concentration camps in the USA


Dave:

Back around Feb 22 this year, there was a story posted about
KBR being awarded a contract to setup "Immigration and Customs
Enforcement facilities in the event of an emergency"

http://lists.elistx.com/archives/interesting-people/200602/msg00240.html

During that time, many people theorized on what these "camps"
would be used for, the purpose of the contract, etc. As you
may recall, there was no talk then of the immigration issues
that have come up in the past couple weeks, only mention of:

        ...establishing temporary detention and processing capabilities
        to expand existing ICE Detention and Removal Operations
        Program facilities in the event of an emergency influx of
        immigrants into the U.S., or to support the rapid development
        of new programs, KBR said.

I guess we know now these this wasn't a risk of influx to the
USA, but rather the "new programs" KBR mentioned (assuming the
dollar doesn't continue it's downward trend).

Looks like these new camps are going to be filled in part like
this:

President Bush, trying to build momentum for an overhaul of the  
nation's immigration laws, is considering plans to shore up the  
Mexican border with National Guard troops paid for by the federal  
government, according to senior administration officials.
