Internet Revolution is Inevitable, but could it spill into Real World?

Recent Success of Activists could Trigger Martial Law in America.

Not long ago, our leaders witnessed several North African governments get overthrown, watching on live TV as Muammar Gaddafi was dethroned, publicly humiliated and executed.

Don’t think this didn’t strike fear into the hearts of leaders around the globe. Because what happened in Libya could happen anywhere. Even in the US of A.

Although the politicians of western nations like those of the United States and Europe claim a sense of security not known by kings and dictators of third world countries, even leaders seemingly untouchable know that anything can happen should the situation arise. They will not soon forget the execution of Gaddafi any more that they will forget the French Revolution, for though it was long ago, the guillotine will never be forgotten.

The US, the UK and the rest of Europe has had mounting public discontent, and has seen their share of violent unrest in recent years, but it was the victories of activists against several censorship bills in the US that was of most concern for our politicians in America.

Even though Washington first tried to say that the censorship bills were proposed in the name of National Security and anti-terrorism, later adding anti-piracy, to allegedly protect Hollywood and the music industry from copyright violations, but it is in reality to curb public discontent aroused by the alternative media and independent Bloggers, the assembling of activists and the staging of protests through social media that the government wants to censor the Internet.

The victories of activists inspired and lead in part by the hacker group Anonymous, together with protests in conjunction with the Occupy Movement and the support from several major websites that caused SOPA, PIPA even the NDAA to be suspended indefinitely caused anxiety in Washington that hasn’t been felt since the race riots of the 60’s.

Though one of the key factors of the success in squashing SOPA and PIPA was a joint letter to Congress from leading technology companies including Google, Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and EBay expressing concern over the censorship bills that without a doubt had much influence over our lawmakers decision, it was without a doubt the outcry of the millions of online protesters and Occupy members that scared our government into shelving these bills.

America had witnessed the beginnings of a rebellion over proposed legislation that would have changed the Internet for ever. Though the uprising achieved a stunning success, giving activists new confidence and hope when fighting other measures in the future, this is a fight that will never be over.

This public defeat has left politicians scrambling to construct a defensive to assure that this won’t ever happen again. Already Obama has signed the new Executive Order into law, which is little more than another version of the NDAA that our well meaning activist thought they were on the verge of defeating. Already new censorship bills are being introduced into Congress for approval, including the new CISPA (Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act) which is reported to be far worse than SOPA or PIPA.

If passed through Congress, CISPA would allow the government access to personal correspondence of any person of their choosing. The title of this controversial act is H.R. 3523. The wording is very vague and broad, but it is clear that the act could allow Congress to circumvent existing exemptions to online privacy laws, and allow the monitoring and censorship of any user of the internet. CISPA would allow Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to “funnel private communications and related information back to the government without adequate privacy protections and controls and would also allow the government to stop online communications which they deem disruptive.

The US government know who these "troublemakers are" already. Trust me, they keep close tabs on anybody and everybody who could be a threat to them in any way, shape or form. It is ironic how the same instruments that have enabled activists to fight unjust legislation has also become the primary weapon against them. Yes, the Internet, particularly social media, has become the principal source of intelligence for the CIA, FBI, Homeland Security and every other law enforcement agency in America. I recently investigated these invasions of our privacy, publishing several articles about my findings, including, US Homeland Security Monitoring Facebook, Twitter and other Sites for Signs of Discontent, Is the FBI Monitoring Your Social Networks? and Facebook is CIA's Primary Intelligence Source.

People share virtually every bit of information about themselves with Facebook. From sexual orientation, age, race, religious and political affiliation, even daily updates about their whereabouts, people are sharing literally everything. No wonder the US Department of Homeland Security alone paid contractors $11.3 million dollars to monitor Facebook, Twitter and other social networks, blogs, alternative news media and many other sites for signs of discontent, they need not look any further!

Even though this is all OSINT, better known as open-source intelligence, it is publicly available information for anyone to enjoy. However, considering your 'personal info' could be misinterpreted and saved by a government database like the DHS database of secret watchlists, it may not all be quite as enjoyable as one might first think. 

Surveillance and Censorship are the Governments Weapons 

Though the average Internet user could care less about CISPA, OSINT or how proposed legislation is steamrolled through Congress, once it becomes a battle of old vs. new, of business as usual vs. life online, of lobbyists vs. hacktivists of oppression vs. freedom  and of control vs. personal privacy and sanctity of the home, mainstream America will join the fight.

If properly warned and motivated, under the right leadership, in their fight for Internet freedom, online hacktivists as well as Occupy activists will trample any politcian or CEO seeming to stand in the way, no matter if it be Republicans, Democrats, mainstream media or industries. It is exactly this that our government officials and lobbyists fear, but it is more and more seemingly an inevitable Internet revolution that has already been set in motion.

It will be an ongoing, never-ending battle to keep the Internet free of government censorship. Not only the US government, but governments across the globe will continue to attempt to control the Web, as can be seen by International censorship efforts like ACTA (Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement) and TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement).

Just don’t let them fool you into thinking that any of this is to stop terrorism or online piracy. Know that their censorship attempts are of self interest; to stop anti-government groups, rallies, protests, blogs and writings. It’s to stop rebellion and revolution like what our government saw happen in Egypt and Libya. They don’t want to end up like Gaddafi. Nobody wants to end like that!

Our governments will stop at nothing to stop this from happening, even if it would come down to the declaration of Martial Law, mass arrests and FEMA prison camps. Oh yes, should our government end up on the losing end of the Internet censorship battle, they will resort to harsher methods in order to maintain control, even if this would mean rounding up activist leaders and other “troublemakers” and placing them under arrest, detaining them indefinitely, where they could no longer stir up anti-government sentiment. If it means mass arrests of violent protestors, the US has the resources to lock up as many as they deem necessary. Thousands. Tens of thousands. Even hundreds of thousands if need be! Just look back at how many Japanese and German immigrants we herded into "detainment centers" during WWII.

The prison camps are already in place throughout the United States, ready to be filled at a moment’s notice. You may have already  heard rumors of the FEMA Prison Camps, so conveniently kept out of mainstream media. They are everywhere, hidden in plain sight, disguised as shipping terminals, train yards or closed military bases surrounded by razor. Dozens of web sites have showcased the FEMA camps with photos, videos and reports by independent investigators.

Though I have a conspiracy blog, I am a skeptic by nature, so when I first heard rumors of FEMA Prison Camps, they seemed extremely ridiculous and paranoid to me. However, I found it my duty as an American patriot, as well as an investigative journalist and conspiracy Blogger to investigate the rumors. If you are as skeptical as I was when I first heard of this, that something like this is possible in America, stay tuned as I will be publishing my report, Could there really be Concentration Camps in America? A Search for alleged FEMA Prisons, soon.

Periodically, the US government conducts multi-agency readiness exercises to prepare for “emergency situations such as major strikes and unlawful assemblies. Real-life examples of these exercises include Rex-82 Proud Saber (where Rex-82 stands for Readiness Exercise, 1982), and Rex-84 Night Train. These exercises show how our government would impose martial law, arrest large numbers of people, and mass relocate civilians. These are not rumors, but real-life, US government run exercises!

 
The bottom line is, even if the FEMA camps were elaborately staged hoaxes, even if much of what I am writing here is paranoia talking, you and I both know that the US government is overstepping their bounds, seizing control of our lives down the smallest detail. You know as well as I do, that America has become a police state by the strictest sense of the definition. You can read about it in the news, you can see the signs in your daily life and you can feel it in the air; America is no longer the Land of the Free.

To add insult to injury, just when you thought our government couldn’t ruin the First Amendment any further, Congress approves a bill that outlaws protests!

The House voted 388-to-3 in favor of H.R. 347, a bill which is being dubbed the Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act. The bill officially makes it illegal to trespass on the grounds of the White House and/or engage in political protest anywhere in the country.

Yes, you read right, the new law will allow the government to bring charges to protesters, demonstrators and activists at political events and other outings across America. It enables prosecutors to charge anyone who enters a building without permission or with the intent to disrupt a government function in any building or grounds “restricted in conjunction with an event designated as a special event of national significance."

Have they gone too far? For our government to have this kind of power when it is considered necessary, means they also have it when they say it's necessary, and when you and I might not be in favor of it.

I will admit, there are times when government power is a good thing. A lot of us were glad that the National Guard came in to help quell the L.A. riots for example. Of course, government officials in cahoots with mainstream media have done their best to keep this information out of the mainstream. And of course, there have been many attempts to discredit and disprove the above allegations that did get out and were noticed by Americans, with both government officials and everybody else involved denying anything and everything even resembling the evidence I have uncovered.

However, regardless of my being blacklisted, I will be digging deeper, determined to get to the bottom of all this, I will report my findings here on Conspiracy Watch ASAP. I am also working on an article right now which investigates the mysterious deaths of several government whistelblowers, including the suspicious murder of Milton William Cooper, the former US Navy intelligence officer who publicly warned America about an important terrorist attack that would later be blamed on Osama Bin Laden, who was killed by the FBI at his home while serving a routine warrant.

Together with the Patriot Act, NDAA and the ever more empowering Executive Orders, our President could make life extremely hard on us. Anyone displaying any kind of up anti-government sentiment, like myself, could easily be made to look like an enemy of the state, arrested and sent to any one of these FEMA camps without notice or due process, in the name of protecting the existing social and political order.

With the NDAA and the Executive Order, Obama can suspend federal, state and local law enforcement, effectively using the US military as his own personal police force.

And at the drop of a hat we could be like Nazi Germany, in America.

All it would take would be the President's Executive Order.

NDAA is Worst Legislation since Patriot Act

Never Mind SOPA, PIPA or even the New ACTA, the NDAA Bill is the Worst U.S. Legislation since the Patriot Act!

What is Wrong Our President, Our Senate, Our House and the Rest of Our Government allowing Oppression last seen in the former Soviet Union?

With all the gift-giving and partying over the holidays, all the other attention given to the social action to repeal the legislation of SOPA and PIPA, and now the new ACTA, plus god knows whatever else our leaders are trying to put on us, I can see how the general public could miss the importance of the new NDAA bill. Particularly when considering that the elitist controlled mainstream media has been ignoring or downplaying the issue, trying to avoid the public resistance that stopped the two infamous censorship bills, SOPA and PIPA.

Even if you didn't catch my recently I published articles, Repeal NDAA! Initiative to Take Back America! or New NDAA Bill Prepares U.S. for Martial Law as Washington Plans to Squash Civil Unrest, you have probably heard something about the NDAA from somewhere else, for no matter how hard The Powers That Be try to keep it out of the headlines, nobody can keep something this huge a secret very long.

However, if you don't know what all the fuss is about, let me sum it up for you: Last New Year's Eve, President Obama signed the NDAA, or National Defense Authorization Act, which gives him, and any future president, the ability to use the military against the America people.

Yes, as of January 1, 2012, anyone the government considers a "threat" to the nation can be arrested off the street and detained indefinitely without representation of an attorney and without due process. Not by the FBI or local police, but by the military! Does this remind you of something?

Yes, according to the bill, the U.S. Military can snatch you out of bed in the middle of the night, without telling anyone, anything. No warrant, no reasonable doubt. No lawyer. No trial. Just like the Gestapo did  in Germany before and during WWII. 

This legislation is by the same politicians who claim that veterans returning from combat, anti-abortion and anti-big government believers were potential domestic terrorists. I guess I had better start worrying!

I don't know if it's out of fear of the chaos and anarchy that could erupt should our economy collapse, or if it's just part of the elitist plan for a New World Order, but either way our government has decided to turned the Land of the Free, into a police state. Or should I say, a military state, primed for Martial Law?

After 9/11, when the War on Terrorism was just beginning, President Bush enacted the Patriot Act. This allowed the government to spy on Americans, monitoring their phones, mail, financial records and activities to discover whether or not someone was a terrorist. It brought about changes in law enforcement that trampled on citizen's rights like nothing before in the history of the United States. Until now.

The provisions of the Patriot Act allows the government to spy upon U.S. citizens while the NDAA also allows the government to arrest a citizen for no reason other than being "suspected" of terrorism, setting the stage for Martial Law. 

Even though many Americans were willing to trade privacy for safety and security, many people don't realize that this is exactly what both the terrorists and our politicians wanted all along. The terrorists have succeeded in making us live in fear and change our care-free lifestyles, while our government got the green light to tighten the noose of control around our necks.

Although I am not saying that our politicians were involved in the 9/11 attacks, or in cahoots with the terrorists like some conspiracy theorists are claiming, I must admit that the terrorists did some of our power-hungry politicians a favor.

To demonstrate how our politicians are using fear to strengthen their grab for power, Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina argued that the law would only apply to U.S. citizens' who have aided Al-Qaeda or other terrorist organizations.  He made up a story of how a U.S. citizen might fly to Pakistan to receive terrorist training, only to return home and shoot fellow citizens, using this fairy-tale example of how one single U.S. citizen might become a possible risk, to justify doing away with a citizen's right to due process and trial by jury.

The NDAA bill should have the entire country calling for the impeachment of any and all politicians responsible for the NDAA. While normally this is just an act which details the monetary calls of the Department of Defense which is passed every year, the changes in the bill  for the 2012 fiscal year and can be seen as an extension of the Patriot Act. 

How could this law have been passed, I ask, when it is clearly unconstitutional? The Fourth Amendment grants liberty from unreasonable search and seizures and the Sixth guarantees every U.S. citizen trial by jury. No matter what the bill's supporters might have claimed about the provisions being misunderstood, the fact remains that it is unconstitutional.

In a country that once prided itself in a law that guaranteed legal representation and due process, and meant being innocent until proven guilty, this is an disturbing change of which many American are even unaware of.

Knowing good and well that the bill is unconstitutional, and just plain wrong, President Obama released a statement regarding NDAA:

"Moreover, I want to clarify that my Administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American citizens. Indeed, I believe that doing so would break with our most important traditions and values as a Nation. My Administration will interpret section 1021 in a manner that ensures that any detention it authorizes complies with the Constitution, the laws of war, and all other applicable law."

President Obama went on to say that, "...his administration will not authorize the indefinite detention of American citizens." However, Obama also said that he would close Guantanamo Bay, that he would recall the troops from Iraq within 16 months of taking office and that he would end the Bush tax cuts. No matter why these promises were not kept. They weren't kept. 

President Obama stated concern about the provision which would allow the military to be used in place of law enforcement and indefinitely detain American citizens. However, is the President doing anything to reverse of suspend the provision to give the military this new power?

If you would like to read the President's very own absolutely meaningless words for yourself, the Statement by the President on H.R. 1540, can be found in it's entirety on whitehouse.gov, HERE.

The People's Resistance

Not long ago the Internet united against the two censorship bills, SOPA and PIPA, which would have given the U.S. Government new powers to shut down websites believed have violated copyright laws. The Internet responded with thousands of forwarding all their traffic to a website directing people to call their Representatives to protest the “Internet Censorship Bills” going through Congress. Over 13 Million American citizens did, prompting Congress to suspend both bills indefinately.

This demonstrated that Representative Democracy works to a certain extent if people participate! But this participation must be in great numbers, and must include both voting and calling elected officials. As I mentioned in my article, Repeal NDAA! Initiative to Take Back America!, it's not from perfect, but it is better than bowing down to a dictator or king. Even the wealthy elite know their limits to how far they can push us. As I mentioned before, they remember the French Revolution, and they surely remember the guillotine.

Unfortunately, most people don't call their representatives until it is almost too late. They wait until the last possible moment, after something terrible has happened, before finally taking action. If we the the people wait until Martial Law has been declared to call our Representatives, chances are it will be too late.

Repeal the NDAA

On February 3rd there is a Nationwide NDAA 2012 Congressional Protest planned to oppose NDAA, so if you haven’t called your Representatives by then, do so on February 3rd in order to unite with as many people as possible in a productive form of participatory democracy! You could of course organize a similar event in your hometown, your state, nationally or online. The options are endless and the support is everywhere.

Representative Ron Paul recently introduce legislation to repeal section 1021 from the NDAA (the section giving the military said powers). We should flood our representatives phones, officies and mailboxes with demands they support Rep. Paul’s H.R. 3785, and repeal section 1021 from the National Defense Authorization Act. To find a links of petitions and resources to appeal the NDAA bill, go to my article, Repeal NDAA! Initiative to Take Back America!

The implications of the Patriot Act, NDAA, SOPA, PIPA, ACTA and other government grabs for power are getting bolder all the time, as they step on our rights and freedoms. For example, according to Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, there are laws regarding terrorist suspects in America in place by the Department of Justice against having a food supply lasting at least seven days can be grounds for being suspected of terrorism.

I have  a pantry which contains more than a seven day food supply. Worse, I am writing a story that is against the politicians in Washington. Can I be seen as an enemy of the United States of America?

I don't think so!

FBI using Patriot Act to Target and Squash Peaceful Political Activists

FBI using Patriot Act to Legally Target Activists

The FBI and other law enforcement agencies are now using the Patriot Act as legal recourse to target and terrorize political, peace and even environmental and animal activists who are not willing to say in line with the status quo!

Just recently, it was revealed that a counter-terrorism firm spied on individuals who attended film screenings of a documentary that focuses on the practice of natural gas fracking and what impact it has on the environment and in the communities where it is used, titled Gasland.

The FBI has filed 164,000 suspicious activity reports written up on activists who did not follow government policies. For example, in California, 27 individuals are set to go on trial for protest actions. In Pennsylvania, activists even faced terrorism charges for writing slogans in chalk on sidewalks. But this is just the beginning of a frightening nationwide trend. Check out my Wednesday, May 4, 2011 article, A Sign of Things to Come: Police Brutality, Mass Arrests, Tear Gas Against Peaceful WIU Students.

The US government has armed the FBI and other branches of law enforcement with the Patriot Act, to apply Gestapo tactics and tools designed to fight terrorism to impose oppression on political activists, stepping on their freedom of speech and assembly rights, instead of protecting the American people from true terrorist and criminal threats.

Its no wonder that there are more and more people in America who fear law enforcement more than they fear terorists and criminals!

Carlos Montes, a co-founder of the Brown Berets Chicano Movement said, “the protest movements are directly exposing and challenging the lines that the US government puts out,” he said, yet law enforcement authorities continue to crack down without just cause. “It’s a war against dissent. They’re trying to stop us but we’re not going to let them do it.”

Law enforcement  is using violence and brutality to stop a movement which is merely exercising its right to free speech and the right to protest.

I suspect these really are signs of things to come. In fact, I believe its going to get a whole lot worse.

This writer wouldn't be surprised if the United States would declare Martial Law within the next couple of years.

What do you think? Do you think that government control is going to increase? Do you believe that Martial Law is possible in the not so distant future of the United States of America?

14 of the Most Ridiculous Things Americans are being Arrested for

Almost Everything Is A Crime In America Nowadays

Doesn’t it seem like everything fun is a crime?

If its fun its illegal!


Americans are being arrested and charged with crimes for doing things like leaving dog poop on the ground, opening up Christmas presents early, not recycling properly, farting in class and having brown lawns.  But is it healthy for our society for the police to be involved in such silly things?  Every single day the United States inches closer to becoming a totalitarian society.

While there are some that would welcome this shift, the truth is that throughout history the societies that have experienced the greatest economic prosperity have all had at least a certain level of freedom. 

Business thrives when people feel free to live and work. 

When a government tightens the grip too much many people just start shutting down.  Just look at places like North Korea.  Even though the rest of the world is sending them huge amounts of food starvation is still quite common in that totalitarian regime.

That is why it is so disturbing that it seems like almost everything has become a crime in America now.  As we continue to criminalize relatively normal behavior our slide toward becoming a totalitarian state will only accelerate.

We are throwing anyone and everyone in prison these days.  It is getting absolutely ridiculous.  Today, the United States leads the world in the number of prisoners and in the percentage of the population in prison.

 

The United States has 5% of the world’s population, but approximately 25% of the world’s incarcerated population.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics, as of the end of 2009 a total of 7,225,800 people were either on probation, in prison or on parole in America.

That is a sign of a very, very sick society.  Either we have a massive crime problem or the “control grid” that our leaders have erected for us is wildly out of control. Or both.

But how in the world are we supposed to have a healthy economy if our entire nation is being turned into one gigantic prison?

Sadly, it is not just hardcore criminals that are being rounded up and abused by authorities these days.  The following are 14 of the most ridiculous things that Americans are being arrested for….

#1 A Michigan man has been charged with a felony and could face up to 5 years in prison for reading his wife’s email.

#2 A 49-year-old Queens woman had bruises all over her body after she was handcuffed, arrested and brutally beaten by NYPD officers.  So what was her offense?  The officers thought that her little dog had left some poop that she didn’t clean up.

#3 A 56-year-old woman who was once a rape victim refused to let airport security officials feel her breasts so she was thrown to the floor, put in handcuffs and arrested.

#4 In Milwaukee, one man was recently fined $500 for swearing on a public bus.

#5 Several years ago a 12-year-old boy in South Carolina was actually arrested by police for opening up a Christmas present early against his family’s wishes.

#6 In some areas of the country, it is now a crime to not recycle properly.  For example, the city of Cleveland has announced plans to sort through trash cans to ensure that people are actually recycling according to city guidelines.

#7 A 12-year-old girl from Queens was arrested earlier this year and taken out of her school in handcuffs for writing “Lex was here. 2/1/10″ and “I love my friends Abby and Faith” on her desk.

#8 Back in 2008, a 13-year-old boy in Florida was actually arrested by police for farting in class.

#9 The feds recently raided an Amish farmer at 5 AM in the morning because they claimed that he was was engaged in the interstate sale of raw milk in violation of federal law.

#10 A few years ago a 10-year-old girl was arrested and charged with a felony for bringing a small steak knife to school.  It turns out that all she wanted to do was to cut up her lunch so that she could eat it.

#11 On June 18th, two Christians decided that they would peacefully pass out copies of the gospel of John on a public sidewalk outside a public Islamic festival in Dearborn, Michigan and within three minutes 8 policemen surrounded them and placed them under arrest.

#12 A U.S. District Court judge slapped a 5oo dollar fine on Massachusetts fisherman Robert J. Eldridge for untangling a giant whale from his nets and setting it free.  So what was his crime?  Well, according to the court, Eldridge was supposed to call state authorities and wait for them do it.

#13 Once upon a time, a food fight in the cafeteria may have gotten you a detention.  Now it may get you locked up.  About a year ago, 25 students between the ages of 11 and 15 at a school in Chicago were taken into custody by police for being involved in a huge food fight in the school cafeteria.

#14 A few years ago a 70 year old grandmother was actually put in handcuffs and hauled off to jail for having a brown lawn.

Why in the world would anyone approve of the police arresting ordinary Americans for such things?

It seems like ever since 9/11 the whole country has gotten “security fever”.

Suddenly we need to “get tough” on everyone.

Yes, crime is making a comeback, but once upon a time the police in this country were able to handle crime quite well and be courteous and helpful to ordinary citizens at the same time.

But today it seems like nearly every single encounter with police ends up being negative.

It does not have to be that way.

The rest of the world sees what is going on in this country and many of them are deciding that they simply do not want to spend their tourist dollars here anymore.  That is not a good thing for our economy.

As the government continues to get even bigger and exerts even more control over our lives, many of our own people are getting sick of it and are moving abroad.

America used to be the land of the free and the home of the brave.

That is no longer true.

Now we get thrown to the floor, handcuffed, beaten and arrested for things that we did not even know were crimes.

If America continues to move in this direction it is going to ruin our economy, our reputation in the world and our national spirit.

Unfortunately, history has shown us that once a free nation starts to lose that freedom it is hard to reverse that slide.  Perhaps we will be different.  Perhaps the American people will stand up and demand that we restore the principles of liberty and freedom that this country was founded on.

Do you think that will happen?  Feel free to leave a comment with your opinion….
