FEMA Executive Orders Paved The Way For Emerging Police State Hell
New Orleans is just the first to fall

In
the wake of the unfolding police state crisis in New Orleans and the
Federal Coup d'Etat of all Constitutional laws there it begs the
question, how could this happen?
The
answer lies with the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the
multiple executive orders that have gradually and symptomatically
eroded away all aspects of the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
It
is FEMA that is handling everything and systematically implementing the
police state. "It is FEMA who is really calling the shots and setting
priorities here," Lt. Gen. Carl A. Strock, commander of the US Amy
Corps Engineers has said of the events in New Orleans.
So let us take a look at how FEMA has paved the way for the emerging police state hell.

FEMA
is not an elected body, it does not involve itself in public
disclosures, and it even has a quasi-secret budget in the billions of
dollars. It has more power than the President of the United States or
the Congress, it has the power to suspend laws, move entire
populations, arrest and detain citizens without a warrant and hold them
without trial, it can seize property, food supplies, transportation
systems, and can suspend the Constitution. Not only is it the most
powerful entity in the United States, but it was not even created under
Constitutional law by the Congress.
A
Series of Executive Orders dating from the 1960s onwards underlines the
history of FEMA. The plan for total control of every aspect of our
lives has been under construction for a long time. Below are just some
of the Executive Orders relating to FEMA. As you read them, bear in
mind that they mean nothing by themselves. They are not law, nor can
they become law by and of themselves: |
- Executive Order Number 12148
created the Federal Emergency Management Agency to interface with the
Department of Defense for civil defense planning and funding. An
"emergency czar" was appointed. FEMA has only spent about 6 percent of
its budget on national emergencies. The bulk of their funding has been
used for the construction of secret underground facilities to assure
continuity of government in case of a major emergency, foreign or
domestic.
- Executive Order Number 12656
appointed the National Security Council as the principal body that
should consider emergency powers. This allows the government to
increase domestic intelligence and surveillance of U.S. citizens and
would restrict the freedom of movement within the United States and
grant the government the right to isolate large groups of civilians.
The National Guard could be federalized to seal all borders and take
control of U.S. air space and all ports of entry.
- Executive Order 10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.
- Executive Order 10995 allows Seizure of all communications media in the United States.
- Executive Order 10997 allows Seizure of all electric power fuels and minerals, public and private.
- Executive Order 10998 allows the government to take over all food resources and farms.
- Executive Order 10999
allows Seizure of all means of transportation, including personal cars,
trucks or vehicles of any kind and total control of highways, seaports
and waterways.
- Executive Order 11000
allows Seizure of all American people for work forces under federal
supervision including the splitting of families if the government finds
it necessary.
- Executive Order 11001 allows seizure of all health, education and welfare facilities, public and private.
- Executive Order 11002 empowered the postmaster general to register all men, women and children in the U.S.
- Executive Order 11003 allows seizure of all airports and aircraft.
- Executive Order 11004
allows seizure of all housing and finance authorities to establish
Forced Relocation Designated areas to be abandoned as "unsafe."
- Executive Order 11005 allows seizure of all railroads, inland waterways and storage facilities, public and private.
- Executive Order 11051
specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and
gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of
increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.
- Executive Order 11921
allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to
establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution,
of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in
U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also
provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President,
Congress cannot review the action for six months.
So
you see The Federal Emergency Management Agency has broad powers in
every aspect of the nation. Should it so wish it can completely wipe
out the Constitution, yet this would be completely unlawful as it was
not created under Constitutional law by the Congress.
FEMA
is exactly the kind of parasitic bacterium that the founding fathers
warned Americans to stay vigilant against. The images interspersing
this article provide us with visual indications that a federal takeover
has occurred in New Orleans and all of the above executive orders are
operative.
We have also documented how FEMA has set up internment camps all over the US to hold citizens deemed to be "enemy combatants" in times of crisis.
FEMA,
which has endlessly drilled for such situations, has been complicit in
hindering outside efforts to help in the wake of the disaster. After
the authorities in Baton Rouge had prepared a field hospital for
victims of the storm, FEMA sent its first batch of supplies, all of
which were designed for use against chemical attack, including drugs
such as Cipro, which is designed for use against anthrax. The London Guardian reported,
"We called them up and asked them: 'Why did you send that, and they
said that's what it says in the book'," said a Baton Rouge official.
According to Jefferson Parish President Aaron Broussard, Federal bureaucrats have 'Murdered' the Flood Victims in New Orleans. Broussard stated on Meet The Press that " We have been abandoned by our own country." |

He
broke down in tears as he described how FEMA has cut emergency
communication lines and has been turning back fuel and water supplies
being sent by outside agencies such as Wal Mart.
This
is because the Federal Government wants complete control over the
situation. Broussard, speaking through his tears re-iterated "nobody's
coming to get us, nobody's coming...for God's sake shut up and send
somebody."
Local officials no longer have any authority and have been forcibly evacuated, even despite the fact that they wished to stay and oversee the recovery efforts.
Even American Red Cross officials have said
that FEMA authorities would not allow them to deliver aid. "The
Homeland Security Department has requested and continues to request
that the American Red Cross not come back into New Orleans," said
Renita Hosler, spokeswoman for the Red Cross.
Former FEMA officials have admitted
that Government disaster officials had an action plan if a major
hurricane hit New Orleans. They simply didn't execute it when Hurricane
Katrina struck. Ronald Castleman, the former regional director for the
Federal Emergency Management Agency and John Copenhaver, a former FEMA
regional director during the Clinton administration who led the
response to Hurricane Floyd in 1999, said they were bewildered by the
slow FEMA response.
The Times-Picayune of New Orleans has called for the firing of FEMA director Michael Brown and has heavily criticized the government for its awful response.
Former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, Paul Craig Roberts has agreed
that FEMA has deliberately withheld aid, and cut emergency
communication lines, and automatically made the crisis look worse in
order to empower the image of a police state emerging to "save the
day". He even insinuated that the shoot to kill policy was part of the
overall operation in order get an awful precedence set to aid the
military industrial complex takeover of America.
"The
power of the Federal Government is now greater than at any time, it'll
never go back and the Posse Comitatus Act has been eroding ever since
it was passed in 1878..." Roberts asserted.

FEMA
is now simply a federalized front group for the corrupt money hoarding
Department of Homeland Security, the Orwellian titled agency that has
nothing to do with security and everything to do with limiting the
freedoms of people all over the country.
