Toys-R-Us must have a free sign in the window and police agencies have taken full advantage of it….

  • ““If you see military helicopters flying over downtown Tampa next Tuesday, it’s not a sign that we are under attack by the Russians, the North Koreans or the New World Order,”

    I hope it is not the North Koreans. Can you imagine that superhero, Kim Whomever, leading a group of N. Korean commandoes and attacking Florida? The blood runs cold.

  • ichabodcrane

    The US military is full of guys who have no regard for the constitution and can’t wait for marshall law!

  • If they need to practice their skills there are plenty of make believe towns on Military bases so they do not need to endanger citizens with this crap! This seems to me to be intimidation and it is not working.

    • Intimidation? Yeah right those people where licking the boots clean.

  • Dustdevil

    With luck, they’ll Molon Labe your ‘establishment’ posterior soon. Then you can tell your camp guards how privileged you were to work with them, before you were gassed by them.

    Conspiracy nut? Yeah, explain that to the Jewish-Germans of Hitler’s reign (or the Aryan Germans in the end, who he ALSO executed for challenging him). Just because you are in denial, does NOT discredit a healthy dose of skepticism.

    I haven’t seen any terrorist running around Tampa lately that an 18-nation Special Forces SWAT team was required to rescue anyone. Have you? We’ve put TRILLIONS into ‘anti-terrorism’ so far, and the only terrorist we’ve really seen is the D.C. goons who’ve destroyed Libya (another overthrow recently), Egypt (on the brink of Civil War), Syria (where we sided with Al-Queda and armed them) and the American People (where we’ve more than doubled our national debt in less than 6-years.

    Sorry, but I’m looking into the eyes of evil – and it just happens to be running our nation. Why worry about them doing Special Forces tactical drills on our soil for familiarization efforts? BECAUSE HITLER DID THE EXACT SAME PLAYBOOK!

    • Bravo Dustdevil ! Spot on

    • CHESS: PUTIN 6-0 OBAMA

      Signs that America is going down.
      Where can we join the Russian and China army whom will invade and take over America?
      Does anybody know?
      I’ll be the first to join because I want to put every American idiot into the FEMA camps.

    • CHESS: PUTIN 6-0 OBAMA

      Dust devil is stupid if you ask me. Real stupid comment.

    • Yes

  • Was the mayor be held by the same “violent extremists.” that backed the BLM down in Bunkervill, NV???
    This is training and would have been the next step in Bunkervill :!:

  • Being an attendee was great. Did you feel as though everyone there would follow an authorities order to restore order during civil unrest ? Can you ask yourself why the civil unrest , first ? What exactly is Disinformation ? Unlawful orders, disarmament to protect the peace?
    I am seeing the highest crime rates where the citizens can’t arm and defend themselves.
    I get nervous with multinational troops on our shores irregardless of ‘Official Reasons Given’…
    Skepticism is a good thing. If it makes you think out-loud, great. To take a second look at what is happening on a larger scale, even better.
    Over all we have a great country, however with the hotspots around D.C. and Detroit, or Chicago, or just the special little areas that regular people know to stay out of, there is an educational problem not being addressed correctly. And I don’t just mean school. I mean the people with the ability to place the resources and workers, the protection for those resources. To pick up the pieces and make the hard decisions before it is too late.
    Just doesn’t seem to be there.
    And don’t say there is no money, just look at where we send and how much there is.
    Having the threat of the UN sending in help that obama-san seems okay with, all the presidential directives he is signing willy nilly .. is just another distraction that our elected officials are using to not do there jobs.
    I digress, I am sure there was a public show of good faith. Just always look at good intentions from your government with a bit of skepticism.

    • Good training for the troops
      Good phsy-ops on the civilians

      A really good lose – lose for everyone

      Woooops!

      I was supposed to say win – win —- i think — no wait i shouldn’t think — duh i donnno any more george — obama — soros — internationalist elites — whooops i thin i dunnnn-it again — oh dear me

  • I bet that mayor will get re-elected by those zombies watching the U.N. taking over their land.
    Only zombies would be able to endure this war like intimidating abuse, any normal human would
    instantly & naturally reject this abuse, any evolved human would instinctively revolt automatically
    to such intrusion & technology invasion.
    You all are just cattle, ripe for the picking. You belief anything told by anything that wears a uniform or claims authority. You are all already dead.

  • Not the first time they’ve done it, Tampa did it during the 2012 RNC. Military has no damn business whatsoever operating on the street like that since it violates Posse Comitatus but they don’t give a crap. They know they’re in violation of the law yet they do it. http://www.infowars.com/black-helicopters-special-forces-train-for-rnc-police-state/

  • United Nations boots on the ground in the U.S.? What’s good about that? MolonLabeChris seems very foolish to me. People have been reporting (not news sources, real people) UN military troops doing maneuvers in the Everglades, is this a secret? There are far too many low info voters and citizens in this country. :idea:

  • I can see the need for specops exercises and the need to train. The issues have are the following: it was done before a “live audience”( the intent of which is to send a message to the observers); it involved spec opns troops from other nations (I’m be paranoid but I have my issues why those personnel were even there); and the information presented provides a lot of information of what “our people” are capable of and how we operate , a no-no the Army I was in(the real bad guys can then take defensive/offensive countermeasures accordingly if they know what to expect ). Finally, all this, in addition to the information of the last several mos of the militarization of police in this country. Add this video and that information and what does that tell you of what may happen? By the way, it isn’t an issue of tinhat conspiracies, it’s an issue in a belief in Black Swan events. One final thing, the history books tell us, there were German military advisors in the Soviet Union (it gave those advisors some good experience like the exercise depicted in the article), training troops prior to World War II. Not long after, Germany invaded the Soviet Union.

  • Unfortunately Molon you don’t know your a$$ from a hole in the wall. This was nothing more than a bunch of rookies getting together and showing off. I’m not impressed at all.

  • THIS actually is NOT a first. IT has been going on in California all winter. THE people stand on the shores in those pictures also and clap and get all excited.

    THE purpose of the daytime operations is to get used to seeing SWAT teams on the streets, like after Katrina and also in Boston.

    REMEMBER when COPS first came on TV and a warrant needed to be served??? TWO plain clothes detectives quietly approached a house in broad daylight and knocked on the door and took the perp to jail???

    Twenty five years later they show up with 30 SWAT team members and several paramilitary vehicles and a handful of barking dogs and they mow over the fences in the yard of RENTAL houses and rip the doors off with paramilitary vehicles and storm the house in the middle of the nite. IF you have a dog they shoot it and then head to the children’s rooms with machine guns drawn and drag everyone out of their beds onto the front lawn. REMEMBER these are cops not military BUT who would KNOW the difference????

    THE reason they are doing all this is to get people used to seeing SWAT teams in their neighborhoods so when they show up to take them to the FEMA concentration camps, thinking these are the GOOD GUYS.

    :shock:

  • i love film Loud pyrotechnics were used as four snipers on the roof of Tampa General Hospital surveyed the mayor’s rescue. thank you Josey Wales

  • Nope, not a REAL invasion, just a practice invasion.

  • I feel much better knowing that foreign troops in Florida were only practicing how they will invade my country.

  • Does this not violate posed comitatus?
