The latest opportunity for authorities to grandstand, fearmonger and
practice processing citizens through a de facto internment camp fell flat on
its face yesterday after just 350 out of an expected 4,000 turned up to
participate in a mock terror drill at Chicago's Sears Centre Arena.
"An elaborate public-health drill Tuesday that organizers had hoped would
use thousands of volunteers to help test the Chicago area's response to a
possible bioterrorism attack instead drew fewer than 350 people—and one
beleaguered Cook County Board president," reports the Chicago Tribune.
"The exercise, estimated to cost $80,000, was mandated and funded by the
U.S. Department of Homeland Security, which has called for health
departments nationwide to coordinate drills since the terrorist attacks on
Sept. 11, 2001."

Perhaps the people of Chicago's lack of enthusiasm for the drill can be
explained by them waking up to the fact that these exercises are nothing
more than an excuse for fat enforcers to practice shoving people around in
internment camps while the local TV news shows images of people being
rounded up and processed by men with big guns - all part of the conditioning
for an attack we are constantly assured is "inevitable".
Or maybe it was because the only "terrorists" found in Chicago were a group
out of Miami that supposedly planned to "wage a full ground war against the
United States" and bomb the Sears Tower, but who actually turned out to be
"a bunch of dipshits living in a warehouse," as The Daily Show's Jon Stewart
described them.
As in every other case we have studied, the men turned out to be a
semi-retarded street gang that were provocateured by FBI agents into spewing
violent rhetoric yet barely had the capability to make a cheese sandwich,
never mind bring down the tallest building in America. What they were
interested in was a promise of $50,000 in cash from the government
informants who were sent in to radicalize them and create a phony victory
for Bush's war on terror.
As the Miami New Times newspaper described it, the "ragtag group couldn't
wage a ground war on a jar of peppercorns." The whole case descended into a
farce as judges repeatedly declared a mistrial while the government tried to
save face.
The fact that there are no real terrorists that are not government-run is a
moot point for government minions that get off on pathetic power trips and
bossing people around under the pretext that they are saving America from
the deadly terrorists.
As is the fact that the only bio-terror attacks against U.S. citizens in
America - the infamous biological tests in U.S. cities from San Francisco to
New York which killed Americans from the 40's to the 60's, Project SHAD,
which exposed uninformed and unwilling US military personnel and others to
deadly bio-weapons during the Cold War, and the 2001 anthrax attacks which
led back to Fort Detrick Maryland, were run by the U.S. military-industrial
complex itself.
In addition, according to the Miami Herald, "The United States held open-air
biological and chemical weapons tests in at least four states - Alaska,
Hawaii, Maryland and Florida - during the 1960s," during which they "used
artillery shells and bombs filled with the nerve agents sarin and VX,"
according to Pentagon documents.
Given that history, preparing for a bio-attack on behalf of "terrorists,"
like our warehouse dipshit friends, seems like a waste of time when the real
threat has always been from the inside.
