The issue is not whether the military will fight the citizenry as a group but whether the government will use the military as just another tool to control and pacify the country.

The Attorney General recently spoke out against the rule of law in favor presidential fiat. The drift toward dictatorship is unmistakable.

Gonzales: Judges unfit to rule on terror policy
Quote:
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales says federal judges are unqualified to make rulings affecting national security policy, ramping up his criticism of how they handle terrorism cases.

In remarks prepared for delivery Wednesday, Gonzales says judges generally should defer to the will of the president and Congress when deciding national security cases. He also raps jurists who “apply an activist philosophy that stretches the law to suit policy preferences.”
