A TERRORIST AM I?

"The word “terrorist” has assumed numerous presumptive connotations over the decades, and this trend of “redefining” the vicious label to suit certain governmental needs has only intensified in recent years, especially since 9/11.. . it has the ability to trigger abundant and subconscious emotional reactions in the populace. these reactions are usually based on mass delusions: false ideas of what terrorism is, what it is not, and who is actually guilty of these loosely classified crimes. It is a weighted word, filled with projections, biases, and faulty perceptions.

Governments across the world, and organizations such as the UN, have considered “officially” categorizing what a terrorist actually is, but claim that they have been unable to reach an accord that satisfies everyone. I feel it is much more likely that ruling bodies, most especially the UN, would like nothing better than to keep the specifics of the term as hazy as possible for as long as possible. The more elusive it is, the more powerful it becomes. . . While we tend to associate terrorism with Muslim extremism, because this is the image we have been force-fed for the past ten years, that association can just as easily be swayed or redirected to someone else depending on which person or people become most obstructive to the government’s immediate desires. At bottom, under the current cultural climate, anyone can be labeled a terrorist for any reason, even American Citizens liable for nothing more than exercising their Constitutional rights."

When corruption reigns in high places and criminals determine our fate, then our country will no longer be a republic guaranteed by law, but becomes a snake pit of liars and oppression of the many by the few. The media in the exclusive control of the elite, becomes a tool of oppression and Individual rights are subverted to the rights of the group, and rebellion or opposition to the ruling elite and their dictums becomes "un-patriotic" and dangerous. Those who would oppose are first ridiculed as crack pots, lunatics, reactionaries and finally deemed to be terrorists.

This process has been tried and refined in many countries before. The recipe is perfected. "It can't happen here" is nonsense, it not only can, but is happening. Your country is no longer your country.
