Citizen Spy Recruitment Program Launches in U.S. Hotels



Activist Post

Homeland Security has been working closely with hotels on many levels as private partners in the war on terror, as part of the expanding If You See Something, Say Something program.  Manuals such as the 84-page, Protective Measures Guide for the U.S. Lodging Industry (pdf) have been sent out to teach owners and staff how to properly spot potential terrorists.  Typical suspicious behavior includes paying with cash and "insisting on privacy" among a plethora of other dangers.

As if wasn't bad enough that hotel guests are secretly being assessed by untrained intelligence assets of Homeland Security, now guests are to be subjected to psy-op recruitment techniques via their TV sets in major hotels such as "Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Holiday Inn and other hotels in theUSA," according to an article published in the travel section of USA TODAY.

It is only a 15-second public service announcement, but follows similar PSA programming that aims to create fearful masses willing to call authorities over the flimsiest of suspicious activities, such as the innocuous example below.


This short message will be included with many others in the constant rotation for hotel guests to become further acclimated to being part of the snitch culture. Citizen spies are a cornerstone of all totalitarian regimes.  Now, it seems that with the addition of 5,400 hotels to the Homeland Security takeover of hearts and minds, it is impossible to deny that modern-day America has become another shining example of imperial ambitions turning upon itself.
