Police Fixated Threat Assessment Centre (FTAC)
SECRET POLICE UNIT NOW OPERATING

The UK government has established a secretive new police unit a la George Orwell
with the powers to detain anyone for any length of time without any due process.
The shadowy unit called the Fixated Threat Assessment Centre (FTAC) was covertly
established in 2006. The unit includes the services of police psychiatrists.
Why? For one very good reason, and one reason only: psychiatrists operate above
the law. They can detain ANYONE AT ANY TIME AND FOR NO MORE REASON THAN THEIR
STATED OPINION THAT THE PERSON MAY BE A DANGER TO THEMSELVES OR TO OTHERS.
Once forcibly detained by a psychiatrist a person can be legally locked away
forever and subjected to despicable treatments such as psychotropic drug
regimes, lobotomies and electric shocking of the brain. They are not entitled to
a trial of any sort, they need face no criminal charges.
A person incarcerated by a psychiatrist has no rights whatsoever. Even Stalin
had to produce his prisoners in court eventually. The miserable occupants of
Guantanamo retain the certainty that one day they will face justice, or at least
that they will have their day in court; the occupants of psychiatric prisons
have no such comfort.
It is a thin line that separates a rule of law democracy from a totalitarian
dictatorship. The FTAC crosses that line. For many years our individual freedoms
have been incrementally cut away. The FTAC rips the flesh off freedom and lays
bare the bones of repression for all decent and honest people to see. The FTAC
represents nothing less that the repeal of Habeas Corpus with its right of trial
and its protection from arbitrary state detention.
A Writ of Habeas Corpus orders that a prisoner is to be brought before a court
so that the court can then determine whether that person is serving a lawful
sentence or should be released from custody. The prisoner, or someone acting on
behalf of the prisoner if he/she is being held incommunicado can petition the
court or an individual judge for a Writ of Habeas Corpus.
The justification for the extreme powers of FTAC is of course terrorism.
Experience shows that the powers of the FTAC will be quickly exercised in a far
wider sphere than even the most sceptical imagine. Once a law is enacted the
very fact of its existence gives it respectability and thus acceptability.
For years society casually turned a blind eye to the total lack of Human Rights
for anyone labelled mentally ill, never dreaming that the definition might one
day be widened sufficiently to cover not only themselves, but everyone who may
for any reason be deemed a threat by those in authority.
In the twenty-first century mental illness is presumed to be the normal
circumstance and sanity deemed to exist only after treatment by a psychiatrist.
We live in a nightmare world that is starting to exceed the imaginings of even
George Orwell.
Fixated Threat Assessment Centre (FTAC) tasked to intimidate critics of Jacqui
Smith?
The UKColumn was shocked to learn that a member of the public, who wrote letters
and emails calling the Home Secretary a communist and criticising her for
creating a police state, has been summoned for an interview with his GP. The
individual, who wishes to remain anonymous, informed the Column that he was
recently surprised to receive a call from his GP asking him to attend the
surgery.
Once in front of his doctor, Mr X was stunned to be told that the GP had
received a letter from the highly secretive Fixated Threat Assessment Centre (FTAC)
following instructions from the Home Secretary herself. Although embarrassed,
the GP understood from the communication that he was required to interview Mr X
to establish his state of mind.
The implications of this incident are extremely serious, as they suggest that
anyone who dares to criticise the Home Secretary, or perhaps even the government
itself, will be regarded as mentally ill. Clearly for Mr X, Smith’s actions were
intended to be a warning and the first step in attempting to brand him mentally
ill.””””
Are the British people implicit in all of this? Or are they just tolerating it,
helplessly? The establishment, that most people think, is represented by their
choice of people in an election, can, on the contrary, enforce any particular
political points and agenda, onto the people deceptively, and even covertly.
This is a system and an agenda that is being attempted to be enforced in various
other countries around the world.
Afghanistan is one of these countries. They will have their elections next
month, and Britain is literally dying to give them some of their Talmudic Jewish
paedomasonic values in the process. Shouldn’t the Afghan people resist their
totally illegal occupying enemies, with all powers they have at their disposal?
Or are we going to see culture after culture dominated, altered, and turned into
another Hollywood global image of Westernised world dominating cultures; like
the High Streets of Britain, with all the same shops in all the towns, and a
McDonalds on every corner.
