War games, or simulated combat exercises, will be taking place across Washington state's coastal areas by the Navy SEALs starting in mid-January. The military training exercises have been quite controversial because Navy SEALs will be using private and public land, raising concerns about regulation as well as what our guest, Dahr Jamail calls domestic military expansionism into public areas:
