Is the Department of Homeland Security Obama’s Gestapo?

by

DHS Gestapo
When Adolf Hitler made his rise to power, he established the Secret State Police in 1934, headed by Heinrich Himmler.  The German name for them is Geheime Staatspolizei.  Taking the bolded and underlined letters from the newly formed entity you get the more familiar term, Gestapo.
The role of the Gestapo was to spy on the German people and identify any and all opposition to Hitler’s Third Reich.  They were given full authority to investigate and report or suspect cases of criminal attacks against the Nazi Party along with cases of sabotage, espionage and treason.  What made them so deadly and sinister was that they were also given authority to act without any judicial oversight.  They became the prosecutor, judge, jury and executioner of anyone that stood in Hitler’s way.
The Gestapo was given a sizeable budget and access to all the weapons, ammunitions and spying devices they wanted.  Once they established their dark reputation, they used all of those devices and weapons far too frequently.  Within a few years, no one dared to say or do anything that might be considered critical of the Nazi Party and its leaders.  If they did, the Gestapo or its sister agency, the SS (Security Service) moved in and took care of the alleged problem.

Eighty years later, Barak Obama talks about creating a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, strong and as well-funded as the US military.  In 2008, Obama talked about his desire to create his civilian army, but many of the references to that speech have mysteriously disappeared.

Joseph Farah of WND also points out that the concept of a civilian national security force seems to be the idea of Robert Gates, then Secretary of Defense under President George W. Bush.  Using Gates’ idea for the civilian force, it was no surprise to some that Obama kept him on as his Secretary of Defense.
Under Obama’s supervision, the Department of Homeland Security has been purchasing thousands of assault weapons, over a billion rounds of ammunition, of which 450 million are hollow-points, bulletproof vests, riot gear, bullet-proof traffic stops and other equipment one would readily associate with an army.  Nearly 200,000 rounds of ammunition are specifically designed for sniper rifles.  There are also plans to place 30,000 drones in our skies to spy on us.
If that makes you nervous, the Obama administration has also given approval for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to purchase 46,000 rounds of .40 caliber hollow points.  Supposedly, they were purchased for NOAA’s Fisheries Office of Law Enforcement.
