Serious Breaches of Security Are Destroying the United States
Within the last six months, two serious breaches of security have put the United States in serious jeopardy. As stated in one of our last articles, “… just recently it was noticed that our government—the United States of America– accidentally sent Taiwan four fuses used to trigger nuclear warheads on ballistic missiles in the late 2006.
But the error was only discovered a week ago according to the Pentagon, after being sent to Taiwan as “helicopter batteries”. They were recovered, yet this is the second major nuclear security breach that has been discovered in the past six months. The previous one was last September, when a mistaken transfer of nuclear armed cruise missiles occurred, transported from one US base to another aboard a B-52 bomber.
Yet these are not the only breaches that have come to light in recent years. In April of 2007, it was found that the Los Alamos National Laboratory’s security had been breached when a domestic dispute investigation at a local trailer court near Los Alamos turned up not only paraphernalia for making drug crystal meth, but also thousands of pages of highly classified documents dealing with designs of U.S. nuclear weapons.
If it had not been for the stupidity of the individuals involved, none of this would have been found out in the first place. It has been reported that, “Documents also show that the DOE is investigating separate drug use by at least 35 other lab workers who received security clearances around the same time.” Individuals who, I may add, should have been investigated before hiring as they had drug issues already. My brother is disabled, and the State has been looking for someone to care for him, and when we approached his caseworkers about who to hire, she said, “Presently, the ones we have available, I would not trust to clean out my garage.”
Apparently, this is the same mentality which is being hiring across board within the government and state offices. The problem is, these individuals are allowed in high security areas where they have free reign and access to all kinds of stuff. Are we that desperate for workers we put ourself in harms way intentionally?
Ron Paul recently said that the United States surely was not that stupid, so there HAD to be a reason for all the mistakes and errors occurring.And he is right, such as “losing over 190,000 guns [110,000 AK-47 assault rifles and 80,000 pistols] in 2004-2005 which were intended for the Iraq security forces. Since December 2007, our country’s defense system has admitted to losing approximately 120,000 weapons, which included over 800 machine guns. Now, that is a lot of guns to lose, so they obviously are somewhere where we are not allowed to know about. What the heck—they are just guns and money, right?
NOTE: Offshore accounts. A central node in the web of military corruption was Camp Arifjan, a sprawling $200 million US logistics center in the Kuwait desert south of Iraq that played a central role in the US military supply chain. According to investigators, the biggest bribery case of the entire Iraq war occurred there. It centered on US Army Major John Cockerham, who headed the contracting program at Camp Arifjan. The 41-year-old officer has been in military custody since July 2007. He, along with his wife and sister, have been indicted on charges of taking $9.6 million in bribes from at least eight companies for defense contracts in Iraq and Kuwait.
