Dear JA,
It's all about controlling people. There is a hidden agenda behind all this and its obvious, in my opinion, that the real power isn't with governments but those faceless people who control the governments (financiers etc.). Terrorism and drugs are the tools being used. Haven't you noticed that because of the 'terrorist' threat we are now getting used to seeing armed police and military in places where we once didn't? We are being asked to give up a 'little' of our freedoms in order for the authorities to 'protect' us from these 'terrorists'. CCTV is rampant everywhere, certainly in the UK, and we are told that it is to combat crime. What better way of watching our movements, 1984 and all that! Its all about control and its being done by the gradual erosion of freedoms. As for the increasing use of computers, Internet, mobile phones and wireless technology nothing is private, hidden or secret anymore.
Any comment anyone?
Jack
