Olympic military buildup

More than 23,000 guards as well as British troops, at a cost exceeding 800 million dollars, are to provide security for the upcoming 2012 Olympic Games in Britain.


Press TV has conducted an interview with Rodney Shakespeare, a political analyst from London, about the massive militarization of the London Olympic Games and what this could mean for British society. The following is an approximate transcription of the interview.

Press TV: How would the average Briton feel about the mood and atmosphere of the Olympics when you can see heavily armed guards at every turn and possibly at some events look up and see an anti-aircraft missile over your head?

Shakespeare: The object of this militarization is to test the British population and it's not really about the Olympics. It's about a growing economic collapse in which the government intends on suppressing the people because they have no solution for this collapse; it's a result of a flawed and collapsing system.

In the USA, they are abominably treating journalists, it's become most sinister. The journalists are being hit even more than peaceful demonstrators.

And in the UK with the Olympics we are being told now that the military can be anywhere and can control us in exactly the same way as in the USA. In the USA they just passed a law, which effectively gives the government control in all respects over all methods of communication.



You are looking at the military steps and the repressive steps of a growing fascism and that is the truth of the matter. It's really nothing to do with the Olympics as such.

Press TV: What about the effect the cost of this will have on the British economy? These Olympic Games have already been criticized for possibly costing too much already and now there is this militarizing dimension being added to the mix.

Shakespeare: Yes. It's not really the cost of the Olympics, which the people rightly or wrongly have supported the cost. This is the cost of the military and there is no limit to the cost of the military, which the governments of the West will use in order to suppress the population at a time of economic withdrawal and social and economic distress.

The government certainly will pay anything to crush their own people. I'm afraid it's coming and the people must wake up. Because if they don't, given modern methods of control, which are partly police, particularly in military and means of shutting down the internet, we will find ourselves in fascist society.

Rogue aircraft will be shot down to protect Olympics

FIGHTERS jets will be prepared to use lethal force against aircraft that enter a restricted zone and present a threat to Olympic security, the Ministry of Defence has warned.

RAF Typhoon fast jets and Puma helicopters with snipers will be among the military aircraft patrolling the zone in central London, which comes into force from today.

Since 11 September 2001, the aviation industry has made it “virtually impossible” to hijack a passenger jet, the MoD said. However, it is preparing for all eventualities.

Should the worst happen, the first step would be to try to communicate with the aircraft and divert it. However, an MoD spokesman confirmed: “The last resort would be to shoot it down.”

Typhoons are equipped for air-to-air combat and carry weapons including advanced medium-range missiles and short-range missiles. Intercepted aircraft will be expected to comply with the directions of the military aircraft.

“As a last resort, we will have lethal force as an option,” said Air Vice-Marshal Stuart Atha, the Olympics air security commander.

Asked who would give the order for lethal force to be used, he added: “The highest level of government makes that decision.” He said using lethal action would be a “worst-case scenario” and that a best-case scenario would be to intercept and gain knowledge of the seriousness of the situation away from the built-up area of London.

Mr Atha was speaking at RAF Northolt in west London where some of the aircraft that will help patrol the restricted area were on display.

The restricted zone, in operation until 15 August, comprises a small inner zone covering central London and the Olympic site in Stratford, east London, and a large zone covering a swathe of the south-east of England.

As well as Typhoon jets based at Northolt, and Puma helicopters with sniper teams, at Ilford in east London, the MoD’s contingency plans include Army Rapier and Starstreak ground-based air defence systems at six London sites; Royal Navy Sea King helicopters at Northolt; and helicopter carrier HMS Ocean, the Navy’s largest ship, on the River Thames in London as a base for helicopter operations as well as accommodation for personnel.

HMS Ocean was due to pass through the Thames Barrier and arrive at Greenwich in south east London last night. The mobilisation of volunteer reservists in support of the Olympics is also under way.

The zones are designed for general aviation, which includes light aircraft, gliders and balloons. No commercial flights will be affected. There will also be restrictions at the Olympic sailing venue at Weymouth in Dorset until 8 September.

At Northolt yesterday, where members of the RAF Regiment showed off their weaponary and equipment, a Home Office spokesman said that for the Olympics, “we are planning on a terrorist threat environment that is severe”.

He added that it was better to be at the severe level in case the threat level needed to be increased. But he said: “We are not suggesting that there is any particular threat or risk to the Games that we know about.”

The Civil Aviation Authority has written to all private pilots and distributed more than 60,000 leaflets to warn about the restrictions. Under the plan, general aviation will not be allowed in the inner zone, although passenger planes heading for Heathrow and London City Airports will not be affected.

Private pilots wanting to fly in the larger restricted zone will have to file a flight plan and comply with Ministry of Defence instructions.

The MoD also revealed yesterday that aircraft intercepted will have to rock their wings, a way of communicating between pilots, and follow the military aircraft and turn away from London.

Flares and lasers could be fired by the military aircraft then, as a last resort, if an aircraft fails to comply with the directions of the military aircraft, it may be considered a threat to security, which may result in the use of lethal force.

A smaller set of airspace restrictions will be put in place from 16 August to 12 September for the Paralympics.

Defence Secretary Philip Hammond said: “Whilst there is no reported threat to the London Olympics, the public expects that we put in place a range of measures aimed at ensuring the safety and security of this once-in-a-generation event. I am pleased to be able to confirm that the equipment necessary to operate our comprehensive, layered air security plan is now in place.

“I believe this will provide reassurance to residents of, and visitors to, London, and a powerful deterrent.

“There are now 17,000 military personnel involved in the Olympic security effort, every one of whom will play a part in ensuring the games go smoothly and are the national sporting celebration they should be. They deserve everyone’s gratitude.”

Once Again, The Illuminati Cabal Is Spreading Their FEAR Into The Alternative Online Community With Threats Of Killing Thousands Of People During A False Flag Event During The 2012 Olympics...

(to watch on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpTMXuh5DxQ)

Will this happen or is it just misdirection again? I remember all the hype about planet X or Nibiru, and even got caught up in it myself. But it never happened, which makes me wonder about this Olympics bombing news as well. We all should know by now that the Illuminati Satanist pigs are always trying to trick us sheep and commonly spread "dis-information" to keep us away from the real news.

They did this with the "mass arrests" news stories that a new comer named Drake Bailey came forward with... which never happened on the dates and time periods forecast. While I do believe that he has the best intentions and is a honorable person, he was wrong about it. Why? Because the Illuminati pigs love to find good people and feed them dis-information so that "trusted" source will mis-inform us "truth seekers" and "patriots".

The largest warship in the British Navy's fleet and thousands of additional soldiers have arrived in London to ensure security is not breached during 2012 Olympics.

Spectators watched on as helicopter carrier HMS Ocean was manoeuvred into its dock at Greenwich, east London, yesterday where it will serve as a mighty military defence and home to service personnel during the Games.

Security of the global sporting event has been at the top of London Major Boris Johnson's agenda this week after contractor G4S admitted it needed additional soldiers to plug a 3,500 staffing shortfall.
