DoD Confirms Russian Troops to Conduct Terror Drills Inside U.S.

I suppose I got lost somewhere. What exactly is the hoax here? I assume there is a hoax being that this has been moved to the hoax bin.

Really sad, it is not a hoax.

Russian paratroopers will meet up with American forces next month for an unprecedented military exercise in Colorado, according to RT News.

It's the first time Russian service members will be invited into the United States for a joint drill.

A Russian airborne task force will "exercise with U.S. special service weapons," an announcement by Russian Defense Ministry spokesperson Col. Aleksandr Kucherenko revealed.

Tell that to the mods who keep claiming this is a "Sortcha" thread please.
If DOD confirms they are putting Russian airborne troops,not Spetznaz alpha teams, around MY city.They aren't anti terrorists ,they are paratroops.Do we send the 82nd Airborne to other countries for anti terror ops? No we send elite special operators for that not line dogs like airborne infantry.I haven't heard of it.Having seen what passes for Russian anti terrorist operations they could use some training.
Is this real or not.

If the DoD confirmed it, then whats that matter. Unless that is a hoax too?



But if any of you are feeling froggy, maybe call the DoD and confirm, or better yet, email them and get written confirmation.

The truth of the matter is that DHS is like a carbon copy of the KGB, so unfortunately this comes as little surprise. Its been history in the making since September 11, 2001

See look here. NATO began relations with Russia around 2002, the same year Homeland Security was created.
en.wikipedia.org...–Russia_relations

NATO-Russian relations are relations between the NATO military alliance and Russia.
Cooperation between Russia and NATO started in 1991. In 1994 Russia joined the Partnership for Peace programme.[1] During the 1990s, sides have signed several important agreements on cooperation.[2]
The Russia–NATO council was created in 2002, for handling security issues and joint projects.
Cooperation between Russia and NATO now develops in several main sectors: fighting terrorism, military cooperation, cooperation on Afghanistan (including transportation by Russia of non-military ISAF freight, and fighting the local drug production), industrial cooperation, non-proliferation, and others.
Dmitry Rogozin holds the office of the Russian envoy to NATO.

en.wikipedia.org...

Partnership for Peace (PfP) is a North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) program aimed at creating trust between NATO and other states in Europe and the former Soviet Union; 22 states are members.[1] It was first proposed as an American initiative at the meeting of NATO defense ministers in Travemünde, Germany, on 20–21 October 1993, and formally launched on 10–11 January 1994 NATO summit in Brussels, Belgium.[2]

Note, it was an American Initiative.

Here was Russias first joint exercise
content.usatoday.com...

The unprecedented exercise began with a Polish aircraft leaving Krakow simulating the hijacking of a civilian aircraft to St. Petersburg.

As the simulated hijacking unfolded, two Polish F-16s from an air base in central Poland intercepted the "renegade" aircraft and turned the mission over to the two Russian Sukhoi jets that guided the plane to Malbork, in northern Poland.

It's in the Hoax bin because ATS is a COINTELPRO site. The moving of this thread has added evidence to that old rumor. Way to go, mods.

Russian warships to get NATO Communications Equipment

en.ria.ru...

Russian warships will be equipped with NATO navigation and communications systems to improve coordination in anti-piracy missions around the world, Chief of the Russian General Staff Nikolai Makarov said on Wednesday.
The issue has been discussed during a meeting of the NATO-Russia Council in Brussels.
“We decided to install standard NATO navigation and communications systems on our warships,” Makarov said.
NATO warships have been patrolling the pirate-infested waters off the Somali coast since 2008, as part of Operation Ocean Shield. NATO has recently extended its mission in the Gulf of Aden and adjacent areas until 2014.
Russia joined the international anti-piracy mission in the region in 2008. Russian warships have successfully escorted more than 130 commercial vessels from various countries since then.
Task forces from the Russian Navy, usually led by Udaloy class destroyers, operate in the area on a rotating basis.
A task force from Russia’s Northern Fleet, led by the Udaloy class destroyer Vice Admiral Kulakov, will arrive in the Gulf of Aden in the beginning of May to join the anti-piracy mission.

So you see, this runs deeper than most of us have ever imagined.

THIS IS NOT A HOAX!!!

t's worth noting the Russians will have access to U.S. military weapons training at the Army's Fort Carson — "Home of America's Best" — ahead of the scheduled May 24-31 drills. They'll also be trained to understand and operate hardware used by U.S. forces in airborne missions including "parachuting, operation planning, reconnaissance, assault operations and evacuations by helicopter."

May 24 through 31, Russian troops will learn US military tactics at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs, CO.

If this isn't a conspiracy, I don't know what is, especially sine MSM won't cover it. Local media is all over it.

Peter Boyles, radio host in Denver, is talking about it today.

The DOD claim was in the original Sorcha faal piece, the rest just reprinted it without checking.

Every story that has been linked has cited the Faal story as the original source.


Russian ships having NATO comm's is a different issue. But it only makes sense, ships at sea need to be able to talk to each other.

No, you need to recheck your homework. Yes the blaze article was from the sorcha faal piece word for word.

However the DoD confirmation had nothing to do with that article. It was confirmed on the New American website. Since then it has also been confirmed by Ft. Carson.

Isn't the only thread mistaken for a hoax, the case below had the IDF and 2 newspapers confirming as true, but certain ATS' biased staff ignored all that

I really wish when something is declared "hoax" that the reason
could be provided.

Yes the mods are silent on this one. According to this logic, because Sorcha Faal made a claim that was used by other sources, now they are all fake and hoaxes. However the story is not a hoax, particularly not the one in the OP of this thread.

Do you hear that? It's the sound of crickets in moderator land.

Thank you mods for moving back to current events forum.

Where this thread rightfully belongs.

Finally. I was waiting to see how long it would take the board operators to discover there is truth in this matter. Had any of the operators done even the slightest bit of investigation in this, rather than assuming it is hoax, they would have discovered very quickly that this report was initially made by an official state media of china source on 20.4.2012.


Now that we are again back to the subject. There is an element of this operation that does not appear noticed by many. So I will point it out.
Does it appear to any that the attack operation is designed to be a successful attack?

"After the operation, a helicopter will evacuate the soldiers," Kucherenko said,

They come in. They attack. They escape.

No hoax here people. So next time before shuffling it off to the hoax forum, try READING current events first!
