And don't forget the extreme violations of our Constitution. Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus and arrested somewhere around 14,000 civilians in the North because he considered them threats.
Now how come that wasn't part of the NWO but this is? I could literally go through item after item of events in American history that are similar to today and yet they passed without a lasting permanent effect.

The one part always missing out of these conspiracies is the reason why.
What does the government possibly have to gain by destroying their populace?
Money, power, control?
It seems that if they have the ability to do everything your predicting then they already have those things. You always need to come up with a motive for conspiracies before you put together pieces.

As reported elsewhere, some of this purchase order is for hollow-point rounds, forbidden by international law for use in war, along with a frightening amount specialized for snipers. Also reported elsewhere, at the height of the Iraq War the Army was expending less than 6 million rounds a month. Therefore 1.6 billion rounds would be enough to sustain a hot war for 20+ years. In America.
The MaxxPro MRAP is built to withstand ballistic arms fire, mine blasts, IEDs, and other emerging threats. Its V-shaped hull helps deflect blasts out and away from the crew and its armoring can be customized to meet any mission requirement.
The instructions seemed very specific. Infiltrate web forums, collect screen names, avatars, and posters’ tag lines, and attempt to resolve these to their actual identities.

She was buddies with Bill Clinton. She was the darling of the liberals. Do you find the quote meaningless? If Donald Duck said it, it would still resonate with the Liberal/Democrat party. It is literally their creed in order to install Socialism in America.

Kumbayah, and all that stuff.
Sit around the fire, my friend, and pass your peace pipe.
I have been studying--astutely--the changes in American policies, economics and government (as have many of us here) for many, many years.
You can't afford to keep your head in the sand.
If you're not interested in knowing the truth, why belong to ATS?
I am sure there are all kinds of interesting spiritual sites on the web that you can go hang out in.
Some of us here are trying to get to the bottom of what is happening in the world.
So, please....
Let us do that,
Okay?

I wonder how many of those it would take to control 300 million people.
Quite a few I imagine.
Look at the Japanese internment. The government put around 110,000 in camps and basically couldn't control them. It wasn't violence that was the problem, it was logistics...keeping them housed and fed. The camps eventually became open so the people could fend for themselves.
Now how is the government going to control millions. Even the Nazi's running at full extermination couldn't handle more than a few million at a time. Stalin would probably be the best example of controlling a populace but he didn't do it openly, he did it through starvation under the guise of communism and people didn't realize what was going on until it was too late.
Once they did you saw immediate changes in the communist system.
There is simply no way to outright go to war with the American populace and hope to win.

They store the traffic and let computers do the sorting. Its all there. Your every keystroke is being saved as evidence against you. By computers. Not for any real "monitoring", but just in case they need to build a case against you for some future reason.

That is the problem.
Word will get out about what's going on and we've seen from numerous interviews with Nazi soldiers as well as Soviet soldiers and French soldiers in the Algerian war that they did not know about the horrors being committed.
By their own admission, had they known they would not have participated. Its impossible to hide millions of people being arrested and murdered, this is the problem Stalin ran into.

I'd like to gently ask you how much you have studied your stance.
Because I truly believe, that after years of studying the history, the economics, the events, the people and the actions of this country in the past 20 years (and much, much farther back if you'd like to get technical), and exclaim to you--as many, many intelligent people have-- that there is certainly something askance.
It has much more to do with than just the economy.
But I'd have to gently ask you to put THREE good years of study, of reading, of thinking, of talking to others, of going to the library, of putting on a serious thinking cap..
before you discount something you seem to know so little about.
