The Silent Invasion

The Silent Invasion
By Scott Gulbransen
Counting Coup Press, Inc.


In November 1998, while traveling through Texas, I heard some disturbing rumors. People were supposedly seeing Chinese soldiers in the Mexican desert. At least one Texan decided to go down and look for himself. He didn't make it back alive. Then came a curious story, forwarded to me by the editor of a national publication. A woman in Texas reported that her relatives had warned against returning to the family's ranch in Mexico. Foreign soldiers were said to be there. It wouldn't be safe coming in contact with them. When she traveled to Mexico and met with her relatives the woman learned that the strangers were Asians who were preparing to attack the United States. 

Scott Gulbransen is a writer who went to Mexico and talked with people about Chinese troops. He collected stories from border patrol officers, from Mexican policemen, fishermen and others. The testimony he gathered suggests that a military supply operation is underway in Mexico. Here are the main points:

(1) China is pumping arms, ammunition, men and uniforms into Baja California through the port of Ensanada. "The fishermen of Ensanada know something is going on," says Gulbransen. "They've seen it with their own eyes. But no one listens to poor fishermen. They're dirty drunks who smell like the fish they catch. They might be the first to witness the Chinese move on the United States but no one will listen."

(2) Communist bloc troops are in Mexico. There are small military encampments in the Mexican desert where troops from various communist countries are based. Judging by the rifle ammunition used, these are highly trained special troops fromCuba, North Korea, China and possibly Russia. They appear to operate in mixed groups (ethnically combined). According to witnesses, Mexican officials receive cash bribes for helping to maintain and conceal these troops. Anyone who threatens to expose the operation faces death. 

(3) Chinese military supplies are being smuggled into the United States. According to border patrol officers, U.S. officials are allowing trucks from Mexico carrying Chinese ammunition to pass the border without question. This only makes sense if officials responsible for the border are in the pay of Red China. Border patrol officers who've tried to blow the whistle have been frightened into silence. One officer died in a suspicious car accident after telling Gulbransen that she feared for her life. At one border crossing alone, 30 to 40 trucks loaded with Chinese military supplies were entering the United States per day. It would appear that the Chinese are setting upammunition dumps for troops or insurgents throughout the Southwest. 

(4) Communist guerrillas in Mexico expect that the United States will soon be brought to its knees. "I am the leader of the La Conquidistas," a Mexican guerrilla told Gulbransen. The plan is to take Mexico from the "imperialist pigs of the U.S. that hold the Mexican people in poverty." The guerrilla chief added that "Fidel Castro is the only brave man to stand up to you." When Gulbransen suggested the Conquidistas needed more than AK-47s to fight the United States, the chief explained that the Mexican people are resourceful. And besides this, Mexico has "friends throughout the world who would help us." As Gulbransen was leaving the secret meeting place, the guerrilla boss said: "You tell the fat Americans about the real Mexico. You tell them their day to pay is coming fast. Coming very fast."

Food prices are forecast to rise a sharp 3.5 percent this year -- nearly double the overall inflation rate. The lion's share of the increase is expected in the second half of 2011 when the recent uptick for commodities, such as corn and soybeans, makes its way through the food system. Just last month, USDA forecast an increase of 2.5 percent in 2011."

Press TV: Quick Facts: FEMA, secret US government

In light of the recent popular protests in various parts of the world -- particularly in Egypt -- some conspiracy theorist have hinted at the possibility of the US government using FEMA camps to hold potential protesters.

Some of these theories suggest that the government is prepared to turn FEMA camps into "concentration camps" holding "civilians" deemed a potential threat to the US government.

Such claims prompted Press TV to take a closer look at FEMA and its activities:

Sunday night, the Canal authorities announced another 48 hours delay shortly after Tehran state TV claimed the warships were already through to the Mediterranean.
And, finally, the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier was quietly transferred from Bahrain, headquarters of the US Fifth Fleet amid the anti-government uprising, to a point opposite the Iranian Gulf coast.
This pile-up of US naval, air and marine might at strategic points in the Middle East is a warning to meddlers to keep their hands off the revolutions, uprisings and protests sweeping Arab nations. It carries a special message for Tehran that the Obama administration will not permit the Islamic Republic's rulers to make military and political hay from the unrest - in Bahrain or anywhere else."

Glenn Beck uses methods to deceive people, Soros tells CNN - Haaretz Daily Newspaper | Israel News

READ MORE: Glenn Beck uses methods to deceive people, Soros tells CNN - Haaretz Daily Newspaper | Israel News: "Jewish billionaire George Soros responded Saturday to Glenn Beck's recent Fox News shows dedicated to prove that he was a 'puppet master' behind a movement trying to bring down the American government, and said he would be amused had people seen Beck's accusations more as a joke.

'I would be amused if people saw the joke in it because what he is doing is he is projecting what Fox, what Rupert Murdoch is doing. He has a media empire telling people falsehoods and leading the government in the wrong direction,' Soros told CNN's Fareed Zakaria.


'But by accusing me of doing that, it kind of makes it rather hard to see that really he [Glenn Beck] is working for the man who is really doing it, which is Fox News,' he added."

"NASA’s solar shield

The good news for Larry Rodriguez is that if the solar Katrina does occur, at least he’ll have between one and four days notice. NASA has put in place a defence called ‘solar shield’ consisting of satellites that can spot solar storms destined for earth. Although it identifies them days in advance, the crucial moment comes about 30 minutes before impact when the storm sweeps past ACE, a spacecraft stationed roughly a million miles from earth.

The craft measures the storm’s speed, density, and magnetic field and transmits the data to Earth where scientists say they can work out where exactly damage will be greatest, allowing them to warn public utilities."

Silver Grows in Popularity, but Prices Can Zigzag Wildly - NYTimes.com

READ MORE: Silver Grows in Popularity, but Prices Can Zigzag Wildly - NYTimes.com: "The iShares offering is a bullion fund. As investors plunk down their money, the sponsor, BlackRock, buys silver bars that are then stored in vaults in London. In December, those vaults held nearly 11 tons. BlackRock contracts with JPMorgan Chase to manage and guard the trove. Investors cannot visit, but they can see a list of the bars, recorded by serial number, online.

Compared with old-fashioned silver investing, an E.T.F. offers “safety and simplicity,” said Kevin S. Feldman, an iShares managing director at BlackRock. You can easily buy and sell shares and don’t have to worry about storage, he says."
