Sorry OP, but my company is a Level 4 Certified GOP printer, and having done hundreds of print jobs like this, I can tell you that this is a ARMY ROTC booklet and nothing else.

Its quantity is consistent with other GOP jobs that I have done over the last 20 years, and does not stand out as anything out of the ordinary.

EVERY GOP printing job has a due date, and most of them are pushed to the limits. So again, there is no pending issue beyond April 29th that would make this some sort of clandestine, must have booklet for some unknown event.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

Wouldn't suprise me one bit. Can we get the content posted here? Should be a good read regardless doom lackage.

The text from page one of the document -

I used an OCR Reader so not all correct. Some of you seem to be talking about something completely different than the article is about.

I don't get a conspiracy here. Where is it?

Thanks, but no reason to be condescending. We're here to speculate on the unknown and constantly dig in hopes of discovering who was close.

Given our government's behavior I can't say such speculation was uncalled for. You just wait and see what we have to say when 30 million "my prison diary"s are printed.

Well, if you reeeeeeally want a conspiracy based upon what you have given.

This document is apparently specific to those who will be 'detained' (which is different from prisoners how?) Presumably, the order of 350,000 copies of this: www.scribd.com... ; indicates that an exercise is underway, but I doubt that a public bid would be part of an 'exercise' because it is a legal invitation to expend private resources in pursuit of a government contract.

The ratio of English to Spanish copies is shy of 2 to 1. Assuming any subsequent orders were similarly proportioned, does that mean that for every Spanish-speaking detainee there will be two English speaking detainees? Perhaps it means that there will be 2 guards for every Spanish-speaking detainee? I don't know.

But based upon such suppositions, a conspiracy involving the prison industry (a subsidiary of the military industrial complex) is not out of the question.... of course it will presumably create jobs.... that's good, no?

Sorry.. but you asked.
