Constructing a legal framework in order to fit the unconstitutional reality of detaining people deemed a threat to the security of the state is not new. While communist dictatorships just imprisoned and shot folks without such a legal framework, the Germans, being very legalistically-mined people, did actually construct such a judicial framework in 1934 in response to their version of 911, namely the arson of the German Reichstag, the Parliament. The framework they came up with was the "Volksgerichtshof", the "people's Court".
The rationale President Obama presents here is exactly the same as that which was presented by the German government at the time. A government which was run by the National Socialist Worker's Party, aka the Nazi Party.
This is a really, truly, disturbing development.
You Might Be A Plantation Negro, if this doesn't make your jaw drop.
Targeted sting investigations, men arrested for crimes not yet committed, and indefinite detention for up to 10 years. Wow. All in 1 week.
The Feds actin' a fool under Barack.
They made a brotha Massa. Now the overseers are stinging, arresting, investigating, detaining, torturing, imprisoning and killing brothas at a record pace. This shit is kafkaesque as a muhfuggah.
