The US military is prohibited by LAW from operating inside the US.

Bsides,the police SWAT teams,FBI and BATF-troop are all very close to
military capabilities.Now the National Guard (considered today's militia)
could be deployed.
Although,IMO,they are merely part of the ordinary US military.
Which makes one wonder a bit about Delta and SEAL 6. They were counter
terrorism units, but where were they supposed to operate? They couldn't
operate in the US, and a lot of other countries wouldn't let them
through, let alone operate in their country.
Were they available for the olympics (LA and Atlanta)? Or was that
solely an FBI (et al) thing?
