Furthermore -
anyone who has committed or POSES A RISK to commit (not guilty yet, just ...maybe...might do it...thinking about it...) violence in opposition to the economic stability / reconstruction efforts / war in Iraq.....are guilty.
Guilty meaning that "All your property belongs to us, signed - FedGov."
This has the appearance of targeting insurgents - but they would have to set foot on American soil FIRST.
Unlikely.
This can be used against any person in America - citizen or not.
This is authorized - in part - through the IEEP - a federal law regarding emergencies.
heres a tidbit -
"The IEEPA authorizes the president to declare the existence of an "unusual and extraordinary threat... to the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the United States" that originates "in whole or substantial part outside the United States." It further authorizes the president, after such a declaration, to block transactions and freeze assets to deal with the threat."
Sounds like Venezuela!! They are technically threatening our economy - in the eyes of Bush, I'm sure.
This could be used for that. Anyone who travels to a foreign state/country while they are on this 'list' during a very broad emergency, or spends money in that country, buys something, etc etc - is found guilty.
Example -
Traveling to Iraq prior to the invasion.
You would be guilty.
And if you read this: http://www.ustreas.gov/offices/enforcement/ofac/legal/statutes/ieepa.pdf ... the law referred to repeatedly by this executive order, the President now had EXTRA CONSTITUTIONAL POWERS to regulate and restrict foreign trade much as King George did under mercantilism!
