Democrats' Private War
The people in charge of the Deep State are unarguably of the left - would they use private military assets against the American people?
I’ve used the analogy before of conservatives hiring Trump and his mercenary legions to fight for and with us against an enemy that has captured all the institutions and holds the high ground with a Deep State bureaucracy.
I used Sir John Hawkwood as an example. Hawkwood was an English mercenary and military leader who became famous for his exploits in Italy during the 14th century while in command of the famous White Company.
As many have discussed, the divide in America could well be leading us to direct and possibly violent conflict.
I thought about my son, whom most of my readers know is in the US Army, and the children of other moms and dads who are in the services. I’ve wondered about the Deep State’s use of the military to quell conflict and whether I might be on the business end of a rifle held by someone’s child - if they would obey an unlawful command to exercise extreme prejudice.
It is possible the military will never need to walk up to that line, no matter how much Biden brags about us needing “…F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons” to challenge abusive government power.
What if, instead of regular military (where the Constitution comes into play), the Deep State turns to mercenaries – to Private Military Companies – like Russia has with the Wagner Group in Ukraine?
Given the end-run around the Constitution the Biden administration did when they engaged in a wink and a nod operation to get corporations to mandate the covid vaccine, it isn’t beyond reason to think if they become desperate enough, they might try the same thing militarily.
That made me think about how many people are part of private paramilitary security services, private military contractors and basically standing private armies around the world.
While estimating the total number of people in private armies and mercenary companies around the world is difficult due to the clandestine nature of these organizations, their differing sizes, and how they are categorized, one can provide some context and rough figures based on known private military contractors (PMCs) and their operations:
Private Military Contractors (PMCs):
The largest and most well-known PMCs like Blackwater (now Constellis), G4S, Academi, DynCorp, and Wagner Group operate globally and have hired thousands of personnel.
G4S, for example, is one of the largest security companies in the world and had over 500,000 employees at its peak. However, only a fraction of these is likely involved in direct military or high-risk security operations.
Wagner Group, a Russian paramilitary organization, is reported to have between 5,000 and 10,000 personnel active, but some estimates during key operations like in Ukraine suggest much higher numbers.
Iraq and Afghanistan Wars:
During the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts, there were as many as 100,000 private contractors working for the U.S. government at one point, some of whom engaged in combat roles or security.
Current Global Presence:
Private security companies, which may provide armed personnel, operate in various countries in Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, and elsewhere.
Some estimates suggest that globally, PMCs employ between 250,000 and 500,000 individuals, though this includes a wide range of roles, from combatants to logistical support.
Mercenary Involvement:
Mercenary forces are often recruited in third-world conflict zones like Libya, Yemen, and Syria. It's difficult to estimate exact numbers, but tens of thousands of individuals may be involved in unofficial or semi-official roles across various regions.
It is hard to pinpoint an exact figure, estimates suggest there could be hundreds of thousands of people globally working for private military contractors, security companies, and in mercenary roles, though the actual number of those involved in direct combat or paramilitary operations is likely smaller but still significant.
Something to consider as the Democrats who currently hold power become even more emotionally unhinged, irrational, and desperate, and those are not conditions conducive to logical decisions.
Americans have already proven we will cross a frozen river, on Christmas, to attack Hessian mercenaries in their sleep. It is not unthinkable it could happen again.
One additional thought: With millions of military aged men illegally crossing into the nation, it would be easy to find those who would serve in military hit squads especially if paid well, accompanied by comfort women and promise of amnesty and citizenship if "honorably" discharged....
With no knowledge of US Constitution or historical relationships between the military and the citizenry, and with leadership selected for their avoidance of morality, we might well be in a fight for our lives and the future of freedom.
It is a certainty that icy rivers will be crossed in the midst of Winter.
That day will arrive soon enough.....
more understandable why the deep state would like to get rid of the millions of firearms, billions of rounds of ammo that are owned by patriots and the law abiding.
