This was just going to be a comment reply, but I think I'd like to discuss it here.
I'm new to the whole, conspiracy thing, but I've seen some patterns and I'd just like to flesh them out for my own piece of mind.
The preface to this post is how the US has always given the US people a common enemy so they can put on this sort of security theater and continue to take rights from the citizens all in the name of security.
I honestly don't think it's important to elaborate on that too much to you guys.
This theory started after watching the video posted in this thread.
One commenter posted an explanation, which lead me to this video here which explains the biggest terrorist threat in the US, which turns out to be right wing anti-government crazy people.
These people have always existed, but if we shift our focus from Muslims to these people, because these people are anti-government and are worried about guns being taken away and all that - what will end up happening is that the government will pass all these laws to combat this. Eventually speaking out against the government will be illegal, anything anti-government will be illegal.
Just thinking that after this "common enemy" has come and gone, the next one won't be communists again or pedophiles or jews or anything like that. Just anti-government extremists, which will eventually evolve into our common enemy being anybody who is anti-government.

Yeah, the war on walmart shoppers is a dead end. Obama fucked up with trying to push that one over on the people. It was a serious political and ideological blunder. I used to work for Brent Scowcroft back in the day. That guy was a political genius and got shit done. This new batch of politifags are nitwits. Its been like watching amateur hour for six years straight.
Luckily, not everyone in the administration is as dumb as the War on Walmart Shoppers dipshits. Right now they're preparing a local war against Narco Mexican lefty terrorists. The police unions have been hurt bad by the sweep of marijuana softening. They are desperate to hold onto their tanks. For-profit prisons are getting crunched too. Hell, there's a ready made army of latin gang members with tight military-like formations already in our prison system. I wouldn't be suprised if the opening attack was a mass arming and breakout of a big penitentiary with all the latinos getting AKs, RPGs, and sweeping out through central California. That is why the most likely next enemy will be Mexican drug gangs that have "infiltrated" the US. Democrats can act like they care about average and poor immigrants. Republicans can act tough on crime and the big defenders of the home front. And the Military Industrial Complex (MIC) can continue making bank selling police and National Guard troops (an historically under-served market for the MIC. National Guard Armories are desperate to have logistics thrown their way to the tune of several hundred billion dollars). Nothing like modernizing the National Gaurd with posh new weapon systems to make a quick buck. Put your bets on local narco terrorists as the next big thing. You heard it here first.

If you wind up being right, I'll pool everything I have into building a rocket and then fuck this ball of rock, I'll live in a sleeping bag in my greenhouse on the moon
