Alex Jones has received a secret report distributed by the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) entitled The Modern Militia Movement and dated February 20, 2009. A footer on the document indicates it is unclassified but law enforcement sensitive, in other words not for public consumption. A copy of the report was sent to Jones by an anonymous Missouri police officer. <\/p>\n
The MIAC report specifically describes supporters of presidential candidates Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, and Bob Barr as militia influenced terrorists and instructs the Missouri police to be on the lookout for supporters displaying bumper stickers and other paraphernalia associated with the Constitutional, Campaign for Liberty, and Libertarian parties. <\/p>\n
Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) provides a public safety partnership consisting of local, state and federal agencies, as well as the public sector and private entities that will collect, evaluate, analyze, and disseminate information and intelligence to the agencies tasked with Homeland Security responsibilities in a timely, effective, and secure manner, explains the MIAC website. MIAC is the mechanism to collect incident reports of suspicious activities to be evaluated and analyzed in an effort to identify potential trends or patterns of terrorist or criminal operations within the state of Missouri. MIAC will also function as a vehicle for two-way communication between federal, state and local law enforcement community within our region. <\/p>\n
MIAC is part of the federal fusion effort now underway around the country. As of February 2009, there were 58 fusion centers around the country. The Department has deployed 31 officers as of December 2008 and plans to have 70 professionals deployed by the end of 2009. The Department has provided more than $254 million from FY 2004-2007 to state and local governments to support the centers, explains the Department of Homeland Security on its website. Missouri is mentioned as a participant in this federal intelligence effort. <\/p>\n
Last month, the ACLU issued a news release highlighting the activity of a fusion center in Texas as the latest example of inappropriate police intelligence operations targeting political, religious and social activists for investigation, in particular Muslim civil rights organizations and anti-war protest groups. <\/p>\n
The MIAC report does not concentrate on Muslim terrorists, but rather on the so-called militia movement and conflates it with supporters of Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, Bob Barr, the so-called patriot movement and other political activist organizations opposed to the North American Union and the New World Order. The MIAC document is a classic guilt by association effort designed to demonize legitimate political activity that stands in opposition to the New World Order and its newly enshrined front man, Barack Obama. <\/p>\n
In September of 2008, Missouri sheriffs and prosecutors organized truth squads to intimidate people opposed to Obama and threatened to arrest and prosecute anybody who ran misleading television ads. Missouri governor Matt Blunt eventually denounced the use of police state tactics on the part of the Obama-Biden campaign. <\/p>\n
MIAC claims members of a rightwing militia movement organized in the 1990s generally in response to the Oklahoma City bombing and the events at Waco continuously exploit world events in order to increase participation in their movements. Due to the current economical and political situation, a lush environment for militia activity has been created and supposedly exploited by constitutionalists and white supremacists, the latter an oft-employed canard used to demonize activists as dangerous and potentially violent lunatics. <\/p>\n
MIAC notes many of the political issues cited by the so-called patriot movement the Ammunition Accountability Act, the impending economic collapse of the government, the possibility of a constitutional convention, the North American Union, Obamas Universal Service Program, and the implementation of RFID, issues that are not limited to the patriot movement but are shared by a wide array of political activists. <\/p>\n
