"...international army..."???

Some see ominous portent in this report. I'm one of them.

Brits overrun town for training exercise

...British soldiers, all recently promoted to major, are visiting Fort Leavenworth for a three-week training course where they will work with their American counterparts on planning operations. Maj. Philip Gill, with the UK force, said that coming to Kansas was a change of scenery that added new challenges and unfamiliar issues when solving problems.

...In addition to the lessons on tactical strategy, Gill said he is looking forward to socializing and bonding with American soldiers.

...Birkett-Wendes said that was an important part of being an international army.
“It’s all about building relationships,” he said.

U.S. Troops Asked If They Would Shoot American Citizens


...The issue of whether U.S. troops would be prepared to round-up, disarm and if necessary shoot Americans who disobeyed orders during a state of martial law is a question that military chiefs have been attempting to answer for at least 15 years.
Bring on the "international army." Problem solved.
