The FBI Is Waging War On Americans

The FBI Is Waging War On Americans

The FBI has been waging war on Americans for decades.  Occasionally their illegal and unconstitutional activities have been curtailed by congress and the courts.  Now that there is no separation of powers, the FBI and it's anti-American Attorney General, John Ashcroft, have pulled out the stops and are escalating their offensive.  The FBI seeks nothing less than to complete the transformation of the former United States of America into a police state.  Their first targets were Muslims and Arabs.  Anarchists have now become their latest target.  No doubt soon, they will be targeting American communists, socialists, progressives and libertarians with the same enthusiasm that they currently reserve for anarchists.

The FBI has a great deal of help in their anti-American campaign.  American fascists such as the Protest Warriors, members of "The FreeRepublic" (Orwellian double speak for "Brownshirts, Inc."), and numerous American surrogates for Israel's Likud have been enthusiastically joining the banquet of repression, gorging themselves on the carnage of the Constitution and assisting with the anti-American war against domestic freedom.  It's time to face cold reality - the former United States of America is in a state of civil war.  That war has already been declared in the form of the "PATRIOT" Act.  Whether or not you acknowledge this fact, you are involved.

Just prior to October, John Ashcroft's Gestapo announced a coming pogrom targeting Arabs, Muslims and American dissidents.  The pogrom, obviously, has been timed to impose political repression before the November elections and the intent is to effect the outcome of those elections in favor of the Dictator in Chief, George Bush.  This latest offensive in the civil war has included a wide range of weapons: psychological, memetic and political.  Hardly a day goes by when unsubstantiated and baseless threats to our security are announced by the FBI and Homeland Security.

The Government has deployed a new meme in their war to capture the elections in the form of the concept of the "Security Mom", a new idea currently being implanted in the minds of Americans through a coordinated program of articles by alleged "Security Moms" and false reports of potential terrorism against American children.  Clearly the intent is to move a larger number of female Americans into the Bush camp.  This, of course, is illogical because plenty of moms have been losing their sons and daughters in Bush's wars of aggression for nearly three years now.  The sign of a bad and pernicious meme is that it fails to benefit the individuals whom it infects.  The first to lose in the "War on Terror" are America's young and the second are their mothers, fathers, wives, husbands, sons and daughters.  Those mothers embracing this new and pernicious meme will be the victims of any win by pro-war forces.  The meme is intended to subvert their rational opposition to Bush.

Political repression is underway as well.  Radical radio stations are being shut down by the FCC.  The FBI and Secret Service (SS) have accelerated their "legal" harassment of Independent Media Centers through subpoenas and seizures of hard disks, thereby disrupting non-corporate media and creating a climate of fear and paranoia among members of the American left.  Individually owned websites have been targeted with quasi-private harassment and/or outright government based harassment.  Raise the Fist is one example.  My own former "Stop Fascism!" is another.  Other anarchist writers have been targeted too.

During the run-up to the DNC and RNC, the FBI unleashed its agents to personally intimidate anarchists across the country, pounding on their doors and demanding interviews.  Protesters in New York were rounded up like cattle and interned in a make-shift internment camp.  Citizens were randomly netted, detained and charged.  In the process of detaining them, the forces of oppression defied constitutional norms as well as court orders for quick release.  This is exactly why I refer to our government as the "former United States of America" for the current regime has no legal basis to exist.  It is the abnegation of its own foundation and is, therefore, baseless and illegal.

Americans who accept the proposition that our rights are inalienable are faced with a stark choice: struggle fiercely or perish.  We must recognize these times for what they are: a state of war by an illegally usurped government against Americans.  No terrorist poses a greater danger to us than "our own" government does.  The real "haters of our freedom" are in the White House, the Congress, the Senate, the Courts and the police stations.  Be silent at your own peril.

I am so ashamed that I wasted my vote on bush
by Gman Monday, Aug. 22, 2005 at 1:41 PM

I am so ashamed that I wasted my vote for george war bush. What was I thinking? Why did I let my right wing extremist, neo-conservative, neo-evangelical thinking get in the way of exercising sound personal judgment? Growing up, I was led to believe that the republican party was a grass roots party of the people & for the people. In retrospect, it is clear that the last 3 presidents produced by the republican party were nothing more then the rich man's rich man hiding under the disguise of the overly misused term, "conservative". The economic dark ages of reagonomics fleeced the middle and lower classes of this county simply to benefit the rich and wealthy. George warmonger bush has quietly shifted this country back to those economic dark ages. Bush inherited a strong economy and ruined that real quick. And even though 9 -11 did happen, none of bush’s reckless irresponsible decisions are justified by that day in history. It is clear that he never had any real salient foreign & domestic policies when he became president in 2000. Now we have 4 more years of republican lies and a growing body count overseas. If we ever actually do get out of Iraq, nothing will have changed and nothing will have been gained. The American people have never been given a specific objective in Iraq or a clear definition of exactly what victory in Iraq is from the president. Invading Iraq never had anything to do with, WMD, freeing the Iraqi people or making Americans safer and secure. Statements about WMD, Freeing Iraq or Making America Safer are nothing more then a marketing spin used to hide the ugly truth and make the lies palatable to the American public and justifiable to the red necks who voted for him. Bush likes to make statements such as “It’s worth the price” but he never says just what exactly “it” is. If he really believes that, then he should put his money where his mouth is and send his daughters to go fight in Iraq. The republican party claims to be for smaller less wasteful government but the current administration is responsible for the waste of more money, resources and human lives then any past democrat presidency. I have a hard time sleeping at night knowing that the blood of Americans and innocent civilians is on my hands and the hands of those who voted for george warmonger bush. The real legacy of the bush cabinet is going to be one characterized by lots of wrongful deaths, lots of money and resources wasted, unnecessary tax increases for our children and grandchildren and the unnecessary destruction of various social programs that good decent people count on. Thanks to bush and his power hungry cabinet who all want to control congress, the senate & the supreme court, the USA is now a third world country hiding under the disguise of prosperity. Now that the USA owes all these hundreds of millions of dollars to countries like China, Germany, Russia & Japan, I wonder which language I need to learn for the day when these countries come to collect…

I find it hilarious that those of you who are all of a sudden shocked—SHOCKED!—at the impending [insert your favorite scary buzzword here; examples include "theocracy," "police state," etc.] are the same folks who've been working so hard to make government bigger for the last hundred years. For the clueless out there, that would be so-called "progressives," socialists, Democrats (pardon the redundancy), and lately even Republicans. Remember: any government big enough to give you what you want, is also big enough to take everything you have. Should have thought about that, I guess.

The solution? A LIMITED, and TINY government. One that can't dispense favors, limit competition, re-distribute wealth, etc. In short, what the Founders had in mind, not the obscenity we have now.
