Main Core: A List Of Millions Of Americans That Will Be Subject To Detention During Martial Law

By Michael Snyder
June 10th, 2013

Are you on the list? Are you one of the millions of Americans that have been designated a threat to national security by the U.S. government? Will you be subject to detention when martial law is imposed during a major national emergency? As you will see below, there is actually a list that contains the names of at least 8 million Americans known as Main Core that the U.S. intelligence community has been compiling since the 1980s. A recent article on Washington’s Blog quoted a couple of old magazine articles that mentioned this program, and I was intrigued because I didn’t know what it was. So I decided to look into Main Core, and what I found out was absolutely stunning – especially in light of what Edward Snowden has just revealed to the world. It turns out that the U.S. government is not just gathering information on all of us. The truth is that the U.S. government has used this information to create a list of threats to national security that the government would potentially watch, question or even detain during a national crisis. If you have ever been publicly critical of the government, there is a very good chance that you are on that list.

The following is how Wikipedia describes Main Core…

Main Core is the code name of a database maintained since the 1980s by the federal government of the United States. Main Core contains personal and financial data of millions of U.S. citizens believed to be threats to national security. The data, which comes from the NSA, FBI, CIA, and other sources, is collected and stored without warrants or court orders. The database’s name derives from the fact that it contains “copies of the ‘main core’ or essence of each item of intelligence information on Americans produced by the FBI and the other agencies of the U.S. intelligence community.”

It was Christopher Ketchum of Radar Magazine that first reported on the existence of Main Core. At the time, the shocking information that he revealed did not get that much attention. That is quite a shame, because it should have sent shockwaves across the nation…

According to a senior government official who served with high-level security clearances in five administrations, “There exists a database of Americans, who, often for the slightest and most trivial reason, are considered unfriendly, and who, in a time of panic, might be incarcerated. The database can identify and locate perceived ‘enemies of the state’ almost instantaneously.” He and other sources tell Radar that the database is sometimes referred to by the code name Main Core. One knowledgeable source claims that 8 million Americans are now listed in Main Core as potentially suspect. In the event of a national emergency, these people could be subject to everything from heightened surveillance and tracking to direct questioning and possibly even detention.

Of course, federal law is somewhat vague as to what might constitute a “national emergency.” Executive orders issued over the last three decades define it as a “natural disaster, military attack, [or] technological or other emergency,” while Department of Defense documents include eventualities like “riots, acts of violence, insurrections, unlawful obstructions or assemblages, [and] disorder prejudicial to public law and order.” According to one news report, even “national opposition to U.S. military invasion abroad” could be a trigger.

So if that list contained 8 million names all the way back in 2008, how big might it be today?

Remember in the ‘Obamacare’ details, he wanted ANOTHER Army equal in size and strength to the U.S.Army to handle internal U.S. security where the regular Army wasn’t allowed to operate due to the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878.

I am also bothered by the word “CORE” - they are instituting in public schools what is called the “CORE CURRICULUM”...very troubling.!

How in heck would these 8 million + people be contained? Resistance would not be futile.

Why do you think homeland security (sounds so much better than the Sicherheitsdienst don't you think?) bought billions of round of ammo?

Who is going to round up all these millions and where exactly are they going to be held or executed?

I wonder if they have the gas chambers ready for us yet?

Bullets cost too much now.

Once they start killing us, I wonder how many Leftists will be bright enough to go “oops!” and realize that they could be next. I wonder how many others will be rubbing their hands and laughing in demented glee and not realize that they voted for the wrong people until their turn comes...

Do I paint too grim a picture?
Am I wearing a tinfoil hat?

I hope so.

However, I know history and I know what governments such as the kind that ours is becoming does to those that disagree with them.

There were 100 to 200 million were victims to the final solution at the hands of Socialism/Communism. History should teach us all to beware when a government becomes this fearful of its own people.

Isn't that the same as the recently published number of CCW license holders in the U.S.?

What about all of us who live and carry where a license isn't required?

Ask the German Jews.

Most of the guys in uniform will follow orders. Most of the civilians will to.

People won’t resist until they have no choice to, or they are dead.

This is the busiest ping list on FR now, and justly so.

You should post a link to the Twilight Zone theme music. That’s right were we are now.

When people say it cannot happen I cringe knowing public schools refuse to teach the history of socialism and communism.

If a rogue government were ever to take hold of the USA, and send patriotic citizens to camps, it would seem to make sense to go after every govt agency and take over the radio an TV stations to prevent more nonsense.

Also, find out how many honest police, sheriffs, and military there are against the rogue regime then join up with them.

Just a suggestion....

There are some here who call me a traitor for saying “I don’t want the State reading my mail.”

The GOP has decided to back this. Seems they and they Dem fellows want us all in the camps.

The police and the feebs.

where exactly are they going to be held or executed?

Plenty of old military bases and open country. Murder 8-10 million conservative "bitter clingers?" Not a biggie for the government or it's beloved JBTs.

Note my tag line has been the same since I started posting here
