Reconstructing Tyranny

In the March 22nd edition of The Times Online, there is an article describing how a new machine is being used to put together the 600 million of pieces of shredded documents that make up the records of the former East German Stasi, a secret police force that employed 91,000 agents, as well as thousands more informants to spy on friends, neighbors, fellow workers and family members in East Germany.

I thought it would be interesting for PPJG readers to see this, since our own government is effectively duplicating the Stasi here in America, currently, with the Obama Youth Corps, tens of thousands of newly hired Census takers, Infragard (created by the Bush Administration to recruit employers and business owners to spy on their employees, who might be “terrorists”), thousands of TSA workers, not to mention the Department of Homeland Security’s state and local “fusion center” workers.

The federal government in an open war against Americans

It’s all there at every turn.  Bills to overtake the food supply and production.  Bills to put a kill switch on the internet. Bills to make our thoughts “crimes”.  More bills to take away our right to bear arms.  Bills to tag and track us like animals.  Bills to seize control of the water supplies.  Bills forcing us into compliance with illegal trade agreements.  Bills, bills, everywhere bills……and all of them dedicated to the overthrow of the Republic and the subjugation of the population.  If any of us had any doubts, surely in light of these assaults on liberty, the attempts to seize control of the food and water supplies and to deem any one of us as “domestic terrorists” for dissenting, these should wake us up to the reality of the future we all face.

FBI Deputizes Private Contractors With Extraordinary Powers, Including “Shoot to Kill”

By Matthew Rothschild, The Progressive. Posted February 8, 2008.

Excerpted:

   The FBI has a new set of eyes and ears, and they’re being told to protect their infrastructure at any cost.  They can even kill without repercussion.

  

This business owner says he attended a small InfraGard meeting where agents of the FBI and Homeland Security discussed in astonishing detail what InfraGard members may be called upon to do. “The meeting started off innocuously enough, with the speakers talking about corporate espionage,” he says. “

From there, it just progressed. All of a sudden we were knee deep in what was expected of us when martial

law is declared. We were expected to share all our resources, but in return we’d be given specific benefits.”

These included, he says, the ability to travel in restricted areas and to get people out. But that’s not all.

“Then they said when — not if — martial law is declared, it was our responsibility to protect our portion of the

infrastructure, and if we had to use deadly force to protect it, we couldn’t be prosecuted,” he says.

When did we become the enemy?

After watching the avalanche of infringements on our civil liberties since 9/11 I can only conclude that it is American citizens who have become a threat to “national security”.  It is also apparent to me that what you or I think of as national security is not quite the same thing as the government’s perceptions. 

Through the Military Commissions Act we lost the writ of habeas corpus…the right to due process and to know what we are charged with and the right to mount a defense.  Now, just voicing an opposition to government policies can get you labeled as a “domestic terrorist”. 

The John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007 reinforced this loss of due process and gave the president the right to deem any one of us as domestic combatants, solely on his deciding that we are.  It also gave him the right to put our National Guards and Reserves under federal military control to use against us should he decide to.These two pieces in particular gutted the Posse Commitatus Act that forbid the use of any standing army of the United States to be used against the citizens. 

And just this last week, General Renaurt AF, signed the Civil Assistance Plan with Canada that will allow the Canadian Military to be used against us on our own soil.  We have similar agreements with Mexico and Germany among others.  This assistance is needed in case we have a forest fire, earthquake, terrorist attack…..or civil revolt. 

The “Anti Terrorism and Homegrown Radicalization Act” S 1959 will make it an act of force and/or violence to rally, protest, or to gather in any way to try and change social, religious or political views.  To do so would mean that you are now a “radical”.  In the center of this unconstitutional bill is the groundwork for closing down entire sections of the internet.  Supposedly, we are so stupid and gullible that we are being exposed to extremist propaganda on the net every day and we need to be protected from that.  As a person who spends hours every day on the net researching legislation among other things, and have done so for years, I have never once seen or been exposed to any propaganda from any extremists other than those in our own government. 

 Homeland Security now has the Infragard….a coalition of about 23,000 individuals from the business sector who have been deputized to “defend the infrastructure in their area”, and have the right to shoot to kill without fear of prosecution when (not if) martial law is declared. 

Infragard works directly with the FBI and reports “suspicious” activities by employees, neighbors, and others.  And they are armed.The FBI is building a database that now includes about 60 million people, and intends to continue doing this with an end objective of about 20 billion individual files.  They also have a watch list data base with an estimated 300 thousand names on it of possible “suspects”.  

Obama’s “Global Poverty Tax” bill is on the floor of the senate now.  It allows the United Nations to assess a tax of .07% on our GDP…amounting to billions and billions of dollars to be taken from US taxpayers supposedly to fight poverty in third world countries.  Hidden in this piece of work is the intention to ban small arms….including hunting rifles and shotguns.  It would also make US citizens subject to international law, rather than our own courts. 

Even though this is a limited list of assaults on our liberty, does anyone see anything here that would have any affect on stopping terrorism?  Not one of these bills or agreements deals with anything other than stripping US citizens of their rights, and establishing a police state.  So who are these people that our government is so fearful of?  George Bush claimed at one time that he had looked the enemy in the eye……and apparently he was looking at us.
