License to Kill

Gays as "domestic enemies," against whom the war power may be employed. That subversive "Oath of Enlistment"--linchpin of the secret US Constitution.

Students of US covert action (black ops) have long wondered whether there were an actual "license to kill," and if so, what form it took. While the authority to ISSUE kill orders may be a closely guarded secret, authority to carry them out--the actual license--is no more hidden than Mount Rushmore. It is statutory, contained in the Oath of Office taken by every officer or employee of the federal government--except the President, whose Oath is prescribed by the Constitution itself [5 USC Sec. 3331].

"I, Terry Matthew Helvey, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all ENEMIES, foreign and DOMESTIC; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will OBEY THE ORDERS of the President of the United States AND THE ORDERS of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God." [emphasis added]

This is the Oath of Enlistment prescribed by statute, Title 10 USC Sec. 502. Notes to that statute indicate a 1962 amendment, effective 5 October 1963, substituting "all enemies, foreign and domestic" for "all their enemies whomsoever." Part of the 1962 amendment also adds the obligation to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States," but ONLY against "enemies, foreign and domestic."

Kindly note the Oath quoted above does NOT conform to the US Constitution, Art. VI, Par. 3, requiring an unqualified Oath or Affirmation "to support this Constitution." Instead, this Oath requires support and defense of the Constitution against "enemies," only--"foreign and domestic" enemies being afforded equal status.

Who are the "domestic enemies" of the US Constitution, or for that matter, the "foreign" ones? Who determines these enemies; how they are to be dealt with; what "process," if any, is "due" them, before one can dispatch them? Evidently, both kinds of enemies are to be identified to enlisted personnel by "the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me"--all of which orders the enlisted man or woman swears to "obey." The fit of the two clauses is PERFECT.
