Obama building internment camps for dissidents?

Campaign recruiting for workers at 'civilian resettlement facility'
By Bob Unruh
An ad campaign featured on a U.S. Army website seeking those who would
be interested in being an "Internment/Resettlement" specialist is
raising alarms across the country, generating concerns that there is
some truth in those theories about domestic detention camps, a roundup
of dissidents and a crackdown on "threatening" conservatives.
Are you an enemy of the state? Get the bumper sticker that lets
everyone know you have no apologies for being right!
The ads, at the GoArmy.com website as well as others including
Monster.com, cite the need for:
"Internment/Resettlement (I/R) Specialists in the Army are primarily
responsible for day-to-day operations in a military confinement/
correctional facility or detention/internment facility. I/R
Specialists provide rehabilitative, health, welfare, and security to
U.S. military prisoners within a confinement or correctional facility;
conduct inspections; prepare written reports; and coordinate
activities of prisoners/internees and staff personnel.
The campaign follows by only weeks a report from the U.S. Department
of Homeland Security warning about "right-wing extremists" who could
pose a danger to the country – including those who support third-party
political candidates, oppose abortion and would prefer to have the
U.S. immigration laws already on the books enforced.
(Story continues below)
The "extremism" report coincided with a report out of California that
the Department of Defense was describing protesters as "low-level
terrorists."
The new ad says successful candidates will "provide external security
to … detention/internment facilities" and "provide counseling and
guidance to individual prisoners within a rehabilitative program."
Officials at the state and federal National Guard levels told WND they
were unaware of the program, although one officer speculated it could
be intended for soldiers trained in the U.S. and dispatched overseas
to "detention facilities." From the national level, WND was told,
officials were unaware of any such "internment facilities" at which
there could be jobs to be available.

Alarmed by the ads, he said it, the idea "just absolutely blew my
mind."
Citing a promise that successful applicants would be trained in
"search and restrain procedures," he said, "That's code for violating
the 14th Amendment."
Likewise, he said, "use of firearms" is "code for depriving somebody
of their life.'
"This is the real deal, I think," he said, citing, among others, the
NationalGuard.com link.
"I saw something that didn't sit right with me. I posted it so other
people can investigate," he said.
A commenter on the YouTube site pooh-poohed the whole suggestion.
"You have … put out a relatively benign fact, twisted it into
something sinister, and then did a tinfoil-hat connection to give a
false impression," the forum participant wrote.
The ads list as "advanced responsibilities" issues such as supervision
and administration, responsibility for the "prisoner/internee"
population, "custody/control for the operation of an Enemy Prisoner of
War/Civilian Internee (EPW/CI) camp," and work on "custody/control for
the operation of detention facility or the operation of a displaced
civilian (CD) resettlement facility."
An editorial at CanadaFreePress.com raised some overall concerns:
Let's look at some of the evidence we have of the U.S. government's
intentions to establish the infrastructure that could be used to house
large numbers of political dissidents, so-called terrorists and other
individuals the U.S. government wants locked up.
HR 645 the National Emergency Centers Establishment Act is a proposed
bill in the U.S. House of Representatives that would authorize FEMA to
build no less than six National Emergency Centers throughout the U.S.
on closed or open military facilities. These facilities are to be
designed to house large numbers of people. Why would emergency centers
need to be built on closed or open military facilities unless there
was a need to keep people from coming in and out of them?
KBR was granted a government contract a few years ago to build
facilities to house illegal immigrants. Now with illegal immigration
becoming less of a problem with the U.S. economy in the toilet, these
facilities can now be used for other purposes.
"This is just another step in the U.S. government's long term plan to
build the infrastructure that could be used to contain wide spread
popular revolt. Combine this with the swine flu fear mongering and the
potential for a mass swine flu vaccination operation and it is easy to
see what might happen. Refuse to take their poisonous vaccine and you
might risk being locked up as being a hazard to public safety. With
the economy in the toilet and more and more people not trusting either
political party or the corporate media, the 'powers that be' realize
that they need to continue building their martial law apparatus. These
Army National Guard job listings are just another piece to that puzzle
proving what we already know is being built," the editorial claimed.
At the Examiner, a commentator wrote, "Correctional/internment
facilities? I have to admit that the U.S. government is good at one
thing: creating fluffy names for evil acts. During WW2, of course, the
U.S. didn't have concentration camps, we had 'relocation centers' for
hundreds of thousands of innocent Japanese citizens."
The jobs also were listed at Jobsearch.money.cnn.com,
employmentguide.com and freedomsphoenix.com.
WND reported when the DoD eventually withdrew a training manual
question that linked protesters across the United States to
terrorism.
That followed by only weeks a Department of Homeland Security report
that described as "right-wing extremists" those who oppose abortion
and support secure national borders.
Richard Thompson, president of the Thomas More Law Center, has told
WND that as part of his organization's research for its lawsuit over
the DHS "extremism" report, it has discovered additional information
that it is withholding now but will include in a pending amended
complaint.
Thompson said one of the things that sparked the organization's
curiosity was a reference by DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano in the
original report to not only government resources but also non-
governmental resources.
Thompson said the information he has "creates even more concern that
the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is unconstitutionally
targeting Americans merely because of their conservative beliefs."
The earlier DHS report was "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and
Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and
Recruitment." WND has posted the report online for readers to see.
The report linked returning veterans with the possibility of
terrorism, and when it was released it created such a furor for
Napolitano she has given several explanations for it, including that
she would have reworded the report and that it was issued by a rogue
employee.
She later apologized to veterans for having linked them to terror.
But Thompson noted that the report also targeted as "potential
terrorists" Americans who:
Oppose abortion
Oppose same-sex marriage
Oppose restrictions on firearms
Oppose lax immigration laws
Oppose the policies of President Obama regarding immigration,
citizenship, and the expansion of social programs
Oppose continuation of free trade agreements
Are suspect of foreign regimes
Fear Communist regimes
Oppose a "one world" government
Bemoan the decline of U.S. stature in the world
Are upset with loss of U.S. manufacturing jobs to China and India, and
more
Thompson told WND no apology has been offered to the members of any of
those classes of citizens.
Thompson said the original "extremism" report was "the tip of the
iceberg. … Conservative Americans should be very outraged."
The Thomas More Law Center filed its lawsuit against Napolitano and
the DHS on behalf of nationally syndicated conservative radio talk
show host Michael Savage, Gregg Cunningham of the pro-life
organization Center for Bio-Ethical Reform Inc. and Iraqi War Marine
veteran Kevin Murray.
It alleges the federal agency violated the First and Fifth Amendment
constitutional rights of the three plaintiffs by targeting them for
disfavored treatment and chilling their free speech, expressive
association, and equal protection rights. The lawsuit further claims
that DHS encouraged law enforcement officers throughout the nation to
target and report citizens to federal officials as suspicious
rightwing extremists and potential terrorists because of their
political beliefs.

Soplar,
I just hope you and the other right-wing scum working yourselves into
a Tim McVeigh paranoia do it quickly so that law enforcement marksmen
can sense you guys in the crowd and pick you off.
Once you crazies are thinned from the herd ASAP, the rest of us can
get on with building a 21st century society that will be the example
to everyone else as a leader in the progress of human civilization.
But the only way that will be possible is when terrorists and
anarchists like yourselves pop your heads up like mallards in the high
grass, as you always do when you get in a homicidal or genocidal
hateful rage in an attempt to further the regress of human
civilization. It's at that moment that the best of us take the likes
of you out for the benefit of the rest of us.

I remember the Right getting very, very quiet on this topic, right
after their photographs of a "FEMA camp" turned out to be a North
Korean prison.
