Kill Panel Is Targeting US Citizens

 


Are you starting to see just how bad it really is yet -
American militants like Anwar al-Awlaki are placed on a kill or capture list by a secretive panel of senior government officials, which then informs the president of its decisions, according to officials.

There is no public record of the operations or decisions of the panel, which is a subset of the White House's National Security Council, several current and former officials said. Neither is there any law establishing its existence or setting out the rules by which it is supposed to operate.

The panel was behind the decision to add Awlaki, a U.S.-born militant preacher with alleged al Qaeda connections, to the target list. He was killed by a CIA drone strike in Yemen late last month.

The role of the president in ordering or ratifying a decision to target a citizen is fuzzy. White House spokesman Tommy Vietor declined to discuss anything about the process.
The Real Effect
Note the bold print -
  1. Regardless of how one thinks about the man, Awlaki is ALLEGED to be a terrorist, that is someone, somewhere pointed a finger at him. This matter has not been heard in a court of law.
  2. A secret panel declares the guy a menace and then orders him dead. There are no rules checking this process and all decisions are secret.
  3. There is no law that authorizes this. These actions are extra-judicial.
  4. The President of the United States is probably involved.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the most egregious act that ANY individual or institution can perform ever and I dare say that the evil this sort of precedent can generate is far, far, far more damning to this country then any single or group of terrorists could ever dream of accomplishing.

Let's reduce it even further. We as a nation are upset that our 3,000 citizens were murdered without a trial and yet our brilliant solution is to formally institutionalize the process in secretive kill panels? Doesn't this fly in the face of what we are supposedly outraged about?!?

Evil. Pure and simple.

Rage Grips the Country as the Protests Intensify Into Riot Material

Just who are these people -

The leftist juggernaut MoveOn.org, a Democratic Party front which vehemently backed Obama’s 2008 election campaign, is set to hijack the ‘Occupy Wall Street’ protests this week, which is pretty ironic given the fact that the Obama administration is a creature of Wall Street itself.

After largely staying out of the protests thus far, “MoveOn.org is expected to mobilize its extensive online regional networks to drum up support for the effort,” reports Crain’s New York Business.
The Real Effect
Just like the "Tea Party" Express is not the Tea Party, the communists that will infiltrate these groups are also not the Tea Party. Funny how one group can comprise of commies, neocons and union thugs without it's permission. Mostly because the real Tea Party is nebulous and has no formal declarations. True, there are groups that are more rigid, but meet a real Tea Party member and you'll generally encounter a genuine libertarian that is pro-gun, pro-liberty and anti-globalist.

TSA Comes to Lambeau

Wisconsinites everywhere should hang their cheeseheads in shame -
Green Bay Packers fans should arrive early and expect some delays for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos as the team implements heightened security measures for the games at Lambeau Field this season.

The National Football League is pushing for enhanced security, and starting with Sunday's game at Lambeau, all fans will be subject to a hand-held, metal-detecting wand test before being admitted.The procedure would be similar to wand inspections at the airport, but this process would be less invasive than the full-body exam, said Doug Collins, Packers director of security.
The Real Effect
What better place to put this kind of security on display then the home of the Super Bowl Champions?
Of course, we all know that this is more posturing to eliminate the common people's rights but let's be perfectly clear about this.
  1. As a private organization, they have every right to implement these sort of procedures if they would like.
  2. I as a private citizen, have every right to boycott the living daylights out of your organization for doing so.
  3. Let's not be naive about this, the DHS put the NFL up to this.
We turn to 2006 for the rationale -
I will go over this real slowly, so all may understand. If you create a terrorist and then your own 'experts' to testify to the nastiness of this terrorist and then the aforementioned terrorist does something scary, you get billions of dollars in funding and tons more control over a populace. I believe that it is the oldest trick in the book.

Watch for the story to die down, yet the call to "vigilance" and "protection" grows while pushing the conclusion of the story aside. And all it takes to solidify it in your mind, is one terrorist attack that they tell you is from the "terrorist" and liberty becomes a forethought reserved for the annals of history.

And when will it go away? When the money runs out -
Searching people at the borders and prosecuting criminals will reduce crime and terrorism. It will actually work. This reduces the need for expensive and invasive systems such as the TSA, Highway Watch and citizen watch programs. This makes less money for the bureaucrats and politicians and erodes their power base. Where would the pay raise in that be? No this is typical problem-reaction-solution fear mongering in an attempt to strip the Republic and it's good people of their rights.
