US planning to recruit one in 24 Americans as citizen spies
The Bush Administration aims to recruit millions of
United States citizens as domestic informants in a
program likely to alarm civil liberties groups.
The Terrorism Information and Prevention System, or
TIPS, means the US will have a higher percentage of
citizen informants than the former East Germany
through the infamous Stasi secret police. The
program would use a minimum of 4 per cent of
Americans to report "suspicious activity".
Civil liberties groups have already warned that, with
the passage earlier this year of the Patriot Act,
there is potential for abusive, large-scale
investigations of US citizens.
As with the Patriot Act, TIPS is being pursued as
part of the so-called war against terrorism. It is
a Department of Justice project...

and not only that:
http://www.sunshine-project.org/publications/pr010702.html
"The Advantages and Limitations of Calmatives for
Use as a
Non-Lethal Technique, a 49 page report obtained last
week by the Sunshine Project under US information
freedom law, has revealed a shocking Pentagon program
that
is researching psychopharmacological
weapons. Based on "extensive review conducted
on the
medical literature and new developments in the
pharmaceutical industry", the report concludes
that "the development and use of [psychopharmacological
weapons] is achievable and desirable." These mind-altering
weapons violate international
agreements on chemical and biological warfare as
well
as human rights. Some of the techniques discussed in
the
report have already been used by the US
in the "War on Terrorism"."
etc. etc.

Operation TIPS - the Terrorism Information and Prevention
System - will be a nationwide
program giving millions of American
truckers, letter carriers, train conductors, ship captains,
utility employees, and others a formal
way to report suspicious terrorist activity. Operation
TIPS, a project of the U.S. Department
of
Justice, will begin as a pilot program in 10 cities

"Everywhere in America, a concerned worker can
call a
toll-free number and be connected directly to a hotline
routing calls to the proper law enforcement agency or
other
responder organizations when appropriate."
Thank GOD no one can do that NOW.
