[P2P-F] Fwd: "Senate Votes To Let Military Detain Americans Indefinitely"

[Dante-Gabryell Monson]

I ask myself,
if such "State of Exception" gets applied in a current "representative"
country,
can it be considered as "total war", and hence be illegal under the fourth
geneva convention ?

also notice another following excerpt when browsing :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Barbarossa#Germany_plans_the_invasion

"The Nazis often emphasized the Soviet regime's brutality when targeting
the Slavs with propaganda. German propaganda claimed the Red
Army<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Army> was
preparing to attack them, and their own invasion was thus presented as
pre-emptive <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-emptive_war>."
