The escalating buildup started right after 9/11, but too many people were too busy beating their chests, deafened by the drums of war, and so willing to cheer American military domination of others, blinded by blood lust against a country who did no harm to them, to see the pieces falling so carefully into place. Anyone who dared warn you of the treachery in high places was labelled Anti-American, shunned, ridiculed, harassed, slandered, etc., ...How many people cheered the concept of building a border fence, ...that same fence was never intended to keep people out... it was the prison to keep YOU in.
