There are five major issues that have led up to the current rebellion in Minnesota against the Trump administration: 1) Minnesota is a hard core Democrat-dominated state because of the heavy Left/liberal bias of its major metro areas (where Somali refugees and illegal aliens congregate). 2) the massive welfare fraud involving Somalis, which was partially facilitated by State officials looking the other way—forcing federal officials to concentrate enforcement resources in MN. 3) The actions of Minnesota leaders to create a sanctuary state for illegals, including hostile policies meant to impede deportation of illegals by ICE. 4) The mounting organizational effort by professional agitators, funded by far Left sponsors to create daily confrontational protests with ICE agents. And 5) the wearing of masks to conceal identities of ICE agents coupled with excessive police violence such as what led to the death of two protestors. Finally, the administration’s efforts to justify and excuse these unnecessary shooting deaths has only exacerbated the crisis and given further justification for violent protests.

The United States has gathered more firepower in the Middle East than we have ever seen before. It exceeds anything that we witnessed during Operation Desert Storm, it exceeds anything that we witnessed during the war in Afghanistan, and it exceeds anything that we witnessed during the war in Iraq. That doesn’t necessarily mean that war is imminent. President Trump could ultimately decide not to pull the trigger. But without a doubt, at this moment we are exceedingly close to a cataclysmic showdown in the Middle East.

senior planners at CENTCOM have been instructed to maintain high-level staffing 24 hours a day “for the next month,” a directive that effectively places the command on a sustained war-planning footing.
