A short while ago I got a call from a writer friend of mine that lives in New York, terrified that the US government was going to “disappear” him. He's been writing articles suggesting that all of these current horrors are simply a cover for a military coup of the United States. Over the past couple of days it's becoming clear that perhaps he was right.
As everyone knows by now, Bush was not legally elected. That was the first step — they've shown that the American population is perfectly willing to rally around a president that they didn't even elect. Now they're doing step two, and dissolving the democratic process altogether and converting the US to a military run police state. Be vigilant, do not let this happen!
They've readied Fort McNair for Congress's relocation. They've been detaining legitimate US politicians who have anti-war politics. They have convicted US students for supporting anti-war causes because they say it disrupts the education process. They have formed the terrifying Homeland Security agency, and now have extended the “terror alert indefinitely“. Insane new government secrecy laws are being instituted. They are refusing US media access to war information (remember the quote: “Tell them nothing till it's over, and then tell them who won“). If you really want to be shocked, watch some non-US TV for a while, and you'll see that what gets shown on CNN dramatically leaves out most of the story. (PS. That's a link to the NY Times, a membership form will pop up — it's free to register).
I'm totally unimpressed by the FBI's handling of the Anthrax case, especially its public appeals for help. The FBI has offered a one million dollar reward, and has asked people to compare handwriting on letters they get (remember the messed up Anthrax letters written in block letters?). I love the fact that the government is actually blaming the public for this — the Mayor of Balitmore said, “The FBI have 7,000 people on the job. We've got 650,000 if only they would call.” (Yeah, all those people are just hiding the information).
Even though the US population as a whole doesn't seem to know what's going on because of tight controls on media and education, this is turning the US into not only the world's most hated country, but is giving it an air of incompetence internationally. Read the international papers. I'm not talking about fringe papers, I'm talking about the mainstream papers from around the world, and you'll see a barage of stories talking about how America is losing this war badly and how no one should ever go to America if they carry a non-US passport. Endless stories about the bombing of non-military villages and idiotic “defense” plans aren't helping.

PPS. Any time you're looking for that link to look at experiences, it's the one on the main index labelled “Work”.
PPPS. If you ever want to prove to anyone how helpful you have been, you can make a link like this on your page:

Of course you'd put your own name instead of “glider”.
