How to covertly train paramilitaries, censor the press, ban unions, employ terrorists, conduct warrantless searches, suspend habeas corpus, conceal breaches of the Geneva Convention and make the population love it

JULIAN ASSANGE (investigative editor)
Monday June 15, 2008

Wikileaks has released a sensitive 219 page US military counterinsurgency manual. The manual, Foreign Internal Defense Tactics Techniques and Procedures for Special Forces (1994, 2004), may be critically described as "what we learned about running death squads and propping up corrupt government in Latin America and how to apply it to other places". Its contents are both history defining for Latin America and, given the continued role of US Special Forces in the suppression of insurgencies, including in Iraq and Afghanistan, history making.

The leaked manual, which has been verified with military sources, is the official US Special Forces doctrine for Foreign Internal Defense or FID.

On contraire my friend!
Many do know.
I see nothing new, and used in the proper manner I see nothing wrong with it!
Like any weapon of war it does have the potential to be misused however.
There are many secrets in the military that civilians do not need to know!

LRRP,
One type of mission we would train for was a search and destroy mission.
We would travel far behind enemy lines, concealed, stripped of all unit insignia and ID, with the intent to search out our objective, kill everyone, ("Everyone" dead bodies cant talk!) gather what intelligence we deemed important, destroy all equipment, and leave the enemy guessing who was responsible!
I often wonder if we would have captured Bin Laden by now had this tactic been used in Afghanistan against terrorist training camps, instead of announcing to the world and him, that we were coming. Giving him time to hide.

Im sure it must have been suggested!
Bush is an idiot!

The media in general bear the responsibility of hiding the truth and working for the Administration for their own interests .
Sometimes they knowingly broadcast propaganda videos ......, false news .......etc !.

WELL THE DEMS STARTED THE REALLY STARED A USELESS WAR IN VIET NAM , IT TOOK A REPUBLICAN TO GET US OUT . IRAQ AND AFGANASTAN IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT THING . the mainstream media depends on anything negative they can come up with , true or made up . clinton could have got rid of bin laden . 9\ 11 might not have happened .
