米国、徴兵制度復活法案（“ビッグ・ブラザー付き”）はすでに上程されていた！：Global Research

全訳する余裕が無いので英語のまま貼り付けますが、英語が読めて法律に詳しい人がおられたら、出来ましたらご解説をお願いします。

５月３０日付ですが、Global Research誌は主幹のミシェル・チョスドフスキーの次のような記事を掲載しました。

Restoring the Draft: The Universal National Service Act of 2006
徴兵制復活：２００６年一般国家奉仕活動法案（とでも訳したら良いのだろうか？）

この中でチョスドフスキーは、今年の１月に米国議会にThe Universal National Service Actという名の法案が提出されていることを伝えています。

『（この法案は）次のように要求している：米国の、女性を含む、１８歳から４２歳までのすべての人々に、［２年間の］軍勤務、あるいは国防と祖国安全保障の助成における国民的奉仕活動の期間を勤めること。』

この法案を提出したのがチャールズ・ランジェルという民主党の議員なのですが、このランジェルは「イラク戦争に反対し多くの兵士が貧困層と少数民族の志願兵であることを強調した」議員で、だから（！！）兵役あるいは祖国安全保障（早い話が「テロリスト」狩り）への参加を義務化する（！！）、ということのようです。

さらに

『この法案はビッグ･ブラザーを奨励する。この法案の条項によると、国外の戦場に送られない人々は、国民祖国安全保障部隊（the civilian homeland defense corps）やその他の国民としての義務に従事することになる。それには、地方条例の強制による協力関係の中で制定される国民部隊（the Citizens Corps）、「近隣監視チーム」（"Neighborhood Watch Teams"）、そして「ボランティア警察奉仕活動」（"Volunteer Police Service"）を含む。』

な、なんですか？この「近隣監視チーム」（"Neighborhood Watch Teams"）ってヤツは？！　「ボランティア警察奉仕活動」（"Volunteer Police Service"）ってのは？！

要は「国民相互監視（スパイ）システム」、スターリンも真っ青！

Restoring the Draft: The Universal National Service Act of 2006

by Michel Chossudovsky

May 30, 2006
GlobalResearch.ca

Congressman Charles Rangel, a Democrat (NY), introduced on 14 February 2006 a bill in the US Congress which requires:

"all persons in the United States, including women, between the ages of 18 and 42 to perform a [two year] period of military service or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, and for other purposes."

The bill applies to both US citizens and non-citizens, to men and women. There does not appear to be a provision which would exempt women who are pregnant and/or caring for infants/children in a young age.

While there was some media coverage of Rangel's initiative prior to the formal introduction of the bill, the matter has not been mentioned by the US media since it was introduced in February. There has been a deafening silence: since February 2006, not a single article or editorial has appeared in print on the Universal National Service Act of 2006.

Neither has it been the object of public debate. The bill has been referred to the House Armed Services Committee and the Subcommittee on Military Personnel. Ironically, in previous discussion leading up the bill, Rangel's initiative to restore the draft was described as "an anti-war tactic".

"Rangel opposes war with Iraq and seeks to make the point that many soldiers are volunteers from low-income and minority families. Political leaders, his reasoning goes, would think twice about sending into war the sons and daughters of a more complete cross-section of America. But whether or not one agrees with Rangel's rationale, many Americans would agree that universal service can be a great leveler and a unifying force in society."

Despite Rangel's antiwar resolve, the bill supports Washington's stated objective to extend the war into new frontiers and to ultmately send an entire generation of young Americans to fight an illegal, and unjust war. It is worth noting in this regard that the Neoconservative Project for a New American Century calls for increasing active duty strength from 1.4 to 1.6 million.

The bill also supports Big Brother. Those who are not sent overseas to the war theater would, according to the clauses of the bill, be inducted into the civilian homeland defense corps and other civilian duties, including the Citizens Corps, the "Neighborhood Watch Teams" and the "Volunteer Police Service" established in partnership with local law enforcement.
(see http://www.citizencorps.gov/pdf/council.pdf )

While there is at present significant opposition to the bill on both sides of the House, the US military is overextended and lacks the manpower to carry out its global war agenda. This shortage of military personnel is blatantly obvious in Iraq, where the occupation forces are meeting fierce resistance.

The situation regarding the draft could also change if the war were to be extended into Iran. In which case, the substance of this bill could indeed be adopted to meet the manpower requirements of the US military.

History of the Bill

This is the second time Rep. Charles Rangel introduces his controversial bill.

In January 2003, HR 163 was submitted in the House.

It was voted upon and defeated in the House in October 2003, on the grounds that it had not been sent for committee hearings. However, it was suggested at the time that the Republican-controlled House wanted to defeat the bill, to squash rumors that Bush would reintroduce the draft if reelected.

"In spite of adamant denial of draft rumors, Internet and campus campaigners had trumpeted the bill as evidence of a "secret plan" to reinstate the draft in case President Bush is re-elected."
