Group: Terrorism not focus of Homeland Security
"WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Claims of terrorism represented less than 0.01 percent of charges filed in recent years in immigration courts by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, according to a report issued Sunday by an independent research group.
This comes despite the fact the Bush administration has repeatedly asserted that fighting terrorism is the central mission of DHS.
The Transactional Records Action Clearinghouse said it analyzed millions of previously undisclosed records obtained from the immigration courts under the Freedom of Information Act.
Of the 814,073 people charged by DHS in immigration courts during the past three years, 12 faced charges of terrorism, TRAC said.
Those 12 cases represent 0.0015 percent of the total number of cases filed.
"The DHS claims it is focused on terrorism. Well that's just not true," said David Burnham, a TRAC spokesman. "Either there's no terrorism, or they're terrible at catching them. Either way it's bad for all of us."
Can it be more plain than that? The intent of the 'Department of Homeland Security' is to provide the fascists with internal political security at home, which enables it to plunder the world at will.
Along with the patriot act and Bush's emergency dictatorial signing statement we live in a de facto military dictatorship. This is the face of fascism.

Don't forget also that the DHS represents a channel for funds from the fascist feds to whoever promises to kiss their stinking asses. But we know that.
