THE APPARATUS OF OCCUPATION

"Whether the mask is labelled Fascism, Democracy, or Dictatorship of the Proletariat, our great adversary remains the apparatus-the bureaucracy, the police, the military. Not the one facing us across the frontiers or the battlelines, which is not so much our enemy as our brothers' enemy, but the one that calls itself our protector and makes us its slaves. No matter what the circumstances, the worst betrayal will always be too subordinate ourselves to this Apparatus, and to trample underfoot, in its service, all human values in ourselves and in others."

Simone Well i in the magazine Politics in 1945. Well was a French philosopher and activist during the thirties to the fifties.

The great majority of our population lives within one hundred miles of a national border or a coastline. Especially if you throw in the Great Lakes. When will that other army of occupation, the immigration service, move from asking everyone on a bus for their papers and demand that everyone show their papers?
