an item, "Will Tow Icebergs to Market," that ran in the San Francisco Examiner on April 10, 1898. ... a serious business of towing icebergs from the Klondike to such countries in the southern seas as are in need of [ice water] ... if you happen to be gazing out over the ocean and see a huge iceberg go floating calmly by in tow of a puffing little tugboat, you may set down that remarkable spectacle to mean ... "icebergs were really placed at man’s disposal for some such purpose as we are putting them to," ... "They certainly have no visible reason for existence up North. It just looks as though they had been piled up there for man to make some wise use of, and it has taken man all these ages to get his eyes open and see what he could do with them."
My side of the prospective scenario is that we don't have to get icebergs from Alaska if that State objects. There are plenty of other free-floating icebergs within America's many miles of national boundary waters.
We won't know what Jade Helm is REALLY all about until it knocks on our front door and says "THIS IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT."
A group of soldiers drive 5 miles down a dusty lane and hike 1 mile past a driveway gate to a house just to tell the folks "Martial law is in effect! Don't leave your property!!"??? No.
