Tommy Franks on the probability of Martial Law in the U.S.

Nearly four years ago, after he resigned as the U.S. commander in Afghanistan, Tommy Franks predicted that we can expect martial law to be declared in the U.S. if there was any more terrorist “incident” within our borders. At that time, it looked like an exaggeration to me.

Events since then have made me wonder if we are already past the point at which Franks’ statement will materialize very soon.Look at the evidence:

  1. We know that a vast spying network was let loose on us after Bush ascended to the throne.That was done by fiat without anyone even being aware of it.
  2. A terror incident,9/11, that Bush and Cheney claim could have been prevented by the spying occurred any way,despite the clandestine and unauthorized spying.The real question is,if the spying could have prevented the terror incident, why did it occur? LIHOP or MIHOP?
  3. That incident sits like an elephant in the room and we all go in circles around it without even asking the very basic question: Cui Bono?

4.Those who profited from that are already well on their way to torpedoing the Constitution and enforce a dictatorial regime.Who amongst us is going to bell the cat?

I am hoping that men like John Murtha would inspire someone in our armed forces and the agencies to stand up and say no more.I have lost all hope that the jellyfish Democrats can summon the will do the same.
