Naomi Wolf; The End of America: Tipping Point, Now! Pt3

The End of America: Tipping Point, Now!

A Twelve Part DocuTUBEmentary expanding the arguments made by Naomi Wolf's book The End of America: Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot.

Originally I set out to spice up the video portion of her October 2007 speech, but found that current events, on a daily basis, kept fortifying her thesis and I eventually began adding more and more of these current event "Tipping Points".

Even today her prediction of the end of America comes true with every new article I read. See for yourself. Watch this video, read her book, and keep reading the news (reddit.com suggested site).

Naomi explains that there are 10 steps that all democracies go through on their way to dictatorship. Same steps weather it's from Mussolini, Hitler, Pinochet, or Stalin, and all 10 steps are underway in America.

Part 1 [4:10]: Introduction to the book & blueprint.

Part2 [5:56]: Teaching the blueprint at The School for the Americas.
Step #1 -- Invoke a terrorizing internal/external threat (and hype it).

Part3 [6:44]: Words/Imagery repeated, unsupported evidence, and fake documents.
Step #2 -- Create a prison system outside the rule of law where torture takes place.

Part4 [5:51]: Broaden definitions to use Torture and Military Tribunal on citizens.
Democracy closes in successive tipping points, faster and faster.

Part5 [4:46]: Courts side in favor of police who enact un-needed violence in the name of safety to crack down on liberties. Example; Florida Taser incident.

Part6 [8:42] Use state legislature to put pressure on academics. A Goebbels tactics which entice citizens and media to censor themselves. [Moyers Journal]
Step #3 -- Create a paramilitary force (private contractors) not answerable to citizens.
Armed agents humiliate force ordinary citizens to do disgusting or humiliating things.

Part7 [8:04] Civilian contractors not held to military code of justice and immune from civil.
Paramilitary has contracted to police US cities. President has authority to declare martial law; congress cannot review the action for six months.
Step #4 -- Create surveillance systems aimed at non-criminal ordinary citizens.

Part8 [5:44] Military Industrial Complex; 1/3 of our GDP is private sector defense industries. When we lose an enemy, the US elites lose their jobs. So we arm terrorists and dictators to ensure we'll have a future enemy. Even bigger profits come if you can make an enemy out of everyone; 1,000,000 on the terror watch list. (www.aclu.org/watchlist/)

Part9 [9:36] Watch-list vs. McCarthy "Red List". The list serves no security function but makes life (jobs and travel) inconvenient for dissidents.
Step #5 -- Arbitrarily Detain and release Prisoners, SPOT and TSA detain without cause. US Private Prison industry lobbies for more prisoners and tough crime sentencing.
Prison Industrial Complex gearing up to hold millions more despite US holding world record in prison population.

Part10 [7:34] Step #6 Infiltrate Citizen Groups. COINTELPRO and other FBI programs aimed at discrediting political rivals by infiltrating groups and enacting violence in order to justify crackdowns.
False Flag attacks by private contractors in Iraq to instigate violence.
Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007 information.

Part11 [9:24] Step #7 Target Key individuals. High profile lawyers, media, press, performers, academics who stand up have their careers derailed.
Step #8 Restrict the press; reporters are prosecuted for exposing corruption and illegal activity in the White house. Media agencies begin to censor themselves.
Definition of Terrorist begins to expand.
"Operation Sudden Impact" renames crimes as terrorism to suspend 4th amendment rights.
Step #9 Treat dissenters as traitors.
Step #10 Suspend the Rule of Law/Declare Marshal Law.

Part12 [9:05] It takes a democracy movement to save democracy. Millions of people must rise up and restore the rule of law- The final tipping points come faster and faster and there is a point where democracy can not heal itself. Prosecute the administration for war crimes and treason. Stand together and defeat apathy.

oh yeah!!! bush, bush, bush, bush, it was all his fault, whatever lady!! do not compare us to these countries; this government has never killed his citizens, just like these regimes did.

[WizardTom2]

We marched Asians in internment camps, they were citizens in mass arrest without trial.

We still have slaves, we use private prison labors at .50 cents an hour ashore and Chinese or third world impoverished people who would do ANY amount of work for enough money to buy rice.

US patented fuel system ran Nazi Airforce, US Patented IBM computers and US engineers were working in partnership with Hitler recording census information used to select which citizens to detain and gas

[WizardTom2]

Only reason we "stayed out" of WWII for so long was not because it "was not our fight"... it was because our CORPORATIONS would lose their contract if we declared war on Germany; trading with the enemy act.

Prescott Bush chaired a bank that was helping German investments during the war; we couldn't legally enter because of Geneva convention laws... we were making SHIT BALLS TONS of capital helping out both sides of the war... the only reason we stayed out so long then marched in to victory.

she is hot

[kathleen2012]

It's ironic with all this "home-land" security that when I've gone the airport I see an old white woman being searched on the side (purse contents torn apart) while men wtih turbans walk through with an attitude and never get stopped once! Our government is the terrorist..it's really that simple. Our gov wants to harm us all. We need to see that and do something about it.. even if we have to fight, we need to stand up TO our gov!

Naomi Wolf is such a sheltered and pampered Jewish Princess!

[jscottupton]

This woman makes stuff up as she goes along. She knows NOTHING about economics.

[jpp3g]

@jpp3g

Does anybody realize what that means?!?!?! It was very obvious faulty intel which was propagandized to manufacture the consent of the public!! Absolutely outrageous. And did we get a full, thorough on investigation by the media... no fucking way. And when the Niger yellowcake story was publicly exposed by the actual person, CIA agent Joe Wilson, who collected the intel that contradicted what Cheney said, Libby outed his undercover CIA wife Valerie Plame! Bush was pretty damn bad, huh lol

[jpp3g]

Does anybody know about the Rendon Group, who working as a quasi intelligence branch, that was officially hired to analyze the American sentiments of various Middle Eastern countries? Well, they created the Iraq National Congress for this work, and this is where the bullshit story of mobile chemical and biological weapons facilities came from. Their source was Chalabi!!! The head of INC was reporting directly to the head of the Vice Presidents staff, Scooter Libby! All this intel was bullshit!!!

[montageboy97]

so what if usa tortures the terrorist, they would kill our soldiers without thinking twice about it

[gerrilea1]

@charlesvan13 Wow, you don't know shit...

[charlesvan13]

This woman claimed in a Huffington post piece that the government was tapping her bank accounts.

What a nut.

If fascism is some kind of real threat then we already experienced under Clinton.

[WizardTom2]

There is also the possibility your torturing someone who does not HAVE the information you want. But through the interrogation he learns what your trying to hear so you just "confess" that to stop the torture.

That is how we gained the Iraq / Al Queda link that never existed yet while interrogating through tortured testimony they were able to get a verification. No physical evedence whatsoever linked them, just the word of a man who was in torture.

[wowthungsten]

You don't understand the dynamic here. They will do that -anyway- if they are so inclined. Someone is in their power,, they will do whatever they please, they can't be stopped.

I couldn't withstand torture, nobody does. You either break or you die. If they're going to 'extract' a confession out of you, just confess right away, you're going to give them what they want anyway, the only difference is how much you're hurting at the other end. But: I'd confess to everything, they couldn't stop me.
