<br>who follow this sort of thing.<br>The Raven's Rock site, <br>the existence of it, <br>was broadcast on CNN several months ago,<br>and Mount Weather <br>has been known, for ohhh, <br>at least two decades,<br>as a site for <br>Continuity Of Government operations.<br>So the literal sites, <br>are not the secret, <br>that the present administration, <br>makes them out to be.<br>There seems to be basically, a reflex secrecy, <br>that they which to maintain, <br>about this sort of thing.<br>The question is what are these people doing.<br>Now, officially, or to listen to the, press statements;<br>their Government managers, <br>who are, sort of, supposed to be waiting around, <br>for some sort of cataclysmic attack <br>on the central Government in Washington, <br>at which time they will spring into action, <br>and be a backup, Government.<br>Well, the problem with these claims <br>is that simply isn't the way that governments work.<br>You can't, have, <br>you can certainly put several hundred people <br>in waiting underneath a mountain,<br>but if they are actually <br>to be capable of running a government, <br>and surly ,Ashcroft, and Bush, so forth know this, <br>they have to be, running the Government. <br>They have to be, <br>actually active in policy decisions, implantation of policy, and so on.<br>That's what they are doing.<br>Now, to the best, of my knowledge, <br>and to the best of, to the extent that this has been made public,<br>Their, coordinating a War On Terrorism, <br>particularly anti-terrorist initiatives, <br>for the various agencies, <br>and that type of thing.<br>The problem here <br>is illustrated from the old Iran-Contra affair.<br>What happened there, among other things, <br>was that very good regulation, <br>and oversight of the intelligence agencies, and so forth, <br>had been set up, in the wake of the, scandals of the 1970's <br>where it was revealed that <br>the CIA had <br>large scale domestic programs in the United States, <br>that they engaged in, <br>assassination operations, so forth and so on.<br>Well, what, the Reagan Administration did, <br>was to use, the National Security Council, <br>for the purpose of covert operations, <br>and that had never really been thought of before, frankly, <br>and so there was no over sight of it.<br>It was all, Executive branch, <br>it was all, you know, Presidential privilege, <br>and so that, there was very little publicity about it, <br>at least at first.\"<\/p>\r\n<p>AMY<br>\"So, that's a key point, <br>that it's not just a Shadow Government, <br>used for the future, <br>incase of, a total catastrophe, <br>but it's actually <br>a Shadow Government operating, right now.\"<\/p>\r\n<p>CHRIS<br>\"That's correct, and it must be, <br>and by that I mean that, <br>organizations of people, <br>don't sustain themselves if they just sit there, <br>and they just wait. <br>That simply isn't the way organizations thrive, <br>so, what happens is that their given a particular task, <br>and in this context, <br>that task, is <br>advancing the Administrations, so called War On Terrorism.<br>Then the next question comes: Well what exactly is that?<br>And the more closely one looks at the War On Terrorism, <br>the more disturbing it becomes, <br>for it's, actual and it's potential, abuses of American Citizens.\"<\/p>\r\n<p>AMY<br>\"Maybe the War On Terrorism, <br>is not the reason for, but the excuse for, the Shadow Government, to operate.\"<\/p>\r\n<p>CHRIS<br>\"Well, your making a good point, <br>but, I'm not sure, let's see, your making a good point, <br>but, what's going on here, is, that, <br>these words are being used to tie people in knots. <br>The War On Terrorism, is a code word, <br>for a very far [reaching] War on <br>decent, on disagreement, <br>on the, disintegration, or the, dis integration, if you will, <br>of the central Government, in Washington. <br>Despite, what, it often appears, <br>it's very difficult to run the Government at all, <br>and there's some question, frankly, <br>as to weather it can be said that <br>the President, or anybody else, <br>is running the Government. <br>So what these Administrations do, <br>is to try to, try to control this gigantic bureaucratic machine, <br>that holds the authorities, the power structure, together, <br>and they can't control that machine very well, <br>and the machine is, creaky, and it tends to break down. <br>To the extent, that they can, <br>these Administrations, rely on propaganda, <br>and if necessary, violence, to maintain that apparatus. <br>I think it's a very real question, <br>as to whether or not they can succeed <br>in maintaining that apparatus.\"<\/p>\r\n<p>AMY<br>\"Where talking to Christopher Simpson <br>he's associate professor of communications at American University, <br>author of a number of books.<br>What about the crack down on information, <br>how it's becoming increasingly difficult <br>under the Bush Administration, <br>with his Executive Orders, <br>cracking specifically down on, <br>Freedom Of Information Act requests, <br>talking about Presidential libraries, <br>now not releasing information, <br>to get information precisely about issues like these, <br>that were discussing, <br>and the Shadow Government, <br>that's operating today in, Virginia and Pennsylvania.\"<\/p>\r\n<p>CHRIS<br>\"I think the first key to doing that <br>is to use a bit of historical perspective. <br>For example <br>the National Security Directives <br>that lay out this basic plan for a Shadow Government, <br>it's procedures, it's step one step two step three, so forth, <br>these became public <br>in the wake of the Iran-Contra scandal, <br>some of them became public <br>in the Bush Administration, <br>some in the Clinton Administration, <br>(the first Bush Administration I meant, <br>and the Clinton Administration) <br>so when somebody starts talking about <br>a Shadow Government or Government In Waiting, <br>you can at least go back <br>and see what the policy documents <br>from the 1980's and before, had to say, <br>and that tends to give a person a framework <br>for understanding the little threads and slips of information <br>that squeeze their way out <br>despite the Administrations efforts to keep them secret.\"<\/p>\r\n<p>AMY<br>\"Hmm ... <br>you wrote the book Blowback <br>[:America's

House <\/p>\r\n<p>Un-American Activities Committee, <br>it contained the names of individuals <br>culled from newspaper clipping services <br>and Wackenhut's own private investigative business. <br>In 1977, <br>President Jimmy Carter signed Executive Order 12148 <br>which transformed the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency <br>into the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). <br>FEMA was to become responsible for coordinating Federal civil defense <br>and other emergency relief activities within the USA. <br>However, when Ronald Reagan took over the presidency in 1981, <br>he named his old California National Guard chief, retired General Louis <\/p>\r\n<p>Giuffrida, <br>as his emergency czar. <br>Giuffrida had a tainted image <br>as California's National Guard commander. <br>He drew up lists of 'militant Negroes' <br>who were to be rounded up in emergencies. <br>He designed 'Operation Cable Splicer,' <br>which kept track of political dissidents in California, <br>especially anti-Vietnam War protesters. <br>When Giuffrida took over the reins at FEMA, <br>he began to embark on similar projects. <br>FEMA began to store some 12,000 names <br>it had obtained from the FBI's domestic intelligence files. <br>FBI Director William Webster <br>was so outraged at this interference <br>in FBI matters <br>he forced FEMA to turn the list back to the FBI. <br>FEMA's surveillance lists <br>may have included at least 100,000 U.S. citizens <br>who were assumed to be potential threats to security. <br>These included the names of <br>environmentalists, survivalists, <br>and tax protesters <br>(in 2002, these are the new terrorists). <br>Wackenhut is reportedly a major contractor to FEMA. <br>With FEMA now running a shadow government, <br>there is a real possibility that <br>the 'subversive' lists for which <br>both FEMA and Wackenhut have an affinity are once again being dusted <\/p>\r\n<p>off and updated. <br>The USA PATRIOT Act, <br>drawn up in a frenzy <br>only matched in history <br>by the scrapping of the German Constitution <br>in the wake of the Reichstag Fire, <br>certainly criminalizes a range of what can be construed as <br>'political crimes' against The State. <br>The State's prison-industrial complex, <br>therefore, stands to benefit <br>from a whole new population of 'criminal.' <br>And what does Congress say <br>about Bush setting up a shadow government? They never knew about it! <br>According to The Washington Post, <br>Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle <br>said he 'had not been informed about the role, <br>location or even the existence of the shadow government.' <br>House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt <br>said he 'was unaware of the administration's move.' <br>Senator Robert Byrd, <br>the Senate President pro tempore, <br>third in line to succeed the President, <br>was also not informed.
