Firms Vie to Provide the Future of Border Security
As a science-fiction fan, the idea of robot drones circumnavigating the borders of the Amerikan Homeland has a certain fascination about it. But that's just one of the proposals hinted at in the Washington Post summary of the fighting between corporations trying to win the government's tender for perimeter security.
Whether or not there was any real threat to Amerika at the time ofthe events 5 years ago is uncertain. Conspiracy theorists would have us believe there may have been none and that the whole affair was engineered as an excuse for imperial pursuits. Either way, subsequent actions by the Bush administration have ensured that a real threat now exists - which makes the delay in securing the borders of the world's cesspool rather absurd.
I suspect the methodology of the final implementation will have nothing to do with what is discussed here. The final contract will probably go to the corporation in which the Bush-Cheney cartel have the most vested personal interest. After all, there is a precedent with recent military sub=contracts and the rebuilding programme (???) for Iraq.
Conspiracies or not, one of the enduring questions about the collapse of the Twin Towers is that their fall was clearly helped along by some previously planted "controlled demolition" devices. This link to Bush's Speech in the White House Rose Garden the other day is curious indeed - a reference to such activity is made around 8 paragraphs down. A slip up? The ape emperor's ineptitude is actually making him the star in most of the Democrat's election broadcasts.
In Brtiain, the Prime Preacher's waif, Cherie Blair, has been let off the hook for an act of violence perpetrated aginst an innocent teenager who made "faces" at her. Yo ho! Methinks she should reserve such actions for her husband's habit of sniffing imperial ass!
At least we now know they'll both be history within the year.
Later.
