Okay, I find this very strange. I did what this guy said to do on Google Earth and it did exactly like he said. I was never sure about these FEMA camps but this is a little scary.

2. It's in the news ...
http://www.pegasusnews.com/news/2009/feb/04/texas-black-film-fest-movie-review-renaissance-vil/
Renaissance Village is an immersive, first-person documentary exploring the lives of New Orleans residents relocated to a Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) camp outside Baker, Louisiana following Hurricane Katrina. At one point there were 3,000 people living in the camp, in travel trailers that were manufactured on a hurry-up schedule so folks would have roofs over their heads ASAP.

http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=12073
A new bill introduced in Congress authorizes the Department of Homeland Security to set up a network of FEMA camp facilities to be used to house U.S. citizens in the event of a national emergency.

The National Emergency Centers Act or HR 645 mandates the establishment of “national emergency centers” to be located on military installations for the purpose of to providing “temporary housing, medical, and humanitarian assistance to individuals and families dislocated due to an emergency or major disaster,” according to the bill.

The legislation also states that the camps will be used to “provide centralized locations to improve the coordination of preparedness, response, and recovery efforts of government, private, and not-for-profit entities and faith-based organizations”.

Ominously, the bill also states that the camps can be used to “meet other appropriate needs, as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security,” an open ended mandate which many fear could mean the forced detention of American citizens in the event of widespread rioting after a national emergency or total economic collapse.

3. Fort Polk, LA
Click on that one and it says,
This is a main base for UN troops & personnel, and a training center for the disarmament of America.

Now that sounds a little threatening to me. And can you imagine how much research somebody had to do to label every one of these camps for Google Earth? Frankly, this is creeping me out!

4. it should come as no surprise that our government loathes its citizens, and seeks to do them harm...
I think they've made that very clear over the years. Why people have such a difficult time believing this is what I find surprising. How many times do you have to be assaulted before you realize your attacker intends you harm?

8. 188 camps??? Don't be stupid ... something is being planned for.


There will be a resistance movement. There will be a revolution. The elites see the end but it may not work out as they expect once the populace catches on.. and they will ... slowly ..but they will.

9. We no longer have the facilities in which we housed Vietnamese immigrants

If you folks think we are going to end two wars without a large influx of emergency immigrants, then you don't get how this stuff works.

Nobody wants to be up front about it, but we are going to have several tens of thousands of Iraquis, at a minimum, in sudden need of relocation to the US in pretty short order.

After Vietnam, we used a lot of bases that are now closed.

That's what is called an "immigration emergency".

15. Why would they want to come here?
to such a hostile country? They are dispersed all across the middle-east, and many are returning to the rubble that is their country.

16. Were you around in '75?

Um, to the tens of thousands of Iraqis we've been employing, Iraq without us is one heckload more "hostile" than the US.

Gee, why would thousands of rural hill people from Laos want to move to Michigan?

They had to.

17. I've read that other countries..
have been accepting far more Iraqi's than the United States. And I'm sure those countries are not nearly as 'hostile' as the United States. I don't know what you mean when you say "Iraq without us is a heckload more hostile than the U.S."?
We've killed over a million Iraqi's, and destroyed their country. And of course there were sanctions during the Clinton years, and Desert Storm for Bush I. I'd call that pretty hostile, wouldn't you?

18. I don't know if you are being intentionally obtuse or not
Edited on Thu Feb-05-09 11:47 PM by jberryhill
Tens of thousands of Iraqis are working for us in Iraq.

They are the most hated people in Iraq. Iraqi translators working for us in Iraq wear disguises so they won't be recognized. For those tens of thousands of Iraqis, when we do not have a substantial presence, Iraq will be the most hostile place on the planet for them.

It is apparent you do not know why we took in tens of thousands of Vietnamese, Hmong, and others after that war.

They didn't come here for the climate, or out of appreciation for us bombing their country. They came here, as the Iraqis will, because we owe it to them for the work they did for us, and which renders their own country an unsafe place to stay.

No, you were not around in the 70's.

See if this helps:

http://www.google.com/search?q=%22immigration+emergency%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

The funding for a variety of facilities is related to the potential for "immigration emergency", which is a real one if we make a fast exit from Iraq. The nutjobs think an "immigration emergency" is rounding up illegal immigrants. No. An "immigration emergency" is having to deal with a rapid influx of immigrants. In our history, this happens under very specific circumstances. Guess the circumstances.

19. No..I am aware of the refugees we have taken..
Edited on Thu Feb-05-09 11:54 PM by stillcool
in from the countries around the world we have bombed the shit out of, or intervened in that resulted in death and destruction. My brother was in Vietnam. I was 12 when he came home. You may not be aware of the fact that Iraq is not Vietnam, and the United States today, is not the same country it was in the 70's. Oh yeah..those tens of thousands of people working for 'us' in Iraq, are from all over the globe.

20. Why the "us" in quotes?

I disagree with our presence in Iraq, but do not doubt that there are people there who are certainly employed by the United States of America. And they have families, so there is a multiple on top of that.

And, no, the native Iraqis who are working for us are Iraqis.

Invading Iraq was utter folly and stupidity. It is also folly in the long term for this country not to deal fairly and generously with foreign nationals who in good faith render services to this country, even when the administration changes. We have a long way to go in re-building our goodwill abroad and trust abroad. The only way to do that is to earn it by being trustworthy.

21. I apologize...
what I meant was that Global Corporations operating in Iraq hire people from all over the globe..and cheap! But what I am apologizing for is that your first post about Iraqi's in concentration camps antagonized me, and I have been responding in a reactionary manner. I have no doubt that there will be an influx of displaced Iraqi refugee's coming into this country. And I suppose that perhaps concentration camps are what the U.S. has in mind for them.

12. just thought id add
These google earth tags can be edited by anyone
Who edited them? is another story, but for the most part they would have to have intimate knowledge of both Canada and the united states.

13. This video has been on youtube since April 2006
I wonder if it's still in existence
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0P-hvPJPTi4

I saw it and the "1 million coffins" one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0P-hvPJPTi4 have a look at the more info section on the right for more details) a while ago and wasn't quite sure what to make of it all, to be honest.


Just did the google map thing and it's a bit spooky, someone needs to do a road trip and check these places out with a video camera and investigate what they actually are...

23. I picked out a couple of random ones and there is nothing there
Check out the blue Bubbles called:

"29 Palms Marine Base" in California

&

"Pershing County NV" in Nevada

- there's nothing there.


I don't have time to go through all of them but, even though there are clearly some existing military bases on there, it seems someone has spent a lot of time on Google Earth fabricating some kind of myth to spook everyone out.
