Advanced Fort Redoubt - Pensacola, Fla. Note the outer ring.
One of my favorite historic sites near my hometown is Advanced Fort Redoubt built a few years prior to the Civil War. Its purpose was to protect the rear of a much larger fort protecting the entrance to the bay, thus the term "Redoubt" meaning protective barrier or secured retreat. The amazing thing about the fort is that for the most part it is built underground or into the hillsides.
Note the outer ring forming a dry moat and providing covering fire on the main fortress outer walls. The only way into the ring is through an underground tunnel from the main fort. In order to capture the main fortress of the Redoubt, you must first capture the outer ring.
Of great interest to me is that if the invaders were to penetrate the outer ring and overwhelm it, the invaders would still lose. That is because the ring was designed to be quickly evacuated then the entire structure would be exploded killing all in and near it. So even if you win you lose; a hell of a predicament for the invaders.
Please listen carefully to Catherine Austin Fitts interview at 80 minute Audio. She says that reigning in the bankers is not the end of the problem. The real problem is that our economic system no longer works.
We are now required to use our imaginations to create a new social and economic system.We will never be able to go back to what we had prior to the Banksters taking our $17 Trillion. Our pensions and SSI funds have been gutted. We no longer have investment capital. Our legal system and contracting ability are worthless as a result of the acceptance of fraud. We are in a predicament.
I share all of this with you for a reason. Perhaps the military is reluctant to step in because they too are in that same predicament. As soon as they step in we will believe our problem has been resolved when in fact it will just begin to grow exponentially as our economic system crashes and the military has no replacement. Three hundred million people will be looking at the military for an answer to our predicament and their predicament will be they have no answer.

UPDATE 9/26/2026
The above situation is still true. Today we see many groups fighting for the chairs nearest to the stuffed pig on the table about to be served. What all those waring parties do not realize is the massive change coming down as a result of our species evolving into the 5th Dimension Reality.
That alone will end the wars and turn the banquet into a buffet affair.
