IAHF Webmaster: Anti Chip, Breaking News

IAHF List: You've got to hand it to Alex Jones of http://www.infowars.com for generating hard hitting articles like the one below that document the rapid plunge into a global police state in which biometric identifiers are being used to turn this into a totally Orewellian prison planet. Please read the article below and click through all the links to read the evidence supporting what he's saying. Jones has started an organization called "Americans Against Biometrics" and at the end of this article you can find out how to contact him for speaking engagements.

It may seem hopeless to stop this downward slide, but its not!! There is much we can do to halt the intrusive use of biometrics technology, (see Congressman Ron Paul's group - The Liberty Committee http://www.thelibertycommittee.org/ but first each of us must become well informed so that we can speak out against it, and totally resist it at every turn... just like Alex Jones does himself. He truly walks his talk. See the video at a link below of Alex getting arrested at a Dept. of Motor Vehicle Office in Texas for refusing to submit to a fingerprint scan while renewing his license. He tried to show them 8 pieces of identification, but they wouldn't accept any of it. He was arrested on a disorderly conduct charge when he got very angry and his people caught his speach on video. Please join me in watching it, and may God bless Alex Jones for his courage in spitting into the face of Big Brother. We must ALL resist Big Brother, just as Alex Jones is.

Please forward this to as many people as you possibly can. If we are to keep our dietary supplement laws from being harmonized to the grossly restrictive emerging Codex inernational standard, we must get into the habit of resisting and opposing Big Brother every step of the way. Access to vitamins is about to be crushed in the EU in January. Via Codex, BB thinks he's gonna "do us" next, but for every tyrannical action, there is an exact and opposite REACTION!

No surrender, no retreat! Please forward this, and may the resistance keep doubling in size.... with each passing day!!!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: AUGUST 16, 2001

FROM FACE SCAN CAMERAS TO THUMBSCANNERS:
BIOMETRIC TECHNOLOGY IS THE POLICE STATE SYSTEM FOR TOTAL CONTROL

Austin, TX ­ From fans at the Superbowl having their faces scanned to kids thumscanning to purchase lunches in the school cafeteria, Americans are being conditioned togive up their privacy and independence in exchange for the "safety" of biometrics technologies.http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,1282,42317,00.html Police departments across the country are debating the implimentation of invasive and unconstitutional Big Brother biometrics "for our safety and convenience," or, in the case of Ybor, Florida they have already instated and misused faces scanning cameras to victimize an innocent man. http://www.sptimes.com/News/080801/TampaBay/_They_made_me_feel_li.shtml

Across the US and the world, from Odessa, Texas to Beijing, China populations are being forced to accept the incredibly invasive technology of biometrics. Right out of the gates biometrics is being used only in Big Brother type surveillence monitoring and tracking efforts. Just imagine elementary school children in Pennsylvania who attend the Lakeside school district classes being forced to digitally fingerprint to obtain their lunches. We're talking about everybody ­ all the children ­ no cash allowed!

Two things are happening here: The children are being trained to accept a cashless society where all of their transactions are recorded and, more importantly, they are being put into Federal and State databases. In the past, only criminals were fingerprinted.

You see, we're all being treated as if we're guilty until proven innocent. In fact, Detective Todd who runs the biometric cameras in Tampa, Florida stated to the press, "I don't see the big problem with it if you don't have anything to hide." Yes, this was the mantra of Nazi Germany: "You are free to go ­ once we see your papers." Imagine what Hitler would have done with this Orwellian tool which is already being used in England to deny people to stores and sports arenas.

But it gets worse: Kroger and HEB foodstores in Texas are tearing out the "old-fashioned" checkout counters and replacing them with self-serve scanning systems. http://austin.bcentral.com/austin/stories/2001/03/05/daily29.html

Wells Fargo has implemented the face-scanning cameras at its banking centers in Dallas.http://www.knoxstudio.com/shns/story.cfm?pk=BIGBROTHER-02-01-01&cat=WW

But where are they getting the databases to match the faces and fingerprints with names and Social Security numbers? That's right: they got them from States' drivers' license facilities. In the past eight years, State DMV's in 38 States have been collecting digital photos, thumbprints and signatures. And now, Washington DC's Mayor has announced that all the school children will be face scanned, thumbprinted and then loaded into the drivers' license database. http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename=article&node=&contentId=A12001-2001Aug14

In one fell swoop they have put the cashless society surveillance grid in place, and they're training the children that cash will no longer get them a hamburger.

Americans Against Biometrics President Alex Jones http://www.infowars.com/alexjones.html saw the threat four years ago with the drivers' license databases. He staged a 100+ person protest at the State Police offices in Austin, Texas against the biometric requirement for a driver's license. Jones was arrested after demanding that his driver's license be renewed without submitting to a digital photo and thumbprint. He had brought eight forms of ID with him, but that was not enough. It would have been enough for the KGB, but not for the Texas Department of Public Safety. The frightening video of the arrest can be viewed online at http://www.infowars.com/biometrics.html.

Jones became very concerned four years ago when he began to see defense contractors like Lockheed-Martin running television ads equating thumscanning to buy and sell with America's pride in the space shuttle. Biometric propaganda is everywhere in commercials and on TV: IBM and American Express show people being scanned by lasers to get their groceries; the Sci-FI channel goes out to break and comes back into the show with someone biometrically thumscanning…

There are hundreds of other examples. We are all being conditioned to accept a highly centralized and dictatorial system. Is it any wonder that Red China is hastily buying up biometric technology?

Remember: right out of the gates, from the very start of this it has been mandatory to biometrically scan your body parts to get your driver's license ­ in turn to get a job and to have a bank account. Now every form of retail business and service company is deploying these systems and in hundreds of schools children are thumbscanning to get their food. We're not headed towards "1984," we're already in it.

Radio Talk Show Host Alex Jones is the President of Americans Against Biometrics and the foremost expert on the dangers of police state biometric technology. The time to act is now: get this information out to the public so they know what they're up against.
