Alex Jones Does 180 on Police State
Advocates Military Be Used to Arrest US Citizens to Resolve Contrived Left-Right Tensions
"...They're going to guillotine everybody and have a communist utopia and they're all nodding 'we're going to kill
the conservatives and the christians, we're going to kill them'. And these are marches with hundreds of thousands
of people nodding their head, 'We are going to kill you.' As far as I'm concerned, the safest thing to do would
just to be, have Trump, just go ahead and have the Army go ahead and
arrest these people. We are in a red alert right now; we need to have
the Army just arrest these people. And I guarantee you George Washington, if stuff like
this was going on, would go arrest the people that were doing it."

known for warning the American public about the rise of the police state, who has now completely turned 180 degrees
and is ultimately calling for martial law in the streets to arrest people who are protesting the

In 2009, less than two months after Barack Obama was inaugurated as president, Alex Jones/Infowars
released a documentary (The Obama Deception) exposing him as a mask used by the corrupt
power elite to instigate and provide cover to their machinations. Central to this presentation was
the “real” executive power structure. “…The president serves the military industrial complex,
itself owned by the international bankers.” However, in 2017, though Donald Trump was a puppet like
his predecessor, Alex Jones promoted him as a maverick outside of this systemic corruption that has
plagued America since Dwight D. Eisenhower coined the phrase, “Military Industrial Complex.” Using
the war in Yemen—which has produced the greatest humanitarian crisis on earth—as a case example,
The Trump Jones Deception shows how both men were yet another mask of deceit worn by the
corrupt establishment.
Is "democracy" just a carefully managed con game? Professor Quigley not only spent decades

July 17, 2013
The Second Circuit court has overturned a temporary injunction which had
blocked the indefinite detention provision of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) – meaning
Americans can now once again be kidnapped and held without trial.
Image: Indefinite Detention
In September 2012, United States District Court Judge Katherine B. Forrest ruled that the
indefinite detention provision of the NDAA was unconstitutional and blocked it permanently. However, within 24
hours of the ruling the Obama
administration lodged an appeal and the law has been under temporary injunction until now.
Americans can once again “legally” be snatched off the street and detained without trial based on
the mere claim that they provided aid or support to terrorists, despite this being a total violation of habeas
corpus.
“In layman’s terms, Forrest put a stop to indefinite detention, and the Second Circuit overturned
that. It also permanently prohibited Forrest from attempting to do so again, ordering her to proceed with the case
consistent with their opinion. NDAA “indefinite detention” powers are alive and well.”
The group points out that the new Second Circuit ruling is completely incorrect because it claims
that Section 1021 of the 2012 NDAA says nothing about the government’s ability to detain citizens.
In reality, section 1021 states, “Congress affirms that the authority of the President to use all
necessary and appropriate force pursuant to the Authorization for Use of Military Force . . . includes the
authority for the Armed Forces of the United States to detain covered persons . . . pending disposition under the
law of war.”
The ruling stems out of Hedges v. Obama, a lawsuit
filed in January 2012. Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges and several other high profile figures
brought the case in order to protest against the potential that the law could be used to harass outspoken
journalists and political activists.
“Sadly, the “victory” lasted about 10 months. Today, US totalitarianism wins again,”
laments Zero Hedge.

"Here’s the bottom line. You are not supposed to wait 2 or
4 years for some new politicians to get in office and give your permission to be free. You are not supposed to
wait 2 or 4 or 6 years for some federal court to tell you, “ok, you be free now.” You are supposed to stand up
resist, refuse to comply and nullify unconstitutional federal acts – as soon as they happen. All the money and
time you throw at firing congress or winning in federal court will never, ever work – unless you start resisting
right here in your state. And, that resistance needs to be your first response, not your
last."- Michael Boldin, Article: James Madison: How to Stop
the Federal Government
In response to federal overreach, most people tend to focus on three types of actions to stop them: elections,
conventions, and lawsuits. While they all have their place in an overall strategy to defend the Constitution, none
of them should be the first step forward. That is, if you follow the advice of the “Father of
the Constitution.”
Here’s what James Madison had to say in Federalist
#46. The Influence of the State and Federal Governments Compared:
“Should an unwarrantable measure of the federal government be unpopular in particular States, which would
seldom fail to be the case, or even a warrantable measure be so, which may sometimes be the case, the means of
opposition to it are powerful and at hand. The disquietude of the people; their repugnance and, perhaps refusal
to cooperate with officers of the Union, the frowns of the executive magistracy of the State; the embarrassment
created by legislative devices, which would often be added on such occasions, would oppose, in any State, very
serious impediments; and were the sentiments of several adjoining States happen to be in Union, would present
obstructions which the federal government would hardly be willing to encounter.”
Let me translate. Madison said that when the federal government passes an unconstitutional measure there are
powerful methods to oppose it – amongst the people and in the states. He also pointed out that those methods were
available even for warrantable, that is constitutional, measures.
Madison told us of four things that should be done to resist federal powers, whether merely unpopular, or
unconstitutional.
1. Disquietude of the people – Madison expected the people would throw a fit when the feds usurped
power – even using the word “repugnance” to describe their displeasure. That leads to the next step.
2. Repugnance and Refusal to co-operate with the officers of the Union – Noncompliance. The #1
dictionary of the time defined repugnance as “disobedient; not obsequious” (compliant). If you want to stop the
federal government, you have to disobey them. Madison also suggested that people would perhaps directly refuse to
cooperate with federal agents. This is an approach we preach here every day at the Tenth Amendment Center. James
Madison apparently knew what we know today. The feds rely on cooperation from state and local governments, as well
as individuals. When enough people refuse to comply, they simply can’t enforce their so-called laws.
3, The frowns of the executive magistracy of the State – Here Madison envisions governors formally
protesting federal actions. This not only raises public awareness; executive leadership will also lead to the next
step – legislative action.
4. Legislative devices, which would often be added on such occasions – Madison keeps this
open-ended, and in the years soon after, which I’ll cover shortly, we learn how both he and Thomas Jefferson
applied this step.
Madison also told us that if several adjoining States would do the same it would be an effective tool to stop
federal acts. To repeat, he said that doing this “would present obstructions which the federal government would
hardly be willing to encounter.”
Judge Andrew Napolitano agreed recently and said that people need to stop enforcing unconstitutional federal
laws. He also said that if you could get an entire state doing this, it would make federal laws “nearly impossible
to enforce.”
What’s important to note here, are some glaring omissions. The powerful means that Madison told us would be used
to oppose federal power successfully did NOT include federal lawsuits in federal courts. He also did NOT include
“voting the bums out” as a strategy, either.
FIRST RESPONSE
Compare that with how people generally respond to what they consider unconstitutional or unpopular federal acts
today.
The first thing I tend to hear from people who are opposed to a federal act is the “vote the bums out” mantra.
We’ll fire congress, right?
Or some people tell us we have to sue and let the courts decide.
I’ve got some news for you. There’s nothing from the founders – anywhere – in which they tell us that our first
response to extreme, repeated violations of the constitution and liberty is to vote the bums out, or sue the feds
in federal court. Nothing.
LEGISLATIVE DEVICES
Thomas Jefferson followed up on this in 1798 with the same kind of advice. That year, the Adams administration
passed a wildly unconstitutional attack on the freedom of speech with the Alien and Sedition Acts. In response,
while sitting as vice-president, Jefferson secretly drafted the Kentucky Resolutions, and here’s a little of what
he wrote:
“The several states composing the united states of america are not united on a principle of unlimited
submission to their general government.”
“where powers are assumed which have not been delegated, a nullification of the act is the rightful
remedy”
“that every State has a natural right in cases not within the compact to nullify of their own authority all
assumptions of power by others within their limits: that without this right, they would be under the dominion,
absolute and unlimited, of whosoever might exercise this right of judgment for them”
Madison was consistent in his views on this. In 1798, he also drafted and help pass something known as the
Virginia Resolutions, a state-level “legislative device” in response to the Alien and Sedition Acts. Here’s a key
part:
in case of a deliberate, palpable, and dangerous exercise of other powers, not granted by the said
compact, the states who are parties thereto, have the right, and are in duty bound, to interpose for arresting
the progress of the evil, and for maintaining within their respective limits, the authorities, rights and
liberties appertaining to them.
Like Madison advised in Federalist #46, both he and Thomas Jefferson advised a state-level response to dangerous
federal acts. In 1798, neither of them even mentioned voting or lawsuits.
Jefferson told us that a “nullification is the rightful remedy.” And Madison told us that states are “duty-bound
to interpose.”
When Daniel Webster called on these same principles in response to military conscription plans during the war of
1812, he said:
“The operation of measures thus unconstitutional and illegal ought to be prevented by a resort to other
measures which are both constitutional and legal. It will be the solemn duty of the State governments to
protect their own authority over their own militia, and to interpose between their citizens and arbitrary
power. These are among the objects for which the State governments exist; and their highest obligations bind
them to the preservation of their own rights and the liberties of their people”
Here’s the bottom line. You are not supposed to wait 2 or 4 years for some new politicians to get in office and
give your permission to be free. You are not supposed to wait 2 or 4 or 6 years for some federal court to tell you,
“ok, you be free now.”
You are supposed to stand up resist, refuse to comply and nullify unconstitutional federal acts – as soon as
they happen.
All the money and time you throw at firing congress or winning in federal court will never, ever work – unless
you start resisting right here in your state. And, that resistance needs to be your first response, not your
last.

Mr. Mayer's biggest impact was when he was profiled by Mike Wallace and Morley Safer on the CBS News Program "Sixty
Minutes". Mayer -- then an elected Independent town councilman in Princeton, N.J. -- went undercover and wore a
wire to expose the rampant corruption and criminality endemic to New Jersey and, increasingly, American,
politics.
On that program, the CEO of United Gunite Corporation (a construction company) was caught offering a cash bribe to
a "Sixty Minutes" cameraman to stop his filming: a first in "Sixty Minutes" history.
The same CEO was subsequently indicted by the U.S. Attorney for New Jersey and cooperated in indicting corporate
lobbyists and the mayors of several New Jersey cities, including Patterson and Irvington. The fallout continues as
over ninty elected officials and corporate lobbyists have been sent to jail for bribery, extortion and other
corruption charges.
Mr. Mayer dedicates his law practice, writing and electoral efforts to ending the tyranny of corporate power over
American citizens.
He has written in law journals opposing efforts by corporations to use the Bill of Rights intended only for
American citizens to shield corporations from accountability and legal sanction.

"Experience hath shewn, that even under the
best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into
tyranny." -- Thomas Jefferson
Late Monday night a federal judge in New York, Raymond Lohier, granted the
Obama administration an “emergency” stay thattemporarily blocks a
ruling by U.S. District Judge Katherine Forrest last week blocking the NDAA.
“Lohier offered no explanation or rationale for the temporary stay. However, the
Justice Department has asked the appeals court to block the injunction,”Politico reported
late last night.
The Obama administration characterized the ruling by Forrest as
unconstitutional.
The Justice Department said the ruling was “unprecedented” and argued that the
executive has the right under the Constitution to detain anyone indefinitely without due process. The Fifth
Amendment specifically mentionsdue process of law.
The NDAA also violates the “equal protection” clause of the 14th Amendment stating
that all people be treated the same under the law.
The federal government argues that the National Defense Authorization Act did not
expand its authority beyond what already existed under the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) , as
interpreted by judges in Guantánamo Bay habeas corpus cases.
“This pernicious law poses one of the greatest threats to civil liberties in our
nation’s history,” writesBrian J. Trautman. Under
AUMF, “this law can be used by authorities to detain (forever) anyone the government considers a threat to
national security and stability – potentially even demonstrators and protesters exercising their First Amendment
rights.”
Documents produced by the Department of Homeland Security and fusion centers and
subsequently leaked to the media target numerous organizations and individuals as threats to national security —
including supporters of Ron Paul, returning veterans, and other “rightwing extremists.”
In the months ahead, the NDAA will likely become an invaluable tool for the
government as the economy finally topples over a cliff and a violent conflagration engulfs the Middle East. Iran
has promised to shut down the flow of oil out of the region if the United States and Israel invade. This would
undoubtedly have a devastating effect on the world economy and would result in massive protests against the
government.
A lone appeals judge bowed down to the Obama
administration late Monday and reauthorized the White House’s ability to indefinitely detain American citizens
without charge or due process.
Last week, a federal judge ruled that an temporary injunction on section
1021 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 must be made permanent, essentially barring the
White House from ever enforcing a clause in the NDAA that can let them put any US citizen behind bars indefinitely
over mere allegations of terrorist associations. On Monday, the US Justice Department asked for an emergency stay on that order, and
hours later US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit Judge Raymond Lohier agreed to intervene and place a hold on
the injunction.
The stay will remain in effect until at least September 28, when a three-judge appeals court panel is expected
to begin addressing the issue.
On December 31, 2011, US President Barack Obama signed the NDAA into law, even though he insisted
on accompanying that authorization with a statement explaining
his hesitance to essentially eliminate habeas corpus for the American people.
“The fact that I support this bill as a whole does not mean I agree with everything in it,” President Obama
wrote. “In particular, I have signed this bill despite having serious reservations with certain provisions that
regulate the detention, interrogation, and prosecution of suspected terrorists.”
A lawsuit against the administration was
filed shortly thereafter on behalf of Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges and others, and Judge Forrest
agreed with them in district court
last week after months of debate. With the stay issued on Monday night, however, that justice’s decision has been
destroyed.
With only Judge Lohier’s single ruling on Monday, the federal government has been once again granted the go
ahead to imprison any person “who was part of or substantially supported al-Qaeda, the Taliban or associated forces
that are engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners” until a poorly defined
deadline described as merely “the end of the hostilities.” The ruling comes despite Judge Forrest’s earlier
decision that the NDAA fails to “pass constitutional muster” and that the legislation contained elements that had a
“chilling impact on First Amendment rights”
Because alleged terrorists are so broadly defined as to include anyone with simple associations with enemy
forces, some members of the press have feared that simply speaking with adversaries of the state can land them
behind bars.
“First Amendment rights are guaranteed by the Constitution and cannot be legislated away,” Judge Forrest wrote
last week. “This Court rejects the Government’s suggestion that American citizens can be placed in military
detention indefinitely, for acts they could not predict might subject them to detention.”
Bruce Afran, a co-counsel representing the plaintiffs in the case Hedges v Obama, said Monday that he suspects
the White House has been relentless in this case because they are already employing the NDAA to imprison Americans,
or plan to shortly.
“A Department of Homeland Security bulletin was issued Friday claiming that the riots [in the Middle East] are
likely to come to the US and saying that DHS is looking for the Islamic leaders of these likely riots,” Afran told
Hedges for a blogpost published this week.
“It is my view that this is why the government wants to reopen the NDAA — so it has a tool to round up would-be
Islamic protesters before they can launch any protest, violent or otherwise. Right now there are no legal tools to
arrest would-be protesters. The NDAA would give the government such power. Since the request to vacate the
injunction only comes about on the day of the riots, and following the DHS bulletin, it seems to me that the two
are connected. The government wants to reopen the NDAA injunction so that they can use it to block protests.”
Within only hours of Afran’s statement being made public, demonstrators in New York City waged a day of protests
in order to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Although it is not believed
that the NDAA was used to justify any arrests, more than 180 political protesters were detained by the NYPD over
the course of the day’s actions. One week earlier, the results of a Freedom of Information Act request filed by the
American Civil Liberties Union confirmed that the FBI has been monitoring Occupy protests in at least one instance,
but the bureau would not give further details, citing that decision is “in the interest of national defense or
foreign policy.”
Josh Gerstein, a reporter with Politico, reported on the stay late Monday and acknowledged that both Forrest and
Lohier were appointed to the court by President Obama.
On September
12, 2012 we had one of the biggest victories for civil liberties and against government overreach in a decade.
Judge Forrest granted a permanent injunction against Section 1021(b)(2), the government promptly filed an appeal,
and then went further: they requested a stay of execution on the injunction from Judge Forrest, once again proving
no evidence and failing to answer all of her questions and concerns, while again claiming that the detention powers
of the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) of 2001, (the law that allows the president to detain those
who were involved in the 9/11 attacks and/or are members of Al Qaeda or the Taliban) and the NDAA's Section 1021
powers are precisely the same.
This is disingenuous. Section 1021 provides sweeping powers of
detention through incredibly vague and undefined terms, that are missing in the AUMF. The government is completely
contradicting itself. Judge Forrest made it clear that her ruling did not touch the AUMF. And in their request for
an emergency stay, the government claimed "irreparable harm" would be incurred if they do not have the powers of
Section 1021.
Next up: A longer-term stay will be decided by a three judge court on
or near September 28. The appeal of the permanent injunction date is not yet set.

The plaintiffs that are suing US President Barack Obama over
his insistence on keeping the National Defense Authorization Act on the books said Thursday that they fear
Americans are already being held indefinitely and without trial under the NDAA.
US President Barack Obama refrained from even once commenting
on his efforts to keep his power to indefinitely detain Americans without charge when heappearedon Reddit.com recently and urged users to
“Ask Me Anything.” His opponents in the matter aren’t shying away from speaking up online, though.
The plaintiffs in the case to ban the White House
fromimprisoningAmericans indefinitely without trial or
due justice took toRedditon Thursday to answer questions involving
the National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2012, or the NDAA, and blamed corrupt media and a broken
governmental establishment for letting the Obama administration maintain its to book Americans in military prisons
without charge.
On December 31, 2011, President Obama authorized the NDAA, and
with it he approved a controversial provision that permits the government to indefinitely detain US citizens
without trial for mere allegations of ties to suspected terrorists. Journalists and activists filed
alawsuitagainst the president earlier this year
over the provision, Section 1021, which US Federal Judge Katherine Forrest in turn agreed
wasunconstitutional. Last month Judge Forrest decided
that anearlier, temporary injunction on the clause should be
made permanent, but the Obama Justice Departmentpleadedfor an emergency stay only hours later.
A lone federal appeals judge has since heard that plea and has momentarilyblocked Judge Forrest’s injunction. Now
pending the results of an appeals panel’s formal investigation, the NDAA’s indefinite detention provision
remains on the books.
On Thursday, the plaintiffs in the case — journalist Chris
Hedges, activist Tangerine Bolen, Pentagon Papers leaker Dan Ellsberg, their attorneys and others — told users of
Reddit to ask them anything.
“The Obama DOJ has vigorously opposed these efforts, and
immediately appealed her ruling and requested an emergency stay on the injunction – claiming the US would
incur ‘irreparable harm’ if the president lost the power to use Section 1021 – and detain anyone, anywhere
until the end of hostilities on a whim. This case will probably make its way to the Supreme
Court,” the plaintiffs acknowledged in their
introduction.
From there, President Obama’s opponents in federal court
combed through hundreds of posts to answer questions regarding the NDAA over the course of several hours. And
although the plaintiffs have not exactly been silent with the status of their fight since suing the White House
earlier this year, the insight they offered on Reddit provided a fresh update on the case against the NDAA amid
some of the government’s most unusual legal maneuvers yet.
Offering his take on the case, Hedges said that he even
believes the NDAA’s indefinite detention clause is already being used to imprison
Americans,“because they filed an emergency appeal.”
“If the Obama administration simply appealed it, as we
expected, it would have raised this red flag,” Hedges
added.“But since they were so aggressive it means that once Judge
Forrest declared the law invalid, if they were using it, as we expect, they could be held in contempt of court.
This was quite disturbing, for it means, I suspect, that US citizens, probably dual nationals, are being held in
military detention facilities almost certainly overseas and maybe at home.”
“The signing statement is the most ridiculous part to this
for me. He writes this statement saying he's not happy about the power existing, but then his administration fights
so hard to keep that specific power in place,” Reddit user
devilrobotjesus responded.
“If Obama didn't want it to happen, he would not have
signed it, especially after stating that he would veto it,” co-counsel Carl Mayer explained. Mayer has represented the plaintiffs in the case
ofHedges v. Obama and
said that he plans on continuing his pursuit to take indefinite detention off the books.
“We will do whatever it
takes,” Mayers added.“We are prepared for a Supreme Court battle.”
Activist and journalist Tangerine Bolen is also insistent on
prevailing over the Obama administration, but says“The biggest
obstruction to our winning this case . . . is our broken systems.” Bolen blames a lack of media coverage, insufficient public
awareness“and the government behaving very badly, even in court, on
the record,” for the difficulties the plaintiffs have had to endure,
adding that the Obama administration’s constant missteps have been noticed by no one
except“seven plaintiffs, four attorneys, one federal judge and the
activists who have been following this case.”
“Amazing,”she added.
Journalist Chris Hedges extrapolated on Bolen’s opinion,
singling out“a corporate-owned system of
information”for not informing Americans that they can be imprisoned
without trial at this very moment.
“MSNBC, which is a propaganda arm of the Democratic
establishment, just as Fox is a propaganda arm of the Republican establishment, is not going to raise this as Obama
is as guilty as Romney. If we had a healthy press this would have gotten more coverage, although the print media,
and in particular my old paper the NY Times, finally did good coverage,” Hedges wrote.
Daniel Ellsberg, the former Defense Department employee who
achieved notoriety a generation earlier by leaking what became known as the Pentagon Papers, agreed that the system
is severely in fault in this instance.
“Virtually every public institution has failed us gravely.
Not only the executive, but the courts, congress, most of the media and most of the
churches,” Ellsberg wrote on
Reddit.“Radical reform is needed, even to the point of
non-violent revolution. “
Elsewhere, the panel touched on why they believe the Obama
administration is so adamantly fighting to keep the NDAA legal.
“It is quite possible that the NDAA is . . . a way to get
Julian Assange and WikiLeaks,” Bolen
claimed.“While the USG has tried to paint us as irrational,
delusional and ridiculous, you see the slippery slope here.”
On his part, Hedges said that emails hacked by Anonymous and
released by Wikileaks show that the US government has attempted to"tie a legitimate dissident group to terrorism and strip them of their right of
dissent,” to which Bolen follows up with an explanation that
supports the ramped up attempts from the White House to persecute whistleblowers and leakers under President
Obama
“Yes, of course, if [Assange] is an enemy of the state,
then yes, [The New York Times] could be considered to have communicated with the enemy. And perhaps the NDAA is a
way to finally nail him,” Bolen said.
A three-judge appeals panel is expected to soon weigh in on
the stay placed on Judge Forrest’s injunction, in the meantime keeping Section 1021 and the rest of the NDAA
applicable to every American.
Fed Judge Rules In Favor of
NDAA Indefinite Detention
[vid]
A
federal appeals court has ruled that the US government can still indefinitely detain citizens should it wish to do
so, under the Obama Administration's National Defense Authorization Act.
The ruling came in the form of an extension of an "emergency" stay of a district
court judge's order that had previously struck down the defence bill's provisions altogether.
Last month District Judge Katherine Forrest permanently blocked the NDAA provision,
saying that "First Amendment rights have already been harmed and will be harmed by the prospect of (the law) being
enforced."
However, the very next day the Obama administration moved to appeal the decision in
an attempt to reinstate the indefinite detention provisions. The administration characterized the ruling by Forrest
as unconstitutional.
Federal judge in New York, Raymond Lohier, then granted the Obama administration an
"emergency" stay that temporarily blocks Forrest's ruling.
Late yesterday, a three-judge motions panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd
Circuit extended that stay, supporting the administration's appeal and intimating that Forrest's ruling is
flawed.

In the video below, Alex Jones highlights how the
Guardian Centers video is yet another startling indication that authorities in the United States are preparing for
civil unrest as America increasingly begins to resemble a militarized police state.
My topic for this evening is “now, it’s assassinations”. What have
we allowed ourselves to become? Are we no longer a nation of laws? Have we become instead a nation of men who make
secret arrests? Are secret prisons now simply another tool of the federal government law enforcement? Is secret
rendition of individuals now permitted out of misplaced fear? Have we decided that the writ of habeas corpus is not
worth defending? Is torture now an acceptable tool for making us safe?
Unfortunately, the single answer to all these questions from the
leaders of our country to many of our citizens appears to be yes. And now we are told that assassination of
foreigners as well as American citizens is legitimate and necessary to provide security for our people. It is my
firm opinion that nothing could be further from the truth.
Secret arrests, secret renditions, torture and assassinations are
illegal under both domestic and international law. These activities should be anathema to the citizens of a
constitutional republic. The real threat doesn’t arise from our failure to torture, rather desensitizing our nation
to the willful neglect and sacrifice of our civil liberties fought and died for over the centuries, is the
threat.

Psyops, or psychological operations, is a term used to describe the
techniques of psychological manipulation used in warfare. These operations are used to deceive, confuse, disrupt
and demoralize the enemy, with an aim toward weakening enemy resistance or even causing enemy forces to surrender
and enemy populations to capitulate.

Though its ostensible purpose is to fund the U.S.
military over a one year period, the National Defense Authorization Act, better known as the NDAA,
has had
numerous provisions tucked into it over the years that have targeted American civil liberties. The most
well-known of these include allowing the government to wiretap American citizens without a warrant and, even more
disturbingly, indefinitely imprison an American citizen without charge in the name of “national security.”
One of the lesser-known provisions that have snuck their way into the NDAA over the years was a small piece of
legislation tacked onto the NDAA for fiscal year 2013,
signed into law in that same year by then-President Barack Obama. Named “The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act
of 2012,” it
completely lifted the long-existing ban on the domestic dissemination of U.S. government-produced
propaganda.
For decades, the U.S. government had been allowed to produce and disseminate
propaganda abroad in order to drum up support for its foreign wars but had been banned from distributing it
domestically after the passage of the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948. However, the Modernization Act’s co-authors, Reps.
Mac Thornberry (R-TX) and Adam Smith (D-WA, no relation to the Smith of the 1948 act),asserted thatremoving the domestic
ban was necessary in order to combat “al-Qaeda’s and other violent extremists’ influence among populations.”
Video Shows Troops Training to Intern Citizens in
Fort Lauderdale
Martial law-style drill caught on
camera
by Paul Joseph Watson | March 29, 2015
Footage out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida shot earlier this
week shows military and law enforcement practicing the internment of citizens during martial-law style
training.
The clip shows armed troops arresting role players on the street before a column of prisoners are
marched towards a mock internment facility. Black Hawk choppers are also seen whizzing between buildings.
The exercise was accompanied by very little
media coverage. A Sun-Sentinel report said that Broward County police would be “assisting members of
the U.S. Special Operations Forces who are undergoing urban warfare training.”
The drill, which was held in locations the military refused to disclose beforehand, began on March
17 and ended on Friday. 200 military personnel from all four branches, Air Force, Army, Marines and Navy, took part
in the exercise.
“The goal is to prepare participants in realistic, unfamiliar training conditions before they
deploy for combat overseas,” states the report. Residents were advised “not to be alarmed by the Black Hawk helicopters in the
sky.”
Broward County also saw similar drills back in March 2014,
when Navy SEALS practicing storming a university building from a helicopter.
Concerns continue to circulate that such
drills are designed for dual purpose and are part of a plan to acclimate Americans to accept martial law in a time
of national emergency. As
we have exhaustively documented, the fact that preparations are being made to use the military during domestic
unrest is manifestly provable.
Jade Helm, an upcoming military drill that will involve nine states, caused controversy after Texas
and Utah were labeled “hostile” territory in documents related to the exercise.
As we reported earlier this
week, the exercise will involve soldiers operating “undetected amongst civilian populations,” to see if they
can infiltrate without being noticed.

...“They’re building an infrastructure of tyranny,” stated Infowars David Knight.
“There’s a legal infrastructure with things like the NDAA, there’s a technical
infrastructure with things like the capability to do dragnet surveillance, and then of course there is going to be
a military and law enforcement infrastructure, and those are merging.”
An independent agency of the United States government responsible for
collecting and coordinating intelligence and counterintelligence activities abroad in the national
interest; headed by the Director of Central Intelligence under the supervision of the President and
National Security Council...There has been considerable criticism of the CIA relating to security
and counterintelligence failures, failures in intelligence analysis, human rights concerns,
external investigations and document releases, influencing public opinion and law enforcement, drug
trafficking, and lying to Congress. In 1987, the former CIA Station Chief in Angola in 1976, John
Stockwell, said the CIA is responsible for tens of thousands of covert actions and destablization
programs since it was created by Congress with the passage of the National Security Act of
1947.At the time, Stockwell estimated that over 6
million people had died in CIA covert actions.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is a governmental agency
belonging to the United StatesDepartment of Justice that serves as both a federal criminal
investigative body and an internal intelligence agency (counterintelligence). Also, it is the
government agency responsible for investigating crimes on Indian reservations in the United States
under the Major Crimes Act. The branch has investigative jurisdiction over violations of more than
200 categories of federal crime. The agency was established in 1908 as the Bureau of Investigation
(BOI). Its name was changed to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in 1935. The agency
headquarters is the J. Edgar Hoover Building, located in Washington, D.C. The agency has fifty-six
field offices located in major cities throughout the United States, and more than 400 resident
agencies in lesser cities and areas across the nation. More than 50 international offices called
"legal attachés" exist in U.S. embassies and consulates general worldwide.
'Federal Bureau of Investigation organizes almost
all terror plots in the US' ...The report reveals that the FBI regularly infiltrates communities
where they suspect terrorist-minded individuals to be engaging with others. Regardless of their
intentions, agents are sent in to converse within the community, find suspects that could
potentially carry out “lone wolf” attacks and then, more or less, encourage them to do so. By
providing weaponry, funds and a plan, FBI-directed agents will encourage otherwise-unwilling
participants to plot out terrorist attacks, only to bust them before any events fully
materialize.
How could there be aWar on Terror and actually say that we're having
awar against terrorism, and leave the
borders wide open? If you were the President of the United States, or I were the President of the United States,
and9/11 really happened the way they
want us to believe it happened, the first thing you would do is shut down the borders, so people couldn't get in
the country to harm you. But they left the borders wide open. Becausethe bankers want the borders open, because they want
aone-world government. They
want a North American Union. They don't want borders
here.9/11 was only a manifestation.
It was done to create afear in the
American public, so that we willobey what they want us to do.
It’s no longer Al-Qaeda,
it’s now supposedly
your friends and neighbors. This is the prevailing
meme of every tyrannical fascist regime in history.

In 1991, the Club published The First Global
Revolution. It analyses the problems of humanity, calling these collectively or in essence the 'problematique'. It
notes (laments) that, historically, social or political unity has commonly been motivated by enemies in common:
"The need for enemies seems to be a common historical factor. Some states have striven to overcome domestic failure
and internal contradictions by blaming external enemies. The ploy of finding a scapegoat is as old as mankind itself - when things
become too difficult at home, divert attention to adventure abroad. Bring the divided nation together to face
an outside enemy, either a real one, or else one invented for the purpose. With the disappearance of the
traditional enemy, the temptation is to use religious or ethnic minorities as scapegoats, especially those
whose differences from the majority are disturbing." "Every state has been so used to classifying its
neighbours as friend or foe, that the sudden absence of traditional adversaries has left governments and
public opinion with a great void to fill. New enemies have to be identified, new strategies imagined, and new
weapons devised."
