Who are the enemies of America and what does the government plan to do with them?

There is a piece of logic that, like a double-edged sword, cuts the same way in both directions. It says that "anyone who is not on my side must be against me". The importance of this logic is trivial when used in a social context but when the Federal government says the same thing it takes on a horrendous implication. When the all-mighty Federal government declares that it must prepare for situations to deal with enemies of America it takes on a completely different meaning after you read who and what they have already defined it considers those enemies to be. Us! Those same radical domestic terrorists who drive around with Pro-Life, 2nd Amendment or third party bumper stickers on their cars and those military veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan who hold a grudge against our country for sending them into battle with unloaded weapons.

Following the Islamic motivated attacks on America on 9-11-2001 Congress hastily passed The Patriot Act. Then they created the Department of Homeland Security. Then Homeland Security issued two revealing documents that identified the targets of their concerns about domestic terrorists. (U//FOUO) Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment and (U//FOUO) Domestic Extremism Lexicon. Then, in 2009, Democrat leftist Rep. Alcee L. Hastings from Florida introduced H.R. 645, which was described by the very knowledgeable columnist Jerome R. Corsi, in a WorldNet Daily News story:  Bill creates detention camps in U.S. for 'emergencies' Sweeping, undefined purpose raises worries about military police state posted on February 01, 2009, as "calling for the secretary of homeland security to establish no fewer than six national emergency centers for corralling civilians on military installations." "The proposed bill, which has received little mainstream media attention, appears designed to create the type of detention center that those concerned about use of the military in domestic affairs fear could be used as concentration camps for political dissidents, such as occurred in Nazi Germany."

Waiting a few years till the ripples of discontent had subsided and citizens memories faded we then have in the last few days another bill, S.1867 which has just passed in the Senate. The National Defense Authorization Act bill contains the following section. SEC. 1031. AFFIRMATION OF AUTHORITY OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE UNITED STATES TO DETAIN COVERED PERSONS PURSUANT TO THE AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF MILITARY FORCE. None other than the ACLU has described this as: "The worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial provision is in S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, which will be on the Senate floor on Monday. The bill was drafted in secret by Sens. Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.) and passed in a closed-door committee meeting, without even a single hearing."

Do a Google search on "concentration camps in America" and you will find thousands of stories, mostly written by, for want of another word, flakey extremists, sometimes known as the "truthers", the kind that also blame the U.S. government for the destruction of the World Trade Center towers. The kind of stories that no rational person would believe. But in light of all of the above, these stories now take on a more credible meaning. So put aside your disbelief in the "truthers" and give some thought to stories like: Massive Concentration Camps are already operational within the U.S. Now remember, if you are not on the side of Barack Hussein Obama then you must be against him. That makes you and me an enemy of his version of America.

Also, please read Terresa Monroe-Hamilton's insightful article in The Noisy Room, Silent Running – The Targeting of Americans. The author is NOT one of those flakey extremists that you can comfortably ignore.
