Review of Military's Domestic Role Urged

Deputy Defense Secretary Paul D. Wolfowitz said
yesterday that to enhance the nation's ability
to counter terrorism, he strongly favors
reviewing a legal doctrine that has kept the
U.S. military from engaging in domestic law
enforcement activities since 1878.

Testifying before the Senate Armed Services
Committee, Wolfowitz said the Sept. 11 attacks
on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon have
made it possible for Americans to envision
terrorist attacks -- particularly those involving
chemical or biological weapons -- in which the
military would have unique response capabilities.

Wolfowitz's comment came in response to a question
from Sen. John W. Warner (R-Va.), the committee's
ranking Republican. Warner told Wolfowitz that he
believes it is time to reexamine the legal
doctrine of posse comitatus and asked the
Pentagon's second-ranking official whether he
agreed.

"I agree very strongly," Wolfowitz said. He added
that it would be much better to determine in
advance how the military would function under
civilian control in the event of terrorist
incident.

nipples and gives them a mighty twist."

IN the 1980's as part of the "War on Drugs", the Governors were authorized to
have their State National Guard Units to assist police in any Drug opperation,
This included use of Night Vision, signal intelligance assets, (thought most
military assets are not uslful against phone traffic, the Modern Radio
Intercept equipemtn is quit capable) and the use of military equipment by
Police is drug raids, There have case where Police have used M113's from
National Guard units to assult large meth labs thta are suspected of being
heavyly armed.

The Signal Unit I was in in the Guard used to have people regulary help DEA and
Customs at the Port of Wilmington, DE
