The really chilling part is that -- right up-front, they say (below) -- these new concentration camps ("detention facilities" if you prefer the other spin) are "to support the rapid development of new programs" ... or "react to a national emergency". Just exactly what "new programs" are in "rapid development"? What kind of "national emergency" would require such concentration camps? Oh ... I see ... it's "in the event of an immigration emergency" ... in case of "an emergency influx of immigrants." (Gawd forbid we'd just promptly deport them, when a third of a billion dollars can be channeled to a corporate friend!) But no! -- it's not that kind of "national emergency". They want to these concentration camps to "help" in event of "a natural disaster". Oh, of course! Our government wants multi-use concentration camps -- to house quake or twister or flood victims, AND imprison fence-jumpers. And who better to build'n'operate them than our Vice-Chickenhawk's very own Halburton?! - --jim

(HAL : Halliburton Company said Tuesday it has been awarded a contingency contract from the Department of Homeland Security to supports its Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities in the event of an emergency. The maximum total value of the contract is $385 million and consists of a 1-year base period with four 1-year options. KBR held the previous ICE contract from 2000 through 2005. The contract, which is effective immediately, provides for establishing temporary detention and processing capabilities to expand existing ICE Detention and Removal Operations Program facilities in the event of an emergency influx of immigrants into the U.S., or to support the rapid development of new programs, KBR said. The contract may also provide migrant detention support to other government organizations in the event of an immigration emergency, as well as the development of a plan to react to a national emergency, such as a natural disaster, the company said.
