The open announcement of a program on behalf of the federal government that is recruiting clergy to aid the authorities in “quelling dissent,” gun confiscation and forced relocation in the event of martial law has many worried that the current economic plunge could be the precursor for a state of emergency in America.

A KSLA 12 news report out of Louisiana confirmed a story we originally broke last year – that religious leaders are being enrolled into a federal program that trains them how to “quell dissent” and make people obey the government in the aftermath of a declaration of martial law following a mass casualty terror attack or a natural disaster.

Watch the video.

A convergence of events logically leads to a conclusion that only the most naive observer would deny – that an upcoming crisis may be in the pipeline that will signal the green light for such provisions to be enacted. World stock markets continued to plunge today despite billions in liquidity being pumped into the system by governments in Europe, Asia and the U.S.

With a prolonged slump leading to fears of a recession on the horizon, many worry that a run on the banks could cause chaos on American streets and give the government an excuse to enact sate of emergency procedures that Bush recently codified into law with his Presidential Decision Directive of May 9th.

Others see the designation of Iran’s military wing as a terrorist organization by the White House as an ominous indication that a military strike is being finalized, as five U.S. aircraft carriers circulate the Persian Gulf.

An attack on Iran could also be preceded by a terror attack on U.S. soil which would lead to the suspension of the U.S. constitution and the implementation of a military form of government, as General Tommy Franks warned of in November 2003.

Readers reacted with horror to the confirmation of the martial law plan and even those that routinely dismiss our stories as overhyped or exaggerated expressed their deep concern.

“I’ll be the 1st to admit I’m not big on conspiracy theories but after seeing that news report, I’m scared juiceless,” commented one.

“I am a liberal who owns many many guns, and this is exactly why,” remarked another.
