[Note: The marching orders which follow which instruct self-proclaimed
"militia" extremists to conduct an armed attack on Washington was
recalled just days before it was scheduled.  Linda Thompson now admits
that she had no intention of launching the attack.

The most likely reason for this hoax was to get extremists around the
country wound-up to the point where they would actually take their guns
to Washington and "arrest" the government even though Thompson and her
cult could later deny any involvement or culpability for what happens
by demanding that they called it off.  (It's a shame that some just
didn't get the news, huh? - Fredric . Rice, The Skeptic Tank]

Subj:  AEN ALERT / MILITIA ALERT !

********** AEN ALERT ********** IMPORTANT ********** AEN ALERT *********
   ***********  COPY AND FORWARD THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY  ***********

    Every member of the United States House of Representatives and
Senate are this week being delivered an ultimatum that demands that each
of them personally take the initiative to revoke unconstitutional
legislation and initiate an inquiry into Waco.  A copy of the Ultimatum
follows in the next message.

    All MILITIA units will convene in Washington, D.C. the second full
week that the Congress is in session in September to enforce this
mandate and to deliver copies of the Declaration of Independence to the
White House.

    All units will be armed and prepared to enforce this mandate.  This
is exactly what it sounds like.

    **NOTE:  MILITIA UNITS MUST WEAR IDENTIFYING INSIGNIA AND BE ARMED.
If you are armed and wear a military insignia identifying you as a
member of a military unit, if captured, you must be treated as a
Prisoner of War, not as a criminal arrestee, by law.

    We have five months to get in shape and be prepared to restore this
country's liberty.  Mentally and physically, we must be ready, willing,
and able, to do the job.

    I have personally signed the ultimatum to be delivered to Congress,
as John Hancock said, in handwriting so large that the King cannot
mistake my identity.  No other persons are or will be identified,
however, please feel free to copy and issue the ultimatum to Congress
yourself.

    A copy of the ultimatum follows in the next message.

    Additionally, a signed Declaration of Independence will be delivered
to the White House on the day the militia convenes in Washington, D.C.
in September, very likely with millions of signatures.

    Below the initial 100 signers' names which are affixed on the
original, we will attach every page of signatures obtained between now
and September.  Please circulate the Declaration of Independence and
obtain signatures throughout the country through every means possible
and return to AJF, 3850 S. Emerson Ave., Suite E, Indianapolis, IN
46203.

    We will be air-dropping this information throughout the country and
distributing it through churches, gun shows, etc. All national media
have been provided copies as well.

    Please distribute all pages of the Militia Alert, Ultimatum, and
Declaration of Independence everywhere.  Make thousands of copies.  Put
them out in grocery stores, wherever you can think of.

    More pilot volunteers, printers, and funding for the distribution of
the Declaration of Independence are needed.

    Whether I am arrested or killed in the interim has no bearing on the
preparations of the militia units, the ultimatum, or the Declaration of
Independence throughout this country.

    Proceed as planned, plan accordingly, and God bless us all.

Linda Thompson
Acting Adjutant General
UMUS, pursuant to
10 USC  311
Articles I and II, Bill of Rights, Constitution of the United States of
America
