Paranoia grips the U.S. capital

By Eric Margolis -- Contributing Foreign Editor


The film Seven Days In May is one of my all-time favourites. The gripping 1964 drama, starring Burt Lancaster, depicts an attempted coup by far rightists in Washington using a top-secret Pentagon anti-terrorist unit called something like "Contelinpro."

Life imitates art. This week, former military intelligence analyst William Arkin revealed a hitherto unknown directive, with the Orwellian name "JCS Conplan 0300-97," authorizing the Pentagon to employ special, ultra-secret "anti-terrorist" military units on American soil for what the author claims are "extra-legal missions."

In other words, using U.S. soldiers to kill or arrest Americans, acts that have been illegal since the U.S. Civil War.

2. bush does to Iraq what he plans to do to USA..

Iraq is practice..then Iran..N. Korea and finally the streets of the USA where all dissidents will be executed or chipped.....
Most of the US Congress is in on the treason ..Any decent folks left in govt are deafeningly silent


BUSH and TREASON ARE SYNONYOMS..
