Texas has received a lot of criticism from the “mainstream” media for simply asking the question, “What is Jade Helm 15?” after Texas based Infowars.com reporter Staff Sergeant Joe Biggs blew the lid off of it.
If you dare ask this question you are labeled an idiot, nut job, right winger, far-right fringe and worse…conspiracy theorist! Why are Texans asking about Jade Helm 15?…because Texas is labeled, “Hostile” according to the military. But a better question for New Mexicans is, “Why aren’t New Mexicans demanding answers?
The same unclassified documents label New Mexico as… “Leaning Hostile!”
According to the U.S. Army website, Jade Helm is a multi-state training exercise taking place July 15 through Sept. 15 with members of U.S. Army Special Operations Command and service members from the military’s four branches. While the exercise is taking place across seven states, the Special Operations Forces are only training in five states: Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado. An unclassified military Power Point presentation was posted online describing the exercise.
A Houston Chronicle report reveals, “Among the planned exercises, soldiers will try to operate undetected amongst civilian populations in some towns and cities where residents will be advised to report any suspicious activity they notice as a means of testing the military’s effectiveness, said county law enforcement officials who had been briefed by the Army.” Roy Boyd, chief deputy with the Victoria County Sheriff’s Office stated, “They’re going to set up cells of people and test how well they’re able to move around without getting too noticed in the community. They’re testing their abilities to basically blend in with the local environment and not stand out and blow their cover.”
If the military was training for foreign operations in the Middle East, China or even Russia there would be no need to try to “blend in” or “operate undetected amongst civilian populations.” So why is the military training to be deployed on American soil? Why does even asking this question make you a “Conspiracy Theorist?” There is no conspiracy…this information has been made public by the military!
What does Jade Helm 15 mean in military terms?
According to Linda with What’s Going On News:
JADE= “Joint Assistant for Development and Execution”
HELM= “Homeland Eradication of Local Militants”
15= 2015
(Linda cites two sources, Air Force Research Laboratory dated 2001 and the other one is from, Department of State Publication 7277 Disarmament Series 5 Released September 1961 Office of Public Services Bureau of Public Affairs)
It seems that while the mainstream media and the military are claiming that “right wingers” and “conspiracy theorists” are responsible for blowing Jade Helm 15 totally out of proportion in reality, it is actually JUST THE OPPOSITE! “Right wingers” are generally very supportive of the military and shouldn’t the “mainstream” media be the ones asking the questions? The military and the media are the ones making this such an issue by attacking those who dare to simply ask questions about why the military is publicly (not conspiracy) training to take on Americans!
But this should come as no surprise since we have already been warned, Yes, Americans Will Be Targeted As Terrorists Under the NDAA
The FBI’s latest national threat assessment lists so-called sovereign citizens and the militia as threats to “U.S. internal security” while completely omitting Islamic terrorists. Also, considered potential terrorists are Evangelicals, Catholics, Pro-Lifers and returning [U.S.] veterans!
In fact a video was recently made public showing the National Guard training to take on Angry Right Wingers:

So while the Obama administration is systematically shredding the Constitution…Jade Helm 15!
ProgressNow NM is the only news entity in New Mexico that has covered Jade Helm 15 and surprisingly they are belittling anyone who is asking questions as, “right-wing conspiracy theorist nutjobs.” Not too surprising since ProgressNow NM openly crusades against conservatives and is radically pro-abortion, I guess Pat Davis the Executive Director of ProgressNow NM would love to see us all rounded up and hauled off to “re-education” camps! This should concern Albuquerque residents since Pat Davis is now attempting to run for City Council. Do you really want him in a leadership position in city government?
Also silent…once again is New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez. While Texas Governor Greg Abbott stated that he will be sending the Texas State Guard to monitor Jade Helm 15 operations in Texas “to safeguard Texans’ constitutional rights, private property & civil liberties.” New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez remains silent and refuses to comment on the activities of Jade Helm 15 in New Mexico. In fact, I attempted to get an official statement from Governor Martinez but as of publishing time for this article, I have received no response.
