This scares the hell out of me...

Here's a passage (any stylistics found are my additions):

GlobalResearch.ca wrote:

In August 2002, then Attorney General John Ashcroft called for American citizens who are deemed ‘enemy combatants’ to be detained indefinitely without charge and independently of the judiciary. [21] This legal position was upheld in the case of a US citizen detained abroad by the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in a January 2003 ruling. [22]

In October 2006 the Military Commissions Act was passed by Congress. [23] The legislation applies to non-US citizens and permits individuals labeled as ‘enemy combatants’ to be imprisoned indefinitely and without charge. It also denies non-military tribunal judicial review of detainment (Section 7), disregards international treaties such as the Geneva Convention, and states that it is the President who defines what constitutes torture (Sections 5 & 6).

In January of 2007 the American Civil Liberties Union released a report based on documents obtained by a Freedom of Information Act suit showing that the Pentagon had monitored at least “186 anti-military protests in the United States and collected more than 2,800 reports involving Americans in an anti-terrorist threat database.” [24]

For some time FEMA has been renovating and constructing new detention camps throughout the country. In January 2006 Haliburton subsidiary KBR announced that it had been awarded an “indefinite delivery / indefinite quantity contract to construct detention facilities for the Department of Homeland Security worth a maximum of $385 million over 5 years. [25]

Stated Purpose

Little has been said about the purpose of the detainment camps but when official comment has been made it has stated that the camps are for the temporary detainment of illegal immigrants. [26]

Quantity and Locations

Citizens who are concerned about the purpose and potential use of the detainment camps have documented and, when possible, filmed the detainment facilities. A current estimate of the number of detainment camps is over 800 located in all regions of the United States with varying maximum capacities. [27] If one includes government buildings currently used for other purposes the number is far greater. Video of renovated but empty detainment camps has also been released. [28]

I guess they were initially denying the existence of these camps, but I have yet to have anything but hearsay on that. On top of this, I also heard something about the military training Haitians for crowd control, some of the methods including severe beatings and even rape (either taught or just allowed, I don't know), but I haven't found anything on that either.

And people wonder why I'm paranoid, Ry. Either they're going to start rounding up illegals and sticking them in these, or they're going to start using them against 'dissidents'. As we all know, that word has always had a flexible meaning, as in 'whomever we don't like or doesn't agree with the party line'.

I don't have time to go completely into this right now, but this worries me at the bottom.

The official story is that they are for housing refugees in the case of national disasters, the conspiracy side is that they are for rounding up and executing people deemed enemies of the state, with the conspiracy side saying that everyone from constitutionalists to the middle / lower class / to Christians are the one who will be targeted by a supposed secret cabal of new world order yadda yadda boogeymen.

The part I don't get about the whole Illuminati International Banker Globalist Conspiracy to rid the world of the regular Joes is this: If they really are trying to kill everyone off with camps and supposed chemtrail poison and genetically modified food then why haven't they killed the conspiracy theorists for blowing the whistle, and who would they expect to do all the shit jobs that the supposedly targeted lower / middle classes do after they are gone? Makes no sense.

They have to round up the illegals somehow. As long as they aren't treated poorly, they need to be deported swiftly. People need to stop hiring illegal immigrants.

Ry, don't worry dude, this conspiracy has been around since the 1980's (a few sources say the 1970's) and has gained mainstream attention now thanks to youtube.

We'll be fine. Smile

Plus this site is terribly pro-CT.
