Analyst's note:  This is the official and fascinating statement, recorded April 28, 2014, from the Oath Keepers regarding the Bundy Ranch defense situation.  It includes the straight talk regarding intelligence (or possible psyops) from within Department of Defense on a predicted drone strike by the U.S. federal government as well as issues with a few non-Constitutional, confrontational "Mountain Men militia" playing war in the area, to include physical blows, a potential gunfights, thievery and other "Hollywood posturing" resulting in a deteriorating camp.  (Note:  FLIR is thermal imaging infrared cameras)

Please understand that Oath Keepers are NOT a militia organization.  In this situation they provided communications (amateur radio), scouts, money and other supplies.  This is an on-going battle for America.

Oath Keepers is a non-partisan association of current and formerly serving military, police, and first responders  who pledge to fulfill the oath all military and police take to “defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” That oath, mandated by Article VI of the Constitution itself, is to the Constitution, not to the politicians, and Oath Keepers declare that they will not obey unconstitutional orders, such as orders to disarm the American people, to conduct warrantless searches, or to detain Americans as “enemy combatants” in violation of their ancient right to jury trial.See the Oath Keepers Declaration of Orders We Will Not Obey for details.

Oath Keepers reaches out to both current serving and veterans to remind them of their oaths, to teach them more about the Constitution they swore to defend, and to inspire them to defend it.
