DoomsdaysCW<p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TigerSwan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TigerSwan</span></a> Former Delta Operator sought to incite violence at the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DakotaAccessPipeline" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DakotaAccessPipeline</span></a> <br> <br>by Jack Murphy Feb 26, 2018 </p><p>“’Everyone just saw <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/oil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oil</span></a> and saw dollar signs,' a security contractor who worked on the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DAPL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DAPL</span></a> project told SOFREP before commenting that Reese, 'wants to be the next <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ErikPrince" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ErikPrince</span></a>.' At one point, TigerSwan was making a million dollars in profit per month while working on DAPL. No one at the company wanted to see that spigot turn off so some employees provoked the protesters in order to prolong the conflict. ETP was unaware of this as their director of security, Eric Lyons, was inexperienced and took whatever TigerSwan said at face value.</p><p>“Another incident took place when Porter ordered several ex-Rangers to do penetration tests of the protester camps by driving a pickup truck right through their perimeter lines. The former Rangers blasted into Camp 3 where many of the more radical <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NativeAmericans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NativeAmericans</span></a> were known to be and made a loop through the camp. As protesters moved their vehicles to close off the entrance and trap them, the Rangers drove over a snow bank and escaped. Next, they drove down to Camp 1 and repeated the same tactic. This time the Native Americans drove after them and they got into a high-speed pursuit down the road.</p><p>“This action resulted in the women and children vacating the camps, while those remaining went up to 100% security and prepared for law enforcement and security contractors to come clear the camps, which was never going to happen. The <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/protesters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>protesters</span></a> simply burned through resources and the native American tribe was not in a position to help them since they had spent the water protector donations to the tune of 3.2 million dollars in order to settle their casino debts. </p><p>“‘I know for a fact that the money went into a lot of people’s pockets,' said Eddie Stormcloud who was a leader in one of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterProtector" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterProtector</span></a> camps and attended many closed-door sessions with the tribal council. Stormcloud also told SOFREP that the true amount of money was closer to nine million dollars rather than the 3.2 reported.&nbsp; At the end of the day, it seemed that everyone was cashing in on the situation at <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/StandingRock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StandingRock</span></a>.</p><p>“‘Porter’s real goal was to keep this thing going as long as possible,' a former TigerSwan employee told SOFREP. 'Some of the protesters wanted to do big actions because they would get more media coverage and more funding. TigerSwan wanted it to happened because their contract would be prolonged. Meanwhile, ETP had no idea.' </p><p>“One of the first contractors on the ground at <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DAPL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DAPL</span></a> told SOFREP that, 'when TigerSwan came on that was when the shit show started. They came in with this military ideology when it was a police operation. They were almost willing to go in and do things that RGT [Russel Group] would never do because you can’t by law. So the oil company looked to TigerSwan as the authority and a lot of guys went over to them.' </p><p>“The security contractor continued, saying that TigerSwan had an attitude of, 'we are going to walk into a room with a bunch of thugs and will be the biggest thug in the room.' </p><p>“‘They are trying to prolong this as a cash cow,' another contractor lamented.</p><p>“TigerSwan sent an unsigned and undated document from a nameless e-mail address to SOFREP denying the contents of this article. &nbsp;It reads in part, 'The claims you make have no basis in reality and are completely made up.' &nbsp;The document goes on to state, 'At no time were there any approved operations outside of the scope of the contract. Just like any dynamic organization, the client’s enterprise team for DAPL would come up with creative ideas to do their jobs differently, but nothing outside the scope of the contract was ever approved.'</p><p>"A legacy brought home from <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Iraq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Iraq</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Afghanistan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Afghanistan</span></a>: The conflict at Standing Rock created a number of precedents for the future of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/protests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>protests</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/counterprotest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>counterprotest</span></a> actions. While companies like <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Blackwater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Blackwater</span></a> were private military companies operating abroad, TigerSwan brought the tactics that contractors and soldiers use in Baghdad to American soil for the first time. </p><p>“'Someone is going to get shot, and then a bunch of people are going to get shot, and then we are going to have a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WoundedKnee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WoundedKnee</span></a> III. That’s going to reflect badly on the national guard, on law enforcement, and certainly on private security contractors,' Landon Steele said. 'Guys need to be really leery and really careful and ask the really hard questions when a contract holder calls them and says we have a contract here in the US.' </p><p>“Today, TigerSwan employs contractors running static and roving security patrols for the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MarinerEast2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MarinerEast2</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ME2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ME2</span></a> pipeline being built in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Pennsylvania" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pennsylvania</span></a> by <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ETP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ETP</span></a>. The company also has eyes on the Atlantic pipeline and would like to bid on upcoming security contracts that will need to be fulfilled for the project. </p><p>“TigerSwan’s internal security assessments anticipate protests when the Atlantic pipeline is run through North Carolina and West Virginia.”</p><p>Full article:<br><a href="https://sofrep.com/news/tigerswan-former-delta-operator-sought-to-incite-violence-at-the-dakota-access-pipeline/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">sofrep.com/news/tigerswan-form</span><span class="invisible">er-delta-operator-sought-to-incite-violence-at-the-dakota-access-pipeline/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterIsLife</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BigOil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BigOil</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OilAndGasIndustry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OilAndGasIndustry</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoDAPL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoDAPL</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRights</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Covert" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Covert</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Corporatism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Corporatism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Corporatocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Corporatocracy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Corruption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Corruption</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Colonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Colonialism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ACAB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ACAB</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Activism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Activism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnvironmentalJustice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EnvironmentalJustice</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ErikPrinceColonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ErikPrinceColonialism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CorporateColonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CorporateColonialism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Blackwater" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Blackwater</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TigerSwan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TigerSwan</span></a></p>

stonehead<p>Update; fascists may have announced that their appearance was a "counter protest", but in reality they didn't bring signs to the <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/A12" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>A12</span></a> in The Hague today. The group (mostly men) mostly turned out to want to confront, obstruct and demoralize the <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/XR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>XR</span></a> protesters, and some of them were armed and clothed for attacks and fights. According to <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/Amnesty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amnesty</span></a>'s Dutch definition, that is not a counter protest but a hostile audience, and that means that their "counter protest" should not be protected. </p><p>Journalists, however, don't seem to be able to make that difference, fearing to be called subjective. Twitter livereporter <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@chrisklomp71" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>chrisklomp71</span></a></span> chose to consistently name them "counter protesters", while quoting the Dutch police as calling them "a colourful mix of covidiots, far-right extremists and soccer hooligans".
