This is an urgent advisory notice from concerned citizens of Oregon
and Washington about an upcoming U.S. Joint Forces Command
emergency management exercise known as NOBLE RESOLVE 07-2 that will
simulate terrorism or disaster scenarios in the Lower Columbia
River Basin between Aug. 20th and Aug 24th, 2007.
NOBLE RESOLVE 07-2 was designed and will be directed by U.S. Joint
Forces Command (USJFCOM) and the Department of Homeland Security.
We are aware of no public notice concerning this exercise, but
preliminary investigation has revealed that Oregon National Guard
officials and federal officials will conduct the drill. Details
from official sources are minimal.
This advisory is to document our concerns, raise public awareness
and urge citizen action based on the following facts:
1. NOBLE RESOLVE is a computer-based simulation of a large-scale
emergency situation (e.g. earthquake, hurricane, tsunami, or
terrorist attack with nuclear weapon) in order to train for
managing all aspects of the emergency response through
comprehensive software.
2. Military exercises such as NOBLE RESOLVE 07-2 have a recent
history of coinciding with lethal “live” events. This occurred both
at the start of Desert Storm in 1990 and on 9/11/01 when five or
more major military or security exercises were in progress on the
very day of the actual attacks. The same phenomenon occurred with
the London Bombings of 7/7/05 during which a drill concerning
multiple bomb attacks was being staged on that day.
3. Vice President Cheney, Homeland Security Director Michael
Chertoff and former Senator Rick Santorum have all warned of a new
9/11 attack this summer, but are giving no evidence in support.
Chertoff based his prediction on a “gut feeling”.
4. The May 2007 Presidential Directive NSPD 51 (HSPD 20) addressing
“continuity of government” in the event of a massive emergency,
includes secret "annexes" which are pertinent additional documents.
Some US Congressional Committee on Homeland Security members such
as Rep. Peter DeFazio have written to formally request permission
to review these secret "annexes" and have twice been denied access
by the White House.
5. This particular exercise, NOBLE RESOLVE 07-2, includes one
scenario involving an unaccounted for, "loose," 10 kiloton nuclear
weapon, exactly as Vice President Cheney hinted in recent
interviews. Department of Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff
claims he fears the same.
6. The plummeting support for the GOP has triggered comments from
its members and analyses of its current political strategy that
point to a new 9/11 attack as a contributing factor to GOP
political salvation. Moreover, it appears that legends or back
stories are being disseminated to support just such an event.
Transparency concerning NOBLE RESOLVE 07-2 is vital for the public
safety of everyone in the Lower Columbia River Basin. We call on
the planners, directors and participants in NOBLE RESOLVE 07-2 to
be vigilant and to maintain transparency with respect to these
military exercises. We also urge citizens and our elected officials
to monitor the activities of participants connected with the
exercises and alert authorities to any suspicious behavior.
These exercises have an established pattern of becoming “live”
events. (Please read references below.)
We recommend that officials of the Ports of Astoria, Longview,
Vancouver and Portland on the Lower Columbia River take extra care
in their monitoring and examination of all shipping on the Lower
Columbia River while NOBLE RESOLVE 07-2 is in progress.
Finally, we urge all concerned to voice that concern in letters and
calls to elected officials and civil servants requesting full
transparency and citizen oversight.
