Foreword in German:




Hallo Freunde,
mit all der 'News', intelligente Leute sehen die Gefahr, dass sehr gut in unseren Städten kommen konnte auch in diesem Jahr von 2017, egal mit allen guten Absichten, weil das böse Männer und Frauen vom Bösen, gewalttätigen Organisationen könnten sehr gut schüren große Unruhen in den städtischen Gebieten, mit kommenden Mangel an Nahrung, und das Wohlergehen der Menschen, die arbeiten könnte - aber nicht zu arbeiten, und illegale Ausländer in unserem Land zu Beute schleichen, stehlen, und unser Reichtum/Vorteile saugen, illegal. Es ist die Wahrheit, auch wenn die Lügen 'Fake news" im TV sagen anders es tut uns leid…..
Ich mag die Deutschen, und Deutschland, aber sie haben ihre eigenen Probleme und Herausforderungen zu lösen, auch. Beten Sie, dass Gott alle Christen jetzt in dieser entscheidenden Zeit zu stärken.

Hi  Friends,
    I guess that... not only does the "cream always float to the top,"  but there is also a "Priority" in life, and some things must be said, read, and understood.   I know that some of my readers probably don't care to hear me share the Bible so much,  but it is the ONE, TRUE, SURE,  THING, in the world that is stable, real, unerring and proof positive in  a real Christian's life.   Christianity is not a 'religion,'  but a way of Life !   And if people and nations are willing to lay down/ sacrifice their lives for some idea, or mindset ---- so can Christians !   And they do EVERY DAY !   And what a huge sin committed by Obama and his ilk,  disallowing Christians sanctuary in our country -- while he purposely let Islamic terrorists come and in plunder our national treasures !    The Bible says, plainly,  that God sees all these terrible sins, and He will call to account all those to spill innocent blood,  especially His children and servants !   Be very much afraid -- all you Christ- haters !  The God of the KJV Bible will surely visit you all with Judgment !!  
        I am but a poor, old, simple, servant of the Most High God, and some call Him,  Jehovah,  Yahweh,  YHVH, Father God, etc.   His only begotten Son is Jesus Christ, or the Word, through which all things were created.   See:  John 1: 1.    And there is also the Holy Spirit, part of the triune God Head.  


As we all know,  President Trump inherited  a huge mess,  a cesspool of  hateful, lawless, Left Wing, buns and also anarchists that want to pull down our country, culture, civilization and order/ structure, right now !   From my past blog posts,  I named people like George Soros, a filthy Billionaire, who continues to feed huge drops of money to most of the Leftists Orgs, Democrats and Liberal, punks, who march, protect everything good and noble, burn, trash, destroy, pillage and even murder our LEO's !   [LEO= Law Enforcement Officers-  Police, etc.]    So,  it is evident that our Police Force just cannot handle all the riots and lawlessness in our countries hot spots in the big, corrupt cities.   Therefore, our POTUS, Pres.  Trump is forced to tap our Military to keep order and civility in our country, now.   It's just a sad, sad, state of affairs,  and the Left Wing, Dims, and Socialists won't even give Trump a fair chance at helping America get back on her feet !  
      Ha!  Remember what Obama said, gleefully, boasting:   "Elections have consequences.   We  won."  
    Pres. Trump tried to be nice, cordial, respectful, kind,  but since the Left Wing dogs won't even give him a chance to get started,  He will now play a game of "Hard Ball !"   Hey!  "Elections have consequences.   We won !"  --Remember ?   What's good for the goose is good for the gander.  And when you mess with a Bull -- you will get the horn !  --As we used to say in the Army...   


Well, a very kind lady came over yesterday to help me out a little bit, and also made a great beef stew in my Crock Pot, and so I will enjoy some more of it, today !   Praise the Lord.  


Now, Friends,  the reason I posted  an article like this is to remind you all to "Prepare Now!"   You all know the drill.  Take positive action now,  today !
    Personally,  I am setting my sails for a slightly different heading starting today.   To trim my finances even more, and help some friends more so, and put our minds together to figure out better ways to survive, and thrive.   God is our partner, too, in this struggle, and final lap in our race.    I am going to be watching my spending even more, right now, and learn to live on less.  More water and baloney.... LOL !  Also sending a letter to my attorney to tweak my wishes and directives  if I die too soon, to help special friends, etc.  
      Watch out for the icy roads, please.


Warm Regards,
Tommy Schuckman

There will be war in the streets of America. Things have been engineered that way.

The scenarios are many, the issues are complex. The current anger from the left, who are violently protesting against President Trump, is just one aspect of it.

But the Pentagon and the U.S. national security structure is increasingly looking towards the shifting demographics around the globe – people have moved from rural areas, and shifted into cities. Where ever conflict stirs, there will be a need for military and SWAT response to the call. Entire cities will be locked down; door to door sweeps will often have violent ends.

Baghdad could be brought home to the streets of America, and the military already knows it.

The powers that be are deeply concerned about the unfolding situations with migrants, illegal immigrants, potential terrorists, political factions, violent protests, arson and riots.

Increasingly, they are training for and expecting a homegrown conflict that will call for them to restore order in a major cities – and even hunt down suspects block to block, like in the Boston Marathon bombing incident, while making some significant infringement of our civil liberties.
During the past several years, there have been reports about unannounced urban warfare drills in major U.S. cities, sometimes in coordination with major events; there have also been military training scenarios that have maintained a consistent theme of civil unrest, economic breakdown and widespread riots.
As Intellihub reported:

For years the alternative media has warned about the US military possibly being used against the American people in a time of economic collapse or any sort of martial law scenario.
Drills such as Vigilant Guard 2010 have brought widespread attention to the fact that portions of our own military are training to take on crowds of American citizens demanding food and Constitutional rights in a time of crisis.
Now, a new release by the website Public Intelligence, once again confirms that as recently as February and March of 2012, US troops at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington were conducting training scenarios for a civil disturbance domestic quick reaction force.
A series of photos of the drills shows US troops with crowd control riot shields on the opposite side of actors portraying what can only be described as American citizens.

What do the elite know that we don’t?
Now, a major military scholar is calling for the creation of “megacities combat units” – a proposal that is a major and drastic departure from warfare of the past, which has been designed away from cities. Now, military and paramilitary units, as well as local law enforcement, much engage the population itself – with all the unpredictability afforded by a real life, complex situation filled with combatants, non-combatants and friendlies behind any and all doors, etc.
With a heightened focus on terrorism and reigning in undocumented immigrants, there will be a tendency, if we are not careful, for a heightened militarized and police state atmosphere to arise – both at home, and in everyplace that they take the fight.
Major John Spencer, a former Ranger Instructor and scholar at West Point’s Modern War Institute called for an armed unit ready for megacities deployment in an op-ed:

Every year, more and more of the world’s population moves into cities. The number of megacities is growing exponentially. Both of these global patterns and their inevitable consequences for military operations are well documented. Yet we still do not have units that are even remotely prepared to operate in megacities. If we want to find success on the urban battlefields the US Army will inevitably find itself fighting on in the future, that needs to change.
Throughout history, military forces either sought to avoid or simply had no need to engage in urban combat. Most military doctrine, and the strategic theory it is built upon, encourages land forces to bypass, lay siege to, or—if required—isolate and slowly clear cities from the outside in. The great armies of the world have historically fought for cities rather than in cities, a distinction with a significant difference. In cases where military forces had no choice but to operate within cities, the environment, almost without exception, proved very costly in both military and civilian casualties. Today, many armies have accepted that global population growth and urbanization trends will increasingly force military operations into crowded cities, and military forces must therefore be capable of conducting the full range of operations in large, dense urban areas.
Army Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Milley recently remarked that the Army “has been designed, manned, trained and equipped for the last 241 years to operate primarily in rural areas.” But that is about to change. Milley continued:
[…]
The conclusions of the SSG research are clear: megacities are unavoidable, they are potentially the most challenging environment the Army has ever faced, and the Army is unprepared to operate in them.
[…]
One ongoing military study of megacities is the NATO Urbanization Project. […] In the project’s most recent experiment, the NATO team conducted a wargame to determine the capabilities needed to achieve the goals of three likely missions in 2035: response to mass migration, natural disaster, and inner-city turmoil. Within these missions, the wargame specified that a brigade conduct three operations in a megacity—joint forcible entry, major combat, and subsequent stability operations—without unacceptable levels of military or civilian casualties.
[…]
Of course, urban warfare is not exclusively a future phenomenon. Much has been learned from urban battles in recent history: the Siege of Sarajevo (1992–95); the Battle of Mogadishu (1993); Russian operations in Grozny (1994–95 and 1999–2000); US operations in Baghdad (2003) and Fallujah (2004); Lebanese operations in Nahr al-Bared, Lebanon (2007); and the Second Battle of Donetsk (2014–15). But the broad lessons of these cases have yet to truly inform Army training for urban combat, which for most units consists mainly of tactical training (e.g., room clearing drills with four-man teams). The Army would be much better served by the creation of an entire unit dedicated to preparing to operate in dense urban environments, particularly megacities.

Any way you slice it, the military and the national security infrastructure are watching for cracks in the system.
People are at their wits end, and many are on the edge of poverty – and for many, it just won’t take much more to set them loose, and let riots erupt. Whether the system wants those to spread, or wants to suppress and contain them, they know they are coming.
Population pressures, and clashing groups within growing city centers are creating more problems, and compounding old ones.
If the economic stability of a given region were to give way, nearly every megacity would spiral out of control and descend into absolute madness – whether or this continent or any other.
via Nicholas West:

 The following Pentagon video was featured by The Intercept and portrays the chilling atmosphere presented by sheer numbers and those who would enter such environments in the pursuit of order.

Drills such as “Unified Quest” run yearly by the U.S. Army took a sharper turn in 2014 toward addressing the problem of combat in megacities – defined as cities with more than 10 million people, of which there already are nearly 25 and projected to total near 40 by the year 2025. The Pentagon’s own solicitation early last year called “Thunderstorm Spiral” was a request for “help from technological innovators to take on the future of warfare.” This appeared to indicate that in addition to boots on the ground, an additional pervasive centralized intelligence apparatus would be needed to properly plan for troop movements through such dense but vast environments that also would be made up of networks underground.

Rather than trying to guess what specific crisis may spill over into violence, or bring things to a stand still in traffic or electronic commerce, just consider the piling pressure that is growing in the techno hubs and swelling urban population centers.

New York, Boston, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston and dozens of enormous cities around the world are all completely vulnerable. Depending upon the political situation, unrest, violence or whatever else could spread across the entire Eastern half of the U.S., and the entire country could face collapse as it has never before known it. It is only a question of timing and circumstance.

Preppers should take all this into account. Modern life may make a connection to the city unavoidable prior to the collapse, but being insufficiently away from major urban centers is definitely a liability in times of crisis. Even outlying neighbors can be subject to looting, natural disaster, grid shutdown, riots, and many other situations. Make arrangements to shelter away from the city, and make sure you can get there safely and quickly when something goes down.

Do not rely on the services or goods of these cities, and get out while you still can. There are some very major crises brewing right now. They are preparing; you should, too.
