Right Side News had reported a DHS Press Release on this five day National Level Exercise on July 3rd and the concern of foreign troops in our country.

DHS Coordinates National Level Exercise to Prevent Terrorist Attacks with Federal, State, Local Tribal, Private Sector, and International Partners

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will launch on Monday the five-day National Level Exercise 2009 (NLE 09)-the first national level exercise to focus on terrorism prevention-in conjunction with federal, state, local, tribal, private sector and international partners.

"Coordinating with our partners across the United States and around the world is critical to protecting the nation from terrorist attacks," said Secretary Janet Napolitano. "The National Level Exercise allows us to test our capabilities in real-time to refine and strengthen our strategies for preventing terrorist attacks."

The Congressionally mandated exercise-directed by the White House and coordinated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)-promotes intelligence and information sharing between and among federal, state, tribal, local, private sector and international participants. The NLE 09 scenario focuses on preventing a terrorist from entering the United States to carry out additional attacks in the aftermath of a terrorist event outside of the country, prioritizing intelligence and law enforcement activities that detect, disrupt and deter preventable terrorist incidents.

"FEMA's focus is to make sure that our entire response team, from the general public up to the highest level of government, is taking steps now to increase preparedness - regardless of what the next emergency or disaster is," said FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate. "This exercise is an important step in our ongoing preparedness efforts, and allows FEMA and its federal partners to better serve and protect our citizens."

The Departments of Homeland Security, Defense, Justice, and State, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and a broad spectrum of component agencies, offices and commands will all participate in the exercise. NLE 09 activities will take place at command posts, emergency operation centers, intelligence centers and field locations throughout the country, including federal headquarters facilities in the Washington, D.C. area as well as federal, regional, state, tribal, local and private sector facilities in Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and California. International partner nations will include Australia, Canada, Mexico and the United Kingdom. The Navajo Nation will also participate.

Following the exercise, a comprehensive evaluation process will assess counterterrorism and law enforcement prevention capabilities regionally, nationally and internationally.

TREASON
written by Mel From Texas, July 27, 2009

The whole concept is treasonous. The people are way out of line for bringing soldiers on our soil under the guise of a non-existent terrorist threat. The only threat comes from The tyrants in DC. We are way overdue for a revolution.

More Government Lies
written by Sara, July 27, 2009

.. according to my friends who where in the behind the scenes with the government, this is not "terrorist prevention", this is Martial Law training. If it was terrorist prevention, why would we need foreign troops over here? Also, according to my friends, they said to refuse the vehicle and people searches. If this is successful, more will happen in the future.
Everyone is entitled to their own thoughts on this matter, unless the government is going to take control of that too.
We all must remember that there are more American bodies than there are Government officials. We all must stand together. Though our government is starting to forget, we People still have our Constitutional rights!

Our government is thoroughly corrupt, our system of government is designed to be permanently corrupt, and it's high time we straightened out the systemic mess and kicked-out the dirty, rotten thieves.
