Proof The Bible Is True

The controversies and suspicions surrounding Jade Helm 15, a Special Operations training mission set to kick off in select residential communities in seven states in the coming days, have just ratcheted up a bit due to the military’s recent veiled announcement: No press allowed.

Army Special Operations Command spokesman Lt. Col. Mark Lastoria put it this way: “All requests from the media for interviews and coverage of U.S. Army Special Operations Command personnel, organizations and events are assessed for feasibility and granted when and where possible. We are dedicated to communicating with the public, while balancing that against the application of operations security and other factors,” the Washington Post reported.

But in reality, repeated requests by the Washington Post to embed a reporter among the Jade Helm participants have been turned down – and the cited reason only fuels speculation about the secrecy of the military operation further.

Lastoria told the newspaper embedded journalists would compromise the mission by revealing the identities of those taking part. But as the Washington Post pointed out: Similar Special Operations missions on U.S. soil and in foreign nations that have taken place in recent years have allowed journalists on the scene.
