Congratulation Mr. Bin Laden. You just defeated the largest military power in the world and that without doing much for six month.

You guys should read George Orwell's 1984.

Fun stuff.

I can't belive it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is absolutely terriifying: hey you conservative gun freaks you better start stocking up on shells.... I think that I now see why I am for gun ownership.

This is THE way that Stalinist Russia created its horrendous system . . . .

they had the Young Pioneer Corps

We have Volunteer America

they had the NKVD policing potential "crimes against the people"

we have der Homeland Securistat policing potential crimes against the people

then they had the coup de grass:

a network of citizens that all watched each other, children who were encouraged to inform on there own parents, and given citizen medals if they did etc

we now have that too.... can't find the URL but recently a young teen was praised for informing on his father who grew some weed . . . he was given a citizens medal.

Watch out because the police state seems to be coming for real this time. . . . its not from the Pinkos but from the CEO squad in government . . .. what will be next... televisions that watch you?!?!? Oh yeah, i forgot, they already have a filtering system to watch what you download and post . . . what's it called again . . . <img src="graemlins/surprised.gif" border="0" alt="[Surprised]" />

Echelon.

pbg4 dude · July 14, 2002 7:20PM

There's Carnivore as well. Although Echelon is much larger, and used worldwide.

I guess if we all do what that European guy did and tap into US spy satellites, then we can find out if they are watching us.

Hitler would be proud. So would Stalin, and any other filth and scumbags who promote fascism or authoritarianism.

America...that grand experiment in life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, diversity, freedom of expression...its dying. How sad.

I wonder who's side our so-called or alleged leaders are on. Looks more like Bin Laden's than the American people's.

...massive orgy? I'm in.

I hope no one who posts here takes part in this.I still am shocked,I can't believe this.

samantha joanne ollendale · July 14, 2002 10:32PM

From the same set of articles is this one.

John Pilger is a multi award-winning journalist. It's heartening to see that the media hasn't totally been co-opted, and there are a few who still dare to publish the fruits of their research. Mr. Pilger's bio. is here:

I can't find any reference to this subject on CNN, Fox News, or other 'real' media outlets. Can someone colaborate and get a non-wacko version of this? (so it's not a conspiracy theory)

scott_h_phd · July 15, 2002 9:54AM

I'm reporting on all of you!

That's frightening.

I pray it isn't true.

rick1138 · July 15, 2002 11:43AM

Unfortunately it is,what is even more frighhtening is the lack of coverage of this in the news,either people don't care,or someone is actively supressing the story.

"We are at war with terrorists,we have always been at war with terrorists"

scott_h_phd · July 15, 2002 11:52AM

I'm pooping in my pants over this. To think that in a time of war the citizens would be asked to report any strange activity.

I mean, the estimate is only 5000 al Queda in this country. It's not like a well funded organization is trying to kill us all or anything.

It's clear that Buskkkh is the new Hitler and not bin Laden. Bukkksh wants all the arabs in concentration camps and then put all the gays under house arrest. Next thing you know Bukkksh will want to give poor african ameraican childrent the money needed to get out of failing schools and into better private schools. Fscking racist!

But the sad part is that no one cares about what I think is very important. Why don't they care about what I care about
