	Fortress America by William Greider
		America is experiencing a deep confusion of purpose at this moment of history, holding on to a past that is defunct, but unable to imagine a different future.
		Fortress America remains mobilized to fight the big one but justifies itself now with vague threat scenarios that envision fighting two wars at once, twin regional conflicts that will be smaller in scale but simultaneous.
		America's head start in selling arms to the new NATO members helps explain why the other major allies are unenthused about paying for the alliance's expansion-a burden variously estimated from $z7 billion to $I25 billion.

	Russia v
		The only way to obtain information as sensitive as that laid out in “Fortress Americas ”, is to have direct or indirect access to a disgruntled source or sources at the very top of the Zionist chain of command; access which I proved existed back in January 2002.
		As you will read later in this multi-part Fortress Americas report, some of the first targets of the Zionist hunter-killer teams in North and South America will be prominent Jews, who do not see eye-to-eye with their crazed Zionist brethren, thus rendering them higher priority targets than even the leaders of various hostile American militias.
		In very short order, America farmed out some important SDI contracts to British defense companies, who were known to be leading lights in certain areas absolutely critical to the success of the desired “one true Zion” missile shield.

		Fortressing off America directly opposes the entire premice of what America stands for, what we were built on.
		Remember, in Fortress America we don't have 1000 dead Americans in Iraq right now and thousands of others could be with their families right now while the Iraqis rot under the thumb of Saddam.

	TCS Daily - The Retreat to Fortress America
		Like the decision to establish a gated community, this assumes that the problems in the shabby neighborhoods beyond the gates -- the neighborhoods where the most serious problems originate -- are not worthy of attention or resources.
		The nominee's lack of clarity regarding pro-democratic and pro-freedom principles hobbles his party's theme of "two Americas." The noble ideal of one America is reduced to one America within two worlds -- worlds separate and unequal.
		In this vision of a world divided, the keepers of Fortress America regard meaningful democracy as an absolute necessity for themselves.

	AlterNet: Fortress America
		The countries I've toured are a literal A to Z, as I road-tripped from coast-to-coast in America and hiked through the mountains of Zimbabwe.
		And now, both within and without our nation, prospects for mind-expanding travel are narrowing to the aperture of a pin, or perhaps to the invisible width of a bit of data.
		They add to the already rampant paranoia that the world is merely a dangerous (and not also a wondrous) place and the only safe haven is a gated community within a shuttered nation.

	Fortress America
		The phenomenon of walled cities and gated communities is a dramatic manifestation of a new fortress mentality growing in America.
		Americans of all classes are forting up, attempting to secure the value of their houses, reduce or escape from the impact of crime, and find neighbors who share their sense of the good life.
		The new fortress developments are predominantly suburban, with a growing number of urban inner-city counterparts.

	The American Spectator
		Freedom isn't incompatible with fortress life; the latter, indeed, was once a passable practical synonym for the former.
		Liberal critics of the Republican administration love throwing around this phrase "Fortress America." No two users of the term mean the same thing by it: They may be criticizing intensified scrutiny of foreign travelers, or half-hearted efforts to shore up the Mexican border, or even crackdowns on anarchist protesters at international summit meetings.
		The term "Fortress America" was used by America Firsters in the years preceding Pearl Harbor -- the "isolationists," opposed to enmeshing the Republic in foreign wars, who spoke for an overwhelming majority of the American populace until the moment American territory was attacked, and who were rubbished as cryptofascists afterward.

	IRR: Fortress America
		As America plunges into a period of imperialist expansion, immigrant communities - particularly of Middle-Eastern and South Asian descent - have been caught in the teeth of a new domestic totalitarianism.
		In the process, America has moved from a nation that sought to exploit and integrate immigrant labour, to one that seeks to eradicate it, however impractical that may be for the US economy.
		But for those foreigners who are already resident in America, the authorities have conducted a series of registration programmes, the aim of which is to track all foreign nationals by 2005.

		Thanks to its advanced technologies, America designed tanks, planes, ships, and missiles that were far more versatile and precise (also more expensive) than the clunkier mass-produced weapons fielded by the Soviets in larger numbers.

		The result is a fun air combat game that doesn't simulate much but should still provide the casual jet pilot with many hours of bandit hunting.
		The premise behind JetFighter IV is that an alliance between Russia, China, and North Korea (called "The Coalition") has been formed to challenge America's supremacy as the world's only superpower.

		In their efforts to find a safe, quiet, traffic- and crime-free place to live, more and more Americans are turning to gated communities--self-enclosed developments barricaded off from surrounding neighborhoods, often using security guards to prevent intruders and screen visitors, sometimes even privatizing services traditionally left to local government.

		Like Buchanan, they bemoan the "dumbing down of America" by immigrants, but their solution to our failed immigration policy is to hire more dumb government agents and more dumb federal agencies, so that some of the dumbest members of society end up with all the guns and authority over the rest of us.
		Don't be swayed by the shrill voices of those who urge the creation of Fortress America.
		It's time to get real on immigration and admit that the current policy is a deadly and costly failure that must be replaced with policies based upon open markets and freedom – not fortresses and fear.

		Buchanan thinks foreign aid is “the looting of America for the construction of the New World Order.” He is proudly protectionist and he fears that Hispanic immigration threatens not only America's survival as one nation but also Republican dominance of American politics, since Latinos usually vote Democrat.
		He argues that the costs of immigration outweigh the benefits: immigrants' children must be schooled at taxpayers' expense, and their willingness to work for a pittance drags down the wages of unskilled Americans.
		He thinks that America's borders could be secured “relatively easily” and at “minimal cost” by building hundreds of miles of fences and deploying troops to patrol them (which would be good training, he says), and by punishing firms that employ illegals.

		This is not Ronald Reagan’s view of America as a “shining city on a hill.” It is the chauvinist conservatism usually associated with the European right.
		America has been exemplary in its ability to assimilate a wide range of races, cultures, and ideology, more thoroughly than any current or historical society.

	Guardian Unlimited \| US elections 2004 \| Timothy Garton Ash: Fortress America
		"God bless America," wrote WH Auden, "so large, so friendly and so rich." And American hyperpower, by contrast with the one-dimensional superpower of the Soviet Union, has always depended on having all three dimensions: military, economic and "soft".
		In this test, countries are rated by the number of people outside who want to get into them, divided by the number of people inside who want to get out.
		Yet its overall attractiveness surely has been diminished, not just by such bureaucratic procedures, but by Guantánamo, by Iraq, by a certain harsh, militarist, nationalist approach to world affairs, and by a mistaken belief that the "war on terror" can be won mainly, if not solely, by military, intelligence and police means.
