WARGAME in DC: Midnight air defense scramble in skies over DC
"Fighter jets have been quietly scrambled in the skies above the nation’s capital to run air defense “Falcon Virgo” from midnight until 2:00 am this week.

The Department of Defense announced Exercise Falcon Virgo on Monday, a program intended to test and refine the intercept and identification operations of NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command -- the organization that safeguards U.S. airspace in collaboration with homeland defense, security, and law enforcement partners."

"Kicking off December 4, NORAD and the Continental United States NORAD Region (CONR), began conducting an air defense exercises planning to conclude early Thursday."

It is illegal to commence military exercises over public land unless it is advertised via media and the local police are well notified in advance.

If this is suddenly created, it is a cover story for a REAL event.

Chalk up another point for shit hitting the fan.

Too many coincidences, and they ain't coincidences anymore.
