Let the Truth of 9/11 be Known: Is Martial Law in the U.S. Just Right Around the Corner?

I have read some frightening things about implementing martial law in the U.S. and it sounds like it is more reality than fiction.

Take the new military exercise - Vigilant Shield 08 - which begins October 15th. The official release has a tone to it that leaves you wondering if it isn't just a prep for martial law. Could our own sons, daughters, husbands, wives, mothers and fathers turn their weapons on us?
There's also the National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive, aka NATIONAL SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL DIRECTIVE/NSPD 51, aka HOMELAND SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL DIRECTIVE/HSPD-20, which was signed into law by George W. Bush in May 2007. This new directive didn't get much press but it certainly sounds like George W. Bush will make himself dictator in event of any catastrophe. He already acts like one so why not be one...
The John Warner National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007 AKA H.R. 5122 essentially over-ruled or re-wrote other policies and Section 1076 allows the President to declare an emergency and deploy federal troops to take over the National Guard and local police. Two acts that prevented a President from performing this on a whim, the Insurrection Act and the Posse Comitatus Act, were basically eliminated with this new act.
The purchase of light and super light aircraft, such as those built by Adam Aircraft and changes in FAA rules and regulations as regards these aircraft. Dick Cheney visited Adam Aircraft in 04 and is in favor of the lighter craft as they are easier to maneuver when enforcing martial law.
The latest military stand down on Sept 14th in which all aircraft were grounded. It was done, supposedly, due to the B52/nuclear warhead incident that occurred a couple of weeks ago but it is highly unusual that ALL aircraft and personnel are grounded for a day when it was a very specific incident.
George W. Bushs' own disdain and disrespect for the U.S. Constitution. He was quoted as saying that it was "just a god damned piece of paper."
The discussion of setting up fences and walls around our borders is just a guise to move forward with a unified North American Union (U.S., Canada and Mexico). The ultimate goal is the expansion of I-35 from Canada through the U.S. to the ports of Mexico, often referred to as the NAFTA "Superhighway."
Kellogg Brown & Roots’ (a subsidiary of Halburton) award of a $385 million over a five-year term, consisting of a one-year based period and four one-year options, contract to establish detention facilities in the U.S. under the guise of “an emergency influx of immigrants or in the event of a natural disaster, the contractor could be tasked with providing housing for ICE personnel performing law enforcement functions in support of reliefefforts.” KB&R is working jointly with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcements’ Detention and Removal Operations (DRO), of which ICE DRO was established in 2003 as “the largest investigative arm of the Department of Homeland Security.”
Changes to a federal statute in which the Attorney General can make decisions in regards to prisoners of the U.S.
The “rapid, action revision” change to AR 210-35 Civilian Inmate Labor Program as governed by the U.S. Army. This has ominous overtones as it discusses the guidelines on how civilian prisoners will be treated on U.S. Army bases within the U.S. itself.

Martial law would be devastating and I don't think that most people have any idea what it would mean...

It means that the USG can come into your home - you will have no privacy. You will not be entitled to it anymore.
It means that the USG will confiscate any weapons that you have because you can't carry them any more - it will not be your right.
It means you will lose your U.S. Constitutional rights.
It means that the draft will be imposed of a nature that when your children reach the age of 18 they will be conscripted into military service.
It means that percentage rates on outstanding loans and credit cards could jump to outrageous interest rates.
It means that businesses (your job!) could force you to work for less/no money and take away your benefits. They will do this because it will be "best" for the country...

I have read that Cheney has said "when martial law is imposed" but I didn't save the article and can no longer locate it. Using "when" vs. "if" is highly significant and it concerns and frightens me. We are on a most terrible path...

I think we need to be very vigilant. Something is amiss... Even George W. Bushs' conceding to bring troops home from Iraq all of a sudden is worrying. I think there is more to it than what the public is seeing or what we are being told...

Further, consider that the next "attack" on America may not be a terrorist attack or a bomb at all - it may very well be a flu outbreak, such as avian flu (H5N1). This has been one of Bushs' favorite topics so it is not unlikely that this would be the ammo that would bring about martial law and his much desired position as dictator of this country. Conservative estimates are that, if H5N1 crosses over into the human population, as many as 55% of infected people would die (http://www.pandemicflu.gov/general/).

Photos of the signing of H.R. 5122 Why is Cheney so jolly? Is he happy because they got another one past the American public under the guise of terrorism protectionism?
