POPSBig Brother Expands, Introducing Police Headcams Surveillance insanity. The Security merchandisers (who prey on fear and technological enthusiasm) are extracting huge profits from government, at the expense of both citizens tax dollars and privacy. Ironic how the Land of Orwell tolerates this surveillance insanity to buy the latest technological devices as if they are "necessary". Robocop is surely coming in the future, where "remote policing" will probably be the new fad. Watch for headcams to come to American soon....it always follows the UK's lead. national roll-out of head cameras after regional trials proved they were successful in fighting crime, the Government has announced. Of course studies have proven that the UK's CCTV cams DID NOT prove successful in deterring or fighting crime , but that did not prevent their continued and expanded use either.

POPSObama Lied to Win Election on "Defending Our Liberties" These were Obama's words of hope and "change" before election to office....but today you will not hear him say this. While justly railing against Bush, Obama has done the same in regard to warrantless surveillance (see Cato article). The Constitution and Bill of Rights, our liberties, are still being trampled. This is proof he broke his promise and is no savior of American liberties. Need more? Look at how much like Bush and Cheney he is here from WSJ: Obama Channels Cheney Obama adopts Bush view on the powers of the presidency.

POPSAttack on Ft. Hood, Nov. 5th Guy Fawkes Day Interesting timing: "Remember, remember the 5th of November" . Psy-op staged? Virginia Tech graduate? What exactly was this conspiracy to kill all about? Growing list of direct news sources with some commentary at CLG, which military and government sites are reading avidly.

POPSBig Brother Monitoring Your Clipmarks, Blogs, Tweets "Visible", a very extensive and sophisticated CIA-based monitoring program is in effect watching online forums, blogs, twitters, and likely Clipmarks (where influential clips are easily tabulated). After all, it's all in the public domain, where whatever you post you must own. In-Q-Tel says it wants Visible to keep track of foreign social media, and give spooks “early-warning detection on how issues are playing internationally ,” spokesperson Donald Tighe tells Danger Room.

POPSSupport the JUSTICE Act to Amend PATRIOT ACT Abuses This is about the Constitution and freedom for Americans from government intrusion. Read this and consider contacting your Congressmen immediately. This is a non-partisan issue. If conservative republicans in particular really support the Constitution they need to man-up and support this to really "defend freedom", instead of paying lip service to our liberties! What do you think 1776 was all about anyway? It was about restraining government from tyranny, in particular from the more conservative Tories under King George! Obama wants to continue the same Bush provisions...is that good....to sacrifice your precious liberties for "security"? You ought to know better than that: Those Who Would Sacrifice Liberty for Security Deserve Neither -- Ben Franklin "In short, the JUSTICE Act would give government agents powerful tools to spy on suspected terrorists, while preventing them from spying on YOU."

Welcome to the human plantation where the government is the proverbial Farmer from Orwell's dictatorial Animal Farm....in America. . This is phase 1 under the plea of "necessity" of course. More "experiments" will come later as the sheep get used to it.

POPS9/11 and Israel--Mossad Agents Arrested in Aftermath You will not see these hard facts reviewed on Alex Jones or Loose Change video, any more than through the MSM. (However, Carl Cameron on FOX news did reveal that Israeli spies were arrested under PATRIOT ACT after 9/11 ). Read the entire well-researched article for much more The Jewish weekly The Forward reported that the FBI finally concluded that at least two of the detained Israelis were agents working for the Mossad , the Israeli intelligence agency, and that Urban Moving Systems...was a front operation. This was confirmed by two former CIA officers, and they noted that movers' vans are a common intelligence cover. The Israelis were held in custody for 71 days before being quietly released. How did they know there would be an event to document on 9/11? Note this took place in New Jersey too, where Michael Chertoff was AG at the time, who got them released .

POPSUK's Surveillance Society, and Their Devices This is in the UK but being deployed in America too. This BBC site has on-going reports and videos that are very informative, and awakening. See their latest video report here on deployment of "unregulated road cameras" that are screening all vehicles through license plate recognition. The word "freedom" is losing its meaning entirely when government can do whatever it wants.

POPSAnother "Alleged Plot": FBI Creates Then Arrests Terror Patsies How come the only terror plot arrests are those the FBI is directly involved in manufacturing? Because that's how they come about in truth-- Entrapment There was "no chance" the scheme could succeed because the FBI was completely involved and in control in setting up the entire operation! This is the pattern of the Sears Tower arrests too. This article goes on to tell about other "alleged plot" arrests how the "Islamic extremists" who are "suicidal" are pleading "not guilty" (jihadists?) and allege they were set up: The men had claimed they were set up by an unscrupulous informant. The pattern by the FBI in this story is very similar to their role in the first 1993 WTC bombing (here) . It is necessary to "terrorize" Americans in order to accomplish the radical agenda that began under Clinton, accelerated under Bush, and continues under Obama.

POPSBiometrics: Government Gone Wild! Brain scans and "thought police" next? Paranoid security freaks and liberty-haters run both UK and US governments and the security merchandisers are eager to make profits from taxpayers for high-tech (and unconstitutional) toys that "search and seize" your personal effects without a warrant. Why are they so afraid of the people? Is it because they know people will resist such draconian control they want in place? Big Brother government is no "government of the people", but government above, and removed from, the people.

POPSHomeland Security Wants to Re-Write REAL ID The CNN headline is entirely misleading. Read the clip. They just want better compliance with States and Napolean-itano is bargaining with governors, never mind the 10th amendment and by-passing what citizens think. It will still be a National ID card irregardless of what they name it, even if the original legislation is rescinded. The goal is still the Federalization of a State drivers license , which taps into everyone's Socialist Security Number and biometric data (including facial mapping photos) , therefore linking all financial (bank accounts), medical, legal, and personal credit record by hijacking state drivers licenses for surveillance and data-mining purposes --not to thwart terrorists, but to monitor, track "free Americans" at will, whenever they choose (because you all will comply and consent). This was all based upon 9/11 of course and the typical plea of "necessity" toward a Big Brother Security State.

POPSObama Adopts Bush Policy on Domestic Spying This is a landmark moment. No 'change' here either. Was this not a major issue before, American freedoms and civil liberties from government instrusion? Will Democrats remain silent? Is a mere change of party--but not policy--enough?

POPSWill Obama Support Inquiry into Unconstitutional Bush Policies? ...or not? The Bush Memos are creating pressure. Answer: No, he will find a way not to or a distraction to avoid it (like war). Obama is covering for Bush instead of "defending the Constitution of the United States", as he swore (as did the Usurper, Bush, too). These CFR members and elite cover for each other (its in their secret oaths), just like Pelosi (also CFR) said "impeachment is off the table" as soon as Democrats had a majority (power) in Congress and could. The only way Obama would "support" this important Constitutional investigation is if he established an "independent commission" much like the phony 911 Commission to cover it all up, or bury it in legal mumbo jumbo. Time to remove the partisan blindfolds. If Obama does not support this then he is obstructing justice and aiding and abetting Bush's abuse of Executive power, and would also therefore be just as untrustworthy.

POPSMass UK Rally Against Big Brother Planned The wisdom of 1776 finally strikes the Brits who are finally hating the Surveillance State. It's high time for Americans to fight for the 4th amendment too, through legal action, as well as speaking loud and clear against the Security State. The article here calls for the equivalent of the 4th amendment for Britain. It's a shame that the U.S. has one but is letting government trample it, particularly since 9/11. (But after all, that was the real purpose of 9/11 and 7/7).

POPSEx-MI5 Chief: UK Pushes Terrorism Fear to Pass Legislation for Police State
So does the U.S.. Finally someone with credibility shakes things up. Her words vindicate what many people have been warning of, i.e. a Police State agenda enacted by legislation being pushed under exaggerated threats and fear mongering. Even the former chief of the UK's MI5 agrees then. "It would be better that the Government recognised that there are risks, rather than frightening people in order to be able to pass laws which restrict civil liberties, precisely one of the objects of terrorism: that we live in fear and under a police state." ...and I add, "and threaten our way of life". Neither was she quoted out of context, but gave this message at a deliberately opportune time for greatest impact: The former MI5 chief chose to air her views on the same day as a three-year study called for urgent measures to stop the erosion of individual freedom by states and the abandoning of draconian measures brought on with the "War on Terror".

POPSFormer Spook: NSA Spied on Journalists, All Americans Vulnerable The mark of a paranoid government, and therefore a dangerous one. Was the Bush administration afraid of what journalists were going to report on? What other motive might there be? (See video at source). It is typical of tyrannical governments to spy on their own citizens and those who might have information the government wants kept secret. (Clinton did this too using FBI records, mostly on Congress). That Americans are called "free" by Bush and the government while this goes on is to lie to our collective faces. Protest should be made to Congressional representatives to uphold the Constitution and ban all domestic spying forever.

POPSBush's Final Act, Legal Defense of Domestic Spying This shows what the Bush admin. is afraid of most, thereby demonstrating that the constitutionality of domestic, warrantless spying does not have firm legal support but was/is probably illegal (unless the 4th amendment has been stricken from the Bill of Rights). Americans, however, should have the same concern about Obama who shows no signs of "change" on domestic spying either: Eric Holder, the incoming U.S. attorney, said the Obama administration supported the spy legislation and would defend it Americans will have no freedom unless the Constitution and our rights are pressed against both the Executive and Congress.

POPSIllinois Gov. Arrested Over Obama Seat; Obama Denies Knowledge Patrick (Bulldog) Fitzgerald, the squeaky clean federal prosecutor of Libby in the Plame case, is the one behind this arrest, so you can bet it will stick. This is politics, Chicago style, where the government IS the mafia. This is where Obama got his start too, raising questions of course about how he got into power so swiftly on a fast track to become President. The context of this is most interesting and Drudge filled his front page with eight articles on the subject. If only the Feds would wire tap more Governors and politicians instead of conducting wide surveillance on the American people perhaps things would really "change" for the better.

POPSObama's New World Order; "Change" is Required Listen carefully to the words of Obama's symbolic Berlin speech. We know the "war on terrorism" will continue from his debates with McCain, his view of Israel is similar, that the Surveillance State in America will continue to expand (his FISA domestic spying expansion vote), that he will NOT repeal the PATRIOT ACT, Homeland Security, REAL ID, or other anti-constitutional Executive Orders or legislation passed by the Bush-neocon administration. He will make use of the same apparatus for the same "global transformation". "Common security" (for their order ) is still being pled in his speech based upon 9/11. The "new world order" agenda of Social Change (under plea of "common humanity", despite any other distinctions) will be dictated and you will be required to adopt it, like it or not. Listen again. The burdens of global citizenship.....Americans and Europeans will be required to do more; partnership and cooperation is not a choice".

POPSObama's "Civilian National Security Force"--Scary Sounds like KGB Russia where citizen spies watch everyone else. This is crazy! Talk about fascism and Bush's Homeland Security...this is even worse! Do Democrats want this, while they have been against Bush's draconian and surveillance state policies since 9/11? This is NOT a "change" for the better, but worse, and Obama is beginning to show his own Dictatorial dark side. Frankly, this proves he is absolutely unworthy of the Presidency, for the Constitution grants no such powers. This is Homeland Tyranny part II. Obama's vision is to radically change America and take away our freedoms toward a FORCED national collectivism.

POPSTop UK Prosecutor Indicts Big Brother; Security State a Threat to Freedom Great warning: Freedom vs. Security State, which might be "irreversible" once begun: “We need to understand that it is in the nature of state power that decisions taken in the next few months and years about how the state may use these powers, and to what extent are likely to be irreversible. George Orwell would be proud of him, and unusual stand for one inside of government and law enforcement. Considering the source, just think how legitimate this issue is! Every American should have the same concern, and the state and local level, as well the federal under the pretense of Homeland Security.

POPSPakistan Marriott: "Truck Bombing" or Other? Hotel surveillance video show the truck a long way from the main hotel (while some news says 60 ft away, that was from the entrance carriage way, not the main building). "Why did the fire break out on the fourth and fifth floors", as reports like these confirm? It was quickly labeled too as "Pakistan's 9/11". Right. Perfect for the war on terrorism that is desired there on their sovereign soil, as if there were no opponents to Musharrefs previous rule for almost a decade. This is too convenient, and the evidence of a false flag attack is now emerging while the MSM reports the official propaganda as usual. Really, what did the Marines transport into the hotel, and up to the 4th and 5th floors, prior to fire breaking out there? We need better reporting of the entire event that we have seen in western media. Side Note: After this hotel burned for several hours intensely, the building did not "collapse" like the WTC.

POPSUK Expands Total Citizen Surveillance The US tends to follow what the UK implements, and under the pretense of a "war on terrorism" the US has been following suit with little lag time. From REAL ID to the security merchandisers total camera surveillance in every state and municipality this fascism is being erected where "free citizens" are tagged, tracked, recorded, and watched like criminal suspects and the "democratic government" separates itself from and above the people. The article details yet even more: Local authorities have since adapted their own CCTV systems to capture licence plates on behalf of police, massively expanding the network of available cameras. Mobile cameras have been installed in patrol cars and unmarked vehicles parked by the side of roads. Police helicopters have been equipped with infrared cameras that can read licence plates from 610 metres (2,000ft).

POPSGoogle Chrome and Big Brother Wow. Read this and it will raise your eyebrows and make you wonder about Google. This appears in the Money report for good reason. Anyone noticed all the government, even CIA contracts, that Google has obtained lately? Consider how the "love of money is the root of all sorts of evil", and that surveillance and security merchandisers are driving the changes in government, globally, toward more totalitarian population control and that Google increasingly holds all the data and technological means they want. The public image of Google should change based upon this and other evidence as it moves closer toward the globalist corporations and the fascism they are enabling and building by partnering with governments for revenue while the people's liberties are increasingly trampled and power becomes consolidated.

POPS'Justice' Dept. Wants to Erase 4th Amendment, FBI to Have Gestapo Power
Attorney General Mukasey (neocon) wants to give broad powers to the FBI as if the 4th amendment is nothing at all instead of supreme law. The Justice Department said Wednesday that in light of requests from members of Congress for more information, Mr. Mukasey would agree not to sign the new guidelines before a Sept. 17 Congressional hearing. Can you believe this absolute corruption and blatant attempt to usurp power for federal policing? There will actually be a hearing in America's Congress to determine whether the 4th amendment will still stand--which forbids searches without probable cause! This right after the annual Sept. 11th propaganda campaign to justify ANY NEW POWERS the government wants, the Constitution notwithstanding. Mukasey has no Constitutional authority to sign or authorize this (the Constitution is above Mukasey, as well as Bush and Congress), but he wants to, after a good propaganda campaign to justify it as "necessary".

POPSFBI Illegally Obtained Reporters Phone Records by playing the "terrorism" card. The question now is, what was going on in Indonesia (where the reporters were) that made them desperate to violate the law in order to do some surveillance? (What did they fear the reporters might be on to?) Reporters should now do some research to answer the question and they would have an important story. Indonesia is a highly Islamic area targetted for change on the "Pentagon's New Map", and where the Tsunami took place.

Selling out liberty is highly profitable and driving the agenda more. Note the sales pitches and methodology to establish tyranny by identifying it with patriotic labels, just more proof that there is a global conspiracy to increase strength of governments against their people invoking the (microscopic) threat of "terrorism": The surveillance experiment is part of the heroically named Golden Shield Project (Patriot Act, anyone?) which also gave birth to another of our favorite censorship models the Great Firewall.

POPSObama and McCain Both Changing Now The Maverick is not and the "Change" candidate is shifting. Politicians are like Chameleons, changing color depending their context to fit in. Trustworthiness and forthrightness are not to be found, and considered detrimental to obtaining power, ironically, when most Americans want to reverse the present course without question, instead of simply tailoring and amending it. Don't think the BBC article is correct about McCain however, he is shifting left, distancing from Bush, since republicans are left without an alternative (except for increasing third party candidates).

Educate them with hard facts that refutes the effectiveness of ID methods as a means increasing security. Harper is the leading expert on countering ID propaganda.
