Yes!
Lots of information on this - some good and some dire. Jeff Rense
recently
showed photographs of one of these supposed camps and I think that it
was
somewhere in Michigan.
I'm not sure that there is this plot to 'enslave' Americans and I'm not
sure whether these camps are actually to be used for US 'prisoners'. I
think that we'd all like to hear some factual information about this
rather
than being told about Executive Orders signed by Bill Clinton.
Certainly the US military has at it's disposal a great deal of
technology
which could be used against US citizens but under what circumstances
would
this take place? I recently posted information on various sites relating
to
a document written in 1997/8 by British academics entitled "An appraisal
of
technologies for political control - an interim study" (Scientific and
Technological Options Assessment (STOA) group of the European
Parliament.
Report number PE 166 499/Int.St. dated 19th January 1998.)
Here is the most interesting part of the report;
""5.6 Second Generation Incapacitation Weapons
In the Nineties, the revolution in so called 'non-lethal weapons' was
given
fresh impetus by new US programmes to fight internal conflicts -
ostensibly
without casualties. The US Government was driven towards finding a
universal panacea because of a series of embarrassing and widely
publicized
debacles including the Rodney King beating, the Waco siege and their
unfortunate experiences in Somalia, where they failed in crowd control
operations with only lethal technology. The new policy was avidly pushed
in
the States by the likes of Col. John Alexander (who made his name as
part
of the Phoenix Assassination programmes during the Vietnam war) and
science
fiction writers such as Alvin Toffler (Toffler, 1994) and Janet and
Chris
Morris, (Morris & Morris, 1990, 1994) and picked up by the
36
------------------------------------------------------------------------
DoD and Justice Department.
Thus a second generation of kinetic, chemical, optico-acoustic,
microwave,
disabling and paralyzing technologies is on the horizon, to join the
existing arsenal of weapons designed for public order control. Much of
the
initial new work has been undertaken in US nuclear laboratories such as
Oak
Ridge, Lawrence Livermore and Los Alamos. Many cynics see the work as a
rice bowl initiative with scientists looking for new weapons projects to
justify their future careers as the cold war made their old skill
redundant. Already they have come up with a Pandora's box of new
technologies. These include:
* Ultra-sound generators, which cause disorientation, vomiting and
involuntary defecation, disturbing the ear system which controls balance
and inducing nausea. The system which uses two speakers can target
individuals in a crowd.
* Visual stimulus and illusion techniques such as high intensity strobes
which pulse in the critical epileptic fit-inducing flashing frequency
and
holograms used to project active camouflage.
* Reduced energy kinetic weapons. Variants on the bean bag philosophy
which
ostensibly will result in no damage ( similar claims were once made
about
plastic bullets). (See Fig. 32)
* New disabling, calmative, sleep inducing agents mixed with DMSO which
enables the agent to quickly cross the skin barrier and an extensive
range
of pain causing, paralyzing and foul-smelling area-denial chemicals.
Some
of these are chemically engineered variants of the heroin molecule. They
work extremely rapidly, one touch and disablement follows. Yet one
person's
tranquillization may be another's lethal dose. (See Fig. 33)
* Microwave and acoustic disabling systems. (see Fig. 34)
* Human capture nets which can be laced with chemical irritant or
electrified to pack an extra disabling punch. (See Fig. 34)
* Lick 'em and stick 'em technology such as the Sandia National
Laboratory's foam gun which expands to between 35-50 times its original
volume. Its extremely sticky, gluing together any target's feet and
hands
to the pavement. (See Fig. 35)
* Aqueous barrier foam which can be laced with pepper spray.
* Blinding laser weapons and Isotrophic radiator shells which use
superheated gaseous plasma to produce a dazzling burst of laser like
light.
(See Fig. 36)
* Thermal guns which incapacitate through a wall by raising body
temperature to 107 degrees.
* Magnetosphere gun which delivers what feels like a blow to the head.
We are no longer at a theoretical stage with these weapons. US companies
are already piloting new systems, lobbying hard and where possible,
laying
down potentially lucrative patents. For example, last year New Scientist
reported that the American Technology Corporation (ATC) of Poway
California
has used what it calls acoustical heterodyning technology to target
individuals in a crowd with infra-sound to pinpoint an individual
200-300

metres away. The system can also project sonic holograms which can
conjure
audio messages out of thin air so just one person hears.79 Meanwhile,
Jane's reported that the US Army Research Laboratory has produced a
variable velocity rifle for lethal or non lethal use a new twist to
flexible response.80 Other companies are promoting robots for use in
riot
and prison control.
The National Institute of Justice in the US is now actively soliciting
new
ideas for such weapons from corporate bodies,81 and corporate US has
responded with bodies like SPIE (The International Society For Optical
Engineering), which have enthusiastically responded with a special
conference on 'Enabling Technologies for Law Enforcement and Security'
at
the Hynes Convention centre in Boston, Nov 19-21, 1996. The panel on
less
than lethal technologies has experts talking on subjects such as: The
non-lethal laser baton; design of a variable velocity gun system for law
enforcement applications; sticky shocker; definition of lethality
thresholds for KE less-lethal projectiles; violence reduction and
assailant
control with laser sighted police pistols; directed energy technologies:
weaponisation and barrier applications; pepper spray projectile for
countering hostage and barricade situations; aqueous foam as a less than
lethal technology for prison applications etc. A formal Pentagon policy
on
the use of non-lethal weapons was prepared last year in response to
Congressional instructions to initiate a joint acquisitions programme.
Whilst there are practical problems regarding whether it is preferable
to
leave an enemy or a citizen dead rather than permanently maimed, and
whether or not hallucinogenic or other psychotropic 'calmative' agents
fall
foul of the Chemical Weapons Convention, the spending call was for $15
million annually over the next three years, to fund new and existing
projects.82
Critics of such projects suggest that non-lethal war is a contradiction
in
terms. Many of the so called non-lethal weapons are in reality are far
from
non-lethal. They can and have killed, maimed, blinded and scalped
innocent
bystanders. There is a real danger that they will make conflicts more
lethal by enraging crowds and by paralysing people making them more
vulnerable to other operations by the military and security forces. In
that
sense these weapons could be considered pre-lethal and actually lead to
higher casualty rates. (See above) In fact the US proponents of these
weapons are under no illusions. Their focus is 'not to replace lethal
munitions but to augment existing and future capabilities which will
provide a spectrum of force response options.'83 The area most
commentators
have not addressed is the extent that such weapons will help the
military
create new roles for themselves as part of internal policing operations.
Most of the debate has been about their role in war. We know from the
proceedings of the Non Lethal Defence II conference, (organised by The
American Defence Preparedness Association held in March last year), that
the that the Joint Program Office of Special Technology Countermeasures
(JPO-STC) have developed a multi-service co-ordination strategy that
incorporates both the HQ Allied Forces of Southern Europe and the
'Doctrine
& Training HQ' of the United Kingdom.84 Other formal liaison links
between
the USA non-lethal research community and Member States are anticipated
but
little public information has emerged.
The work done so far has led to dubious weapons based on dubious
research,
strongly influenced by commercial rather than humanitarian
considerations.
There is a pressing need for a wide ranging debate in the European
Parliament of the humanitarian and civil liberties implications of
allowing
these weapons on to European soil to become part of the technology of
political control in the EU. Much of the work that has been undertaken
in
secret, but part of the bibliography of the present report covers a
representative sample of the available literature. What is required is a
much more detailed assessment of these weapons than space
permits here and it is recommended that a new study be commissioned to
achieve this work.

Stories of millennial doom are not surprising in the least and various
people on the fringes have been claiming that 'the end is nigh' for
several
hundred years in the US of A - and yet things grind on....but what is
going
on behind closed doors and what do the authorities really have up their
sleeves?
It occurs to me that large triangular platforms would be ideal for
delivering such 'non-lethal' technology...

Trust the computer industry to shorten "Year 2000" to Y2K.
It was this kind of thinking that caused the problem in the first place.
