The commander of the arm of the U.S. military responsible for Donald Trump's illegal military occupations of American cities said he is willing to conduct attacks on so-called designated terrorist organizations within the U.S.

This startling admission comes after months of extrajudicial killings of alleged members or affiliates of DTOs in the waters near Venezuela, which experts and lawmakers say are outright murders.

Gen. Gregory Guillot’s sopenness about the potential for unprecedented military action within U.S. borders comes as the White House, Pentagon, and Justice Department continue to refuse to rule out summary executions of Americans on Trump's secret enemies list, after weeks of requests for clarifications from The Intercept.

It's because you can't fight an enemy you can't find.

And to be effective guerilla fighters , you never fight the battle the opposing force wants you to fight. Quite honestly? Firearms are only so helpful and they have equipment and training galore to counter it.

IEDs were devastating to the US. So much so that they had to develop an entire transportation platform to safely cross territory. In Vietnam? Anti-personel mines. Today? Maybe thermite! Maybe chemical warfare. Maybe committing all sorts of war crimes because of the resistance doesn't, they can't win.

    Today, a big part of guerilla warfare will be hacking the enemies systems. The Israeli Beeper Attack is a perfect example.

    That was a literal physical attack on a supply chain vulnerability, and they didn't need any software hacking as they had direct access to the hardware.

    That's way more difficult to pull off, but an intelligent and fearsome way to take advantage of that vulnerability. Though I would have liked it way more if Israels hardware was the hacked one.

    They're a visual deterrent...

    And especially when dealing with cops, they're a very very effective deterrent.

    When the last time you saw cops assaulting openly armed protesters?
