=============================================================================== Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Submitted by Col. (Dr.) Byron T. Weeks 11-3-97 From 'Monitoring Times' Magazine 1-1-95 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Under FEMA the Executive Orders which are already written and are the current law of the land, call for the COMPLETE suspension of the United States Constitution, all rights and liberties, as they are currently known. The following executive orders, which are in the Federal Register located in Washington DC for anyone to request copies of, call for the suspension of all civil rights and liberties and for extraordinary measures to be taken in, as most of the orders state, "ANY national security emergency situation that might confront the government." When F.E.M.A. is implemented, the following executive orders will be immediately enforced: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. (Executive Order) 12148 - FEMA national security emergency, such as: national disaster, social unrest, insurrection, or national financial crisis. E.O. 10995 - "... provides for the seizure of ALL communications media in the United States." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 10997 - "... provides for the seizure of ALL electric power, petroleum, gas, fuels and minerals, both public and private." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 10998 - "... provides for the seizure of ALL food supplies and resources, public and private, and ALL farms, lands, and equipment." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 10999 - "... provides for the seizure of ALL means of transportation, including PERSONAL cars, trucks or vehicles of any kind and TOTAL CONTROL over all highways, seaports, and waterways." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 11000 - "... provides for the SEIZURE OF ALL AMERICAN PEOPLE for work forces under federal supervision, including SPLITTING UP OF FAMILIES if the government has to." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 11001 - "... provides for government seizure of ALL health, education and welfare functions." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 11002 - "... designates the postmaster general to operate a national REGISTRATION of all persons." [Under this order, you would report to your local post office to be separated and assigned to a new area. Here is where families would be separated]. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 11003 - "... provides for the government to take over ALL airports and aircraft, commercial, public and PRIVATE." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 11004 - "... provides for the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, designate areas to be abandoned and establish new locations for populations." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 11005 - "... provides for the government to TAKE OVER railroads, inland waterways, and public storage facilities." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- E.O. 11051 - "... the office of Emergency Planning [has] complete authorization to put the above orders into effect in time of increased international tension or economic or financial crisis." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All of the above executive orders were combined by President NIXON into Executive Order 11490, which allows all of this to take place if a national emergency is declared by the President. The burning and insurrection in Los Angeles in the case of Rodney King could have executed [and partially did execute] these Executive Orders. Executive Order 12919: "National Defense Industrial Resources Preparedness" signed by CLINTON June 3, 1994, delegates authorities, responsibilities and allocations of FEMA's Executive Orders [last entry] for the confiscation of ALL PROPERTY from the American people, and their re-location and assignment to 'labor' camps. The Executive Order also supersedes or revokes eleven (11) previous Executive Orders [from 1939 through 1991] and amends Executive Order 10789 and 11790. ================================================================================ [Added by MW]: How close is the U.S. to a "national emergency"? You may be surprised that technically, the U.S. government already believes that we are under a national emergency (see below). Is this the writing on the wall for U.S. society? =========================================================================== +------------------------------------------------------------------+ | NOTICE | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | Message Creation Date was at 12-NOV-1997 17:03:00 | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | THE WHITE HOUSE | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | Office of the Press Secretary | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | For Immediate Release November 12, 1997 | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | CONTINUATION OF EMERGENCY REGARDING WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | On November 14, 1994, by Executive Order 12938, I declared a | | national emergency with respect to the unusual and | | extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, | | and economy of the United States posed by the proliferation of | | nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons ("weapons of mass | | destruction") and the means of delivering such weapons. | | Because the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and | | the means of delivering them continue to pose an unusual and | | extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, | | and economy of the United States, the national emergency | | declared on November 14, 1994, and extended on November 14, | | 1995 and November 14, 1996, must continue in effect beyond | | November 14, 1997.

CLINTON | | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | THE WHITE HOUSE, November 12, 1997. | +------------------------------------------------------------------+ ==============(Note: the following is a newspaper article)===================== DEFENSE CHIEF SAYS U.S FREEDOM MAY HAVE TO BE CURTAILED Defense Secretary Calls For Even More Preventative Measures From Staff and Wire Reports, The Times of the Ark-La-Tex 15 September 1997 Submitted by Danny Cox | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | Terrorism is escalating to the point that Americans soon may | | have to choose between civil liberties and more intrusive means | | of protection. Defense Secretary William S. Cohen says. | | The nation's defense chief told the Army Times he once | | considered the chilling specter of armored vehicles surrounding | | civilian hotels or government buildings to block out terrorists | | as strictly an overseas phenomenon. But no longer. | | It could happen here, Cohen said he concluded after eight | | months of studying threats under the Pentagon microscope. | | Free-lance terrorists with access to deadly chemical and | | biological bombs are "going to change the way in which the | | American people view security in our own country, he predicted | | in a Sept. 10 interview. | | Cohen is calling for the government to step up its efforts to | | penetrate wildcard terrorist organizations. | | "It's going to require greater intelligence on our part - much | | greater emphasis on intelligence gathering capability, more | | human intelligence, and it's going to take more technical | | intelligence," he said. | | But using the U.S. military in a domestic law enforcement role | | would require revisions to laws in force for more than a | | century, cautions Shreveport attorney John Odom Jr. "You can't | | do it from the the Defense Department side unless Congress | | dramatically revises the Posse Comitatus laws." said Odom, a | | colonel in the U.S. Air Force Reserve and a reserve judge | | advocate. | | The 1878 law specifically prohibits the use of the military in | | domestic law enforcement unless authorized by Congress or the | | Constitution and does not allow for military intervention | | through action by the secretary of defense or even an executive | | order from the president, Odom said. | | "We're trained from the first day of judge advocate school to | | think of Posse Comitatus !! Odom said. "If Secretary Cohen is | | suggesting that the Department of Defense be involved, it may | | be part of a legislative package. but it will not happen | | unilaterally without a lot of folks thinking long and hard | | about it." | | Cohen said terrorism would be a top priority in five new areas | | he plans to focus on now that he has wrapped up his first | | defense budget, the quadrennial review of the military and a | | new, four-year defense strategy. | | Other goals include modernizing the military, improving troops | | housing and other benefits, streamlining the defense | | bureaucracy and shaping new military relationships and contacts | | across the globe. | +------------------------------------------------------------------+
