Notice: Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to Certain Terrorist Attacks

 

 

Consistent with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency I declared on September 14, 2001, in Proclamation 7463, with respect to the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, New York, New York, the Pentagon, and aboard United Airlines flight 93, and the continuing and immediate threat of further attacks on the United States.

Because the terrorist threat continues, the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, and the powers and authorities adopted to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 14, 2008. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an additional year the national emergency I declared on September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.

GEORGE W. BUSH

THE WHITE HOUSE,

August 28, 2008.

Does this mean that the USA has been under martial law, since 2001? Or just de-facto fascism? (zioconitis)

This means that the 'Game' is going to extra innings with a splat to end off the killing spree of American power quests.

Russia may just have to DO stuff to keep this bunch from getting too much more DEADLY in our world.

I smell a serious warning slap coming to the arrogant power crazy diaper eaters stinking up the white house.

Times a wasting away from you all America.

First you take D.C. Then you take New York (:
