I was looking through the web
There is an article which talks about an emergency government backup plan
It says that the government might use this in case of Al queita using a portable nucleur weapon in the US
The thing i find interesting is that somewhere in this site i read that the government will declare that a terrorist has entered a city with a nucleur weapon and it will amend the constitution
this is exactly what the article talks about

This is proof
The end of the world as we know it is here people
It will happen soon

Now here is the article:


"An emergency parallel government has been set up in the United States to try to ensure that federal rule could continue in the event of a catastrophic attack on Washington, US officials say.
The operation was activated after the 11 September attacks but planning dates back to the Cold War era.
It is reported to involve 70 or more officials drawn from all departments, depending on the perceived level of threat.
Those taking part live and work underground for long spells at secret fortified locations on the East Coast.
The core group of federal managers would put into effect orders from the president or his constitutional successor.
"Bunker duty"
The plan for a shadow government has been implemented now because of heightened fears that Osama Bin Laden's al-Qaeda network might obtain a portable nuclear weapon.
An unnamed senior official told Associated Press news agency that while US intelligence had no specific knowledge of such a weapon, the risk was great enough to warrant activation of the plan.
He said President George W Bush did not foresee ever needing to turn over government functions to the secret operation, but believed it was prudent to put the plan into action in the light of the war against terrorism and persistent threats of future attacks.
Other officials, who spoke to the Washington Post newspaper, said the back-up government consisted of anything from 70 to 150 people at two principal locations on the East Coast.
Once activated for what some call "bunker duty", they live and work underground 24 hours a day, away from their families.
Those deployed for the operation are not allowed to tell anyone where they are going or why. "They're on a 'business trip', that's all," one official was quoted as saying.
Out of touch
Although it does not identify the sites, the Washington Post says they make use of geological features to render them highly secure. They are well stocked with food, water, medicine and other supplies and are capable of generating their own power.
However, in their first significant operational use, managers discovered that computers were "several generations" behind current models and could not link to government databases.
There were also too few telephone lines and secure audio and video links to the rest of government.
The newspaper said that only the executive branch is represented in the full-time shadow administration. Other branches - such as Congress and the judiciary - have separate continuity plans but do not maintain a 24-hour presence in fortified facilities.
The secret operation complements the absence of Vice President Dick Cheney for much of the last five months. One official said Mr Cheney's survival ensures constitutional succession "but he can't run the country by himself".
"We take this issue extraordinarily seriously, and are committed to doing as thorough a job as possible to ensure the ongoing operations of the federal government," said Joseph W Hagin, White House deputy chief of staff.
"In the case of the use of a weapon of mass destruction, the federal government would be able to do its job and continue to provide key services and respond," he said. "

Although most American citizens dont know this, this is NOTHING new. This is simply the role that FEMA will play should something that can be considered a national emergency should strike, and would serve to trigger the FEMA protocols.

I dont remember the exact executive order or president (think it was Carter) who signed it, but this has been active under a presidential executive order since at least the 1970s, and in the early 1990s, thanks to William Jefferson Klinton, it was consolidated into law by another executive order that consolidated all previous FEMA directives (such as enabling the gov to relocate entire populations into concentration camps, forced labor camps, appropriate all private property, food supplies, ect).

As I mentioned in another thread, all it takes is something that could be construed as a national emergency. Once the FEMA protocols are triggered, our civil liberties are less than 24 hours from extinction.

It is worth noting that should something such as a small tac nuke be used in a US city, confusion would be so high as to make it totally impossible to ascertain exactly who the culprit was.... exactly the sort of situation that the CIA would just love to operate in....

Read between the lines there...

This is old stuff, the executive orders have been around since the days of JFK. There was a whole flurry of Executive Orders starting with Executive Order 10995 assigning functions to various agencies in case of a national emergency. Most of this was in response to the Cuban Missile Crisis when it really did look like the BIG ONE was going to happen. The only problem was that the original intention was that these protocols would be placed into operation only in case of a really big emergency (such as nuclear war). The only problem is that the government machinery has been developed and awaits only a "national emergency" which is ???????.
