Could
Obama use NDAA To Arrest Militias?
Could
Obama use NDAA To Arrest Militias on the Premise members are Militants and
Belligerents that pose a threat to National Security?
Recently the Obama
administration stated to Federal Judge
Katherine Forest that under (NDAA) The National Defense Authorization Act of
2012 the President had
authorization to lock up belligerents indefinitely. That they (were justified)
to lock belligerents up indefinitely—because cases involving belligerents
directly-aligned with militants against the good of America—warrants such
punishment.) Pres. Obama could use NDAA provisions to order U.S.
Military Forces to round up without evidence, millions of Americans including
militias by alleging they are belligerents or a threat to National Security.
Many observers believe Obama intends to extend NDAA to imprison U.S. Citizens
in Indefinite Detention not involved with or associated with enemy forces.
Hitler included
similar provisions in his fascist (Discriminatory Decrees signed February 28,
1933). Almost immediately after the German Parliament passed Hitler’s laws, the
Reich Government ordered the arrest of German Citizens and confiscated their
guns without probable cause or evidence; delegated powers to German Police and
other authorities to arrest anyone Nazi authorities claimed attempted or
incited public unrest: arrested among others were outspoken Germans, writers,
journalists, peaceful protestors and artists. After World War II the East
German Secret Police (Stasi) used the threat of Indefinite Detention to forcibly
recruit thousands of informants.
The U.S. 2012 NDAA legislation Obama signed 12-31-11 is similar to Hitler’s
1933 fascist laws the SS and Gestapo used to target persons in Germany for
arrest, imprisonment and execution without probable cause; and confiscate
millions of dollars of property. Hitler used his laws to suspend Parliament and
the Supreme Court insuring his laws could not be rescinded.
During the Obama Administration's recent request for a (stay) to stop U.S.
District Judge Katherine Forrest blocking enforcement of vague NDAA provisions,
the Obama Administration—never clarified what constitutes a (belligerent); or
militant; or what belligerent activities (directly aligned with a militant) to
order a belligerent’s arrest or indefinite detention; or what is against the
good of America. Under vague provisions of NDAA, the President could accuse
anyone of being (directly aligned with militants by way of any political or
other association; activity, statement, writing or communication with an
individual or group government deemed (militant) to arrest and indefinitely
detain Americans. Writers, journalists, Americans that disagree with or
question U.S. Government or its allies—may under NDAA be subject to arrest and
indefinite detention.
NDAA 2012, like Hitler’s 1933 Discriminatory Decrees enforces censorship;
refers to the Patriot Act e.g. warrant-less searches of private property and
forfeiture of property from persons not charged with crime. Provisions in NDAA
2012 keep the door open for corrupt U.S. police; government agents and
provocateurs which there are many, to falsify reports and statements to target
any American, group or organization for arrest, indefinite detention, complete
disappearance; civil asset forfeiture of their property.
You may have noted NDAA referred to the USA Patriot Act. The Patriot Act lends
itself to Government / police corruption; the Federal Government may use secret
witnesses and informants to cause arrests and civil asset forfeiture of
Americans’ property. Witness(s) and informants may be paid up to 50% of assets
forfeited. Federal Government under 18USC may use a mere preponderance of civil
evidence, little more than hearsay to Civilly Forfeit Private Property. Under
the Patriot Act innocent property owners may be barred by government knowing
the evidence federal government uses to forfeit their property.
Sections of NDAA 2012 are so broad, it appears U.S. Government or the President
could (retroactively) deem an American’s past 1st Amendment activities prior to
passage of 2012 NDAA—supported hostilities, terrorism or (Belligerents) to
order the arrest and Indefinite Detention of any U.S. Citizen, writer, group or
organization.
Under NDAA 2012 it should be expected that indefinitely detained U.S. Citizens
not involved in terrorism or hostile activities, not given Miranda Warnings
when interrogated, not allowed legal counsel or habeas corpus may be prosecuted
for non-terrorist (ordinary crimes) because of their (alleged admissions) while
held in Indefinite Detention.
