Noble Resolve 07: Four days of “simulated” nuclear terrorist scenarios in the US & Europe
by DL Abrahamson, Global Research, April 20, 2007

From April, 23 to April 27, the elite echelon of the military are running Noble Resolve 07, a four-day marathon of “simulated” terror attacks across the US and Europe. This includes a simulated detonation of a “loose” ten-kiloton nuclear weapon Virginia harbor, smuggled in by a “foreign nation.”

This week Dick Cheney has also been warning of the “very real” threat of a nuclear attack on an American city. Could the Nobel Resolve drills be used as a screen for a false-flag attack to be blamed on Iran, Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda, or sheep-dipped Americans like Adam Gadahn?

The drills are being run by Joint Task Force Command (JTFCOM), Northern Command (NORTHCOM), J9 Joint Innovation and Experimentation Directorate, FEMA’s command bunker, the Department of Homeland Security, and Virginia police.

The US Marines are also running “Emerald Express 07” in Virginia on April 24 as part of their Urban Warrior 07 drill package.

It is important to note the “Nobel Resolve” drills are dominated by NORTHCOM, the branch of “homeland defense” based in Colorado and responsible for shutting down the United States under martial law, as well as ushering in the merger of the US, Canada, and Mexico via the SPP.

Meanwhile the J9 Directorate, formulates various terror scenarios and uses advanced computer modeling to run drills and predict human reactions; Recent articles highlight how they are using virtual environments to create and manage realistic war scenarios with millions of “people.”

Some key quotes from the article:

“He said the scenario of the experiment's first phase starts with multinational partners and goes down to individual municipalities. It begins with a threat that originates in Europe and travels toward the United States.”

“Kersh said that as the scenario progresses, other agencies and other layers of government become involved.”

"The problem eventually arrives at the commonwealth of Virginia with that threat making it into port and then blowing up. This will cause us to work the consequence management part of the problem”

“The fusion center is in a state police headquarters and it's collocated with Virginia's emergency operations center.” (ed: Mount Weather)

“coordinated with DHS, possibly to coincide with one of that department's major exercises.”

We must remember that CIA agent Philip Giraldi warned the American Conservative magazine that STRATCOM would launch a nuclear attack on Iran in the wake of a new WMD-style attack on American soil.

And the Russian media and former Russian military members continue to warn that an American and Israeli strike on Iran is imminent.

While many drills are run every month, Nobel Resolve 07, with it’s “realistic” scenarios, comes at a time of increased geopolitical tension. It is reminiscent of the drills in 2005, where a ten-kiloton nuclear weapon was “simulated” to explode in South Carolina. Some speculated that four-star Gen. Kevin Byrnes, of the Fort Meade TRADOC command, was fired due to his exposure of the drill.

We should not live in a constant state of panic and fear, or make any irresponsible predictions about Noble Resolve 07. But in the coming days, we can email this information to blogs, media outlets, friends and family. Congressmen, and others to help inoculate against any possibility that rogue “red teams” inside the drills may be activated.

It also gives us the opportunity to remember that Alex Jones warned the World about 9/11 months before the actual attacks. How many times we will believe government lies is unknown, but I do hope that the coming weeks pass by without any incidents, even though we have been warned that U.S. Continues Preparations for Iran Strike.

This astounding number of ‘Disabled Vets’ means that a decade later, 56% of those soldiers who served have some form of permanent medical problems!” The disability rate for the wars of the last century was 5 percent; it was higher, 10 percent, in Viet Nam.

    ....."// Dr. Asaf Durakovic told a conference of eminent nuclear scientists in Paris that “tens of thousands” of British and American soldiers are dying from radiation from depleted uranium (DU) shells fired during the Gulf war.

    The findings undermined the British and American governments’ claims that Gulf War Syndrome does not exist and intensify pressure from veterans on both sides of the Atlantic for compensation.

    Durakovic, who is professor of nuclear medicine at Georgetown University, Washington, and the former head of nuclear medicine at the US Army’s veterans’ affairs medical facility in Delaware, told the conference that he and his team of American and Canadian scientists have discovered life-threateningly high levels of DU in Gulf veterans 10 years after the desert war.

    His findings, which have been verified by four independent experts, are embarrassing for the Ministry of Defense (MoD) and the US Department of Defense, which have consistently refused to test Gulf War veterans for DU.

    Durakovic told the European Association of Nuclear Medicine that tests on 17 veterans have shown DU in the urine and bones of 70% of them." (FROM earlspolitics.blogspot.com/2005...html)

      Al-Qaeda and Iranian allies 'plan Hiroshima attack'

      AL-QAEDA leaders in Iraq are planning the first "large-scale" terrorist attacks on Britain and other western targets with the help of supporters in Iran, according to a leaked intelligence report.

      Spy chiefs warn that one operative had said he was planning an attack on "a par with Hiroshima and Nagasaki" in an attempt to "shake the Roman throne", a reference to the West, according to The Times newspaper in the UK.

      Another plot could be timed to coincide with Tony Blair stepping down as prime minister, an event described by al-Qaeda planners as a "change in the head of the company".

      The report, produced earlier this month and seen by The Sunday Times, appears to provide evidence that al-Qaeda is active in Iran and has ambitions far beyond the improvised attacks it has been waging against British and American soldiers in Iraq.

      There is no evidence of a formal relationship between al-Qaeda, a Sunni group, and the Shiite regime of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, but experts suggest that Iran’s leaders may be turning a blind eye to the terrorist organisation’s activities," reports The Times.

      The intelligence report also makes it clear that senior al-Qaeda figures in the region have been in recent contact with operatives in Britain.

      It follows revelations last year that up to 150 Britons had travelled to Iraq to fight as part of al-Qaeda’s "foreign legion". A number are thought to have returned to the UK, after receiving terrorist training, to form sleeper cells.

      The report was compiled by the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre (JTAC) - based at MI5’s London headquarters - and provides a quarterly review of the international terror threat to Britain. It draws a distinction between Osama Bin Laden and al-Qaeda’s core leadership, who are thought to be hiding on the Afghan-Pakistan border, and affiliated organisations elsewhere.

      The document states: "While networks linked to AQ (al-Qaeda) Core pose the greatest threat to the UK, the intelligence during this quarter has highlighted the potential threat from other areas, particularly AQI (al-Qaeda in Iraq)."

      The report continues: "Recent reporting has described AQI’s Kurdish network in Iran planning what we believe may be a large-scale attack against a western target.

      "A member of this network is reportedly involved in an operation which he believes requires AQ Core authorisation. He claims the operation will be on 'a par with Hiroshima and Naga-saki' and will 'shake the Roman throne'. We assess that this operation is most likely to be a large-scale, mass casualty attack against the West."

      The report says there is "no indication" this attack would specifically target Britain, "although we are aware that AQI . . . networks are active in the UK".

      Analysts believe the reference to Hiroshima and Nagasaki, where more than 200,000 people died in nuclear attacks on Japan at the end of WWII, is unlikely to be a literal boast.

      "It could be just a reference to a huge explosion," said a counter-terrorist source. "They (al-Qaeda) have got to do something soon that is radical otherwise they start losing credibility."

      Despite aspiring to a nuclear capability, al-Qaeda is not thought to have acquired weapons grade material. However, several plots involving "dirty bombs" - conventional explosive devices surrounded by radioactive material - have been foiled.

      Last year al-Qaeda’s leader in Iraq called on nuclear scientists to apply their knowledge of biological and radiological weapons to "the field of jihad".

      Details of a separate plot to attack Britain, "ideally" before Blair steps down this summer, were contained in a letter written by Abdul al-Hadi al-Iraqi, an Iraqi Kurd and senior al-Qaeda commander.

      According to the JTAC document, Hadi "stressed the need to take care to ensure that the attack was successful and on a large scale". The plan was to be relayed to an Iran-based al-Qaeda facilitator.

      The Home Office declined to comment.

      Sunnely: "Might anyone please give me your reflections on how the media is in the states?"

      It is absolutely instrumental in the active manufacturing of public consensus. Consequently. it is largely centralised. Freedom of the press has been seriously eroded ever since Bush Inc set up camp. For a good laugh, watch Fox News; as close to the propaganda machine as it gets!

      US TV newscasts in general are a joke: more sensationalism orientated with a dash of cheap silly jokes than anything else. Not to mention the annoying commercials. Watch how many drug commercials run on US TV -> Ask your doctor if such and such is "right" for you... The Discovery Channel and National Geographic are waay cool though.

        Honestly, I think the world would be better off without the USA as world police. We do by far more harm than good.

        Its just a shame that we have to use nukes that poison the earth for so long....couldnt we come up with a chemical weapon that is only toxic for days instead of millions of years? A biological agent that only kills humans but leaves the rest of the natural world to thrive in peace without humans fucking it all up?

        What is this attraction to weapons that have such detrimental impact on the earth? Havnt we figured out anything better with all our modern technology?

      the bulletin went out to all the major networks simultaneously. CNN reported the same thing almost the same exact time only to quickly retract and restate that "it has collapsed or is about to collapse"

      the beautiful thing in the BBC broadcast is the news anchor talking about the Salomon Bros building having collapsed and the reporter in New York responding with the building still standing in the background over her left shoulder.

        No, CNN just repeated what the bbc reported. The reporter live on the scene erroneously reported it had collapsed when it was the fire fighters indicating that it was on the VERGE of collapse. Reporters always want to get the scoop and that is why it is actually common to get erroneous reports live from the scene. The debacle in the election in Florida is a prime example.

    Operation Vigilant Shield Oct 14-20 "simulates" martial law

    NORTHCOM Plans 5 Day Martial Law Exercise
    Wednesday, September 05, 2007.

    By Lee Rogers - Intel Strike Contributing Writer

    "The United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) has just announced
    plans for an anti-terrorism exercise called Vigilant Shield 08. The
    exercise which is slated to run from October 15th to October 20th is
    described as a way to prepare, prevent and respond to any number of
    national crises.

    The exercise is simply a test case scenario for the
    implementation of martial law. Although the description of the
    exercise is disturbing, USNORTHCOM also announced that they are more
    prepared for a natural disaster and a terrorist attack after they used
    their response to Hurricane Katrina as a test laboratory.

    During Hurricane Katrina, authorities violated the constitutional rights of
    citizens by stealing people's firearms and even relocating people
    against their will.

    These announcements are incredibly disturbing on a
    number of levels as the nature of Vigilant Shield 08 and the admission
    that Hurricane Katrina was used as a test laboratory shows that the
    government is actively preparing the military and government
    institutions for martial law.


    Below is the full press release from USNORTHCOM describing Vigilant
    Shield 08. Also check out the Vigilant Shield 08 fact sheet by
    clicking here. www.northcom.mil/News/2007/083007.html


    North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command
    along with U.S. Pacific Command, the Department of Homeland Security
    as well as local, state and other federal responders will exercise
    their response abilities against a variety of potential threats during
    Exercise Vigilant Shield `08, a Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of
    Staff-designated, North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and
    U.S. Northern Command (USNORTHCOM)-sponsored, and U.S. Joint Forces
    Command-supported Department of Defense exercise for homeland defense
    and defense support of civil authorities missions.

    VS-08 will be conducted concurrent with Top Officials 4 (TOPOFF 4),
    the nation's premier exercise of terrorism preparedness sponsored by
    the Department of Homeland Security, and several other linked
    exercises as part of the National Level Exercise 1-08.

    These linked exercises will take place Ocober 15-20 and are being conducted
    throughout the United States and in conjunction with several partner
    nations including Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom, as well
    as the Territory of Guam.


    VS-08 and National Level Exercise 1-08 will provide local, state,
    tribal, interagency, Department of Defense, and non-governmental
    organizations and agencies involved in homeland security and homeland
    defense the opportunity to participate in a full range of exercise
    scenarios that will better prepare participants to prevent and respond
    to national crises. The participating organizations will conduct a
    multi-layered, civilian-led response to a national crisis.


    USNORTHCOM's primary exercise venues for VS-08 include locations in
    Oregon, Arizona and a cooperative venue with USPACOM in the Territory
    of Guam. NORAD's aerospace detection and defense events will take
    place across all the exercise venues, to exercise the ability to
    mobilize resources for aerospace defense, aerospace control, maritime
    warning, and coordination of air operations in a disaster area.


    This exercise is clearly a way to prepare government to respond to a
    national crisis with martial law. This announcement also follows a
    number of other news stories that indicate the government is becoming
    more actively prepared for the implementation of martial law.


    These stories include the following:

    George W. Bush issuing a presidential directive declaring that he is a
    dictator during the case of a national emergency be it a natural
    disaster, a terror attack or any number of crises.

    KSLA reporting that members of clergy will be used to convince people
    to submit to government in the case of declare martial law. See the
    video below.

    The U.S. Department of Treasury conducting a disaster drill to prepare
    for a potential economic crisis.


    In addition to the announcement of Vigilant Shield 08, USNORTHCOM also
    announced that they have been using the lessons learned from Hurricane
    Katrina to better respond to crises. The response to Hurricane Katrina
    was essentially used as a test laboratory to implement martial law in a city.

    People were forced to relocate against their will and
    authorities stole people's firearms in the name of safety despite
    these actions being entirely unconstitutional.


    From USNORTHCOM:

    "Hurricane Katrina's impact on this country was unprecedented. There
    are still many of our fellow Americans whose lives still haven't
    returned to normal," said Gen. Gene Renuart, commander of North
    American Aerospace Defense Command and USNORTHCOM. "It will take many
    years for the Gulf Coast to fully recover.

    "The United States military was deeply involved in the response to the
    hurricane and subsequent flooding," Renuart said. "While our Soldiers,
    Sailors, Airmen, and Marines helped thousands of people, we also
    learned many lessons."

    According to Renuart, USNORTHCOM has been using the lessons learned
    from Katrina to modify plans to respond to both natural disasters and
    potential terrorist actions.

    Northern Command also admits in the same article that they have
    pre-scripted mission assignments coordinated with FEMA to implement
    martial law under the pretext of disaster response.


    From USNORTHCOM:

    USNORTHCOM is ready to help federal, state and local officials to be
    prepared for a major hurricane and to be successful at conducting
    response operations, if necessary and requested by the primary
    responding agency.

    Some of the ways these objectives are being achieved are:

    Through State Engagement programs, USNORTHCOM provides planning
    support to help states prepare for emergencies.

    USNORTHCOM and its subordinates, as well as local, state and federal
    partners conduct major disaster exercises to refine processes and
    apply lessons learned.

    Working with FEMA, USNORTHCOM has prepared pre-scripted mission
    assignments to accelerate the disaster response process.

    USNORTHCOM conducted a major exercise with the National Guard in May
    to refine the interface between the National Guard and DoD.


    There is no question that Vigilant Shield 08 is either government
    preparation for the implementation of martial law or a way for
    criminal elements within the government to distract emergency
    responders in order to conduct a false flag terror attack as a pretext
    to actually implement martial law and engage in foreign war.

    On September 11th, 2001 there were drills run by NORAD including Vigilant
    Guardian which served as a way to ensure that there was no adequate
    military response to the hi-jacked planes. A similar scenario
    unfolding with Vigilant Shield is not out of the question. "
