Does that RFID have three sixes?
Re “They’re tracking you” by Devanie Angel (SN&R Feature story, December 15):
Big business thinks Radio Frequency Identification tags are great, but privacy-rights advocates fear the tiny chips will invite corporations and the government into our personal lives

American fascism is the elite body guard for Amerikan corporate capitalism and utilizes all high-tech forms of civilian surveillance in order to preserve the present unjust social order and its system of profits no matter what the cost of human misery and suffering.

Under a fascist order that has secret European prisons, murders innocent prisoners by DNA mistake and refuses to relate to the American people’s basic survival needs, who can trust the abuse of such high-tech devices? The mark of the beast is already here now. In fact, we could be wearing it and not even know it!

I figure you got a lot of responses to this article in between folks going and buying their RFID-laden Xmas gifts!

Merry Christmas and happy New Year’s! Jesus Christ is the reason for the season!

It's a war of terror, not on terror

Re “Support the war!” by Jeffrey M. Barker (SN&R Feature story, December 8):

The war on terror has been good for Move America Forward. It’s brought the conservative activist group notoriety, cash and ratings.

If you must devote five pages to a public-relations outfit with a tiny following that is daring to support--and profit from--an officially sanctioned war, at least don’t call the war in Iraq the “war on terror.”

The war on Iraq is a war of terror against the people of a country that had no weapons of mass destruction; no connection to 9/11; who had no air force; who were not any kind of threat to the United States; who must wonder every morning of their lives what they’ve done to live in the hell we’ve created in their country, why their children are dead or deformed from depleted uranium or blown up by some of the 700,000 tons of bombs we’ve dropped on Iraqi towns, why there’s still no safe drinking water--no safe anything.

The administration calls its illegal and immoral war on Iraq a “war on terror,” but almost all military experts now admit that it’s creating more terrorists. A true “war on terror” would go after the true perpetrators of 9/11, and before you say who you think they are, check out David Ray Griffin’s book, The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and Distortions.
