RAND/Army Report Calls
For Militarized Police Force For U.S.
Authors admit Federal "Stabilization Force"
could be used domestically

A
recent study commissioned by the U.S. Army and written by the
RAND Corporation calls for the creation of a "hybrid"
military/law enforcement unit which could be put to use in the
United States to take charge of riot control and SWAT duties,
according to the authors.
The
study (PDF) was released last year but has garnered
fresh attention following comments made by one of its authors,
Terry Kelly, in an interview with online news website World
Net Daily.
"If there were a major disaster like Katrina it could
be deployed in the U. S. but that's not the purpose of the research,"
Kelly said.
"It's important to point out that the goal was to create
a force that's deployable overseas. If it's to be used in the
United States it would be a secondary thing and then only in
an emergency,".
Kelly said that the main focus of the force would be in places
like Iraq, Afghanistan or Haiti, in light of the earthquake
disaster, adding that it could operate as a U.S. force under
U.N. authority.
However, the report itself uses language that leaves open the
exact agenda of the force, and makes it clear that domestic
use has been considered at length.
It states that a Federal "Stabilization Police Force"
of 2–6,000 personnel would work best under a civilian
federal agency or the military police.
"They (the data) suggest that the U.S. Marshals Service
(USMS) and the MP options are the only credible ones. The Marshals
Service has sufficient baseline capabilities and a policing
culture to build a competent SPF, and its location in the Department
of Justice makes it well suited to achieve broader rule-of-law
objectives. This finding is consistent with a significant body
of academic and policy research, which strongly concludes that
civilian agencies are optimal for the execution of policing
functions." (page 123)
The study concludes that the use of the Marshals Service is
more favorable in order to avoid a breach of the long standing
Posse Comitatus Act, which forbids the domestic use
of the military for law enforcement purposes.
The report also states that the force could both augment and
be augmented by "additional federal, state, or local police
from the United States”.
“The USMS hybrid option … provides an important
nondeployed mission for the force: augmenting state and local
agencies, many of which currently suffer from severe personnel
shortages,” the report says.
“Furthermore, the USMS has the broadest law enforcement
mandate of any U.S. law enforcement agency…. [This model]
provides significant domestic policing and homeland security
benefits by providing thousands of additional police officers
across the United States.” (emphasis added)
It is clear then that part of the vision is to employ a Federal
military police force inside the United States.
The report is even titled A Stability Police Force for
the United States: Justification and Creating U.S. Capabilities.
Intelligence analyst Mark Taylor described the idea of a militarized
federal police force as "a Gestapo waiting to happen".
"Once you establish a government agency or program, it
does nothing but grow into a huge bureaucratic monstrosity that
feeds on the taxpayer... it would amount to just another intrusion
into the states' rights to govern and intrude into the liberties
of the American people," Taylor told WND.
Retired Marine Corps officer and 2008 vice presidential nominee
for the Constitution Party, Darrell Castle said the force would
be used to control the population and the idea is "part
of a long existing effort to mingle and combine all law enforcement,
federal, state, and local with the military into one force,"
"As I see it, the goal is to do the bidding of the international
cartel of central bankers and financiers in order to assist
them in building a world government police state which would
entail total surveillance, total control, and the absence of
what we think of as constitutional rights," Castle said.
The RAND Corporation is a notoriously powerful NGO with deep
ties to the U.S. military-industrial complex as well as interlocking
connections with the Ford, Rockefeller, and Carnegie foundations.
Current directors of RAND include Frank Charles Carlucci III,
former Defense Secretary and Deputy Director of the CIA, Ronald
L. Olson, Council on Foreign Relations luminary and former Secretary
of Labor, and Carl Bildt, top Bilderberg member and former Swedish
Prime Minister.
Carlucci was chairman of the Carlyle Group from 1989-2005 and
oversaw gargantuan profits the defense contractor made in the
aftermath of 9/11 following the invasion of Afghanistan. The
Carlyle Group has also received investment money from the Bin
Laden family.
In October 2008 we broke the story of RAND's
shocking proposal to the Pentagon in which it lobbied
for a war to be started with a major foreign power, such as
China, in an attempt to stimulate the American economy and prevent
a recession.
