My wife drove by TOPOFF 4 today in North Portland....
It's in an unused "big box store" building. She said there was a ton of Portland Police cars and bikes and a slew of riot vehicles with folks dressed like this:






coming out the back.

They practice in a nearby field.


I can't wait till the real thing. :sarcasm:

10. Thanks for that link ...
Too much info out there to catch all this stuff as it goes by. A couple more I read earlier today that are related.


Further steps in the lead-up to the war with Iran

The "Great Game" Enters the Mediterranean: Gas, Oil, War, and Geo-Politics (Note: This one is kind of lengthy but WELL WORTH the read to put some of these possibilities in perspective, so if the shit hits the fan someday we can't say it was all just a matter of coincidences)

Peace.

15. That photo was NOT taken in Portland.
Edited on Mon Oct-15-07 01:56 PM by quantessd
So, whatever it is in the photo, it isn't what the OP saw. Just wanted to make that clear.

16. Right but she did see riot police exiting riot vehicles.
Edited on Mon Oct-15-07 02:43 PM by Flabbergasted
The picture was just for illustration. I'm not sure riot police would be uncalled for...but it does seem like overkill.

17. Oh, I see.
I wasn't calling anyone dishonest, and I hope it didn't seem that way. The OP seemed to suggest that the photo was in Portland. I'm from Portland, and I know that ain't it! :)

Anyway, what a sight that must have been. I would have been annoyed.

3. Well it's not over yet-it runs 10 days I believe. So does your wife have a crystal ball
and know what's they've planned for the entire event? :eyes:

And BTW-I HOPE & PRAY that what you've described is "all" it is.

6. I'd be less worried about TOPOFF if...
six nukes left Minot and ALL SIX were accounted for at Barksdale.

5. Umatilla Nerve Gas Depot is where they are detaining the activists rounded up
The scenario is supposed to involve Iran's dirty bomb attack on Portland, a counter attack on Iran, civil protests in "Little Beirut" and the roundup of political activists. This is what an Oregon State employee told me, paraphrasing that conversation. Officials all over the state are involved.

11. Wait until we hold Operation FuckOff in 2008
Perhaps then we'll see far less of the black-clad thugs on our streets.

13. according to Greg Palast Cheney arrives in your city tommorrow
and rumours have Blackwater purchasing buildings in Portland
grasswire wrote Oregonian if Blackwater was practicing in Topoff in portland and many angry portlandians don't want Blackwater participating in Martial Law drills in Portland due to their poor record on crowd control

I'm very concerned and worried and hope this is just a simulation

but being a worry wart like you all know me
I'm worried
