Putting 5,000,000 on ICE...

I always doubted the stories that I read on some of the less mainstream websites that claim that there are detention camps for millions just waiting to be activated at short notice. If there are two things to learn from history it's that we learn nothing from it and that it repeats itself with gay abandon. In the current climate of paranoia and fear that infects the US the people there have proven they will suffer any indignity if it makes them feel a little bit safer.

I have changed my mind about the existence of these camps because of the publically available 'Endgame' document from the Department of Homeland Security. If you don't believe me then click here and get a copy for yourself. You will need to have or download Acrobat Reader(free) to be able to view Endgame.

Most people will look at this document, take it at face value and justify to themselves that the ability to incarcerate 5,000,000 people is OK because the people targeted wont be US citizens or that they will be illegal immigrants. If you think about it that figure is massive and there is no way that it could be for the temporary incarceration of illegals. If you look at the Endgame strategy and put it in concert with the yet to be PATRIOT ACT II which can strip you of your citizenship at the stroke of a pen for what were once constitutionally protected actions then you can see how it may all tie together. Public Dissent could get you executed if PATRIOT II passes. Can you smell the roses yet?

Even if I am wrong (and I hope I am) people need to take a good hard look at the legislation, strategies, and agendas that are rapidly being formulated and made law. PATRIOT II is one piece of legislation that needs to be flushed. For more info on the PATRIOTs click here and here.
