Repressive U.S. Government
Crackdown on Freedom(s)
The United States and the world are going insane on an express train to hell. That is the ultimate logical conclusion that anyone like myself, who is not anti-religious, or at least anti-Christian, and who truly and fully discerns what is going on right now and refuses to bury their head(s) in the sand about it, has to come to once they cease their avoidance, denial and refusal to believe that it is indeed true, and that IT IS happening.
In particular, the U.S. government and the government of the U.K. are in the process of setting up “panopticon” police states in their respective countries that are almost every day becoming more and more authoritarian, oppressive and repressive like regimes of “third-world dictatorships”. (SEE also Alex Jones’ and Paul Joseph Watson’s great article from the former’s Prison Planet.com website, “The Panopticon: A Mass Surveillance Prison for Humanity.”)
If it wasn’t for the “U.S.A. Patriot Act” recently having been “bipartisanly” (sic) reapproved and extended with very little added protections of civil liberties with any teeth to them, the U.K. would thus far almost appear to be the worst offender, with public video surveilance, invasion of privacy, and arrests of average “anti-war-sentiment” citizens more widespread than in the U.S. as yet, at least as far as most U.S. citizens are thus far aware.
But, as a result of the fact(s) that the “Patriot Act” does exist, with all of the truly-Orwellian, repressive authority that it gives to U.S. police agencies, both federal and local, in what is allegedly the freest, most democratic country on the planet, or ostensibly used to be, that the more and more severe and draconian crackdowns of dissent in the U.S. are ever-increasing and unprecidented, which in all likelihood will very soon, if they do not already, rival and go far beyond the U.K. government in level(s) of repressiveness and severity, in overall numbers of people repressed if nothing else, and the fact that the U.S. government’s extremely dismal, violent, mass-murder, and mass-imprisonment human rights and civil liberties record exists as it does, those who are not and will not be in avoidance and denial of the facts must come to the inescapable and unavoidable conclusion that in sum-total the extent of repression by the U.S. government far exceeds that of the U.K. government, and that the U.S. government is the most extreme offender.
Yes, the U.K. government has its “counterpart repressive law(s)” which are in fact intentionally and/or inadvertanty competing “neck and neck” with the repressive “Patriot Act”, yet the U.K. has never been as democratic and free of “monarchical-dictatorial repression” as the U.S. has been, or at least has never had as much of the appearance of being so-free as the U.S. has had.
What do the “Red” Countries and other repressive regimes think of the U.S. government?
All of this ever-increasing repression in the U.S. must make communist China, other repressive regimes, and true terrorists who are not agents, assets, puppets, pawns, and/or patsies of U.S. government and allied “intelligence” and “counter-terrorism”, as most of the “terrorists” are, exceedingly happy that the U.S. government and others’ are “following in their footsteps” by way of instituting ever more red-communist-like crackdowns on freedom and dissent, and that the U.S. presidency is becoming increasingly monarchical and dictatorial, like their “rogue” regimes. Of course, as everyone who is knowledgeable of the True History of the U.S. government knows, the U.S. government is by far the worst “Rogue State” of them all; which, naturally, most if not all of the other “rogue states” have been well-aware of for quite some time, never mind that most of the “American” people have been “blissfully” unaware of that fact for just as long, and still are.
Now, enter the scene last week, President Hu Jintao, leader of red-communist China, in a visit to the U.S. during which, as he began to speak on the White House lawn, he was “heckled” by a dissenting and protesting Chinese-American journalist for his and his country’s notoriously horrific human rights record, and asking President Bush to seek to stop Hu’s and China’s human rights offenses, only to have at least one hand of a U.S. Secret Service agent, as she was arrested and carted off, placed over her mouth in an attempt to silence her in front of God, country and the President of China, in the land of the Constitutional rights to exercise and carry out “free speech” and “dissent”.
Almost but not quite needless to say, the U.S. far-right-wing radical extremist fascism- supporters, propagandists, agents, and/or assets are claiming that the fact this show of protest and dissent by this lone woman was not prevented, will supposedly make Hu and/or China’s other leaders “….mistrust… American intentions towards China” (SEE previous link), while of course completely sidestepping the fact that Bush and Company’s swift police-state response to the incident will undoubtedly make Chinese leaders at least somewhat gleeful for its distinct similarity(ies) to China’s equally-swift responses to such dissent, and rather than “….play to their worst fears and suspicions about the United States….”, on the contrary plays to their admiration for the ways in which China and the U.S. are alike, in ways that are anything but free and democratic, and that are completely contrary to the very Constitutional principles for which China no doubt knows the U.S. is supposed to stand.
In other words, the eerily similar response of the U.S. “goon squad”, to how China’s goon squad would have responded to the incident, is not lost on President Hu and the other leaders of China, and they undoubtedly revelled in it to some degree; in fact, it may very likely have made Hu feel at home, almost as if, at least somewhat, and/or momentarilly, he was home in the repressive country and regime of his birth. What an awful reflection the Bush police state thereby brought about on “….the land of the free….”!
Then add to that the fact that Bush apologized for the protester, which amounts to an apology for the Constitutional, First Amendment freedoms that supposedly exist in the U.S.; and, in addition, add the fact that the U.S. government is deeply “in bed”, or “imbedded”, with China in trade, commerce and in receipt of multi-billion dollar loans from China; and you have even more a recipe for increasing U.S.-government-created dissaster(s) and repression.

In his testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday, General Michael Hayden promised to promote autonomy and objectivity in the CIA if confirmed as its new director. Hayden assured the senators he would provide “hard-edged assessments” and be tolerant of dissenting views on intelligence matters. “When it comes to speaking truth to power,” Hayden declared, “I will lead CIA analysts by example. I will… always give our nation’s leaders the best analytic judgment.”
The evidence, however, suggests precisely the opposite. As head of the National Security Agency, this 4-star general walked in lockstep with his commander in chief, George W. Bush. Hayden helped designed the illegal program of spying on our telephone calls and emails and then repeatedly defended it when interrogated by the senators at his hearing, citing “legal” opinions of Bush’s hired guns in the Justice Department.
Rather than providing the White House with a neutral assessment of Iran’s nuclear capabilities, we can expect Hayden to give Bush the “intelligence” the president seeks to justify his war on Iran. Things did not run as smoothly as Bush would have wished under the last two CIA directors. He had to dispatch Dick Cheney to the CIA several times to furnish the “intelligence” he needed to rationalize his war on Iraq.
Senator Carl Levin (D-Mich.) asked Hayden if he was “comfortable” with under secretary of defense for policy Douglas Feith’s personal intelligence-analysis cell, which hyped a link between Iraq and Al Qaeda. Hayden said he wasn’t comfortable with it and protested that he wasn’t aware of a lot of the activity going on leading up to the Iraq war.
But when questioned about Colin Powell’s use of false WMD information to support his infamous appearance before the United Nations in the run-up the war, Hayden made a telling admission.
