Having served in the U.S. Army, I can understand why military officials have a goal to see if groups of Special Forces can move around a civilian population without being noticed and can handle various threat scenarios. In military science classes or in my years on active duty, I have participated in or observed military exercises; however, we never named an existing city or state as a "hostile." We would use fictitious names before we would do such a thing.

Once I observed the map depicting 'hostile,' 'permissive,' and 'uncertain' states and locations, I was rather appalled that the hostile areas amazingly have a Republican majority, 'cling to their guns and religion,' and believe in the sanctity of the United States Constitution. When the federal government begins, even in practice, games or exercises, to consider any U.S. city or state in 'hostile' control and trying to retake it, the message becomes extremely calloused and suspicious.

I cannot fathom the need for Jade Helm as designed.  Heck, even Montana, with a polulation of less than 1,000,000 has the Limestone Hills Training Area which is 5miles by 7.5 miles (over 71,000 acres) in area. There are MASSIVE training areas available to them, and it would not take a great deal to cobble up an urban area within one of those.  In fact, I am certain there are probably several which already exist.

Jade Helm is a psyop. The intent is to get the People used to seeing military personnel operating within their cities and neighborhoods.

Do you think we would have ever heard the end of it if California, Washington and Oregon had been labeled "Hostile"?

Really?

That's exactly how I see this.
The Marxists are notorious for breaking down barriers, from welfare, LGBT, overspending, they get the people used to immorality, corruption, make them feel they have no say in the matter, and bang!
History proves this to be true, and Jade Helm is no different.

I can't help but be struck with the similarities between what is happening in America today, and the turmoil that brought about the end of Germany's Wiemar Republic.

I wonder if history isn't repeating itself, and if Christians/Conservatives are the new Jews...
