Apocalyse Now

[DogPoundPup]

Of course, it is easier to manipulate the figurehead of a system if he is so insane that he will continue serving the insane elite faction which is his true master, no matter how low his approval ratings get or how isolated he is internationally.

The minions read the unspoken cues of the system loud and clear: the elites want a police state in Amerikkka and they want it now.

That's why the "Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act," which would put some of the finishing touches on home-grown fascism by codifying Orwell's chilling prediction of "thoughtcrime," is curently under consideration in the Senate after having recently passed the House by 404-6 with no debate or media attention. With the next false flag terror incident, it will fly through the Senate faster than greased lightning.

That's why reactionary scumfucking technicians of misery like John Yoo are rewarded with prestigious academic positions after providing the legal niceties to justify the torture desired at the apex of Amerikkkan government, torture that even includes interrogative drugs, harkening back to the bad old days of MK-Ultra. A few bad apples my ass.

Yoo's Dean at the University of California Boalt Hall School of Law refuses to contenance firing or even sanction of Yoo.

Someone should remind Distinguished Dean Edley about the law. The Constitution makes ratified international treaties the "supreme law of the land" in Amerikkka. Therefore, Yoo is clearly a war criminal for drafting a memo that attempted to justify the aborgation of the Geneva Conventions. One would think that criminal conduct aiding and abetting crimes against humanity in violation of constitutional obligations might trump "academic freedom."

1. No argument here.. . . . .n/t

2. That sounds about right to me.

When they start rounding up the dissidents and putting them in those shiny new concentration camps, who will we complain to?

There won't be anyone, anywhere, that we can call for help. All the failsafe mechanisms have been disabled.

They have held hundreds of people without charges for more than five years. No one can help them.

A new species is created, through apartheid, in which these animals were never endowed by their creator with any unalienable rights.

What will we be able to do when they start rounding up some of our friends? Seriously. Who do we point our pitchforks at?

Does anybody know? Any ideas?

3. You're describing "Operation End Game"

which is a DHS plan to round up tens of thousands of "immigrants" and lock them up in newly built KBR detention facilities based on, it freely admits, legal precedents "first articulated in the Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798."

Which is a supped up version of Ollie North's Plan REX-84

4. Don't forget the Civilian Inmate Labor Program.

Soon, civilian contractors will be hiring active service personnel to help sign them up for a slave labor work force. It's true.

I found Section 4-2, concerning media coverage, especially chilling:

4–2. Media coverage

Any media coverage involving inmates participating in the Civilian Inmate Labor Program, or involving onpost civilian inmate prison camps, will be reported through command channels to HQ, IMA (SFIMPL), and HQDA, Office of the Chief of Public Affairs, Public Communications Division (SAPA–PCD). Report media source (newspaper, magazine, radio, television), name of media source (and radio and/or television channel), date of coverage, synopsis of report, and whether the report had local, regional, or national coverage. Provide copies of the article and/or script, if available.

Why would they have this requirement to report media coverage in a free society? It's creepy. And it can't be good.

5. I especially like this part

"(1)Providing a source of labor at no direct labor cost to Army installations to accomplish tasks that would not be
possible otherwise due to the manning and funding constraints under which the Army operates."

What work would that be? Stocking shelves at the PX? Peeling potoatos all day?

But, really they're just thinking of the immates . . .

(2) Providing meaningful work for inmates and, in some cases, additional space to alleviate overcrowding in nearby
corrections facilities."

Bless their hearts.

6. Sure, it will give some meaning to their lives....

...that and the retraining and reorientation.
