No Live Ammo for Marines

Folks, this is surely the truth.  I have had many instances told to me over the years such as this.  The latest told to me personally was a recruiting sergeant, two of them, advised me they went to Macdonia  to “peace keep in blue berets”  and, as they reported in, the guys they were replacing did and said the following: 

Taking off their pistol belts they handed them to the replacement troops. They said: “Here’s your pistol belt with two ammo pouches (containing 4 magazines with 30 rounds each). This is all the ammo you’re gonna get for a year, so don’t start any firefights”.

Folks, 120 rounds is not even the “basic load.” It was once 300 rounds per man (at the beginning of the day)  in Vietnam for US troops fighting for US commanders.  Three hundred rounds per soldier (more if he wanted to carry it ) with unlimited ammo boxes real close or in by chopper in, hopefully, 30 minutes!!

I guess it’s a real let down now. YOU DO NOT get into any firefight with 120 rounds!  WHAT DO YOU DO???!!!  You just hunker down and wait for your DROS!!  That’s  your Date of Rotation from OverSeas!!!  Otherwise, if you stir up trouble (or try to “peace keep”) with armed nationals or gun toting insurgents,  you get yourself killed.  

There are more recent horror stories that I have yet to put together in a serial stream. WE are doomed. I’ve been telling you FOR YEARS  -  the N.W.O. is trying to kill, destroy, demoralize or denigrate all US military forces!  The US miolitary is under UN command and have been since 1995 when Clinton signed PDD 25…

Ambassador Anne Patterson Marines were not allowed to have live ammo at US Embassy in Egypt. Intelligence had 7 day warning before embassy attacks.  These reports bring disgrace on America.  Freebeacon.com:  REPORTS: No Live Ammo for Marines Marine blogs say U.S. embassy did not authorize service members to carry ammo U.S. Marines defending the American embassy in Egypt were not permitted by the State Department to carry live ammunition, limiting their ability to respond to attacks like those this week on the U.S. consulate in Cairo. Ambassador to Egypt Anne Patterson “did not permit U.S. Marine guards to carry live ammunition,” according to multiple reports on U.S. Marine Corps blogs spotted by Nightwatch. “She neutralized any U.S. military capability that was dedicated to preserve her life and protect the US Embassy.” U.S. officials have yet to confirm or comment on the reports. Time magazine’s Battleland blog reported Thursday “Senior U.S. officials late Wednesday declined to discuss in detail the security at either Cairo or Benghazi, so answers may be slow in coming.” If true, the reports indicate that Patterson shirked her obligation to protect U.S. interests, Nightwatch states. “She did not defend U.S. sovereign territory and betrayed her oath of office,” the report states. “She neutered the Marines posted to defend the embassy, trusting the Egyptians over the Marines.” While Marines are typically relied on to defend U.S. territory abroad, such as embassies, these reports indicate that the Obama administration was relying on Egypt’s new Muslim Brotherhood-backed government to ensure American security, a move observers are questioning as violence in Cairo continues to rage. The Free Beacon will continue to update this report as events warrant. = Israelnationanews.com:  Intelligence Warns of Attacks Against Israeli and US Embassies Egyptian intelligence warned that a radical jihadi group is planning to launch attacks against the US and Israeli embassies in Cairo. By Rachel Hirshfeld First Publish: 9/11/2012, 6:06 PM The Egyptian General Intelligence Service warned that a radical jihadi group is planning to launch terrorist attacks against the US and Israeli embassies in Cairo, the Egypt Independent reported. Israel has accused the group, dubbed Global Jihad, of being responsible for the August 5 attack in Sinai against Egyptian border guards, which left 16 dead. The Egyptian Al-Masry Al-Youm newspaper reportedly obtained a copy of a top secret letter addressed to Major General Samy Sedhom, first assistant Interior Minister for Social Security, on September 4, which stated that intelligence services notified the ministry’s national security body that elements from the organization in Egypt and Gaza were planning attacks on the two embassies. Security sources said the letter was forwarded to Egyptian security officials, informing them to undertake the necessary measures. The sources added that Military Intelligence informed the Interior Ministry one week ago that 22 terrorists in Sinai are planning to attack vital facilities and police checkpoints, according to the Egypt Independent. Meanwhile, the Israeli National Security Council Counter-Terrorism Bureau issued a travel warning last week to Israelis and Jews around the world. The warning came in light of the upcoming holidays, during which many Israelis travel abroad. The warning said that, “in the wake of the string of attacks and attempted attacks that occurred this year, Iran and Hizbullah are continuing their increased efforts to implement additional attacks, focusing on the intent to harm Israeli tourist destinations around the world.” PLEASE share this important issue with friends.  Please consider posting this issue on your Facebook page.  Click here for the article then click the Flike key at the top of that article page to share with friends.
