The Empire 308


The U.S. Congress Legislates Genocide Of The Mind
By Jeff Knaebel

Introduction. There are two mutually exclusive
means of livelihood. One is to work and earn from production and
exchange. This has been called the “economic means.” The second is
to seize the labor product of others through force and violence.
This has been called the “political means.” Sociologist Franz
Oppenheimer defined the State as the Organization of the Political
Means. It is the systemization of the predatory process within a
given territory.

· “There are two distinct classes of men… those who pay taxes,

and those who receive and live upon taxes.” ~ Thomas Paine

· “The State enjoys a monopoly not only on the lawful use of
violence, but on the power to define the extent of its authority.” ~
Butler Shaffer, 17 March 2006

· “You get the same order of criminality from any State to
which you give power to exercise it.” ~ Isabel Paterson, New York
Herald Tribune

“Thought Crimes,” HR 1955 Passed With 404 Votes.

Submit, Ye Citizens, Silently to State Murder.

.
The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed HR 1955, titled the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007. The full text is available at http://www.blogger.com/www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?
bill=110-1955. It was passed with 404 votes in favor.

A close reading within an historical context – keeping especially in
mind the Patriot Act and the Military Commissions Act of 2006 and
Presidential Executive Orders, pursuant to which the government has
engaged in massive surveillance of its own citizens, as well as
detentions, extraordinary renditions, assassinations, and torture –
leads me to the following conclusions:

· This is a “Thought Crime” bill of the type so often
discussed in an Orwellian context.

· It specifically targets the civilian population of the
United States.

· It defines “Violent Radicalization” as promoting any belief

system that the government considers to be extremist.

· “Homegrown Terrorism” and “Violent Radicalization” are
defined as thought crimes.

· Since the bill does not provide a specific definition of
extremist belief system, it will be whatever the government at any
given time deems it to be.

A few extracts of the Bill are presented below to show you its tone
or “flavor.”

“(2) VIOLENT RADICALIZATION- The term `violent radicalization’
means the process of adopting or promoting an extremist belief
system… to advance political, religious, or social change.”
