The Obama administration has acknowledged its continuing a Bush-era policy authorizing the killing of U.S. citizens abroad who are SUSPECTED of being a terrorist, in total violation of his Oath of Office to protect the Constitution of the United States and the right of citizens (*5th Amendment) to a trial when accused of a crime.
(* "No person... shall be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law"...)
The act of assassination is obviously much worse than public outcries against unlawful detention or torture.
The confirmation came from Director National of Intelligence Dennis Blair in Congressional testimony last week. Blair said: Being a U.S. citizen will not spare an American from getting assassinated by military or intelligence operatives overseas if the individual is working with terrorists and planning to attack fellow Americans.
Rep. Dennis Kucinich said it is not much of a stretch, in that terrorist cells have been said to be working within the United States, to expect the administration to conduct these assassinations of citizens in our country. Furthermore it is also conceivable that anyone SUSPECTED of being or acting with a administration designated terrorist organization to be murdered while sleeping or taken from their home in the middle of the night and assassinated.
This is especially worrysome considering the recent Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) information. MIAC is part of the federal Fusion Center effort now underway around the country.
Obama has joined the Bush policy of using the war on terror to violate the rights of American citizens. The Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) report in conjunction w/the Department of Homeland Security has issued a report which specifically describes supporters of presidential candidates Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, & Bob Barr as militia influenced terrorists and instructs the Missouri police to be on the lookout for supporters displaying bumper stickers and other paraphernalia associated with the Constitutional, Campaign for Liberty, and Libertarian parties.
The MIAC report does not concentrate on Muslim terrorists, but rather on the so-called militia movement and conflates it with supporters of legitimate Third Party candidates, Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, Bob Barr, the so-called patriot movement and other political activist organizations opposed to the North American Union and the New World Order.
Police are educated in the document that people who are anti-abortion, own gold, display an assortment of U.S. flags, or even those that talk about the film Zeitgeist, view the police as their enemy and conflates them with domestic terrorists like Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, Olympic bomber Eric Rudolph and other domestic militia groups who have been charged with plotting terrorist attacks. FOX News reports, DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano called Fusion Centers the "centerpiece of state, local, federal intelligence-sharing" in the future.
