2012 London Olympics: Police State Opening
Ceremony
A combination of leaked documents and public policy debate has recently
revealed that the British government is preparing to use the 2012
Olympic games in London as a showcase for multiple big brother police
state operations and technologies.
The London
Telegraph reported on Sunday that a memo, entitled No 10 Policy
Working Group on Security, Crime and Justice, Technological Advances,
asks: "To what extent should the expectation of liberty be
eroded by legitimate intrusions in the interests of security of
the wider public?"
The document, drawn up by officials at the Home Office
and sent to 10 Downing Street, explores ways of winning over public
opinion to intrusive and liberty crushing methods of policing and
surveillance and concludes: "Increasing [public] support could
be possible through the piloting of certain approaches in high-profile
ways such as the London Olympics."
This is key as it shows that the overall agenda is
to make people accept big brother per se, not to make them accept
it in the short term to ensure security at the Olympic games. Once
again it is clear that security is not the issue, the real agenda
is control.
Some of the methods advanced by the memo include empowering
police to scan postal packages, advancing CCTV systems to monitor
individuals, tracking people's movements via the electronic Oyster
travel card system already in use in London and a massive extension
of the national DNA database.
The Telegraph reports:
It suggests that police will make much greater
use of a technique known as "familial DNA" where a suspect
whose details are not on the database can be traced through a
family member whose details are already recorded. The memo states:
"Records could be trawled more routinely to identify familial
connections to crime scenes, providing a starting point to investigations
through a family member that is on the database to a suspect that
is not, for example."
So now the DNA of Brits doesn't even have to be on the database
for their details to be readily available to police. You literally
cannot escape the system.
This is without even debating the matter that the majority of the
three
million people on the DNA database are not criminals but are
merely citizens who have had their DNA taken by police in routine
investigations of crime scenes. Hundreds of thousands of those people
are children
aged between 10 and 18. Of those on the database that were arrested,
a sizable number have not been charged with crimes.
The DNA database cannot be viewed seriously as a crime fighting
or security tool because the vast majority of people on it are not
criminals. Again, the agenda is cataloguing and control, treating
people like cattle. Without ANY parliamentary debate or legislation,
every person in this country is being targeted for inclusion from
birth.
Furthermore, it is again clear that such moves have nothing to
do with increasing security for the Olympic games. How is it that
a British national DNA database is going to keep us secure from
any foreign visitors who wish to carry out acts of crime or terror
during the global spectacle of the Olympics?
Last November the London Times reported that authorities were also
considering the 2012 Olympics as a cover for the introduction of
high-powered
microphones attached to CCTV cameras.
The microphones, which are already in use in the Netherlands,
can pick up "aggressive tones" on the basis of 12 factors,
including decibel level, pitch and the speed at which words are
spoken. They are so advanced that background noise is filtered out,
enabling the camera to focus on specific conversations in public
places.
Again how are such devices going to prevent any major security
threats? What are they going to do, monitor conversations and despatch
emergency squads of police if it looks like it might turn nasty?
Once again this about having total information awareness, the ability
to monitor everyone, anywhere, all the time. It's about getting
used to being controlled and eliminating any backlash towards living
under total surveillance. Note how the primary function of the cameras
is to detect aggression or dissent.
In addition to simply watching and scanning us 24/7 with the ability
to positively identify who we are, which many now consider perfectly
normal, the latest technology is being used to monitor and manipulate
our behaviour, all under the banner of keeping us safe.

The Olympic excuse for big brother is here, there
and everywhere. Today's London Telegraph report's that, in addition
to the leaked memo, police are debating whether to draft in troops
to help with the policing of the event.
And perhaps even worse still the police are also seriously
considering allowing
armed foreign police to patrol the streets of London during
the games.
The scenario, outlined by one of Scotland Yard’s
most senior officers, would have fully equipped FBI and Israeli
police strolling around London operating under the British law of
“reasonable force.”
We saw all too clearly what is considered to be reasonable
force under British law in the summer of 2005 when an innocent man
was shot nine times in the head by firearms officers, despite the
fact that their superiors knew categorically that he was not a threat
to national security.
Will Londoners have to face the same panic levels
of security, but this time with Israeli gunmen as their law enforcers?
“I don’t think we should shy away from
that. In a global environment, a capital city," Scotland Yard
officer Tarique Ghaffur said. "International policing is a
global family.”
Indeed it is viewed this way. There has recently been a major movement
within the EU to impose a radical law and order package that would
allow armed police to operate
with impunity outside their home countries, roaming unrestricted
across European borders.
Unless the British public stands up for their rights and demands
that no more of their liberties be eroded WITHOUT DEBATE, the 2012
Olympic games will represent the opening ceremony of the all conquering
and all controlling police state that is being exported all over
the western world in the name of keeping us safe.
I seem to remember reading somewhere else how the Olympics
was previously used as a tool to promote and globally export a "tolerable"
form of fascism. Look how that turned out in the end. So now
we see, it can happen here.
