554. A SIGNATURE---AND FASCISM!

The United States can easily be turned into a fascist nation at the stroke
of a pen under the provisions of the Federal Emergency Management Act. What
is being planned is cloaked in secrecy, but what has been revealed is
frightening: suspension of our Constitutional rights; arrest of political
dissenters without habeas corpus; and concentration camps, designed to hold
millions of people, which are being readied all over the U.S. No approval
by congress or state or local government is necessary to execute the plan.
Even local military or police authorities can declare martial law without
consulting higher authority. Interviewed is investigator and author Chip
Berlet. We also intersperse sections of past programs with experts who deal
with the subject of planned public persecutions, past and present. Some of
these experts include MIT's Noam Chomsky, University of Texas history
professor Tom Philpott, former CIA officer John Stockwell, and congressmen
Henry Gonzalez and Ron Paul.
