I know I'm still pretty new here but I've done some research involving ISIS and found some other mind blowing news about events currently unfolding and scheduled to unfold in the near future. Has anyone read up on the scheduled military "drill" titled Jade Helm 15? There's a ton of added speculations on the real purpose for this drill but this much is true, The military will be kicking off a real life training exercise on civilians on a very large scale. Here is a portion of an article posted hours ago. Is anyone else a little unnerved by this or should we just disregard it as conspiracy theorists doing what they do best?


Code-named “Jade Helm 15,” the combined two-month military operation will be conducted July 15 to Sept. 15 and involve certain regions in seven Western states, including Arizona. Approximately 1,200 troops will be participating in the operation, embracing units of Army Green Berets, Navy Seals, Air Force Special Operations and regular Army infantry. Apparently, the Marine Corps wasn’t invited.

Interestingly, it is thought United Nations assistance in the exercise is also a possibility. The Jade Helm logo, depicting two crossed arrows over a vertical sword, a transparent klomp in the center (a klomp is a Dutch wooden shoe) and inscribed with the slogan “Master the Human Domain,” seems odd in a home front military training exercise intended to familiarize troops with strategies and tactics of nonfriendly forces.

Suspiciously missing from the Jade Helm logo is the American flag and bald eagle, typically representative of the U.S. military. This may be the first time American troops have embarked upon an operation wearing a campaign patch emblazoned with the menacing image of a wooden shoe from a foreign country.

To help calm public concerns of the exercise, U.S. Army Special Operations Command has conducted a series of information sessions disclosing certain operational details. However, not everyone has been comforted by the Jade Helm publicity explanations. In fact, until existence of the operation was leaked, most people had never heard of it, including governors and representatives of the states involved in the exercise.

Texas Governor Greg Abbot recently ordered the Texas State Guard to monitor the military, saying, “During the training operation, it is important that Texans know their safety, constitutional rights, private property rights and civil liberties will not be infringed.”

On May 5, 2015, U.S. Rep. Louie Gohmert, of Texas, said his “office has been inundated with calls referring to the Jade Helm 15 military exercise,” and that people were becoming alarmed it could be a prelude to “modern-day martial law” and an excuse for President Obama to remain in office past the expiration of his term.

Adding to the skepticism of the Jade Helm operation, actor Chuck Norris voiced his opinion on May 4 when he wrote in his column for the WorldNetDaily that “Whatever Jade Helm 15 actually is, I think it is more than coincidental that the FBI director just confessed in February that the presence of ISIS can be felt in all 50 states of the United States and that the Pentagon is suddenly running its biggest military training exercise with every branch of the military across seven Southwestern states.”

The secrecy of the exercise has provided a seemingly inexhaustible supply of fuel for conspiracy theorists. Practically every conceivable political intrigue has been attached to the “real intent” of the Jade Helm exercise — from the imposition of mandatory gun confiscation, to rounding up and imprisoning defiant citizens, to dividing the United States into several distinct regions, each governed by an unelected federal bureaucrat, to the eventual implementation of a One World Government, to Obama proclaiming himself king. The list is lengthy and sometimes ludicrous, but not altogether beyond the realm of possibility.
