[KOAT] NEW MEXICO - Santa Fe Building Evacuated Due To Bomb Threat

"The threat was received around 4 p.m. Tuesday afternoon and the building was immediately evacuated."

"The building houses offices for the General Services Department's Building Services, Property Control and Risk Management Divisions, as well as some offices of the Economic Development Department."

http://www.koat.com/news/16180723/detail.html

There is threats every day and have been for some time everywhere in the US. The first bomb that is like the one that blew up the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City will set off the whole thing. And out will come the force because it will be broadcast worldwide.

yes i think its an imminent possibility. whether the cause is a terrorist attack, war, a natural disaster. i expect to see martial law before the presidential elections. ive had this feeling for some time now.

Why do you think this? Is this just an extra-Biblical thought or is there evidence in the scriptures that martial law will be instituted in the USA?

this is a belief that isn't pulled out of thin air. research has lead people to believe that martial law is going to be enacted, possibly very soon.

hundreds of FEMA camps are being built nationwide. the government is obviously preparing for something.

the beginning of martial law

A good possibility. The imposition of Martial Law would suspend the constitution, and there would be no election. Bush could remain president (dictator) indefinitely.

http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=55824

We shall soon see.

I have also 'felt' that something would happen that will suspend the elections. One must consider what it would take to happen in the USA for the people of the USA to 'agree' to a one-world government.......AS STATED in scripture. Surely.........we in the U.S. would no longer have a functioning constitution nor the rights that protect us. Just have to face the cold, hard facts of what we are seeing headed our way in the same way as a 'runaway train'.

I agree. It sounds like a likely scenario.

I have researched a little on this subject and one thing is Martial Law does not suspend the constitution. Martial Law is not covered in the Constitution. What is is the Writ of Habeus Corpus. Martial Law is where the National Guard has the same powers as the police in search and seizure and arrest. This has happened most recently in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. It happened after the bombing of Pearl Harbor and, at the moment, the National Emergency Declaration may have run out of time. There has been no attack inside the US other than little blips, like bomb threats, little pussy bombs, and fanatics who are trying to disrupt the elections.
Any declaration of any Martial Law will have to be by Congressional Agreement.
And well, I haven't talked with Nancy Pelosi nor Sen. Hillary Clinton, so I don't know what they think.

I think it was in this one where they had stopped a vehicle with two 'combatants' sitting on the ground and one of them set off an incendianary device and lit a smoldering torch. Do you think that the Marines who stopped the vehicle were in their rights to do it? Nobody can argue with them. If they found something in the car could they have arrested the two 'combatants?' No, they couldn't have, because it was just training. Where else can they train for Iraqi neighborhood warfare except here in the US. Y'all calm down. At Ease!
The one where they had 66 counties in Texas under some kind of military assistance, there is something that y'all do not know.
Texas is the only state that has reserved the right to divide itself into four separate states and it may happen and it is the home of the President and the elections are almost here, bla, bla, bla.
I just do not feel that my rights will be violated or suspended and I do not see any time where there is a martial law except maybe along the West Coast. It is interesting that there have been swarms of earthquakes in the Nevada area and that may be a precursor to the supervolcano at Yellowstone, don't know. It's interesting to try and figure this stuff out and I could be wrong.
With those FEMA camps, do y'all remember what happened with hurricane Katrina?

The great tribulation will start soon. approximately six months into it, marshal law will be declared in the united states. then the rest of the world will follow suit.

If you read Haggai in the bible, it does seem that there is one thing that has not been fulfilled.

Hag 2:22 And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.

In history, this may have happened. But, history repeats itself.

WASHINGTON (AP) President Bush has called on Myanmar's military junta to allow the United States to help with disaster assistance after a devastating cyclone.

Thursday, May 8, 2008, 6:39 AM PDT
WASHINGTON (AP) U.S. officials say Russia has ordered the expulsion of two American military attaches from the U.S. Embassy in Moscow

17 minutes ago
YANGON, Myanmar - Relief supplies from the United Nations began arriving in Myanmar Thursday, but U.S. military planes loaded with aid were still denied access by the country's isolationist regime five days after a devastating cyclone.

Jesus told you that the scriptures are just witnesses to him. He said, 'You search the scriptures daily looking for eternal life, but they are just witnesses of me.'

But, the scriptures of the time of Jesus were the Old Testament, not the New.

And yes there is evidence in the bible that the only peaceful place will be Jerusalem. Read Haggai.

It is now ZERO HOUR. The military is on the move!

I also believe that the great tribulation will begin very soon, and probably a lot sooner than a lot of people out there are expecting. Life is basically just going along the way it always has, except with a whole lot more major problems for people to deal with. Still, as in the days of Noah, most people aren't expecting anything major other than high gas prices and financial difficulties. It will be a big surprise to many when it hits. As for martial law, there are many headlines in the news that make me think that things could very easily and very quickly put us there. There was one person who stopped posting a year or so ago who felt that would happen before Bush's term was up and would be the means of him staying in office. I really don't think he plans to, though. It's going to be an interesting few months, though, for sure. We all need to stay prayed up and have oil in our lamps.

I like the point that whether we are caught up before or after the tribulation, TODAY could be the day for any of us if we unexpectedly are called home before everybody else. So be ready today! And stay ready!

There are 66 counties in Texas where the Marine Corp and the civilian police are training for urban warfare.
In another state the Marine Corp is setting up neighborhood checkpoints.
It has begun.

Apparently there have been changes made by President Bush to how martial law operations on the scale of a nation-wide emergency. In another topic, bz posted this link:

Bush Replaced REX84 With New Martial Law EO: Once In Control - Martial Law Will Stay

It's interesting that the article says that all government control is supposed to go to the White House in the event of a "decapitation" of the American government by an act of terror or whatever else. But if that happens, who's going to be in the White House to run the country? It's pointed out that Bush was in Florida when 9/11 happened.

Martial Law will be established before anything happens maybe because of staged attacks inside or real threats from ouside like

An update from Canada:

Situation Update No. 1
On 09.05.2008 at 16:12 GMT+2

A Via Rail train has been quarantined in a small northern Ontario community Friday after one person died and several others reported feeling ill. The train had been travelling from Vancouver to Toronto when it made its regular Friday morning stop in Foleyet, Ont. The town of 380 people is about 100 kilometres southwest of Timmins. Via Rail spokeswoman Catherine Kaloutsky confirmed one person had died, but the cause of death isn't clear. Several other people on the train reported feeling ill with flu-like symptoms. Some people have been taken to hospital. Emergency response teams are working inside the train, which was carrying 260 passengers and 30 crewmembers. The illnesses appeared to be confined to two train cars. "The whole place is being overrun with ambulances and police cars, and we've got helicopters," said town chairwoman Deborah DesRochers. "They've got the train quarantined. They're trying to isolate what it is."

And here's one from Texas:

And is transportation going to be stopped?

It has never happened across the face of the whole earth. here are a couple of other scriptures of the same event.

Jeremiah 25
33 And at that day the slain of the Lord shall be from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth. They shall not be lamented, or gathered, or buried; they shall become refuse on the ground.
34 "Wail, shepherds, and cry! Roll about in the ashes, You leaders of the flock! For the days of your slaughter and your dispersions are fulfilled; You shall fall like a precious vessel.
35 And the shepherds will have no way to flee, Nor the leaders of the flock to escape.
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, And a wailing of the leaders to the flock will be heard. For the Lord has plundered their pasture,
37 And the peaceful dwellings are cut down Because of the fierce anger of the Lord.

Isaiah 34
1 Come near, you nations, to hear; And heed, you people! Let the earth hear, and all that is in it, The world and all things that come forth from it.
2 For the indignation of the Lord is against all nations, And His fury against all their armies; He has utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to the slaughter.
3 Also their slain shall be thrown out; Their stench shall rise from their corpses, And the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
4 All the host of heaven shall be dissolved, And the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll; All their host shall fall down As the leaf falls from the vine, And as fruit falling from a fig tree.


Isaiah 24
1 Behold, the Lord makes the earth empty and makes it waste, Distorts its surface And scatters abroad its inhabitants.
2 And it shall be: As with the people, so with the priest; As with the servant, so with his master; As with the maid, so with her mistress; As with the buyer, so with the seller; As with the lender, so with the borrower; As with the creditor, so with the debtor.
3 The land shall be entirely emptied and utterly plundered, For the Lord has spoken this word.
4 The earth mourns and fades away, The world languishes and fades away; The haughty people of the earth languish.
5 The earth is also defiled under its inhabitants, Because they have transgressed the laws, Changed the ordinance, Broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, And those who dwell in it are desolate. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, And few men are left.
7 The new wine fails, the vine languishes, All the merry-hearted sigh.
8 The mirth of the tambourine ceases, The noise of the jubilant ends, The joy of the harp ceases.
9 They shall not drink wine with a song; Strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.
10 The city of confusion is broken down; Every house is shut up, so that none may go in.
11 There is a cry for wine in the streets, All joy is darkened, The mirth of the land is gone.
12 In the city desolation is left, And the gate is stricken with destruction.

Here am I,

It is a possibility that it will be President Bush that signs that piece of paper to suspend our constitutional rights but I have my doubts. Allow me to share some of my concerns with you. There is going to be an economic collaspse in America and soon, but I am unsure if this will occur under the authority of President Bush. I think our next President will begin to connect all the dots that have been predicted in Scriptures, and usher us into the next chapter of Biblical Prophecy. But frankly, I don't believe that President Bush is the man that will suspend our constitutional rights. This man at this moment is in the shadows and quickly rising to the limelight. Many Americans do not consider him a threat to our American Constitution. In fact he has been applauded for his speeches on change.

We want to keep a close eye on FEMA who are known as the "secret police." When all dirt hits the fan you can bet that FEMA will be in the limelight. Fema is ready to move by one stroke of the pen...one order...they are ready. FEMA has been well trained and they are waiting.

At this moment work is being done on concentration camps that will be equipped to detain fellow Americans.

Gods Blessings,

Al

if you want an opinion...

yes, sooner or later there will be marshall law. we have no idea how that will
impact personal freedom and how that will integrate with the constitution...

study the praetorian guard and you will gain an idea how empires fail and fall...

Hi Adeline,

I am under the opinion that a major economic or catastrophic event will occur this year. A new president would not be inaugurated until January 2009. But we shall see.

MARTIAL LAW COMING TO A CITY NEAR YOU ?

Crime has become so bad in Helena, Arkansas that the mayor has imposed a curfew in certain parts of the city for ALL RESIDENTS. I applaud the brother for stepping up and doing something to curtail the violence but hope a better solution can be found soon. House Arrest for ALL Citizens at all times?

Is this something that will coming to other U.S. cities?

http://overanalyzeit.wordpress.com/2008/08/12/martial-law/

Pretty soon? Right now, at this moment, it is Marshall Law. Not only did the Marshall law remove the Cherokee Indians from Georgia, the Marshall Plan rebuilt Europe after WWII. But, are they related to the idea of the praetorian guard and how empires rise and fall? Absolutely.
But, right now, there seems to be an escalation of the need for another 'Marshall Plan.'

LAW AND ORDER: CURFEW AMERICA

War zone security has arrived in the US as cities are shut down at night by police struggling to control a deadly wave of gun crime. David Usborne reports from Hartford, Connecticut

The police state has not arrived quite yet but it may feel like it to the residents of some American cities, where a handful of embattled mayors and police chiefs are imposing strict and sometimes sweeping curfews as a last resort to quell new waves of gun violence this summer.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/am...ica-902909.html

I'm with Gregg and Annie...

Yes, Martial Law may even be here right now and obviously as Annie just posted, it is in effect in Connecticut. It's coming to a City near you, so just be aware, this can happen to anyone, anywhere.... all it takes is a major catastrophe, which looms on the horizon. It's obvious, and only ones not paying attention cant see it.

God bless you both!

Another Sparkly girl. Thanks Annie!
