Airline Insanity Merely A Beta Test For Police State Caste System
Draconian surveillance, identification, behavior modification
measures being implemented right outside your door

Escalating security measures, body scans, lie detector tests and
behavior analysis now being forced upon unwitting human livestock
passing through airports are the first stage of an agenda to create
a two tier caste system whereby only government authorized citizens
will be able to travel and everyone will be subject to intense
airport style harassment on city streets.

Recent incidents that caused delays and diversions on airliners -
including the latest example where a flight was turned back due to a
group of men using mobile phones - underscore the unmitigated
hysteria created by the politically timed release of the alleged
foiled plot announcement two weeks ago.

On August 14th a British Airways flight bound for New York was
diverted back to Heathrow Airport because a mobile phone rang at the
rear of the plane and its owner was not to be found.

Days later, United Airlines 923, bound for Washington from London
had to be escorted to Boston by two F-15 fighter jets after a
patently mentally ill woman began urinating on the floor and
manically talking about having visited Pakistan and making vague
references to bombs. Original reports that she had possessed a
handwritten note alluding to Al-Qaeda were later dismissed.

Today all 12 suspects who were detained after Northwest Airlines
flight 42, bound for Mumbai, had to be diverted, were freed.
Passengers grew suspicious when the men began using mobile phones
and cheering.  On the face of it this is absurd - why would
potential hijackers who would in the normal course of events be
prepared to face fierce resistance from passengers want to make
themselves conspicuous before any hijack attempt was made?

Perhaps the most ridiculous example of fear run amok occurred when
passengers on a flight returning from Malaga Spain complained about
two Asian men who they thought were potential suicide hijackers.
The evidence?  They were Asian!  To the astonishment of the students
they were marched off the plane at gun point before it took off.

Just when we thought airline security was starting to become
rational again five years after September 11, one carefully timed PR
scam has reversed all that and travelers are again treated worse
than cattle as they are shoved around airports, treated as criminals
and barked at by poorly trained screeners on little Hitler power
trips.

The agenda is clearly to maintain a state of alert and panic until
such a time that reverting back to 'normal' and 'reasoned' security
measures is forgotten - the new normal becomes the insane and
displaying any traits of disobedience to authority figures is taken
as a sign of terrorism. Lie detector tests, voice stress analysis
technology, advanced screening which produces naked images of
passengers along with brain scanner and perspiration tension
analysis systems are all being implemented as the notion of innocent
until proven guilty is jettisoned without recourse.

The airports are merely a beta test for the exact same measures to
be rolled out in major cities, where regular checkpoint officials
inspect internal passports and consumers are body scanned to enter a
supermarket or any kind of public event as spy drones swoop overhead
to catalogue movement and alert authorities to any suspicious body
language (remember Poindexter's gait analysis?).

The key to achieving all this on the part of the Neo-Fascists is to
carry out more staged terror attacks on soft targets like sports
stadiums, schools and large shopping malls. In terms of police
state propaganda, these attacks would be more effective than a 9/11
style event because the implications would reach down into the roots
of everyday life.

After more soft target terror attacks on buses and trains, citizens
will be forced to biometric scan and show ID just to enter the
transport station. Resistors who refuse to take a national ID card
and eventually an implanted ID chip will be punished by their
exclusion from a trusted travelers program that denotes how well a
citizen has behaved and compares that score to the criteria of how
and when they can travel. Nationwide toll roads snaking across the
US and Britain that use RFID signals at toll booths and instant kill
switches in private vehicles will see this nightmare extend its
tentacles into the personal vehicle of every citizen.

The majority of what I outlined is already being implemented at
major transport and police hubs in the US and Britain. When the
technology to automate these measures is more widely used, its cost
will drop and in turn spread like wildfire outside of the major
cities and into local communities - unless we scream bloody murder
and stop it before it makes it out of the airport terminal and onto
our street corners.

Thanks goes to P. Watson for the above thoughts!

Until next issue stay cool and remain low profile!
