ولمحاسن الصدف ، تمهدت لى السبل للوصول الى رجل من هؤلاء الرجال الأشراف الذين وقفوا ضد جورج بوش نفسه و اعترضه بكل شهامه ، هذا الرجل كان متقدماً للانتخابات الرئاسية الأمريكيه ويعتبر من الرجال المناهضين لسياسة بوش
انه السيد ليندون لاروش الذي سعى ولا يزال يسعى بايجاد وسيله لتوقيف الحرب التي بادت وشيكه على العراق
هذا المقال كتب بيد السيد لاروش منذ يومين ، ووجدت بأنه من المهم بأن يتعرف القارء العربي على شخصيه أمريكيه مهمه مناديه للسلام في وقت بدأت دقات الطبول تسمع اعلاناً للحرب على العراق ،
تمنياتي لكم بقراءة مفيدة ومثمره انشالله

STOP ASHCROFT'S `HEINRICH HIMMLER II' BILL - WHILE YOU STILL CAN Sunday, March 16, 2003
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
Imagine!
The United States' war-machine invades Iraq. Baghdad is bombed simultaneously with thousands of cruise missiles. Violent anti-American demonstrations break out around the world. Bloody rioting threatens to topple several Middle Eastern governments. Then, a series of terrorist incidents hit U.S. facilities and personnel abroad. Television screens around the world brutalize the eyes of viewers with images of dead children in Baghdad. Around the world, the unrest and rioting builds up.
Imagine?
What will happen next? Imagine!
Attorney General John Ashcroft is on television to announce that the FBI has foiled a major terrorist plot inside the United States, a plot which he alleges would have killed thousands of Americans . He paints a picture of something on a scale equal to the Sept. 11, 2001 events. Ashcroft declares that U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies require strengthened powers to prevent terrorist attacks under these wartime conditions. Today the President will submit new emergency anti-terrorism legislation to Congress for immediate passage.
That evening, President Bush will address the nation, to demand that Congress immediately pass the "Domestic Security Enhancement Act of 2003," or members of Congress will be held accountable for the deaths of thousands of Americans, in attacks which he says terrorists are now planning on U.S. soil.
Panicked members of Congress will rush through the new anti-terrorist legislation. Only a handful of dissenting votes will resist. Most members have been too terrified to read the bill that they just passed. The new law gives sweeping new powers to the Justice Department and FBI, the same kinds of powers which Carl Schmitt's Notverordnung doctrine delivered to Adolf Hitler on February 28, 1933. After that, the members of the Congress will never vote against any bill which Ashcroft demands.
The connection is not accidental. Attorney-General t was indoctrinated in this by disciples of Chicago ity professor Leo Strauss, who owed his own career to that rl Schmitt. Ashcroft, like Vice-President Dick Cheney, act same, Leo Strauss-copied arguments of Carl Schmitt, e arguments which transformed Hitler into a dictator on y 28, 1933. With the passage of that act, the United would have given rebirth to Nazi Heinrich Himmler's state/concentration-camp system inside the U.S.A. itself.
None of the above is fiction; it is real, and ready to go. For months, staffers in John Ashcroft's Justice Department have been drafting and putting the finishing touches on a sequel to the 2001 "USA/Patriot Act" -- which has become known at "Patriot II, " better named "Heinrich Himmler II." When members of the Senate Judiciary Committee inquired as to rumors that a new anti- terrorism bill was being drafted, the Justice Department lied, denying that any such legislation was in preparation.
Don't be surprised! In January 2001, during the fight to block the confirmation of John Ashcroft as U.S. Attorney General, Lyndon LaRouche warned that, under crisis conditions, Ashcroft would be used to force through dictatorial measures comparable to the 1933 Nazi emergency laws in Germany -- the infamous {Notverordnungen}. LaRouche warned that it was not simply Ashcroft's role as head of the Justice Department that would be so dangerous, but his role as a leading member of a crisis-management team in the Administration as a whole.
That has been borne out, by, for example, Ashcroft's role in crafting the Pentagon's "enemy combatant" justification for holding terrorist suspects -- including U.S. citizens, incommunicado in military custody, removing them from the jurisdiction of the civilian courts. Likewise, Ashcroft's role in the unwarranted spreading of panic and hysteria by the new Department of Homeland Security, as in Nazi Germany.
Ashcroft is aiming at you.
Don't think for a moment that the new powers being sought by Ashcroft are only aimed at foreign terrorists and immigrants. While the first, post-9/11 round of dragnets and secret detentions chiefly targetted Arabs and Muslims in the United States, the proposed "Patriot II" would give the Justice Department the power to wield those same powers against all U.S. citizens. For example:
1. It loosens the present requirements of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) pertaining to
``national security'' wiretaps and break-ins. Currently it
is required that the target be shown to be an agent of a``foreign power'' or organization. In the new bill, the
definition of ``foreign power'' can include unaffiliated
individuals who are {not} shown to be acting on behalf of a foreign government or international organization.
2. Individuals could be subject to FISA surveillance simply if
they are suspected of gathering information for a foreign power; the existing requirement that the activities potentially violate federal law, is eliminated.
3. Purely domestic activity could be the subject of secret``national security'' investigation. A new category of
domestic security, or domestic intelligence-gathering, is
created, which allows secret surveillance; this includes ``conspiratorial activities threatening the national
security interest'' -- a category so incredibly broad that political activity could be easily fall under it.
4. The standards for ``pen registers'' (obtaining a record ofphone numbers called by an individual, and records ofInternet-mail addresses used or web-sites visited by anindividual) are enormously loosened, so that the targetneed not have any connection to terrorism. All that is necessary is that it be used ``to obtain foreign intelligence information.''
5. An American citizen could be stripped of his citizenship
and expatriated, if the Justice Department ``infers'' from his conduct that he is giving material support to an
organization designated as ``terrorist'' by the government-- even though the person believed he was supporting legitimate activity.
The ``Patriot II'' bill would also wipe out some traditional due-process guarantees, invade personal privacy, and further throw a blanket of secrecy over legal proceedings:
1. The use of secret arrests and detentions, and the exemption
of records of arrests and detentions from public disclosure, will be expanded.
2. In cases involving classified information, the use of {ex
parte} and {in camera} proceedings -- in which prosecutors
can secretly submit information to the court -- is allowed
upon a prosecutor's request. Thus, an accused person or his
lawyer is unable to challenge the goverment's information,because it is given to the judge in a closed, back-room proceeding.
3. The use of so-called ``Administrative Subpoenas'' and
``national security letters,'' allowing the government to
obtain financial and other types of records without a court
order, will be expanded, and disclosure of such a non-court subpoena is prohibited.
4. Presently, a person receiving a grand jury subpoena andtestifying before a grand jury is permitted to publiclydiscuss the fact that he has been subpoenaed and whathappened in the grand jury. The new bill would gag suchwitnesses, and prohibit them from responding to false
information or smears leaked to the press by prosecutors--a
common occurence. A witness could not talk to his family, friends, news media, or even his Congressman.
5. The new law will instantaneously wipe out a number of
court orders limiting spying and surveillance of political
activity, which were the result of lawsuits arising out of unconstitutional, ``Cointelpro''-type police and FBI programs in the 1960s and '70s.
Do you wish to see into the strange mind of Attorney- General Ashcroft? What ticks there? Look at the late Chicago University's leading fascist ideologue, Ashcroft's Professor Leo Strauss?
The state-of-mind behind such proposals, is indicated by the following background, here presented only in bare outline.(1) Recent news stories in Germany and the U.S.A. named John Ashcroft as one of a number of prominent proteges of the late philosopher Leo Strauss. Others named were: now-Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz (a leading advocate of war against Iraq for the past 12 years), Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, neo-conservative war-hawk William Kristol of the {Weekly Standard}, former Secretary of Education William Bennett, and {National Review} publisher William Buckley.
Although Strauss was nominally a Jewish refugee from Nazi Germany, he was actually one of a network of Frankfurt School Jews, such as Theodor Adorno and Hannah Arendt, who lacking the prerequisites of a Nazi Party card, left to spread their decadent philosophy against the United States which they hated as "The New Weimar." Strauss came to the United States in the 1930s under the personal sponsorship of Carl Schmitt, the "Crown Jurist of the Third Reich," who provided the legal rationales for the devolution of Weimar Germany into the dicatorial Nazi state.
Strauss, in his long academic career in the United States, never abandoned his fealty to the three most notorious shapers of the Nazi philosophy: Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, and Schmitt. Carl Schmitt, in his 1932 book {The Concept of the Political} contended, as do the Straussians today, that it is essential to define an "enemy" for the population to fight; only a belief in a mortal enemy can unify the population, and invest the regime with meaning. Today, for John Ashcroft, not only do the "terrorists" constitute that required enemy, but also, those who complain about his police-state methods. Recall Ashcroft's statement during a Senate hearing in December 2001:
"To those who scare peace-loving people with phantoms of lost liberty, my message is this: Your tactics only aid terrorists, for they erode our national unity and diminish our resolve. They give ammunition to America's enemies...."
Ashcroft's "Himmler II" legislation would give draconian, Gestapo-type powers to the Justice Department, to deal with those whom the Attorney General defines as giving aid to terrorists, by opposing the Administration's war drive, or by complaining of "lost liberty."
While you are still a citizen, make the Congress stop him, now!
