President Obama again calls the United States the 'Homeland' - DOUBLESPEAK!
During his live speech regarding Iraq, the president AGAIN referred to the United States as the 'Homeland'. For some reason, every time I hear a politician say that it gives me the creeps, like a flash of foreign armies marching across the plains of Nebraska

I did some looking around, and I guess I'm not the only one. First time I heard it was from Bush, and it's been cropping up a lot more lately.

Does anyone else get a prickling in the back of the neck when you hear it? I'm an American living in the United States, not the 'Homeland'!

I know I'm not the only one. I found this link from back in '02.

The first step in preparing a nation for war is to demonize the enemy and rally support from the public.

The enemy must be viewed by the public as truly horrific. Only then, can the government unleash destruction against another people without backlash from the masses.

Yeah, it sounds vaguely fascist. Neocons started throwing it around during the Clinton Administration, maybe even Bush I.

After awhile, you don't think about it...

The more I think about it, the whole homeland thing is really getting shoved down our throats.

-Homeland Security
-Homeland TV series
-constant references by political leaders

Is this word being setup to influence the population for some planned event?

We have certainly had a few recent examples of 'buzzwords' being used to influence public opinion.

-Weapons of Mass Destruction
-Global Warming
-Domestic Terrorist

I am relatively certain that any event being setup around the 'Homeland' phrase would not be anything good.

In light of some of the other posts, I'm sure 'homeland' security was a very conscious decision. US Security Branch doesn't really fit in with the programming, and think of how much press the name "Homeland Security" has gotten over the last couple of years on mainstream AND alternate media.

It's all part of a plan to reach the goals of an agenda, using conspiracy as the primary enabler. Had to read that twice to make sure I typed it right

And like an earlier poster said, you just get used to hearing it. The only way to resist this kind of thing is to be aware of it. Being able to pick up on the phrases they shove in our faces (but oh so subtly) has proven to be very revealing.

Re: President Obama again calls the United States the 'Homeland' - DOUBLESPEAK!
I have had zero luck finding any recording where 'homeland' was used prior to 9/11/2001.

Agenda 21 was created in June of '92, so if it was linked directly to that one would think I would be able to find something that used the 'homeland' phrase.

After 9/11/2001 the DHS was proposed in June 2002 (exactly 10 years after the Agenda 21 creation) and passed as law in Nov 2002.

Somebody had mentioned Bush Sr. using the phrase, any chance you would remember when that was or what speech?

1987.

"Homeland" was substituted for America/USA in the 1987 television miniseries entitled:

"AMERIKA"

Here is the plot:

"America has been bloodlessly taken over by the Soviet Union, leading to slave-labor camps for some, collaboration for others and rebellion for yet others."

I was hoping for something from US political figures to possibly link to Agenda 21. The way it looks now, it's all very much a part of the 9/11 fiasco to promote the thought process regarding the 'homeland'.

Re: President Obama again calls the United States the 'Homeland' - DOUBLESPEAK!
Had to quote this here from another thread.

The German word for homeland is Heimat.

Heimat was a power word in Hitlers propaganda campaign.

The specific aspects of Heimat — love and attachment to homeland — left the idea vulnerable to easy assimilation into the fascist "blood and soil" literature of the National Socialists since it is relatively easy to add to the positive feelings for the Heimat a rejection of anything foreign, that however is not there necessarily. It was conceived by the Nazis that the volk community is deeply rooted in the land of their heimat through their practice of agriculture and their ancestral lineage going back hundreds and thousands of years. The Third Reich was regarded at the deepest level as the sacred heimat of the unified volk community—the national slogan was One Reich, One Volk, One Führer. Those who were taken to Nazi concentration camps were those who were officially declared by the SS to be "enemies of the volk community" and thus a threat to the integrity and security of the heimat.[3]

Prior to the presidency of George Bush the lesser, the word homeland was not used in the United States. The lesser Bush attempted to use the word in the same way Hitler did in order to promote jingoistic fascism in our country.

The Department of Homeland Security is the American equivalent of the Gestapo.

It was no accident that the Bush regime hired ex-Stasi administrators to help get DHS off the ground.
 Quoting: fnord 54972413


Every time I hear this word 'homeland' I know the context is to forward an agenda that does not bode well for the United States as we know it.

Hear the word - be wary. Prior to the 9/11 attack I was unable to find ANY reference to the USA being referred to as 'the homeland'.

not the Gestapo, that was a national police type org, here the FBI would be equivalent.

the DHS is akin to the RSHA, Reich Main Security Office.
