THE EYE SEES YOU  

               AS THE PUBLIC IS KEPT BLIND  
 
                        By: SARTRE  

When will the policy makers step forward and establish an agency 
for LIBERTY? Well, as any sincere observer of public affairs knows, 
government doesn't have the ability to give you what you already 
possess - your natural rights. Their function is always to strip you 
from the means to effectively guard and easily exercise your freedoms. 
The latest, and surely not the last attempt to regiment society under 
the dominion of the all seeing eye, is exactly what we have in the 
Information Awareness Office.  

Under the auspices of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency 
(DARPA), the central research and development organization for the 
Department of Defense (DoD), emerges the uncovered IOA project, 
designed to gather intelligence through electronic sources like 
the internet, phone, and fax lines. Why would anyone be concerned 
about the military protecting the government, isn't it a defense 
function to spy on our enemies? Well, maybe that is exactly the point. 
Note the "our" in this formula of tracking down insubordinates, just 
happens to be "US", the citizens of our own country.  

When you have a climate where the New York Times reports that the 
Justice Department acts to use new power in terror inquiries, just 
what can you expect from those within the "spook" culture? Listen 
to what the "paper of record" says about the IOA office: 

   "The Pentagon is constructing a computer system that could create 
    a vast electronic dragnet, searching for personal information as 
    part of the hunt for terrorists around the globe - including the 
    United States. As the director of the effort, Vice Adm. John M. 
    Poindexter, has described the system in Pentagon documents and in   
    speeches, it will provide intelligence analysts and law enforcement
    officials with instant access to information from Internet mail and 
    calling records to credit card and banking transactions and travel 
    documents, without a search warrant."

Now we come to the man behind this proposal, the ignoble retired Navy 
Admiral - John Poindexter. You remember him, the infamous protector 
who was convicted in the wake of the Reagan administration's Iran-
Contra scandal of five felony counts of lying to Congress, destroying 
official documents and obstructing a congressional investigation into 
the matter. The convictions were overturned on appeal. No surprise here 
- we all know who the courts work to insulate from justice . . .  

Who could forget this little gem from Poindexter during a congressional 
hearing:

   "[It is] not fair to say that I have misinformed Congress or other 
    Cabinet officers. I haven't testified to that. I've testified that 
    I withheld information from Congress. And with regard to the Cabinet 
    officers, I didn't withhold anything from them that they didn't want 
    withheld from them."  

Surely, this attitude makes him more than qualified to guard the secrets
- YOUR secrets - privacy is no longer required in this age of terrorism,
the STATE must protect itself from the likes of you and me!

Don't believe that's the objective, than just look closely at the symbol 
on the IOA logo. What do we have, that familiar Illuminati all seeing eye 
. . . It has been around for centuries, just look at a dollar bill, before 
it is retired from circulation. Most have been taught that it is just a 
representation of the eye of God, and not that "Eye of Horus" or the 
"All-Seeing Eye". You judge for yourselves. There surely, can't be 
anything sinister about an office that has a goal of total domestic
surveillance? Only the paranoid have to worry, we all know we can 
trust the government . . .  

As the frog swims comfortably in the warm waters of the national pool 
of security, no one would dare question the motives of the bureaucracy, 
especially one that has the charge of Total Information Awareness. The 
assurance of Pete Aldridge, the chief of technology for the Defense 
Department will allow your sleep to go on undisturbed: "It is absurd 
to think that DARPA is somehow trying to become another police 
agency." Homeland Security is now the priority, right? What possible 
fear could citizens have about a government that openly places the 
watching oculus symbol on the very money we use to sustain life? 
Poindexter is an officer and a gentleman, he will do a good job and 
collect all the intelligence needed to complete the task and win the 
war. But what war is really being fought?  

Alan Morrison in THE MEANING OF FREEDOM looks at it this way: 

   "It matters not a jot whether a Democrat or Republican is in the 
    Presidency. The outcome of elections are merely the result of social
    manipulation. "Democracy" is simply the freedom of the people to vote
    for their next dictator (who is actually only a figurehead for those 
    who really rule)! Of course, Americans are very proud of their country;
    which is why they cannot accept these things. But their country is not 
    at all what it may seem to them. National pride so easily enshrouds 
    truth."

The Information Awareness Office has an accurate name to confer comfort.
When will the public begin their own rescue from the boiling pond of 
this deceptive security and confront their own comprehension? Or will 
that task be left to all the Poindexter's who will inform them of 
what they understand and should know about being an American? The 
mere fact that this "made man" is so willing to follow orders should 
give you pause: "It's how do we harness with technology the street 
smarts of people on the ground, on a global scale . . . mission is 
to develop the technology, not the policy. It would be up to Congress 
and policymakers to debate the issue and establish the limits that 
would make the system politically acceptable."

Why worry about the Illuminati controlling society when you already 
have the likes of military men who are willing to fall on their swords 
to protect their masters? Or is it as simple as there is no difference 
between the legend and the reality! IOA will be watching you and wants 
to know your answer . . .
