1. Evidence has shown the paucity of results of the environmental movement. In fact, often, the result is the death and destruction of their areas over which they institute domain. One would think that there would be a halt, or at least pause, in such efforts. Alas, not so.
2. While there are efforts supposedly aimed at addressing terrorism, a careful reading of certain bills will reveal that they can be used by environmentalists to knee-cap opponents.
The recent passage of the National Defense Authorization Act (Senate Bill 1867), otherwise known as the Indefinite Detention Bill, should scare the heck out of anyone who loves the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. This bill effectively hands over control to the military to arrest, torture and even kill terrorists on American soil. It also allows the military to hold suspected terrorists indefinitely without a trial or due process. This applies to both non-citizens and citizens of the United States!

a. Rural activists see this as a bill that revokes civil liberties. When you combine this bill with the Military Commissions Act of 2006, the subsequent Defense Authorization Act of 2007 combined with Patriot Acts 1 and 2 they already have granted themselves the authority to tag us all as terrorists, strip us of our citizenship, and try us in military tribunals away from the court system.

a. And Senate bill 787 will replace the term "navigable waters" that are subject to such Act with the term "waters of the United States," defined to mean all waters subject to the ebb and flow of the tide, the territorial seas, and all interstate and intrastate waters and their tributaries, including lakes, rivers, streams (including intermittent streams), mudflats, sandflats, wetlands, sloughs, prairie potholes, wet meadows, playa lakes, natural ponds, and all impoundments of the foregoing, to the fullest extent that these waters, or activities affecting them, are subject to the legislative power of Congress under the Constitution.

c. The White House Rural Council is making rules that the BLM and the EPA will determine whether you are making adequate and beneficial use water and resource on your property. If they decide you are not, and they will decide you are not, they will try to make your land under eminent domain. They will say they are offering you a fair market value for your property.

4. Siskiyou County, California is a case in point. It is the size of Vermont, and has 48,000 residents. Since 2000, the government has been tightening the noose. The strategy is the removal of dams on the Klamath River, the largest dam removal in history. The claim is that the coho salmon is endangered and must be protected. But records show that, on average, fewer than five hundred fish return to spawn every year. Areas around the river will be called wetlands, and no livestock or people will be allowed in these areas. Current information suggests little main stem spawning is occurring within the lower and middle portion of the Klamath River. http://www.usbr.gov/mp/kbao/operations/2008_BA/Assessment_latest.pdf (p.150)
a. Fish and Game has admitted that the Klamath Basin is a pilot project. It begins with the water in California, and they will move east and take control of all the waters in the U.S.

b. Other differences that the Californians noted are that the YBFWRB is composed only of entities with governmental authority: counties, cities and tribes. There is no decision-making power allotted to interest groups. In California, voting power granted to interest groups has often confounded project development. siskiyou sups seek salmon solution in Yakama 030211
