   Committees formed already

   IAO Mission: The DARPA Information Awareness Office (IAO) will imagine, develop, apply, integrate, demonstrate and transition information technologies, components and prototype, closed-loop, information systems that will counter asymmetric threats by achieving total information awareness useful for preemption; national security warning; and national security decision making.
   
   Can't you just imagine the score of meetings it took just to get this put together?

   Poindexter

   In his first interview since he started the "information awareness" program, Poindexter, who figured prominently in the Iran-contra scandal more than a decade ago...

   "Figured prominently" is an understatement. He was Ollie's boss and was convicted. His conviction was overturned on the basiss that he was granted immunity for his testimony to Congress (in which he admitted to everything that he had been convicted of).

   Ollie's other plans during Iran-Contra were to turn FEMA (who are supposed to help clean up after natural disasters) into an enforcement arm for Martial Law in case anti-Contra protestors got in the way.

   Re: Poindexter

   I kept a newspaper article from that time that spelled out the new changes in martial law to include domestic unrest over national/foreign policy(peaceful demonstrations)..just to name one there were more..like making all county seats command posts for National Guard during martial law.. the article went on to say that it wasn't known whether or not Reagan signed it-what do you think he did? I think he signed it of course. These changes to declaring martial law were put on Reagan's desk by Ollie North..Also we have been under maritime law for decades now and remain so look at our flags they all have the yellow tassle fringe on them in all official offices..that is the flag of maritime law..which means we are not under constitutional protections and haven't been for decades..and especially now should it be invoked..hmmmm
