[dbeach]

I think the death camps are not yet built BUT this is a sure warning that the "alarmists" may be correct and BIG BRO is gonna build em and use em...<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/february2006/010206detentioncamps.htm">www.prisonplanet.com/arti...ncamps.htm</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>"Halliburton Detention Camps For Political Subversives<br><br>In another shining example of modern day corporate fascism, it was announced recently that Halliburton subsidiary Kellogg, Brown and Root had been awarded a $385 million dollar contract by Homeland Security to construct detention and processing facilities in the event of a national emergency.<br><br>The language of the preamble to the agreement veils the program with talk of temporary migrant holding centers, but it is made clear that the camps will also be used "as the development of a plan to react to a national emergency."<br><br>Discussions of federal concentration camps is no longer the rhetoric of paranoid Internet conspiracy theorists, it is mainstream news.<br><br>Under the enemy combatant designation anyone at the behest of the US government, even if they are a US citizen, can be kidnapped and placed in an internment facility forever without trial.

Frankly speaking, the American people have been asking for this.<br><br>They allowed their government to creats a fictitious category - enemy combatant.<br><br>They allowed their government to write the definition - one without Geneva protection.<br><br>The American people will reap what they have sown. <p></p><i></i>

anti, to be more precise, dissidents will reap what fascists have sown. Parapolitical progressives and libertarians have desperately been trying to warn citizens of this eventuality for years.<br>All Bush lovers have to do to stay out of the camps is continue what they are already doing, spouting the party line and praising "Dear Leader", the same way all "good Germans" stayed out of the camps.<br> <p></p><i></i>

sunny, Yes, of course you are right. It's just so frustrating, when I wrote this to Janet Reno on 29 May 2000<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>...

<br>These plans have been around since Reagan (and Ollie North). My recollection is they were planning to use them for dissidents when they invaded Nicaragua.<br><br> In 1979, under President Carter, FEMA was officially created with a single stroke of a pen by Executive Order 1-2148. However, Ronald Reagan elevated FEMA to intelligence agency status by giving the National Security Council authority over the planning for civil defense policy and security. Reagan created a senior-level interdepartmental board, the Emergency Mobilization Preparedness Board, or EMPB, a precursor to the cabinet-level Office of Homeland Security. The EMPB was charged with coordinating plans for civil security.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.nogw.com/articles/fearing_fema.html">www.nogw.com/articles/fearing_fema.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br> <p></p><i></i>
