    Warmonger Obama moves Pentagon to Defcon 2

    DEFCON 2
    This refers to a further increase in force readiness just below maximum readiness. The most notable time it was declared was during the Cuban Missile Crisis, although the declaration was limited to Strategic Air Command. It is not certain how many times this level of readiness has been reached

    This is based on...

    Sources close to MiNa claim the US Army has moved their alert level to Defcon 2
    What reason is there to think that MiNa's sources are right?

    This started with a threat to search North Korean ships, followed by a North Korean nuclear test last week, right ?

    Maybe in response to North Korea declaring that it will no longer recognise the armistice treaty that ended the war there.

    I think he means those who are readying to cause trouble but don't talk about it. I think now is the time to watch for both those that do and those that don't. Problems have a habit of not waiting for other problems to be resolved before manifesting themselves
