Bush's Gulags

Peppered throughout the United States, from sea to shining sea, tucked away in purple mountain majesties and fruited plains, are hundreds of civilian internment camps developed by the Department of the Army. Surrounded by chain link fences and topped with razor wire, they are more known by their common name, concentration camps.

The existence of the camps was verified by Henry Gonzales, a Democratic Representative from Texas. In an interview Gonzales responded to a question about a memo relating to a civilian prison labor program stating, "the truth is yes - you do have these stand by provisions, and the plans are here...whereby you could, in the name of stopping terrorism...evoke the military and arrest Americans and put them in detention camps."

With the Patriot Act in place and many provisions of Patriot Act 2 included in the new September 11 Intelligence Act waiting for final passage in the Senate, there will be someplace to put those "domestic terrorists" who dare to exercise their former First Amendment right of free speech to protest any of our government policies. In the 70s, a deputy District Attorney of California said at a conference, "that anyone who attacks the State, even verbally, becomes a revolutionary and an enemy by definition."

Who would enforce these Draconian measures? Surely Americans, so used to freedom, would be at a loss to implement policies that we've only read about in repressive regimes like the Soviet Union.

Our Department of Homeland Security has apparently solved that problem. Hired at taxpayer expense as a consultant is General Yevgeni Primikov. According to his resume he is highly qualified to ignore people's rights and freedoms since he is the former head of the KGB, the feared secret police of the Soviet Union. He is joined by Alexander Karpov, the former KGB Washington station chief and the first director of the Russian Federal Security Service.

Primikov said he was consulting with various U.S. government agencies to "consistently narrow the rights of the American people and to expand the power of government." He also admitted that "it doesn't have much to do with fighting terrorism."

The takeover of America and replacing the Constitution isn't a new concept. The Rockefellers and their elite allies have been planning it for more than 50 years. It has just taken George W. Bush and the cabal of Neo Cons in the White House to use 9-11 and the threat of terrorism to bring all the elements together ,while Americans not only accept these steps to destroy democracy in the name of national security, but applaud them.

What we are seeing with the erosion of our rights and freedoms and the help of the Soviet Secret Police is the birth of the New World Order. God bless America! R.I.P.
