Wesley Clark Suggests Internment Camps For ‘Radicalized’ Citizens

I've always liked Wes Clark. I interviewed him in 2005, when the topic of torture was new and fresh in our minds and he told me how disappointed he was in Dick Cheney. Our cell phone connection was horrible, but he called me back from the airport.

I say this because when I watched this segment I was as totally shocked as Digby was. I hope he rethinks his position after he listens to what he actually said. He's talking about bringing back WWII Japanese style internment camps to America, which has always been a blight on US history.

I suggest a rubber room and a healthy sized thorazine smoothie for Wesley Clark. It’s the perfect gift for the man who almost started WWIII.

That’s Captain McClusky......famous quotes “...when ya gotta go, ya gotta go” and “How’s the Italian food in this restaurant “

At some time, whoever this guy may be, he will be allowed to destroy and prosper for a short period of time - prior to being tossed into the Lake of Fire for all eternity.

Daniel 7:25 KJV

And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

You’ve gotta love the double-mindedness of the left.
On one hand they want, no they demand, that we assimilate, tolerate, accept, and embrace those different from us.

On the other hand, “So, if these people are radicalized and they don’t support the United States and they are disloyal to the United States, as a matter of principle fine. It’s their right and it’s our right and obligation to segregate them from the normal community for the duration of the conflict. And I think we’re going to have to increasingly get tough on this...”

So who ya going after Wes?

Muslims, Illegals, and Criminals who hate America (and you know they do)?

Or Americans (you know Right-Wing Crackers who hold their Bible and guns) who are loyal to their nation, but hate their gov’t?

You are a spawn of the devil!!!!

internment camps [have] always been a blight on US history. How can you catch a person who is unhappy or depressed before they become a lone wolf?

In most cases it's not a matter of "catching" someone.

I remember those days though 2,000 miles away from the West Coast we hardly were aware. But relocation may have saved lives -- Americans were not dismissive of Pearl Harbor as some of our liberal friends appear to be of 9/11.

I say again I believe that there is a difference between Muslims and Islamists.

So as the Islamists here in the U.S. continue their attacks there's going to be a point where public outrage takes over.

It is time to talk about the difference between relocate and intern. This need not be a huge concern if the Muslims would stand up by the millions as the Turks have done to protest Erdogan and his Islamists AK Party. But.. alas..

after December 7th, 1941 people of Japanese, German, and Italian descent, the majority were U.S. citizens, were relocated.

Those suspected of cooperating with the enemy were interned in separate camps Japanese I think mostly in northern California.

Those relocated were moved to places in several of the states. One was Jerome War Relocation Center in Arkansas. wiki source, picture of girl on way to school

Because of Japan’s successful surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, many . . . felt that the United State’s entire western coast was at risk of invasion. Communities and concentrated areas of people with Japanese ancestry were suddenly considered security risks even though no acts of sabotage or treason had taken place. [IIRC there was also concern for the safety of the Americans of Japanese descent.]

Jerome War Relocation Center in Arkansas

Even though many were constantly struggling to make a living in this new reality they had been forced into, the internees left a positive mark on the local community. They showed the locals new methods of crop irrigation, impressed teachers with their hard-work in the classroom, and created distinctive art pieces that reflected their Japanese heritage.

Many citizens left the relocation centers and joined the Military. How many Muslims (not Islamists) would do that?

It was war.. and we were just startled awake -- again Americans were not dismissive of Pearl Harbor as some of our liberal friends appear to be of 9/11. We never worried one iota about offending anyone.

The only blight on our history is the failure to make redress for those losing property and/or falsely accused.

In 1999, Blunt served as an armoured reconnaissance officer in the NATO deployment in Kosovo. Initially assigned to reconnaissance of the Republic of Macedonia-Yugoslavia border, Blunt and his unit worked ahead of the front lines directing forces and targeting Serb positions for the NATO bombing campaign. His unit was given the assignment of securing the Pristina International Airport in advance of the 30,000-strong peacekeeping force; however the Russian army had moved in and taken control of the airport before his unit’s arrival. American NATO commander Wesley Clark ordered that Blunt’s unit forcibly take the airport from the Russian contingent. However, after Blunt queried the order, Mike Jackson, Blunt’s superior officer, and Blunt himself refused to comply fearing greater consequences, with Jackson stating that they were “not going to start the Third World War” for Clark.[18][19][20] The airport would eventually be shared peacefully by Blunt’s unit and the Russians.

Let’s start with everybody named Mohammed, everybody from Somalia, anyone who has traveled to Yemen, Qatar, Iran, Syria, Gaza, etc. That’s a start.

[arthurus]

No camps. Just deport ALL Moslems of whatever provenance.

[WilliamofCarmichael]

It's that three letter word "jobs" again. That's all that's needed.

"U.S. State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said the Islamic State will be defeated through better job opportunities."

[arthurus]

“They” lost a girlfriend? Are we pushing for polyandry here? I suppose that’s coming, too.

[Lazamataz]

Hell, this guy is so liberal, HE'S NOT TALKING ABOUT MUSLIMS.

HE'S TALKING ABOUT US.

[nathanbedford]

Wesley:

Would it ever occur to you liberals that it might be better to control immigration than to set up gulags?

Here is a chance for another maxim: unrestrained, unrestricted immigration in an age of terrorism inevitably leads to gulags.

[rbg81]

Why do I think such camps would soon be used to hold: Global Warming Deniers, opponents of Gay marriage, Islamophobes, and those who oppose illegal immigration? Because they would.

Pretty soon, the guards of such camps would be the Jihadis they were originally supposed to hold.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

This common sense approach will never prevail unfortunately.

[rsobin]

Nah,we do not have to do all that. We would only have to go to their homelands and kill their entire extended family. Just a few times will do.

[Georgia Girl 2]

This from the guy who Stormin Norman had to send home early from the Bosnian war for incompetence and inability to play with others.

We need to deport all Muslims and let no more in the country. Close down the Mosques and get back to being Americans.

[MrB]

Did everyone hear that the Aurora Co theater shooter has “converted to Islam to justify his act”?

[PIF]

Westly the Weasel, aka the Butch of Belgrade, was also the last US general to deliberately target and kill civilians. This was OK because the civilians were Christians, who were defending themselves against the invading musselman SS Albanian troops.

[ETL]

Where’s the projectile barf alert? Did you forget? Alan Comes is that little left-wing wussy that co-hosted a show with Sean Hannity on FoxNews. Wesley Clark is a far left nut case.

[I want the USA back]

He obviously does not mean that he would intern ROP
members, just Christians.
