I.C.E. at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy!?

 What is the purpose of ICE at the Olympics?  It is a threatening high profile criminal  "special force" that is the current U.S.A. administration's apparently lawless  "special force".   The criminal organization, ICE, has arbitrarily killed American citizens for no reason, when their supposed job is immigrants - who they also have criminally killed and jailed.

An online discussion about what Italy thinks about the problem of ICE showing up at the Olympics, included a person named "Errol" speaking on behalf of U.S.A..  When asked to comment about the name change of the U.S. Olympic house from "ICE House" to "Winter House" he stated some nonsense about it being unnecessary unless people had a negative attitude.  Then he said ICE was there to work against terrorism with international organizations, after it was already stated they were there to protect the VP's family.  Really?  Both sound like bogus prevarications, no one could believe.  Who was  he trying to fool?  The Italians did not buy it.

Why would the Italians who are hosting the Olympics not have a "negative. along with everyone else, about about U.S.A.'s I.C.E. agents showing up at the Olympics to supposedly protect the VP?  People worldwide know about the ICE criminal actions in U.S.A. so would anyone not consider it a very thinly veiled threat on the part of the current U.S. Administration, for ICE to be at the Olympics?  The Italians have a right to respond with fury, so does everyone else, given the criminality of ICE.

Why would ICE be protecting the VP's family at the Olympics instead of secret service agents assigned to them who are ordinarily not high profile.  Again what is the purpose of a threatening high profile criminal "special force" that is criminally used by the current U.S.A. administration?  

ICE, has become a criminal organization in U.S.A. that has arbitrarily killed American citizens for no reason, when their supposed job is immigration - which has also resulted in ICE killing people they have rounded up, or jailing them whether they were immigrants, citizens, tourists, or children - very young children in some cases?  How do we know those disappeared children about which there is supposedly no accountability, have not ended up as fodder for Epstein type crimes, which there is little doubt continue with other folks at the helm?  There needs to be accountability, especially for the children.

We have intelligence agencies that coordinate internationally on foreign soil.  The criminal organization ICE is not known to be one of them.  While it should be coordinating with other nations about undocumented immigrants in U.S.A., the agents have no business showing up on foreign soil, because of course it is perceived as threatening, given the ICE crimes openly perpetrated in U.S.A.  And then the excuses offered are about protecting the VP, and working with international terrorist organizations too?  The prevaricating makes ICE presence more threatening.

The Administration is apparently trying to gaslight the world about ICE presence.  An online exchange among people, noted that it is not the ICE ground troops being deployed to beat protesters, like in Minnesota (as if beating is .permissible, with no mention of murder which is worse).  It continued saying that ICE at the Olympics is a division of DHS known as "Homeland Security Investigations" that technically falls under ICE."  That sounds like totally bogus nonsense, with layer upon layer of individual departments all under DHS, then under other layers within DHS too. 

The quote is cited in an article at NBC News along with the claim of ICE being there to protect the VP and his family that states "Homeland Security Investigations is an investigative arm of DHS, and though it technically falls under ICE, it focuses on investigating transnational crime and issues with global trade or financial systems.”  We already had and still have a variety of three letter investigative agencies whose job that is.  We did not need new ones in addition, that do the same work, except they are blatantly criminal without oversight.  However, the media will report anything it is told to, unfortunately, to satisfy U.S. hybrid diversified, international, corporate conglomerate/government demands, as if it is not something that should rightfully become an investigative journalism series. 

It is the collective responsibility of we, the people, to police our own government, especially in times like these when the entire world is being threatened in some way, at least verbally, by what is difficult to describe in any other way than by a "rogue U.S. administration".  We are clearly not taking enough responsibility, collectively, as citizens.

What exactly is the new supposed international division of ICE that "technically" is a division of DHS, under ICE control?  Does Congress know anything about it, or was Congress bypassed, again, to prevent it from doing it's job?  Americans, and now people everywhere, are tired of DHS being used as a catch all for any and all crimes perpetrated by the current U.S. administration.  The numerous crimes are obviously being  perpetrated under the umbrella of "The Patriot Act". 

The Patriot Act was supposed to have been temporary when it was a bill created in Congress more than 20 years ago.  It did not have adequate oversight at the time to prevent it from being used criminally against anyone, including American citizens or people in other nations.  It was created in reaction to  9/11, and specifically stated in news reports that its purpose was not to be used against Americans,  though it could be.  Well, apparently it is now also being used as an unjustifiable excuse to target people beyond our borders - in their own nations.  

Worse there is an entire generation of young adult voters, some in their mid 20s by now, who have probably never heard of the Patriot Act, which was created before they were born.  All who wonder when fascism "officially" started growing into what we see today in U.S.A., need look no further than "the Patriot Act" and it's criminal abuses.  It apparently was not temporary, and was always intended to  criminally target Americans and citizens of other nations, also, in their own nations.

Obviously a variety of ramifications are associated with the issue regarding ICE being at the Olympics.  The worst of them is how ICE presence is now being used to threaten people in other nations with its presence in their nations.  Normal Americans are and should be aghast and ashamed regarding the lawlessness of the current rogue U.S. administration.  It has been violating so frequently that  Congress can not keep up with the overwhelming amount of work it creates for them, all of which is  litigious. 

Aguilar Interview Reveals Rampant War Crimes at Gaza Food Distribution Site

Thank you Amy Goodman, Democracy Now!, and retired Colonel Anthony Aguilar, for the interview: I watched this Monday morning 28 July when it was only an interview with Aguilar, before final editing, entitled Former Green Beret Who Worked at Gaza Food Sites Reveals Rampant War Crimes.

Credit to the Palestinian people on the ground in Gaza who have been reporting this from the start, including via their phone videos as it happens; also medical personnel, aide folks, and journalists who have also been reporting the same which they have personally witnessed.

Additional verification from an articulate retired soldier may reach people who - unfortunately - might not choose to believe what is said by anyone else who diverges from the false narrative coming from the Israeli government and its supporters in our nation.

Some of the needed answers to questions that arose in an earlier brief TikTok from Aguilar, that circulated, are answered in the interview.

This is the brief description of the episode at the Democracy Now! YouTube channel:

As more than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed seeking aid at militarized aid distribution sites run by the U.S.- and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a former GHF security contractor tells Democracy Now! he saw U.S. mercenaries and Israeli forces commit war crimes by indiscriminately shooting at starving Palestinians waiting for aid. "What I witnessed in Gaza, I can only describe as a dystopian, post-apocalyptic wasteland," says Anthony Aguilar, a retired U.S. soldier who worked as a subcontractor with UG Solutions in the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation aid delivery operation. "We, the United States, are complicit. We are involved, hand in hand, in the atrocities and the genocide that is currently undergoing in Gaza."

Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on over 1,500 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday. (It's live streams can be viewed at democracynow.org Mondays to Fridays 8-9 a.m. ET.

A subsequent short video excerpt,  IDF Shoots Boy Moments after Receiving Aid from US Soldier is posted at OnePathNetwork on Instagram where Aguilar talks about a horrendous experience - a child having been shot almost immediately after he had touched Aguilar's soul, grateful for the food he had been given. It is accompanied by OnePathNetwork's following comment (if the video does not link it may be necessary to search at that profile):

Amir did not just “die”. He was killed by the IOF

IOF Shoots Boy Moments after Receiving Aid from [retired] US Soldier In a heartbreaking moment shared on a recent podcast, a [retired] US soldier recounted a scene that continues to haunt him from his time stationed at the GHF aid distribution point in Gaza.

Amir, a frail child, barefoot, walked 12 kilometres under the sun to reach the distribution point. He only received a handful of rice and lentils from the ground. He approached me, kissed my hand, and said: "Thank you." Minutes later, as he was leaving with the rest of the civilians, the Israeli army fired gas and bullets, and Amir was killed on the spot.

Scenes like this are not isolated. Aid distribution centres in Gaza have become death traps, where more than 1,050 Palestinians have been killed while trying to access food, many deliberately targeted with tear gas and live ammunition by Israeli forces and American private security contractors.

The lies and hypocrisy about what has been reported by Israel, are both different than the actual intentional harm being done (i.e. killing people, including children). Lies and hypocrisy are  part of what u.s.a. soldiers swear an oath to defend our Constitution against, thus defending our rule of law nation and people empowered with democratic process by our constitution.

Soldiers serving, and veterans, alike, are able to recognize what is and is not an illegal order, and are expected to be wary of illegal orders while serving - especially those given by "contractors" (exemplified by the Abu Gharib crimes), and by people in the military of other nations. Our people are well aware of what is illegal according to both UCMJ and u.s.a. laws,.

Good thing u.s.a. troops are not "officially" involved in the GHF front for murdering Palestinians to whom food is being distributed, unless they are there allegedly "distributing food" on personal tourist visas for the purpose of accompanying the IDF (as "tourists" - referencing the Democracy Now! interview above) while they kill Palestinians who are trying to survive picking up the food being distributed.

Dual citizen u.s.a. Reserves who are American Israelis and called up to serve by Israel in  the IDF should not be following those orders either because of being Americans. Otherwise they should be prepared to stand trial (IF they return to U.S.A.) for the crimes they commit as u.s.a. citizens and/or as service members - if they are still serving in the u.s.a. reserves too.

The same should long ago have been applying, also, to dual citizen American Settlers living in oPT who are routinely killing Palestinians, destroying their crops and homes.  And it should apply to all u.s.a. civilians who are there on tourist visas when they commit crimes.

The sane hard-line being taken by Canada is a good example for our nation to follow.
