Belafonte is at it again... somebody buy this man a dictionary or an encyclopedia or something! He calls the Homeland Security Department the modern day Gestapo...
Comparing anything to the Nazis must be done VERY carefully, lest we forget how terrible they were. NOTHING in this nation's history comes close to the Gestapo. To find modern day rivals, you must travel to China or Zimbabwe... nations which have not seemed to arouse Mr. Belafonte's ire. This is entirely typical, though, of liberals: In their mind, the United States is evil simply because they don't like it (because we are not Communist enough? What's the deal? This nation is the most free!), while truly evil and represive nations are not only cool, but get a complete pass when they actually do wrong... even support sometimes.
For example, as Belafonte speaks of arrests without charge, need I remind you of where he just was? He was in Venezuela, a formerly free nation now run by a Communistic dictator... a dictator with whom he schmoozed. Why did he say nothing of the abuses of power there? Instead he attacks the U.S., a land that really has not abused power. The people we are 'arresting' are prisoners of war! What would he have us do with them? Let them go to fight us another day? Is he insane?
Nobody's getting dragged from their homes here. We don't do that... But Belafonte's buddy, Hugo Chavez, sure has...
