After watching the short movie on the unlawful detainment of innocent Muslim men, it did not leave me shocked or surprised. I was aware of these unlawful detainments caused by the so called “War on Terrorism”, “War on Terra”, “War against Islam fascist” or whatever it’s called today. These state sanctioned crimes arose out of the greed that Bush’s “War on Terror” created and Cheney’s one percent doctrine of the defense and national security apparatus doing whatever it wants if there is a one percent perceived threat against American interests. In a hunt to find Bin Laden and Islamic fundamentalist terrorists, the defense and intelligence apparatus distributed millions of dollars to warlords and tribal chiefs to inform. Instead dreaded, evil terrorists, innocent men were swept up in the dragnet due to its easy profitability. This event is one of many events in the nation’s history that brought shame and disdain upon us.
I am really not sure who this event has any implication on how I see the future. While I empathize with these men for being subjected to this unlawful treatment, it is not a top concern for me since I have no personal stake in this issue. I’m not a Muslim or know any Muslims who were victims of a rendition or unlawful detainment. The United States has been an outlaw nation for a long time now. Some would argue since its inception. Issues that shape my opinion of the future are the current plight of the economy, quality of the job market and the two faced government. These issues are immediate and affect me directly. Hypothetically speaking, it is possible to relate the video with the issues that govern my opinion of the future.
Should this $700 billion ++++ corporate welfare not work out and the economy continues to decline causing the cost of living to shoot up higher than it is and massive joblessness, the government will declare martial law to deal with the inevitable social unrest. The police state will be more realized than it is now during this second Depression. Until the rest of the military can be transported back home, fragments of our armed forces, government law enforcement agencies and mercenaries will do the rounding up of activists, protestors and anybody else they can touch and place them in interments camps, courtesy of your friendly war and disaster profiteer, Halliburton. Once the civil unrest has been quelled, the government will create an atmosphere of paranoia amongst the populace. TIPS program times 100, enormous networks of informants, surveillance drones, targeted assassinations of labor and rights activists and all the other authoritarian shit that was illegal inside for use domestically now perfectly legal due to protect Union.
Hopefully this is just another paranoid vision of mine, but the potential is there.
