Fmr Gen. Wesley Clark: Bring Back Internment Camps

Clark said that during World War II, “if someone supported Nazi Germany at the expense of the United States, we didn’t say that was freedom of speech, we put him in a camp, they were prisoners of war.”

“If these people are radicalized and they don’t support the United States and they are disloyal to the United States as a matter of principle, fine. It’s their right and it’s our right and obligation to segregate them from the normal community for the duration of the conflict.”

Aside from the inherent problems in criminalizing people for their beliefs, Clark’s proposal (which his MSNBC interlocutor did not challenge him on) also appears to be based on the concept of targeting people for government scrutiny who are not even “radicalized,” but who the government decides may be subject to radicalization in the future.

“We have got to identify the people who are most likely to be radicalized. We’ve got to cut this off at the beginning,” Clark said. “I do think on a national policy level we need to look at what self-radicalization means because we are at war with this group of terrorists.” And he added that “not only the United States but our allied nations like Britain, Germany and France are going to have to look at their domestic law procedures.”

Gen. Wesley Clark ran for President as a Democrat in 2004.

Who decides who is radicalized and what definition or criteria are they using?

“If these people are radicalized and they don’t support the United States and they are disloyal to the United States as a matter of principle, fine. It’s their right and it’s our right and obligation to segregate them from the normal community for the duration of the conflict.”

So if, in the future, supporting the US violates our faith as Christians, and we're required to be disloyal as a matter of faith...Gen Clark is saying we should be segregated and put away from the "normal" community.

Could you imagine? And some Apostolics won't willingly fellowship with other Apostolics in the same town!

I think there was another group that had these things in mind?
